Comfortable hotel in historic building / setting

The Pousada Cascais is an excellent hotel. Such a fascinating, historic building and an excellent location just s short walk from the restaurants and bars of Cascais. Staff are also really friendly and helpful. This is our second visit and we’ll definitely be coming back.

Great hotel!

Loved the hotel! Service was excellent. The only criticism we have is that there is zero signage - we circled three times before we finally stopped a police officer to help us.

Great staff complementing an excellent hotel option in the Cascais city center. Being next to the Marina, with many shops and restaurants is a plus. Parking nearby is not expensive for longer stays.

Great location for Ironman Cascais. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. They helped with bike storage, allowed bikes in rooms, and opened breakfast early so athletes could eat before the competition.

A highlight of the stay was the staff. We found the staff very welcoming and helpful from check in to suggestions on places to see during our stay to help with restaurants reservations to breakfast. They are a credit to the hotel and Cascais.

Pestana Cascais Stay

Very enjoyable stay. The hotel is ideally located in Cascais with beaches, major attractions and restaurants within 15-20 minute walk. Hotel design is quite unique given it’s in the old castle. Breakfast good with great views over the marina (watch for seagulls wanting your food though!) As other reviewers have noted, the corridors are long and some of rooms have steps leading to them - not an issue for me, but could be for those with any mobility considerations. Overall recommend this hotel.
