    charming boutique hotel near historic landmarks and beautiful parks

    I had a lovely stay here where I could easily walk to the iconic Castelo de Sao Jorge just a few steps away and enjoy stunning views of Lisbon from the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, which is almost a 15-minute stroll. it felt like I was truly immersed in the history and beauty of the city. This peaceful haven provided a fantastic air conditioning in my room, which was a blessing after a day of exploring all the nearby attractions.

    inconvenient setup

    I absolutely loved the peacocks roaming the courtyard! 🦚 It added such a unique charm to breakfast. The only downside was the noisy bathroom door in my room. Overall, a wonderful experience!

    charming, charming, charming

    This charming hotel provides an unforgettable experience right next to a castle! I loved the delicious buffet breakfast served until noon among the charming peacocks wandering around the courtyard. Plus, the complimentary port wine in the room was a delightful personal touch that made me feel welcomed and at home!

    no coffee maker

    I enjoyed my stay, especially when I found peacocks roaming around the courtyard. It was quite entertaining each morning during breakfast. The location made it easy to explore nearby attractions, and the staff was helpful with every request. I appreciated the good coffee and tea options available throughout the day.

    The bathroom door in my room did not close properly, and the absence of a coffee maker was inconvenient for me, as I prefer having my coffee first thing in the morning.

    Charming stay with delightful peacocks

    I had a fantastic time at this historic hotel, especially enjoying breakfast outdoors with the cheerful peacocks wandering around. The location near the castle made exploring Lisbon very convenient, and the staff were incredibly welcoming, always ready to share great local tips. While the room was beautifully designed, I did wish for a coffee maker to enjoy my morning brew right away.

    delicious breakfasts
    cozy garden
    loud environment

    Our group of friends had an amazing time! We visited São Jorge Castle and explored the charming Alfama district. The hotel has a lovely garden where we enjoyed our breakfasts, and the free pastries and drinks were such a nice touch. The friendly staff even helped us store our bags while we wandered the streets one last time.

    One downside was the noise. the hardwood floors made it a bit loud at times, especially during check-ins.

    stunning views
    thoughtful touches
    hilly location
    limited dining options
    train delays

    Staying in the Alfama room was a delight, offering stunning views of the castle and lively peacocks wandering the grounds. The thoughtful touches like a complimentary decanter of port wine added a special charm to the room. Although the location is hilly, the picturesque walkways made it a rewarding experience. I particularly enjoyed the fried fish served during breakfast, which was a delightful start to the day.
