Pros

Historic building features urban art by Bordallo II on the terrace

Floor-to-ceiling windows in the lounge offer views of the awakening city

Situated in a pedestrian-only area of Alfama

Complimentary WiFi throughout the property

Cons

Some attractions require a 20-minute walk

“This hotel stands out for its Alfama location, putting you right in Lisbon's historic heart, near the castle and vibrant plazas. The blend of traditional architecture with modern artistic touches, especially Bordallo II's work, makes it memorable. I think the welcome gifts and local snacks offer an especially nice touch.”
