Palacio Estoril*****

Located in the heart of Estoril, just 20 minutes from the centre of Lisbon and only a few minutes walk from the beach, the Hotel Palacio Estoril is a stunning 5-star hotel set in beautiful gardens and with outstanding views over Estoril and the bay of Cascais.

Hotel

The Palácio first opened its doors in the 1930's and during the Second World War, due to Portugal's neutrality, housed many royal families who had gone into exile in Estoril, which became known as the "Coast of Kings". The Hotel Palácio was the chosen home of many members of European royalty and was also the haunt of British and German spies. To this day this venue is still popular with Royals, nobility and film stars alike.

A stay here is like traveling back in time, but on a journey that also continues into the present and future. After many renovations and refurbishments over the years, today's Palácio Hotel retains many of the original characteristics as well as all the comforts and convenience of a modern luxury five-star hotel. The charm and ambience of exclusiveness is combined with timeless luxury and sophistication.

The schedule suited the purpose of my little break very well. It was very easy to change a few things. The hotel Palacio Estoril was amazing, very comfortable and non-intrusive. The staff was great, service was great and the food was above all expectations. Also the hotel 's history definitely deserves to be mentioned. What do I think makes a Wellness Pilates holiday complete? The relaxing spa treatments, fitness classes and pilates and a few little surprises - I meant healthy treats that were delivered to my room in the afternoon. Much appreciated. I can not put my finger on something that I'd thought was missing. Even the rainy weather helped I'd probably tired myself with more sightseeing if the weather was sunny. But rainy weather forced me to relax in the hotel and that is what I most needed. My most beautiful memory of my SIS holiday is definitely a full body massage and private pilates sessions with Nuno - a very professional and knowledgeable instructor who was able to adapt our training sessions in accordance with my level of pilates. I'd describe the overall experienceit as fantastic, I have enjoyed this opportunity to have a break from routine and refresh myself. Thank you for organising everything, I really appreciate it. Looking forward to the next reformer pilates retreat holidays.

I had a great time and am recharged, so I'm ready to get back to it :) The holiday was well prepared. The switch was made quickly and things moved on so that in the end it all came together very quickly. I honestly only thought there would be more people in the hotel with a similar programme, but it was actually only the locals who used the spa and all wellness facilities. The hotel is super-stylish and all the staff tightly dressed in appropriate clothes. I had honestly never stayed in a 5-star hotel before, and for me, I did feel out of place on my flip-flops in my sports outfit at breakfast among all the coloured bermudas and coloured polo shirts, loafers, ladies in neat neat dresses, hair in the Curl, a lot of English 'cockney' crowd I honestly thought. It's not a hotel I would have chosen on its own, but I went mainly for the Spa/wellness/Pilates part and that part also had a completely different vibe with people much more appealing to me. The private Pilates classes (by Helena) were super, she really listens to what you can and feel and did challenge in the process, really super! And the Pilates group class was also very nice. I have been doing Pilates in the Netherlands for years, but every instructor is slightly different. And the body massage was super, I really enjoyed it! And the spa was also really lovely, the bath with the bubbles and jets, really enjoyed it too! They were also very helpful in changing lessons to earlier in the day so I could still do something in the afternoons. So I walked to Cascais on Wednesday, went to Lisbon on Thursday and to Sintra on Friday. So my time well and fully spent. An accommodation that immediately exudes a bit more wellness from itself, I found the contrast between the accommodation and the Spa/Pilates quite big in terms of look and feel I mean so to speak. I had expected/hoped for more 'like-minded people' with whom you could easily do something with outside Pilates/wellness. I was mostly on my own, which was fine in itself, but I would have liked to do something together with others once in a while. In Pilates another experience richer! In fact, I had never done reformer Pilates before, but if they offer it in my area, I will definitely do it, really recommended as a complement to mat Pilates. Thanks again for everything and who knows, see you soon!

  • The excellent customer service of the whole team.
  • The train station is very close by, which makes it very easy to visit Lisbon for a day.
  • It is only a 10 minute walk to the beach.
  • Great spa accessible through the tunnel from the main house.
  • Nice detail is that Ian Fleming wrote Casino Royale here and that the movie “On Her Majesty's Secret Service” was shot here in 1969.

This not so much...

  • Some people don't like that the spa is accessed via a tunnel from the main hotel
  • Although the hotel is immaculate the style in places is a little dated but in keeping with the overall look

Our tips
