“This hotel strikes a balance between its 18th-century bones and a fresh, modern spirit, especially in its bold décor. Its location places you squarely in the heart of Lisbon, steps from key sights. The bar is a highlight, and it's the kind of place where small details-like a surprise birthday bottle-make a real difference.”

Adequate but Disappointing Service

uninterested staff insufficient storage
I found the staff largely unhelpful. The receptionists seemed preoccupied with their mobile phones rather than assisting guests. Getting a simple coffee at the bar was like a HUGE inconvenience. Therefore, I went elsewhere. The room also lacked sufficient storage space. There was no closet or drawers.

The room was quite small, which I found annoying after a few days. The bathroom felt cramped. It was hard to move around. The shower was also a bit of a struggle, I felt restricted. I noticed some stains on the carpet, and it wasn't very appealing. I think they need to clean or replace that soon (or at least pay more attention to details).
