The reviews were wonderful, but this hotel seemed so-so to us. The room was small, the mattress not super comfortable, and the wifi was pretty unusable in the room. The best part was the balcony and view.

Up on the hill
Excellent hotel with beautiful views of Lisbon. Bear in mind it very high up on the hill - so cobbled stones and lots of walking - take good walking shoes. Nice staff who were very helpful. Breakfast was good. We ordered takeway online and we were in the best location for all the food places so they came quick. Hotel toiletries were a fragrant brand and can be found in a store in belem. We had a balcony which had beautiful views - sunset and midnight sky. There is a lift / escalator at the end of the road - make sure you use it to go down to the city centre and come back up. The old castle - Castelo de São Jorge is walkable from the hotel - lovely views and stunning peacocks who love on the grounds.

Property itself was very good, however when leaving there was many dog feces on the street & sidewalks just outside the entrance. They should make an effort to clean the sidewalk & street just outside the entrance.

Older hotel, but that is consistent with the Alfama area of Lisbon. Hotel room okay but could use a serious refresh and carpet cleaning.

Hidden gem hotel on a quiet street, fantastic view from our hotel room, and yet in a great location. Staff were amazing, thank you reception staff for being so welcoming, informative, arranging tours, shuttle. A beautiful hotel inside and easy walk to all the sights of old Lisbon.

Close to the castle and in the older historic area. Great views from the windows since it is up on the hill. Ask the front desk for the location of hillside outdoor elevators to make it easier to get down the hill for more shopping in the main part of town.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Firstly, we were charged 50% more by Hotels.com than what was on the website, via Trivago in AUD. Terrible start. The breakfast is ok, but not great. Access to the hotel is not easy via Uber. They have one iron for the complete hotel, so in 3 days my wife could only use an iron once. When we organised for the hotel to provide direct transport to the airport, they only accept cash, which was a major inconvenience (as we'd used all our cash). When the time came to be picked up, the transport didnt turn up, we were late to the airport and had to use a taxi. Significant hassle to get the cash for the hotel, but they still couodnt organise it. All when Hotels.com charged us 50% more than agreed.

Beware - get access vode for Uber and Taxi
Beware-get an "access code" from the hotel prior to arrival due to the hotel being in restricted area, or have Uber ot Taxi call hotel for access code and don't let them drop you off 300 feet from the hotel especially at 12:30 am with child and 3 heavy suitcases even if you ordered most expensive Uber Black service from the airport unless you want to have to spend $400-$500 replacing your suitcases since the wheels on them will be damaged after dragging them on stone lined streets of Lisbon. I had multiple email exchanges with hotel about upgrade charges prior to my arrival and yet zero communication about "access code" or the fact that doors get locked and curtains are shut and you have to find the bell to ring when arriving late. Other than that, the hotel is nice, in the quiet area, beautiful view (2nd and 3rd floors patios shared privacy), pay attention to hotel room square footage in room description and don't get anything under 250 sq.Ft as that includes bathroom In Europe). Breakfast is better than in US but worse than Northern Europe, but seemed typical for Portugal as the same breakfast was served at the lounge in Lisbon airport, no variety. Staff was very polite and courteous but did not respond to my suggestion of notifying/sharing "access code" with future guests to avoid my experience. Walls are paper thin, I had to ask guests nextdoor to stop fighting as it was scaring my daughter. You can hear every vacuum move from cleaning ladies starting 8 am.
