Reviews for Pestana Cidadela Cascais Pousada & Art Hotel
Thank you to the whole teamfor making our stay at the Pestana such a memorable one. The service was impeccable and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. The hotel is beautiful and in a great location. The staff were wonderfully attentive and helpful especially Vera. Our holiday in Cascais and staying at the Pestana will be a trip we will all remember for a long time. Our son didn't want to come home.

Lovely Hotel with fabulous staff.
We had a wonderful stay. Our room was very spacious, spotlessly ckean and comfortable and the breakfasts were delicious. The staff at reception, bar and pool were all very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is near all the amenities of the town however is very quiet at night. We had a great night’s sleep and will definitely return.

The hotel is beautiful and was in a perfect position for what we wanted. Minutes walk to the beach, marina, city centre… all the staff were so helpful. Yoga on a Saturday morning at 9am was perfect ! We had a wonderful time. We will return…………..

Quiet, stylish, comfortable hotel in great location
An elegant, stylish and romantic hotel set amongst the quiet magnificence of the castle, away from the busy tourist area but within walking distance of it. The plaza is a beautiful companion to the hotel and a pleasure to visit with the bookshops, arts and crafts, galleries and a delightful restaurant. The staff is very friendly and efficient and the breakfast is fabulous. Very comfortable and clean rooms and the two pools in contrasting locations offer great relaxation. The host Vera is first class and the waiting staff such as Hasan and Arturo Jnr always welcome you with big smiles. I also had a first class massage from Breno and my companion had an equally great one from Erica. Highly recommended hotel and great value.

Don't give this place your money!
This property has a nice reception area, but that's where it ends. The rooms on the zero floor feel like walking into a dungeon. That's okay if you like dungeons, but this dungeon smells like dog urine and has ants. If you are familiar with the term "lipstick on a pig", well the lobby is the lipstick. The staff was fine, but the accommodations were quite disturbing. One last addition, housekeeping left the window open (I'm assuming they knew the smell was wrong) only allowing flies to enter to make the situation even worse. DON'T GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR MONEY!
