What was good and what was bad?
GOOD

Very friendly and professional staff, smiling and attentive service.

Very nice room with elegant design.
Very good breakfast served at the restaurant with terrace (pastries are just delicious!)
Very pleasant outdoor pool area (non heated pool). Spa and indoor pool are open under reservation because of Covid.

Very convenient from the airport (less than 20 minutes ride from airport) and to Lisbon (train station next to the hotel).

BAD
Nothing

Value for $ or IHG Rewards Points? Would you return?
I love the quiet and elegant boutique hotel atmosphere of the hotel, with quality of service at the level of very best Four Seasons hotels (ability to anticipate needs in a unintruisive way).
The hotel is indeed very pleasant, and swimming in February is quite a pleasure!
