4 nights in Lisbon.
Really friendly hosts. Stay away from the overpriced patio restaurants on the block. Overpriced and cater to the cruise ships. Very small room. But nice clean sheets and towels everyday. It’s reasonably located to a lot of things and there is a subway nearby. Belem is definitely a ways but we truly spent one morning there. The area around the hotel was much more interesting. Only did breakfast once but it was good. A lot of choices but simple.

Located close to all the nightlife in the Alfama district. Maybe a bit too close to the cruise ship terminal. Front desk very helpful, AC in my room very good. The breakfast was bla, just cold stuff with horrible coffee. The coffee in the lobby is really good.

Incredibly helpful, kind and friendly staff. Showed a genuine desire to make guests as comfortable as possible - for example, we left the hotel for one night to go to Porto and left our luggage with them during that time. We came back the following day in the evening to check back into our new room, and they left the luggage waiting in our room. They also let us go to breakfast a little early on our flight day, as by the time it officially started, we’d have already left for the airport.
Acts like these showed they really cared about us being comfortable and that made our vacation al the more relaxing!

Nice place
The location is amazing with an ocean view. Right in the historic part of town with so many attractions at walking distance. Affordable, but the breakfast buffet can use some variety.

Alfama holiday
Bright and very clean hotel with friendly staff. Excellent location in Alfama so very close to lots of attractions but quiet at night. Lovely to be looking out at trees and riverside. Breakfasts very good and generous - especially appreciated the fresh fruit . Spacious bathroom

Great location, friendly staff but poorly maintain
The location is fabulous, the staff super friendly and helpful, the free breakfast surprisingly tasty, varied and pleasant. HOWEVER, the room looked nothing like in a photo (you really wouldn’t want to spend more time than absolutely needed); the state of the room was atrocious (all walls were chipped and stained); the glass wall in the shower was probably never cleaned. While clean, there was a clear maintenance debt.
