Great location for seeing the city and getting around, good transportation links. very attentive staff and loved the little things like water and coffee at reception and the room fridge with some free drinks after a long hot day exploring the city.

Well maintained hotel with friendly and efficient staff. Close to all amenities and the Metro, but nevertheless in a quiet street - 10 minutes walk to the city centre. Nice touches with complimentary port, cherry liqueur and afternoon tea with pastries. We had a sudden need for medical assistance late in the evening and the staff were brilliant in getting it sorted. Extremely comfortable room with all you need, especially, a large bed, comfortable chairs and terrific shower - great for relaxing...

This was a truly fabulous hotel right in the middle of everything you could need from Lisbon. The staff were amazing and we particularly loved the pianist each night between 7:00 and 8:00. Top class service all round.

Don’t even hesitate and book this hotel for your Lisbon trip!
Hotel is immaculate, rooms are spacious,beautiful, huge comfortable bed and amazing bathroom. Staff are amazing and go above and beyond to help and make you welcome. I had a birthday during my stay and was surprised with a bottle of fizz and cake left in our room. Hotel is so convenient for everything and road is very quiet due to traffic restrictions on it. I’ve told everyone how good this hotel is and would love to return to it one...

A long weekend in Cascais with my better half was wonderful. The hotel is new, very modern, and the room we had was excellent. Love the wet room bathroom, large, 2 sinks, and a great bath. Our balcony with the twin sofa and table was very nice, with the sun in the afternoon, and had a really good view of the landscaping. Whilst I played 18 holes on the fabulous golf course (I was put with some really friendly chaps, we had a great game), my partner enjoyed a hot stone massage for 90 minutes, and...

Staff were super friendly and helpful.
Be aware that there is a large dog. She is very calm but will come and sit next to you if you eat anything!

Property is perfect and parking is a bonus. Large room with balcony and spotlessly clean.
However much confusion when we arrived as we had not received the pre check in instructions with entry codes etc. it was pure luck that someone was on site to help us. However this was more to do with Expedia than the property?
Would book direct with them next time

Well located right in the centre of Lisbon near to many of the local shops and restaurants. Made to feel very welcome when we arrived and were treated to an early check in, which was a lovely surprise. The team also gave us some port, wine and pastel de nata as an additional gift.

Amazing stay at Altis Avenida! Such a perfect location to explore Lisbon. The welcome we received and help with anything was wonderful. The rooftop bar was a particular highlight with a lovely atmosphere and fab cocktails. There was also a small sun deck for the moments to have a rest and take in the views.

No matter what type of hotel you are looking for, whether that’s a luxurious five star hotel or a budget bed and breakfasts near, Expedia will help you find your perfect accommodation close to the Cascais Coast.
Book a hotel in Cascais, you’ll find yourself in a cosmopolitan city, known for its picturesque city centre, beautiful mansions and a marina. Cascais is considered to be one of the richest municipalities in Portugal.
Things to Do On the Cascais Coast
Explore Boca do Inferno, a cave carved out by ocean waves. The name literally translates to the ‘mouth to hell’, as it produces a spectacular sound effect when the waves crash into the rocks.
Admire the 19th century Lighthouse, which houses the Santa Marta Museum and was recently renovated. It is one of the most iconic Portuguese lighthouses. The history and beauty of lighthouses in Portugal is conveyed through a movie shown at the Museum, depicting the oversized Fresnel lenses, and the lighthouse keepers’ diaries against the beautiful backdrop of sweeping sea views.
Head to the Fort of Our Lady, built to protect the coast of Lisbon and dedicated to Our Lady of Light.
Relax on Guincho Beach, a large sandy beach favoured by surfers and windsurfers who come here seeking the perfect waves. It’s so good for surf that World Surfing Championship was once held here.
Visit nearby Estoril and you’ll find yourself near sunny beaches, grand hotels, restaurants and a casino. Estoril also has some of Portugal’s finest golf courses, such as Estoril Golf Club and hosts international events like MotoGP at Estoril Circuit, the Estoril Open and Music Jazz Festivals.
Food and Drink
In nearby Luis de Camões Square you will find plenty of dining options, ranging from traditional Portuguese seafood and Italian restaurants to Indian and Asian cuisine. There’s also a great selection of trendy bars and pubs. Don’t forget to try the delicious butter cakes from Cascais called ‘areias’.
Shopping
If you’re after a few simple souvenirs for the folks back home, be sure to check out the street stalls on Frederico Arouca Street. For something a bit more glam, head to Casa da Guia: a beautiful 18th century mansion, which combines fashionable stores and cafés surrounded by stunning sea views.
Browse the local shops near Tamariz Beach or go to Cascais Shopping, where you’ll find great fashion brands, decorative items, technology and entertainment. There’s also a cinema where movies are shown with English subtitles.
There is a train service from downtown Lisbon to Cais do Sodré, which will take you to Cascais in about 50 minutes, but you can also choose to rent a car to explore the Cascais area at your own pace.
