This is an old hotel located at around 25kms from Lisbon Centre. Stayed here for one night in June 2008. Although advertised as a 4 star hotel, it is not. 3 at best. It´s an old hotel that needs an upgrading.The only 4 star facility in the hotel is the lobby, which is quiet nice. The main advantage is the... more

We stayed here in sept '07 as we were going to the moto gp in Estoril and left it too late to book any closer to the race track. We were very glad we did ,as the hotel was lovely. The staff were very helpful (if a little laid back but so is all of portugal!). The food was O.K.... more

The location of this hotel means that if you want to go anywhere, you need to take a taxi. The exterior of the hotel is shabby and depressing! The lobby is the only nice part of the hotel and the only area that should be classed as 4*. Room service is advertised but not available. Pay-per-view movies are advertised but... more

This place was allright-- the decor was kind of weird but otherwise it was clean and adequate. The location is about 10 minutes walk from the train into Lisbon. It's not a great place to stay if you're mostly interested in exploring Lisbon and not Estoril or the surrounding area. more

My wife and I stayed here over an important visit to the Lisbon area. We found the hotel acceptable only -- perhaps at a 2 Star level. It is NOT a four-star hotel, as some guidebooks have it listed. The property is rough around the edges. Most importantly, the hotel has terrible service. Their front desk staff stands there all... more

We stayed here for 2 nights over easter and we were specifically wanting a beach location. And we got that!. The beach is only 100 meters or closer to the hotel. The area is not touristy at all, no english breakfasts or english pubs so that really appealed to us. A Very local area. The best part of this hotel... more

Since we went for a conference and didn't have to pay for the room, I think it wasn't a bad deal. I wouldn't go again on my own, unless I had a great discount price, because in the winter there's nothing to do around, and in the summer the beach is probably too crowded, since it is one of the... more

DATE: 16TH OCT 2006 Just returned from what must in fairness be desribed as an enjoyable few days staying at the Praia Mar Hotel. This hotel is somewhat dated in its decor and could badly do with an overhaul. The standard room in which we stayed was definitely in need of refurbishment - coffee stained fawn carpet walls marked from... more

BAD POINTS:This hotel is certainly not up to standards to be rated a 4 star.The building is about 40 yrs old therefore the rooms r old (smelly wardrobes & stained carpet)The reception area is nice & modern so we expected the rooms to be the same, but were disappointed when we saw the room was small,dull & not modern enough.... more
