Lovely hotel in the heart of the old town

Pros: Real feel of comfort and quality
Cons: Entrance looks like a pair of garage doors which doesn’t do this hotel any favours
Location: At the top of the old town which is an absolutely fantastic part of the City
We stayed here for a night just before Christmas 2017. Reasonably priced hotel in the castle walls which has ben tastefully refurbished to a very high standard. Staff were lovely and the breakfast was great. Highly recommend this hotel!

Honeymoon stay

Pros: Attention to detail and the staff.
Cons: We cannot think of anything: please continue to do everything you do, including the little details of the candles and the flowers and lemons outside.
Location: Location is great if you don't mind walking up and down hills - which we loved!
We had a truly wonderful stay at the historic Solar do Castelo for our recent honeymoon. Nothing was overlooked: the room they upgraded us to at the very top of the hotel boasted beautiful views of the castle and the bay, the breakfast offered great variety and was set in the stunning secluded courtyard, and the staff were helpful, friendly and professional. There were candles lighting all through he hotel in the evenings, and the outdoor fire pit and blankets were so romantic. We cannot thank the staff enough for making our honeymoon so special.

Charming boutique hotel

Nestled in the castle walls, this hotel was an ideal base for a city break in Lisbon - you are sight seeing from the moment you wake up! All the staff were extremely helpful (24 hour room service), and those on reception spoke fluent French, Spanish and English as well as Portugese. Nicely furnished, spacious communal area for breakfast, and general relaxing - with tea, coffee, water and biscuits freely available throughout the day, and an honesty bar for soft and alcholic drinks. The courtyard provided an ideal spot for eating breakfast outside on an autumn morning. Breakfasts were Euro 15, but set you up for the day - help yourself to cheeses, cold & cured meats, bread selection, cooked breakfast, cereals, fruit, yogurts, tea, coffee, juices and even champagne. Our double room on the ground floor was very small, but comfortable and well equipped. It looked directly onto the narrow street by the castle - too narrow for traffic noise to be any bother to us. On one night some locals chatted by our window until about 11.00pm but were not rowdy and it is their city! A complimentary decanter of port was a welcome addition. Our aircon/heating stopped working while we were there, and we were immediately given a substitute room heater, without any delay. Everything else worked perfectly.

Historical Tranquility

A fab little hotel right up the hill overlooking Lisbon. The hotel itself is gorgeous, stone walls and an abundance of character. Rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean, with near silent aircon! Fab little courtyard for breakfast and just lazing around in the sun watching the birds flutter around the fountain. Surrounding cobbled streets are all very narrow so many taxi drivers reluctant to go to the hotel door. Do not attempt to drive a rental vehicle, you'll damage it for sure. Plenty of bars and eateries close by, walk to the coast is approx. 1.5 miles: 20 mins all downhill, which means uphill on return, and that means lots and lots of steps! Castel S Jorge is literally on the doorstep, great to sit within the walls and watch the sun go down.

Ein schönes Hotel in der Altstadt gleich neben der Burg .Wir schätzten es sehr bei offenem Fenster schlaffen zu können ohne dass Strassenlärm hinein dringt.Es ist dass ruhigste Hotel dass wir je hatten dazu sehr schöne Zimmer ,bequeme Betten ,sehr ,sehr sauber(für uns enorm wichtig)Das Bad ist etwas älter aber total ok und eben auch sauber.Die Wäsche wurde täglich gewechselt(für uns nicht täglich nötig).Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend ,diskret und hilfsbereit .Morgenbuffet lässt keine Wünsche offen.Tagsüber können sich die Gäste Tee und Kaffe selbst machen und Gebäck steht auch zu freien Verfügung .Der Hit ist der Garten ,es schaut alles so aus wie auf den Bildern , wunderschön ,riecht frisch und ist wahnsinnig schön anzusehen wenn abends die Kerzen brennen.Wenn wir wieder in Lissabon sind werden wir sicher dieses Hotel bevorzugen.

Dans le château!

Personnel très chaleureux qui se met en quatre pour faire plaisir.Situé dans quartier historique très intéressant, mais "perché " comme souvent à Lisbonne. L'Alfama est le point de départ de beaucoup de ballades intéressantes et un des quartiers le plus charmant de Lisbonne.Il faut de bonnes jambes en revanche,car l'hôtel est sur un point culminant, mais accessible aussi en bus et en taxi.
