"The property location is incredibly convenient for all activities from sightseeing to dining to local transportation. Our room was a suite which was comfortable and clean, but not overly spacious. We did not eat any meals at the hotel restaurant, but had excellent espresso martinis for nightcaps on a couple evenings. The staff was fine-not overly friendly but cordial. We would stay here again mainly because of the location. "

"My partner and I stayed here for three nights. The location was perfect, equally distanced from points of interests, busy shopping blocks, markets, restaurants, train stations and trolley stops! The rain shower in our room was excellent and alone worth the price of admission. The reception and wait staff were all very friendly and inviting. Strongly recommend staying here if you want to explore Lisbon, Belem, and Sintra. "

"Wonderful stay in an amazing, historic area of Lisbon. Staff was also wonderful. One thing to be aware of though, is that the hotel is located in a street with limited access. So if you drive or take taxi/uber, you will have to walk a very steep cobblestone street. If you have lots of luggage, make arrangements with the hotel. They are very accommodating. "

"Good stay, great location, but it could be a fine destination with a full rehab of the property. There is a bad smell in all of the rooms that we visited and common areas for certain, as referenced in other reviews. There is also a lot of great inner lobby space, like maybe they removed the pools and spa etc, that was vacant but was cool looking. Could be great and well needed cocktail bar for the area. "

"This hotel was so welcoming and luxurious from the moment we stepped in the door. Via the VIP offers on Expedia, we had a bottle of bubbles on ice in our room on arrival) We were lucky to be upgraded but I would be happy to stay in any room in this hotel. We had a complimentary mini bar which was great for unlimited bottles of water and other soft drinks. I think there might have been beer in there too. The bed was so comfy and the all marble shower room was delightful. From reception, to...
