Fortress pousada by the marina that welcomes small dogs

What we've verified
You can wander the citadel's open squares and reach the marina and the Cascais seafront walk on foot, with the Serra de Sintra trails a short drive for bigger outings.
One dog or cat up to 15 kg in Classic Rooms and Art District Junior Suites only.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
EUR 30, Per pet per night, payable at reception
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
The property.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
One pet up to 15 kg in Classic Rooms and Cidadela Art District Junior Suites only, arranged in advance, with a liability document signed on arrival. Dogs aren't in the restaurants, the bars or the social areas, and outside the room they stay on a lead or in a carrier, close to you. Your dog can be left alone in the room for up to an hour. About 300 m from Ribeira beach, a Cascais supervised beach where dogs are banned in the bathing season.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
