Wonderful! Great place within walking distance to so many things. We had a wonderful stay!

Nice hotel but not the area

This boutique hotel is situated partway up the Sao Jorge hill, just behind the Alfama district, which is considered to be the oldest neighbourhood in Lisbon. The location is ideal for walking to many historic sites and centres in Lisbon, including the traditionally Moorish Alfama (which, unlike much of Lisbon, was not destroyed by the 1755 earthquake), the impressive Castelo de Sao Jorge at the top of the hill, and the elegant Baixa district (which was impressively rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake). The narrow, medieval street out front runs along the line of the well-known Number 28 tram sightseeing line. There is a large bus station nearby at the bottom of the hill, however, taxis and Ubers in Lisbon are plentiful and inexpensive, so we did not make use of any of the buses. The hotel itself is immaculately maintained, modern, and comfortable. Like many of Europe's ancient cities, space is at a premium so the rooms are not especially large, but they are intelligently designed for efficient use of space. We appreciated the comfortable beds and efficient climate control. The hotel staff were absolutely wonderful: friendly, efficient, communicative, and very helpful. We could not have been more pleased with the service. The only challenge with this hotel was that, because it is located along the narrow streets of the medieval town, there is no on-site parking. Parking in Lisbon (especially in the Alfama area) is very difficult and crowded. You may be lucky enough to find overnight parking up the hill, along the Largo Portas do Sol, which boasts one of the most beautiful promenades and pracas in Portugal. We decided to return the rental car early and make do with taxis and Ubers, which again are quite useful in Lisbon. Based on location, comfort, and the extremely helpful staff, this hotel is an ideal base for a historical tour of Lisbon. We highly recommend it.

Margarita was an excellent host. She was very patient and did a grand tour of the apartment and was clear on all the set up. We loved the apartment and will come again to stay.

Nice apartment in lively neighbourhood Newly renovated apartment with all facilities. Crammed entrance and reception, but so are all streets and buildings in the neighbourhood. Charming tram line 12 literally runs just outside the balcony. Location is perfect for sightseeing and has plenty of small restaurants just up the road. Bear in mind that street are narrow and parking impossible. Drop off by taxi or Uber is fine thou. Only negative experience was the check out time at 10:00. Most other hotels in Portugal allowed check out by 11 or 12 by default. We refused to pay 45 EUR extra for one hour after spending in excess of 1300 EUR there. Apparently management doesn’t see it as an insult🙄

Modern, spacious with friendly staff Wow, it was an amazing apartment, modern and spacious with helpful and friendly staff. Tucked away in the old part of town, was so nice to have the washer and dryer and small stores right next door. Even though it is a set of apartments, most of the time there wasnan employee at the entrance. She was great and gave us tips of where to go. There were June street festivals with sardines and other great food and drink. They warned us when we made the reservation, but the noise was only in one bedroomnin back and the fun of thenfestival was worth it. Family loved this place
