Situated in Sintra and with Sintra National Palace reachable within 1.4 km, Casa Azul Hostel features a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is set 3.8 km from Quinta da Regaleira, 6.1 km from Pena National Palace and 6.8 km from Moors Castle. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and luggage storage for guests.

Everything about it. Starting from the host, Anthony, what a wonderful guy. Always smiling and ready to talk to. The kitchen was amazing. Free coffee, free tea. Bathrooms were pretty neat, and even the beds were very clean and comfy. The property is very near to the station, so catching an early morning train isn't a hassle. Plus the property was really beautiful both inside and outside, and has a very cute little terrace to hangout or have your morning coffee and smoke. This is definitely the place where I will be staying next time I come to Sintra.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Special place surrounded by lots of green. Quiet. With lots of space. A huge garden belongs to the house. Have breakfast on the terrace, overlooking the mountains and Sintra. The house has an 80s youth hostel-hotel charme. 10 min drive to the most western point of continental Europe (cabo da roca) with an excellent restaurant Refugio da Roca; 10 min from Monserrat castle, 15 min from Sintra town center. Fantastic, friendly and helpful staff speaking many languages!

    Great location, amazing accommodation. Rooms are spacious and clean, and the bed is amazingly comfortable. Everything is super close to the hostel. Staff is extremely friendly, easy-going and helpful. They give you all the information you need in the spot. Downstairs is a nice cafe with great cakes and food.
