This hotel was a dream. It’s was quiet and comfy. Bed was great. Breakfast was wonderful. When I checked out in the middle of the night for an early flight the person at the desk handed me a sack lunch/breakfast! I almost cried! Truly the best!

The boutique hotel is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and features modern infrastructure. It is very comfortable, elegant, and in a great location. The receptionist, Beatriz, was exceptionally polite. She showed me all the common areas and shared the hotel’s history in a very engaging way. I only spent one night here, but I’m already considering returning for another stay so I can visit more of the nearby castles. By the way, breakfast was excellent and the views were amazing.

This charming historic hotel is full of character and history, yet it is exceptionally well maintained and spotless throughout. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. The location is excellent for exploring Sintra, with easy access to the town's main attractions while still offering a peaceful atmosphere. Staying here felt like stepping back in time and experiencing a piece of Sintra's rich history. The breakfast was also outstanding—one of the best I had during my trip. I would highly recommend Lawrence's Hotel to anyone visiting Sintra. It is a truly special place to stay.

Oldest hotel in Portugal I am told. The location can't be beat. The hotel offers a very quaint historical experience with basic modern amenities. The desk staff is very accommodating. It was some of the best I have experienced. Parking is a tough issue; but the staff helped tremendously. Sintra is not a town for cars. Price was very reasonable. I would stay again.

The location is excellent. Short walking distance to the historic center The hotel is small, quaint but a bit old and run down. I had to ask for the bellboys to help with our luggage, and to have our room cleaned. Breakfast was just adequate. There's convenient self-parking right in front of the hotel which is nice. The hotel is expensive for what you get.
