We loved this old school hotel. An attentive staff made the visit top notch and the outstanding restaurant and lovely pool won out for us over the younger, hipper hotels sprouting up in this laid back city. Located on a hilltop near many of the embassies this hotel really is a throw back to a slightly different time. A beautiful... More

Boyfriend surprised me with a trip here and it was just great! Beautiful rooms, lovely surroundings, the breakfast was very good-so nice to be able to have breakfast in the sun! Housekeeping did a great job, twice daily visits and lovely loccitane products. Beds were a little hard, but probably good for your back! Balcony, river view, concierge, everything about... More

The rooms are well-decorated. The staff was very helpful. It is not a big hotel but it is boutique where you can find special things that may be missing in big brand hotels. The rooms are very large and there is a nice swimming pool

I say almost because nothing should be without some need of improvement. In fact I can't think of anything I would change about this hotel. Great service, beautiful surroundings, comfortable and clean rooms and our river view was spectacular. We enjoyed Lisbon although only for a short stay after arriving from Porto and a river cruise on the Douro. We... More

Excellent hotel, all the amenities and service you desire. Special praise to the concierge who was able to help us arrange a city bike tour and made a excellent dinner recommendation and reservation. I really enjoyed the indoor pool with complimentary steam room and sauna facilities. A first class establishment all the way around.

By far too short stay at this incredible "old world" establishment was the only thing I could complain about after my day and one half stay there. From the setting - the exclusive "embassy" section of Lisbon to the spectacular rooms and amenities (a "killer" pool set in a spectacular acres worth of manicured gardens) this hotel ranks with the...

By far one of the finest hotels I've ever stayed at. Service was outstanding and an extremely helpful and competent staff. Location was only minutes away from heart of city and an easy cab ride.

This is an 'old world' hotel with all the good things that implies. Superb service, lovely big rooms with large bathrooms and nice balconies.

It's hard to describe this hotel without falling into the trap of using superlatives that through extensive overuse in modern commercials have become nigh meaningless. Nevertheless this hotel qualifies for all of them: Amazing, wonderful, awesome. We booked this hotel for a midweek (Mon-Fri) stay in Lisbon and it turned out to be one of the best holidays ever.
