We booked an ocean view room with a balcony at this modern, convenient hotel in the heart of Cascais. The staff was friendly and charming, especially when we attempted to speak fully in Portuguese. The room was clean and the view was beautiful. Parking was free and easy in the underground parking beneath the hotel. There are restaurants and shops galore in the area surrounding the hotel as well as a pedestrian walkway along the shoreline for miles walking opportunities. The icing on the cake was the superb free and bountiful breakfast. Our stay at Hotel Baia was perfect for a day on the Portuguese coastline.

Beautiful views from the front of the property and lovely rooftop pool area. We enjoyed a great selection from the breafast buffet and evening restaurant was great, food and service was excellent. Our room had a balcony, which was welcome. Facilities in the room were up to date, worked well and was very comfortable

Loved this property! Right on the boardwalk. In the hustle and bustle of everything. The beach is across the street. Easily walkable to loads of restaurants. The view from our 4th floor balcony was amazing! Breakfast buffet had lots of options. Loads of patio seating for a coffee or a night cap. Hope to stay again sometime!

Needs improvement Overall the communal areas , reception bar etc were very nice and well kept. I was not very impressed with the hallway on floor 1, there were many stains on the floor carpet and an odd smell. The room was very clean but very hot considering it was February and there was no way of turning the air con on. We had to sleep with the door open and because of the position of the hotel it’s quite noisy. They need to do something about the mattresses as the bed was overly hard/firm too and was not comfortable. Bathroom needs addressing as there is black mood behind the sink mirror. Rooftop bar not open, assuming as it was out of season but was abit disappointing. All the staff members we encountered were nice ,especially reception. Would we consider staying again? maybe because of the location and price but would probably upgrade the room. The view from the balcony is great

Stayed in Feb. a lot of problems. Got to the room, the temperature is 27 degree Celsius, of course AC is off for the season and no way to cool the room unless opening the window. Facing the street and all night there was loud music from the pub downstairs. Worst of all, the “new” WiFi they put in for higher floors doesn’t work. It kept drop the connection every 1-2 minutes. You pretty much can’t use the internet unless you go to the lobby to use a different WiFi. Bathroom is old and all the towels are old and worn out. Yes the location is great, right next to the marina, but the experience is poor to say the least.
Response from Management on 15 Feb 2024
We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we apologize for the inconveniences you encountered during your stay in February. We're sorry to hear about the temperature issue in your room and the noise disturbances. Regarding the WiFi, we acknowledge the importance of a reliable connection and are actively working to improve this service as you have noted. Your feedback about the bathroom and towels is valuable, and we are committed to addressing these concerns as we continue to enhance our facilities. We hope you consider giving us another chance in the future, and we assure you that steps are being taken to make improvements. Thank you for your understanding.

Fabulous hotel in a superb location.
I came to Cascais as my final stop before returning to the USA after several months in Europe. I absolutely loved this town and this hotel. There is absolutely no reason to look elsewhere. The hotel is in a fabulous location and the views from the small terraces were fantastic. The staff was great, the breakfast was good, and the restaurant in the evening was fantastic. No complaints at all. I was here in early December and it was wonderful to have a bird’s eye view of all the Christmas activities below. It was such a joy to stay here at this particular time. Cascais is beautiful and this hotel could not have been be better.

The hotel is quite old and very noisy. We had requested a quiet room, with a good view, but was given a very noisy room in the wing of the hotel next to bars and restaurants. Our view was a wall.

We're sorry to hear about the inconvenience you experienced during your stay. Our team genuinely regrets that the room did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and want to clarify that our standard rooms are designed for a comfortable stay but do not offer scenic views. For a more panoramic experience, we recommend trying our superior land rooms, which provide a view of Cascais village, or our superior sea rooms, offering a beatiful view of the Cascais Bay. Additionally, our rooftop is a delightful spot to enjoy the surrounding beauty. We are also happy to inform that we will finish refurbishing all our rooms by the end of March 2024. Be sure that if you decide to stay with us again, we'll make every effort to ensure you have a more pleasant experience. Thank you for sharing your concerns.

We have stayed at this property before and had an enjoyable experience in the past. This more recent trip, we booked the room with the queen side bed. It was less than uncomfortable and felt like you were sleeping on a box rather than a mattress it was hard as a rock. The “blankets” on the bed were as thin as a could be and it was like sleeping with 2 sheets. All the towels in the bathroom had stains on them. The safe in the room was missing the lock therefore unusable with a note stating “if you would like to use a safe, please contact the front desk”. As an international traveler, I find it necessary to lock your documents and extra cash in a safe at all hotels for added security of your most important belonging. I understand they are either renovating or about to start renovations but based on the recent experience and the lack of sleep we received due to lack of comfort, I don’t think we will stay at Hotel Baia again.

The hotel Baia is in a great location with a view that is probably the best in Cascais. I came here last year with my daughter and had a great time.

Great location but noisy in the evening
The staff are excellent and very helpful and the breakfast is good. We were upgraded to a sea view room on arrival which actually turned out to be a bad thing. The doors/windows at the front of the hotel are not sound proofed. On the first night there was a festival right outsider the hotel until 12.30 and on the second night there was a busker and people drinking in the local bars until the early hours. There was not much sound difference between having the patio doors open or closed. I would not recomend the rooms at the front of the hotel if you are traveling with children and want a good nights sleep.

This property is in a great location to town. It would have been appreciated if they had posted the annual music festival right at their front door for the full 4 days we were there. There was no sleeping til 1:00 am any night. You need to enjoy the music til the wee hours or go crazy! And it was good music- we just didn’t know that’s what we were buying into. The lobby areas were nice. Good buffet breakfast. Very dated and uncomfortable rooms. No extra amenities in the room like iron, shampoo, shower cap etc. one soap should do it all, they say! Not really 3 star room or service. Service on the terrace was poor. Front desk was a little put out if you needed something, but there was generally one good service rep. In each area. I would stay in Cascias again but not sure if I would chose Hotel Baia.
