This hotel is undergoing upgrade and the completed areas look great. E. G. Breakfast room on 8th floor with great views of the beach. Reception and lobby bar all look good and nice new furniture. Disappointed that the bar wasn’t open so apart from breakfast there was no access to refreshments while sitting at the nice clean and comfortable pool area. Supermarket is a short walk to the riviera hotel centre to stock up on snacks and refreshments. The square behind the hotel has a lovely selection of cafes and the locals are there too. The underpass makes beach access easy as it’s opposite the hotel to the right. Beach is fabulous. Check which room you are allocated as the end rooms do not have a sea view. All had comfortable bed and plenty of storage. Super clean bathroom. We changed after one night and had to pay an extra 10euros per night. Definitely a convenient hotel for Lisbon, airport, Cascais and sintra. Local Ubers were great and train station was a short walk.

This lovely hotel is just minutes away from the beach and boasts a lovely pool. While the rooms could use an upgrade, a seaview room offers a great view. There’s a service by the pool, but the restaurant is unfortunately closed due to refurbishment. However, there are plenty of other places to eat nearby.

A Disappointing Stay in a Severely Outdated Hotel I typically try to find the positives in any place I stay, but unfortunately, my experience at this hotel was overwhelmingly negative. From the moment I walked in, it was clear that this building—while historic at 108 years old—has not been maintained properly or updated in what feels like decades. The room had a strong, musty odor that never went away. The carpet was stained and reeked of mildew, and there was visible mold growing on the ceiling—a serious health concern. The air conditioning didn’t work, and with no proper ventilation, the room felt stuffy and uncomfortable at all times. Basic amenities were either broken or missing: the hairdryer was non-functional, the door lock was damaged, making it hard to feel safe, and the elevator was out of order, which meant lugging bags up several flights of stairs. The bathroom was rusty, outdated, and honestly felt unhygienic. The pool was dirty and uninviting, and clearly not maintained. Common areas felt neglected, and the entire building shows its age—badly. Old can be charming, but this place is simply falling apart. It needs a major, major renovation from top to bottom. Sadly, the photos online were misleading, and this was not the relaxing or comfortable stay I had hoped for. I would not recommend this hotel until significant improvements are made.

It needs remodeling urgently

Good location, close to basic stores and to the beach, but the rooms are very old, not well maintained, small and missing basic things (like a door tag). The breakfast room view is great and the quality of the food as well, just not sure if it makes up for a loud ac, squeaky bed and bad pillows.

What we liked best -- bathtub -- powerful shower faucet (which I miss already) and soaker tub - used both daily. Also liked balcony view of beach. Great breakfast - eggs, breads/pastries, fruit, yoghurt, cereal, cheese, crepes, toppings of chia and seeds, etc. Helpful staff, especially front desk. 5 minutes walk to beach, restaurants, grocery shops, bank, pharmacy, etc. What I didn't like -- need to lobby vacuum carpet more frequently, doors jammed (bathroom and balcony) so we just left ajar all the time, tell smokers to stand far away from doors on the outside Overall, happy and safe experience.

No bar or lounge option on top floor or lobby. No snack bar or bar at pool, shade available around pool. Two of the front doors broken and One elevator down for 1 of the 2 week stay.
