Lawrence's Hotel

Sintra


Lord Byron once stayed at this regal boutique hotel, built as such in 1764. It oozes charm with its lantern-lit, vaulted corridors and snug bar. Wooden floors creak in the individually designed rooms, decorated with azulejos and antique trunks; some rooms have views over the wooded valley. There’s also an excellent restaurant (mains €12 to €22.50).
