Hotels in Sintra, Portugal
Sintra sits in the hills near Lisbon, Portugal, famous for its colorful 19th-century palaces like Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle. The climate is mild year-round, with cool, rainy winters perfect for wandering through the Sintra National Palace's tile rooms, and warm, dry summers ideal for hiking in the forested hills of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. Spring (March to May) brings blooming gardens at Quinta da Regaleira, while autumn (September to November) offers fewer crowds for exploring the medieval streets of the historic center.
