About

Chalet Saudade is a century‑old Alpine‑styled guesthouse nestled in the heart of Sintra’s historic center, just a short walk from the town’s main attractions. The 18‑th‑century chalet has been lovingly restored with vintage furnishings, trompe‑l’oeil ceilings by Eugénio Cotrim, and a romantic garden that offers sweeping views of the Vale da Raposa and the nearby Moorish Castle. Each room is carefully furnished in an Art Nouveau aesthetic, featuring king‑size or twin beds, soft percale linens, and a complimentary kettle and tea set. Guests enjoy complimentary Wi‑Fi, a free tea or port served at check‑in, and the choice of an extra bed for 50 € per night per person. Breakfast is served daily (8:00 – 11:00 am) at the nearby Café Saudade, located 150 m away, and the chalet has no elevator, so rooms are accessed by stairs. The property is pet‑free, smoke‑free (except in the garden), and all extra beds and cots are subject to availability. Check‑in is available from 15:00 – 19:00 pm and checkout is by 12:00 pm. Early or late arrivals may be accommodated for an additional fee (40 € after 22:00, 60 € after midnight). The chalet offers free daily housekeeping between 9:00 and 16:00 pm, with optional daily change upon request. All guests are greeted at reception, who is available to verify check‑in details and provide local recommendations. The Chalet Saudade’s location, set against the backdrop of Sintra’s historic architecture and lush gardens, makes it a tranquil base for exploring the town’s cultural sights and nearby parks.
