Plenty of hot water in the shower and the AC worked well. Front desk staff was great at helping with directions. I would have like a tea pot in the room, as neither of us drink coffee. Overall enjoyed our stay.

Encore mieux qu’on ne l’espérait ! Très bel hôtel, soigneusement décoré, très bien placé. Le personnel est très serviable et sympathique. Le buffet petit déjeuner très bon également. Nous avons testé un soir le restaurant de l’hôtel : une tuerie. Lisbonne est une fête à ciel ouvert et les bâtiments sont anciens : sans surprise la rue était bruyante (nous l’avions vu dans les commentaires sur différents hôtels). L’hôtel met à disposition des boules quies, ce qui est très pratique. 10/10 pour ce séjour.

Hotel was right across the street from a great outdoor plaza with tapas and drinks. Easy to walk to restaurants and shopping. Suite was lovely and everyone at the hotel was friendly and helpful! Only negative was that the lift wasn’t working but was being repaired when we were there. Would definitely book it again and recommend it to friends!

Quirky but Lovely

This was our second stay here - we stayed 5 years ago, so it was just as good as last time. I think we had the same superior room which overlooked the road. Great size, very bright and airy (it had 2 large floor to ceiling windows), and nice bathroom (amazingly powerful shower) This hotel is quite quirky, so if you like one of those non descript hotels that are clean and modern without any character, then this is probably not the place for you. If you want somewhere full of character, with friendly helpful staff and great location, this is the place for you. We like our hotels to feel like they reflect the country we are staying in. One thing I would like to suggest - a toaster in the breakfast room.
