Pena National Palace is a historic castle attraction in Sintra, and one of the main reasons travellers come to this town. The palace sits on a hill above the centre, which is why so many visitors stay in Sintra itself and walk up rather than commute in from elsewhere. Its mix of towers and painted terraces makes it one of the most photographed sights in the area, and the surrounding park is part of the visit for most people. Because the approach is uphill, the choice of hotel matters: staying in Sintra keeps the climb short and lets you set off before the busiest part of the day. The hotels near Pena National Palace listed here are ordered by distance, from 660 m to 940 m away, so you can pick how much of the hill you want to walk.
