This was a great place for our family in the historic center. My boys loved running up and down the cobbled lanes around the house — and the cat house just around the corner was a big hit. It was easy getting to the various sites around Sintra. There is a restaurant underneath, but it closed every night at 6:30, so we had no issue with noise. We were there in February and it got a bit chilly in the evenings, so I’d suggest warm pajamas. But I’m sure spring, summer, and fall that’s not a problem! We had a great experience here.
