Pergola Boutique Hotel

My wife and I stayed at The Pergola for eight nights. A beautiful hotel, situated in the centre of Cascais, five minutes from the many beaches,restaurants and shops. The hotel itself is stunning and the gardens and exquisite. The staff were superb and made our stay so enjoyable. If you want to explore Lisbon ,Sinatra, Estroil,Belem and the surrounding area, this is a perfect base.The train station is five minute walk from the hotel. We had one meal in the restaurant at the hotel and it was excellent. When staying, ensure you book in advance for the restaurant, as it is not owned by the hotel and it is extremely popular with both locals and other visitors. Finally, a special mention to Gonçalo and Anas at reception. These two guys were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they add so much to this hotel experience. Overall, a five star experience

You have to stay here! It’s truly a one-of-a-kind experience. When you walk into the gardens, it’s such a relaxing experience. Each room is unique. Try to choose one to the front. They have the best views. Keep in mind there is no elevator, and this was originally a home 100 years ago. The marble steps add to its charm. Please tell the staff I said hello. They made the experience all the better.

Lovely boutique hotel in a great location. The entrance through the garden with the alfresco dining on one side. The older rooms are spacious and the new ones compact but comfortable. We received great care and attention from Gonçalo who was so helpful and professional throughout our stay. The whole team were excellent and we enjoyed getting excellent advice from your sommelier.

We spent four weeks in The Pergola boutique hotel in August and into early September 2023 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house and garden (which was in full bloom and filled with colour during our stay) has a unique old world boujee romantic feel, and the history of the house reinforces this sense. It is amazing to see the number of passers-by stop to look and take pictures of the garden and house. This is actually how we discovered this hotel when in Cascais earlier in the year. My sense is this spot will be loved by nearly all and may be disliked by one or two depending on your expectations and experience during your stay… we had seen one or two reviews where others did not have as enjoyable a stay as we have had. As noted it is a very unique boutique hotel, see more below. The staff have a lovely relaxed manner and are very helpful. The breakfast in the garden restaurant is really nice and quite healthy but different (no rashers, sausages or meat). It was different to what we were used to and expecting but we really enjoyed it. The following are some practical notes on our stay which may be helpful: 1. The house is situated on a quiet street in the centre of the town and only a couple of minutes to the waterfront, beach, lots of restaurants, ice cream parlours and coffee shops (… the coffee shop across the road, Fabrica, has great coffee). 2. The reception team, Nadia, Gaston and Anas, led by Gonçalo are all very helpful. Equally, the team who run the restaurant at breakfast, Nathanie, Nuno and Jorge are very attentive and obliging. Housekeeping are also friendly and efficient. 3. Our room was located on the first floor overlooking the garden for most of our stay, about 3 ½ weeks. We really loved the room. We did not experience any particular problems with noise from the garden restaurant but note other reviews had mentioned this. This is not saying it was not a problem for these people, it simply was not an issue for us. The last few days of our stay were on a room on the second floor and that was also nice and very quiet (it was quieter than the first-floor room, but as mentioned we did not have any issues on the first floor at the front of the house albeit it was not directly above the restaurant). 4. The train to Lisbon is 2/3 mins walk up the road, maybe closer. Lisbon is a lovely city and great to travel into and explore. 5. There is a Cascais stand in the road behind the house where you can rent push bikes for about €6 a day (August 2023). 6. There is a large Auchan (hypermarket) within 5/10 min walk. This, with the Pingo Doce express store located in the train station, are very useful resources if you need anything. 7. The WiFi was excellent. We needed to use it for work one or two days and for some streaming and it was flawless. 8. The rooms have no TV. That was fine for us, we rarely use TV’s in hotels or when away. 9. The hotel has no lifts. If you have mobility issues you may have challenges with this hot

A beautiful property nestled on a lovely street. Great management team on duty to welcome arriving guests. Rooms are spacious and very clean, could not be a better location, served breakfast with experienced and well trained staff… you’ll be sorry if you choose another hotel!

The hotel/restaurant has recently went through some renovations over the winter. Results: 5 STAR Upon arrival through secured entry gate you are immediately emersed in the sheer beauty of the hotel and its garden. When we checked in, there was a mix-up on the "specific" room we reserved (6 months prior). However, the issue was quickly resolved with the help of Marie and Carlos, the manager who apologized and did not try and make excuses, but he did explain how their error had occurred on their end. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Marie who went above and beyond in every possible way to make our stay fabulous. This included helping carry and then move our luggage, recommendations, hailing taxi and helping with luggage on the day of our departure. THANK YOU. Our spacious room was gorgeous and had a nice terrace overlooking the garden. Daily breakfast in the garden, during our 2 night stay, was plentiful and delicious. We would nightly stop at their newly created bar and be greeted by the young and personable bartender who was wise beyond his years. Our only disappointment might be we did not stay longer and have dinner in "Bougain" their restaurant with its fabulous setting. We could go on and on about the Pergola House but instead hurry up and book your room. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
