Hotel berhampiran Bar do Palácio, Lisbon

We booked a week at the Lisbon Serviced Apartments - Bairro Alto based on positive reviews from previous visitors. The (eight room) four story apartments are located in the old hilly section of the city where steep and narrow sidewalks are the norm and are slippery during rain. The main entrance is via a short alleyway. Access to the outer main door entrance and individual apartments are very 21st century in that there is no reception. The outside door has a cypher lock and guests use a reservation number to get in. Once inside the 'lobby' space there is a kiosk/screen to check in and get an assigned room and cypher code for your room. The kiosk has language selections to help with directions. There also a one-way phone to speak with a person/assistance. The machine scans documents, i.e., passports or European ID cards. It took me ten minutes and the final phase was to take a photo of the QR square displayed to keep track of your room number and access code. There are four floors with two apartments on each floor. There is an elevator and stairs. The rooms are spacious and well outfitted with a mini kitchen, including dishes, cooking ware, dishwasher, clothes washer and refrigerator. The clothes washer is great, we used it and dried clothes on a clothes hangar that was stashed in the closet. There is a comfortable queen size bed with a large flat screen hanging on the opposite wall. A closet has a self-use strong box with directions (in English) to set-up a personalized multi-digit code during your stay. The bathroom is roomy with a shower stall instead of a bath. Plenty of windows, including in the bathroom. The cross street is named Rua Do Poco Dos Negros and is a main line for the local trams that pass through the neighborhood, with a tram stop maybe 100 feet from the apartments. Taxis pass through here as well. Small restaurants are plentiful within a 15-minute parameter. The popular Plaza del Comercio is about a twenty-minute walk or a Three Euro Tram ride away. Aside from steep streets, the area is safe, even a night. The apartments are a clean, good bargain for staying in Lisbon.

The location of hotel is perfect. Easy to access some touristic spots, also to the transportation. There was some noise from the refrigerator though, i had to plug it out while sleeping. The room was clean, bathroom was a bit small to place my own toiletries, still it was all fine for a short stay.

We just returned from a lovely 5 night stay at Dom Sancho 1. The hotel is located in a 5 story characterful building on the second floor, on a wide tree lined avenue that is full of designer boutiques, approx 15 minute walk to where all the tourist restaurants and bars are and 5 minutes to the local metro station, it is in a very good location to explore all the tourist sites from. In the hotel there is a small modern lift, the stairs are tiring if you have luggage. We were greeted by a friendly and helpful lady on reception who checked us in and later when asked gave some excellent recommendations and advise. Our room was at the back, away from the street and breakfast room meaning minimal noise. The room was tastefully decorated with antique style pictures and furniture, with 2 single beds pushed together, a large wardrobe, desk/dressing table and TV, there was also bedside lights to read and a large window with shutters and free air con/heating. The bathroom was a little small but adequate for our stay. The whole room and bathroom was very clean with white towels and a small selection of toiletries. Our beds were made everyday by the maid. We decided to try the bed and breakfast option as it seemed good value and we were not disappointed, good selection, cheeses, ham, bread rolls, sliced bread, boiled eggs, cereals, yoghurt and fruit, also a good section of teas and coffee. We found all the staff friendly and helpful, we were also able to leave our luggage at the hotel on our last day as we had a late evening flight and allowed to use toilets to freshen up before we were picked up. If I had to write a small negative then I would say that the beds were a little hard for me ( but that is just a personal choice ) and maybe the door buzzer ( main door to whole building is closed around 10pm and you had to buzz to be let in) is a little loud and can be heard in the rooms at the back but that is just one tiny complaint. Overall I would recommend this hotel to everyone and would love to return one day.

The hotel is off the beaten track, in a residential part of city. The walk to the city from here is doable, but even if you don’t, Uber ride is affordable. Nice quaint restaurants litters the area. The room size, shower, bed is spot on. So for those that have a partner that likes to bring big suitcases for their make up and pretty lil things… this is the place for value

Loved Wot Patio! Great position close to metros which links to rail and bus. Close to marquis da Pombal and the Avenida da liberdade. So if you’re a walker you can walk anywhere from here or catch the metro. Great local restaurants full of Portuguese one street over from the Avenida. Safe area, clean and friendly. Includes a carb loaded brekky and coffee etc and has a nice breakfast outdoor area. Plus a lounge and TV area Europa football was on when I was there so it was a fun atmosphere. I was made welcome and the young people always had time for a chat with a mature age traveler! I’d stay again! Request a bottom bunk for better comfort and privacy and convenience.

The location of this hotel is far from historic center but 10 minutes walking to the nearest Alameda metro, but first the walking distance to the Alameda metro station is not to closed. Then get off in Rossio metro station and walk in historic center. Then going back the same and going up the hill is not easy as they say. The hotel cleaning was fine. The staff too. Breakfast so so, not for the price of 9 euros p/p. Now the noise from next door rooms was horrible, no respect to anyone and beds not as comfortable. The are does not look to safe, but is ok. Just be early at the hotel.

We landed here from a cancelled easyjet flight, staff were so understanding when we arrived. Breakfast and dinner was included in our stay and was a buffet style with a great selection. Room was very spacious and clean. A 1 minute walk away from metro entrance and supermarket.

This is a rather elegant Pousada which is managed by the Pestana Hotel chain. Checking in at Reception was painless and swift. The staff generally were pleasant and friendly. Our bedroom was on the ground floor overlooking the car park. We needed to keep the windows closed for security and the curtains closed for privacy. The bedroom was pleasantly furnished and in good condition. The bed was king size and very comfy. There was plenty of hanging space for clothing The size of the room left very little space to conveniently store suitcases. The room was equipped with a refrigerator but no mini bar. There was also a television which as far as I could tell only had Portuguese programs. I could not find any English language programs. This did not really a problem because I was staying at this hotel for a limited time and did not want to watch TV. The bathroom was en suite with both a bath and a shower. The bath was useless because it did not have a bath plug and the hotel staff were unable to find a bath plug for me. There was plenty of tepid warm water for washing. However you need to have patience to have hot water. Hot water took a lifetime before it reached our room Our bedroom must have been some distance from the boiler because other guests did not suffer the same problem. A lot of water was wasted while waiting for the hot water. This was not a good way to “Save the Planet” as instructed by a sign / notice on display in the bathroom from the hotel management. The plug in the wash hand basin did not work properly. As you will realise having a wash in this hotel was a bit of an ordeal. Buffet breakfast had lots to chose from with a choice hot and cold dishes. The Lounge bar is comfortable and pleasantly furnished. Apart from the lack of bath plugs, the hotel is in good condition and decorative order.

Neues sauberes sehr modern eingerichtetes Hotel. Leider war das Angebot der Hotelküche sehr ausgedünnt, auf Grund der Corona-Krise, aber auch die verbliebenen Speisen waren meiner Meinung nach den Preis nicht wert. Qualitativ kann mann da außerhalb des Hotels in Relation zum Preis leicht fündig werden, Ansonsten ist das Hotel sehr sauber, sehr modern eingerichtet. Ohne Beschränkungen würde ich dieses Hotel gerade im Sommer empfehlen. Der hauseigene Pool und auch die große moderne Bar laden zum Verweilen ein, was mir leider nicht vergönnt war.

Hotel novo, muito limpo, fiquei admirado por ter só 2 *. Atendimento excelente. Pequeno almoço muito bom. Excelente localização , entre Lisboa e Cascais. Quarto excelente com boas áreas é um excelente chuveiro coisa que eu aprecio. Ideal para passagem em negócios, uma ou duas noites.
