Great little place to stay
Great location, and room. Parking is an issue (which we now understand is just an issue in general in Nazaré, not this particular property). Very tidy, clean room with nice view of ocean and cute little balcony. Some noise from street at night, but to be expected. Overall, we were happy with the value and location!

Great location, across the street from the beach, close to many restaurants and the funicular. Our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great and we enjoyed the rooftop jacuzzi!

Wonderful stay at By The Sea. Clean hotel, friendly staff, beautiful view and location. No elevator which was fine with us on 2nd floor but perhaps 4th floor guests might find it difficult with heavy luggage. Still a 5 star hotel!

In the thick of it
The rooms and rooftop are nice enough, but you’re right in the thick of it with a restaurant right downstairs that rings a bell every time someone gets a ‘boat’ of seafood served. Surely amazing for them, less so for those staying in a room just above trying to sleep.
As there are several restaurants around, deliveries start very early with revving trucks and beeping. When they’re done the street sweeper starts.
If you value your sleep, swap the beach location for something quieter.

Nice beach front hotel
This hotel is 1 minute walking distance to the Nazare beach. The location cannot be better.
The narrow street made loading/unloading luggage a bit challenging, but it is Nazare in general.

Don't Book the Quad
We were in the "Quad" room, which is 2 tiny, connected rooms, one of which had no window of its own. Pictures and text implied there would be a "City view", "Balcony", and "side ocean view" - none of which were actually true

Property was great, however we stayed inside all afternoon due to a huge thunderstorm like I’ve never seen before! Afterwards we walked 5 minutes to funicular to see the surfer museum (excellent) and endearing old town at the top. The restaurant had all fresh seafood with generous pours of wine!

Great hotel with tiny beds and loud street noise.
This is a great hotel with excellent service. Breakfast is fantastic. However, my husband is 6 foot 5. He barely fit on the tiny bed. Additionally, it’s above a club of some sort and the partying starts about 1 am and finishes after 3 am. Very loud singing. It was amusing because we didn’t necessarily need sleep as we are on vacation. I can see how it might drive someone crazy if they needed sleep.

This was a great hotel. We lived everything about it. The room was so cute and little balcony we sat out and could see the ocean. Awesome places to eat and walk to activities.
We would stay again
