    Amazing hotel with peacocks:)

    It is great they have all day drinks and snacks available in lobby. But still should be a bottle of water and some teapot with tea in a room. I would also say that the bathroom is nice but the bathtub is just not convenient for shower. I would recommend to come up with something here as it is important, especially for the price one night costs.

    Peacocks Stuff All day snacks and drinks Complimentary port wine and sparkling wine!

    The steep hills to the Inn were tough every night after spending many hours walking in the city. It would be awesome if this Inn could provide a golf cart pick up and drop off.

    It was a beautiful, secluded location, a 2-minute walk to Castelo de São Jorge. We enjoyed the company of the peacocks roaming around the area! A table of food and drinks waited for us in the hotel lounge area and, a bottle of Porto in the room was a nice touch.

    The staff were all fabulous from arrival to departure. The breakfast was beautiful and the option to have hot drinks and Portuguese pastries throughout the day on the lounge area was an added bonus and very welcome after a day of sightseeing.

    The hotel was located right next to the Castelo de S. Jorge and, therefore, meant that it was very quiet and peaceful. It was beautifully appointed, with excellent bedrooms and public rooms. There aren't many places in the world were you can be sitting in a small courtyard, drinking tea, eating pastel de nada and watch peacocks wandering around! The staff were very supportive and helpful - nothing was too much bother for them and they certainly made us feel very welcome.

    There was nothing that we did not love. The location was a little challenging but we were always able to get where we wanted to go ! Many options!

    Old world charm. Well maintained, well appointed rooms. Beautiful courtyard where we could kick back and wind down. The peacocks were added value ☺️ So fun to watch.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    The hotel was wonderfully quiet and serene. Breakfast was very good and in a lovely setting to collect thoughts and plan the day. Location was excellent for Alfama sites and for restaurants. Alfama's popularity meant the crowds could be daunting. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    The hotel is located up from the city centre with a bus and tram not too far away. We were fine but not for everyone if walking g hills is a struggle.

    The hotel has a wonderful history and the decor celebrates this very well. The breakfast was excellent and is served until 12 pm. The staff were very helpful organising restaurant bookings and giving advice.

    Solar do Castelo is a haven of peace away from the busy Alfama streets. It is comfortable, clean and with welcoming staff. We enjoyed the coffee/tea and complimentary snacks throughout the day and the evening appetiser. It was a very special place to stay for our wedding anniversary.

    Being at the top of the hill by the castle, we had trouble getting the taxis to take us all the way up to the hotel.

    It was a lovely hotel next door to Sao Jorge’s Castle in the very old section of Lisboa. We enjoyed our room and especially the common areas. The beautiful courtyard was lovely to sit in during the afternoon as well as the evening by the fire after coming back from dinner. Breakfast was perfect.
