A beautiful hotel and in a wonderful location to see Estoril. Our room was excellent with all the amenities you could ask for. The breakfast was fabulous and even included champagne. The hotel bar restaurant however lacked in service but food was ok. Also great staff. This is a grand old European hotel experience. Would recommend to anyone.
