The Fortaleza Do Guincho Hotel lies standing as a guardian of one of the most
exquisite landscapes in Portugal, overlooking the ocean and the
wonderful Guincho beach. This fully-renovated 17th-century fortress will astound and enchant any guest with its myriad charms.
Whatever you are looking for,
whether a unique relaxing spot or a quiet and enjoyable place to work,
the Fortaleza do Guincho is the right choice for you.
The hotel offers fully refurbished rooms with fantastic views out to the
sea. The ancient character has been beautifully preserved with antique
furnishings including old weapons and suits of armour; all reflective of the
Fortress’ turbulent past and the times when
it was built on the orders of King Joao IV in 1642.
This beautiful property with a
high level of comfort enjoys a perfect location, only 30 minutes away from
Lisbon, between the steep green hills of Sintra Natural Park, and
overlooking the Guincho beach, which with its big crashing Atlantic
waves, has become very famous for surfing and windsurfing in the
last years.
For those gourmet guests, the hotel serves exceptional "Haute Cuisine"
designed to satisfy those who regard gastronomy as one of the greatest
pleasures in life, in the hands of the chef Marc
Le Quedec, who inspires in french cuisine and combines it, with
regional and Portuguese influence.
