    Very small rooms on top floor and very restricted views. Price reflected the position of the hotel, the staff and the views from the terrace , but not the size of the rooms!

    Hotel with the only roof top terrace in old Lisbon. Has a better view than the tourist viewing point at the top of the hill!!

    A unique hotel with the most excellent staff & fabulous views.

    Feel guilty finding any fault - bathroom was a little compromised (cleanliness excellent) & a little surprised by how small the pool was (now I’m sounding like a complete diva!). Totally understand that land is at a premium in cities such as the gorgeous Lisbon.

    Breakfast was brilliant & Monica overseeing proceedings was exceptional. We loved the view from our room. Amazing! Roof top bar staff brilliant! Compliments to housekeeping who had very high standards. And then on to reception - the jewel in the crown. Again exceptional! Leonardo showed us around & explained all areas of the hotel. Cannot remember all names of those on reception (so sorry) but you were all wonderful! Today my husband phoned the hotel to make some enquiries about making a booking for next year. He spoke to Arielle (we had met before). What an outstanding young woman - so so informative, beautiful command of the English language & above all a genuinely lovely person. Last but not least, the brilliant young man who was responsible for the cleaning of the communal floor areas. He would always stop work to allow guests to continue their travels. Always with a smile & great courtesy. Huge thanks to you all.

    Loved the building and the location. Staff was very friendly. Loved that it included a walking tour with Manuel, very interesting. Manuel let a great tour, loved learning about the Alfama district one of the oldest in Lisbon. Just excellent, especially on our first day of the trip. A wonderful introduction to Portugal. Breakfast was well prepared.

    The hotel is a bit hidden within Alfama which gives the accomodation its charm. It has a very relaxed atmosphere and everyone there is super friendly. The view from the terrace and the pool is absolutely amazing. Just sitting on the terrace and enjoying a glass of wine while taking in the breathtaking view was one of our favourite things to do in whole Lisbon.

    The only thing was not having enough shade around the pool area and the ability to lounge there. They were having issues at the time and hopefully will be resolved soon.

    Lovely design. Great staff and good facilities. The food- breakfast and lunch were great too.

    Navigate Lisbon’s narrow streets is always a challenge, we arrived via Uber, but the driver did not know he would be able to make a turn in front of the hotel, so we had to walk with our bags this narrow street to get there. I did not see any vegan options on the menu (breakfast).

    Great location, close to the tram and other tourist stuff that I panned to visit. The staff was super friendly.
