Fantastic Stay in Prime Location

central location attentive service satisfying breakfast

The location is central. It is close to public transport (the Baixo and Chiado subway stop). The building once served as a palatial city residence. The staff was very pleasant and helpful with local tips. I found the breakfast very satisfying (I especially liked the fresh juice!). My room was spacious and quiet. It included all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The customer service was first class and very attentive to all my needs. I appreciated the quick responses and helpful attitude of the staff. I enjoyed a great breakfast each morning. The staff was super friendly. They offered helpful service. I highly recommend this location (I will definitely return on my next visit).

The hotel location is very good. I had easy access to many places. There are many restaurants close to the hotel. The breakfast had a great variety and the food was fresh. The hotel even provided umbrellas that I used during the rain.

The building is old. I could hear the water pipes. The doors are not sturdy. I could hear conversations in the hallway.

Mixed Experience with Several Issues

large cockroach malfunctioning air conditioning

The staff was courteous.

I encountered a major issue, a cockroach inside the room was unusually large. The air conditioning was set only for heating. The room felt stuffy. A bad smell from downstairs also stopped me from opening the window.
