The Magnolia is a very clean, the suites are the perfect home from home with great decor and comfortable beds, the staff are friendly and attentive and always ready to help with a smile.

I’ve been travelling to Portugal for the last 6 months to work on a project and have stayed at the Magnolia every time. The staff are wonderful and remembered me every time.

Perfect for a short break
Pros:

Great hotel for a short stay, it is well maintained. Extremely friendly & helpful hotel staff. Rooms are a reasonable size but bathroom was very cosy, that said, both have everything you need. Great food selection for breakfast and would highly recommend the toasted sandwiches or club sandwiches for lunch - portions are huge! Balcony chairs are very uncomfortable and would benefit with the addition of thick cushions. I would happily stay again if we came back for another break.
