The hotel staff is just wonderful! The smelliness is due to the water treatment plant nearby - nothing to do with the hotel. The location of the hotel is outside the town center (yet walking distance) and close to the sea. It depends on what you want, whether that matters or not. They also serve excellent fish dishes. The rooms... More

We stayed 3 days in Peniche and planned to use the location as home base for travel (quieter and easier to get in and out of than Lisbon). The location of Peniche was great for visiting sights in mid-Portugal. The hotel staff was lovely and very helpful - especially when we were trying to see if our flights were leaving... More

We stayed 5 nights in this hotel in October '11 so outside tourist season and paid 49€ for double (get the room with ocean view). The location can be both good or less good depending what you want to do - it has excellent view of the ocean, very peaceful and you definitely are not getting any fish smell in... More

The hotel is right next to a waste water plant and because of this there is a terrible smell, they try to hide this with artifical parfumes. The walls are very thin.

PINHALmar is located a small drive outside Peniche center close to the ocean. The hotel is not large but cosy and the rooms are smal. The pool and pool-area was nice. All are well-kept. The receptionist gave good service. The breakfast was a bit below satisfactory due to having to fight for the food with an army of small ants.

We arrived straight from Lisbon airport to finally be able to relax in this delightful hotel set near the cliff road overlooking the Atlantic with the lighthouse nearby, just outside the old town of Peniche. Had a small double back room overlooking pinewoods, pleasant and cheaper than ocean view front. Good bathroom, all you could want in breakfast buffet. Great... More

We flew into Lisbon from the US and drove north to Peniche after a stop in Obidos (on the way). Our first hotel of the trip was at Hotel PINHALmar - a good first evening hotel. The hotel locationis easy to find and well marked by signs on the road once you are in Peniche. The property is perched across... More
