We stayed at the Quinta as part of a tour of northern Portugal. I liked the Quinta - the grounds and the pool are lovely - but have some reservations about the property. The road to the Quinta is down a very steep dirt track and could be dangerous at night. The property is quite isolated and not convenient for... more

We stayed there for five nights in early June 2009. Firstly we took a 10 Euro taxi ride along a dangerous road and down a dirt track to this so called ‘Hotel’. On arrival we were met by a girl who was friendly and said that they preferred to consider their guests as friends. When we walked into the house... more

A rare find, that's the only way to describe Quinta de Sao Thiago. Nestled on the side of the high, well treed hills of Sintra, near the end of a narrow, seldom traveled country road you will find an elegant and stately manor. My wife and I along with two friends all from Calgary, Alberta enjoyed several days there this... more

We chose Quinta De Sao Thiago in Sintra, Portugal basically sight unseen and we couldn't have been happier with our find. It is a beautiful historic bed and breakfast with lovely grounds. The owners are wonderful people who were very helpful with sight seeing, shopping, car rentals and information about the area. We had a lovely two room suite with... more

We will always remember Quinta de Sao Thiago as one of the most beautiful places we have visited during our holiday. Especially the warmth of the hospitality... more

I stayed at the Quinta S.Thiago for a friend's wedding and instantly fell in love with the house. In a world where a lack of manners, taste and culture triumph, this very special place comes as quite a treat. The perfect antidote to plainly boring Hilton's, Four Season's etc .Basically under the form of a proper old fashioned country house... more

We came to Sintra without any reservation and in the first night we stayed at Vila Rosa (recommended by Lonely Planet). The place was empty and abandonned not to mention that the bed linen smelled like moth balls so we called Quinta S. Thiago and booked a room for the following 2 nights. The house is very old and full... more

Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed in a beautiful old courtyard, surrounded by gorgeous Wisteria trees.Shown to our... more
