Hotels near Hipódromo Manuel Possolo, Cascais

We stayed for 11 nights in room 98, a ground floor room opening onto the swimming pool. It had a bath with a powerful shower and good temperature. The bed was enormous and comfortable, and the air conditioning was very good. I think there are only two ground floor rooms, 98 and 96. 96 next to us, has a walk in shower and no bath. The staff were very friendly and efficient, but a stand out waitress was Catia: always smiling and went the extra mile to enrich our experience and all other guests. We had dinner in the restaurant 3 times. We got the impression, the menu did not change and although good quality, it was quite expensive compared to the local restaurants. We had lunch on the bar terrace every day bar one and it was excellent with many choices. We had a very enjoyable stay and would come again. One small quibble was that waiter service around the pool was erratic. Many times I had to go to the bar to order drinks. The waiters did not patrol the pool area as often as we would have liked. Also, used glasses were not cleared away in a timely manner. One bit of excitement, The couple in room 96 next to ours were well known actors. We sat on loungers next to them for 7 days along with another UK couple. Sadly, although my wife thought she recognised the lady next door she thought she may have been a dancer, not a film and TV star. We had long conversations about restaurants and where to go in Cascais. It was only after they had left, the other couple told us who the actors were. And no, I am not going to tell you who they are. At one point my wife asked the husband if she could ask a question about his wife. Looking back, he looked a bit perturbed. Was she going to ask about the actors the wife had worked with, ask for a selfie, quiz her on Hollywood or TV programs she had been in? But no, my wife asked him if his wife had ever been a dancer? The look on his face was of relief. She doesn't know who we are; we can just have a normal relationship. (His wife did ballet at school). Great stay, thank you Hotel Albatroz.

The hotel is overall ok, but my experience is really controversial. Pros: Good value for money. The location is quite central. Clean rooms. Live music at the rest zone near the reception from time to time. Cons: Cleaning process is ruining the perception. No logic, no exact timing, they can even enter the room with a sign ”no disturb” on the door. Sound proof is poor, so all external noises can be easily heard. The reception people could be more friendly (smiling and saying ”hello” to customers when an eye contact is happening). I haven't yet tried the breakfast.

O Hotel está muito bem localizado, bem arrumado e os quartos são de um tamanho ótimo. O pequeno almoço está bom para o conceito de um boutique hotel. Apenas dou 4 na limpeza, não é porque o quarto não estava limpo, ele estava bem limpo, mas apanhei alguns bicharocos a passearem, como uma lesma e uma aranha com tamanho simpático que era residente no wc. Mas adorei e voltarei 🥂

Beautifully located, ultra-modern facilities, friendly staff, the only downside is the busy and noisy road between the hotel and the sea...

Great place good food friendly service will definitely recommend. The buffet breakfast was great

The hotel is very nice and new looking. Very clean. Andre is so helpful at the front desk as are all of the staff. Loved it here. But for a long stay I would want more amenities but for the price and 2 nights, it was perfect. Lidl Grocery store across the street.

A nice, quiet place to stay just outside Lisbon (in the Porto Salvo area). We had a full-size bed with a couch, desk for working, and cable tv (the English channels begin at 200 - CNN, BBC, etc, plus movie channels). The breakfast spread was tasty and filling - coffee machine (8 different self-serve options), fruit juices, pastries, make yourself pancakes, fruit, and sliced meat. There is a Lidl supermarket next door and the Oeires Parque mall is a 15-minute walk away. We used a taxi and Uber to get around, and the Paco de Arcos train station was a short ride over to get into Lisbon. The staff (with the exception of a few of the house keepers) all spoke English and were friendly and helpful. If you are in Lisbon for more than a few days and looking for an economical hotel, then highly recommend!

We enjoyed our holiday, yes I would like to stay there again, its was so good, very good breakfast a lot of variety of food, good views, very friendly staff and the a lot of shops and restaurants near by. The beach its less the minute from the hotel.

Wouldn’t stay there again. Booked a stay for 4 days on my birthday week. I have been in Ibis Hotels in Lisbon before, but not in Alfragide. To my disappointment, beds were so small you had to be careful not to fall at night, bathroom seems to be made of plastic and last but not least, there was a hotel refurbishment in process, which means loads of noise early morning, dust, strong smells aaaand our window view close by a white paper. When I address this last one to the reception I was told that it was “to our privacy”. One of the days I tried to open the window to have fresh air, due the strong smell inside the room, and there was no ventilation as there was a paper closing our whole window. Oh and not to mention that cleaning staff touches guests stuff inside the room, so be careful. Luckly our lugagge with valuables was locked. I really don’t mind sharing my candies with anyone, but I feel a bit of attitude to find a box of chocolate half open, and then only the paper of candies on top of the dusty table. If you take, not a problem at all, but at least take the paper with you. Breakfast was good at least. So, in my opinion, not the best place to spend your birthday week and not the best place to stay at all. Will def choose another hotel next time.
