The location of the lodging is great! Just about a block from the Sintra train station and close to both the new city (with a big grocery store) and the old city with all the magic. Check-in was easy, and they held my bags for me until the room was fully cleaned. The kitchen was well stocked and kept clean; the provided reakfast was basic but good. The shared bathrooms were clean.

The room got a bit cold at night, but a heater was provided in the room which helped immensely. The shared bathrooms were also cold and there was only 1 on the upper floor so I often had to walk downstairs to one of the other bathrooms.

Barbara was very friendly, and she helped us by keeping our luggage until check-in time. She also showed us around. Complimentary tea and very good wifi. The property was very clean. Breakfast was nice. It's in a good location. 20min walk to city center. Less than 10 min walk to train station. There are restaurants and bakeries in walking distance. G Room had good natural sunlight. My daughter absolutely loved it here.

Our room door was a little hard to open and close. Since the train station is nearby I was woken up by the noise of the train several times during my sleep. Even though there are 2 bathrooms. In the morning, when guests are getting ready, it might be hard to find an available bathroom.

The train station is some 3 min away. Enjoyed the old building the hotel is located in: it is cosy, old style and very natural. Was great to be inside regardless of the weather. The social kitchen is a benefit to prepare your own food, though I didn't use it much. You can eat outside, too, relaxing in a lushy garden.

Only one AC socket. Too dark in the bathrooms. The bed by the window in "Penedo dos Ovos" was a bit wobbling, probably overused by the "activities" of earlier guests, I recommend to check it out. The breakfast was too generic (the basic omelette would improve it). The staff does not speak English, which made the check-out too long. Besides, the lady responsible for it prioritised the breakfast of other guests ignoring that I was in a hurry. I also don't understand why I should have filled in a lot of confidential information on check-out, e.g. nationality, ID card and who had issued it.

Location from train station & local buses for sightseeing palaces is perfect! House & gardens gave character & charm. You have facilities to prepare & refrigerate packed lunch for sightseeing (shop Minipreço 10mins walk). Barbara was a great host & suggested local bus 1253 to visit Boca de Roca as I was staying 2nights & had time to visit coastal spot for couple of hours. Thank you! A++

Was advance aware of sharing bathroom, not a problem but be aware could be upto x10 of you using one upstairs bathroom & waiting for shower/toilet whilst having arranged breakfast slot & Pena palace timed entry schedule. Would suggest using downstairs bathroom that doesn't get as much use.

We love this house-coziness, interior, beautiful garden. Room was cozy. Location is very near to the center. Seeing castle from our room was making romantic atmosphere and it felt magical.

Bathrooms could be renovated. I’m talking especially about shower, it’s very old and rusty. I personally love the vibe and style that they are trying to keep but it’s time to renovate some shower parts. As well one side of the garden were full of chairs which is not making some nice view, instead it could be some more flowers 🙏

Perfect location. Lovely staff. A lovely place with a vintage touch which is what I really love about it. It has a beautiful view and a beautiful garden. Breakfast was simple but I had everything I wanted to eat so it was satisfying. I had a double room and it was pretty in a vintage way.

My only disappointment is the shower. I love vintage and re-using old things but it doesn’t have to go too far as not repairing or maintaining them — the shower arms were all broken making it really difficult to shower properly.

We loved the location of this property. We were able to get to and from from the town centre and train station easily. Barbara, the hostess, was very accommodating to us. She let us check in early and she prepared an excellent early morning breakfast for us on the day we left. Although the room was small, it was comfortable, and having our own bathroom was nice. We would recommend Lanui guesthouse when staying in Sintra.

Barbara and the wonderful breakfast spread were great! The location was pretty easy to find. Although parking was further than we'd hoped for, our host provided us a link to a free place to park.

One bathroom upstairs for many guests was insufficient for us all; perhaps a re-design for an extra sink and/or toilet would be much appreciated. I didn't receive my arrival instructions until after I arrived and at that, a French guest had to help because the key box and code were not correct, so the guest had to help us get a different room. Especially at night, there is almost NO light, so climbing 2 flights of stone stairs in the dark with overhanging bushes and plants on both sides of the lowest staircase made the entry extremely rough. Some solar dusk-to-dawn or motion-sensor lights would've greatly helped. Having that many guests in one bathroom upstairs makes any bathroom very hard to keep clean.

First of all, the location is amazing, so close to the train station. The house is beautiful and we were lucky and we could see the Moorish Castle from our window. The garden is amazing, so traditional and truly feeling like a home. The breakfast was fantastic, way better than expected, it had so many options. The bathrooms were clean, the room was clean. The staff was extremely helpful and the check in process was easy. They are very communicative and they can adjust things according to your needs, it was lovely!

Maybe the throw-in pillows on the beds are not needed, they didn't feel as freshly clean as the rest of the bedroom.

Nice house on a quiet side street near all transportation. On street paid 8-20hour parking. Small rooms but large common area and breakfast room. Very nice English speaking Brazilian Hostess. Super helpful.all Round.

Noone was there when we arrived but another guest let us in. Bewate of long shuttle bus ride to the Pena palace midday. It took us over 1 hour for the 10 minute trip due to crazy traffic. We missed our ticketed time slot but they let us in after all.
