Alpalhao Holidays from AU$3,457

Has good staff and good interior finishes making it very serviceable at a mid-price range with an excellent location. Rooms are very small which is fine given location but it stops this hotel from qualifying as luxurious. Only real downfall is that I would have expected electrical outlets on both sides of the bed at this price/service level.

Good location clean room. Shower was a bit slow needed more power. AC didn’t work to good. But overall a good stay.

Lovely hotel in a great position in Alfama, can get to most places on foot if you can handle the hills/steps. Staff were really friendly and helpful particularly Carol on breakfast duty and Cape and Sara on front desk. Gym and spa area are a bit limited but with all of the walking the gym wasn’t really necessary. Breakfast was really good with a range of options and choice of a variety of egg-based dishes also available. A revelation for me was the availability of chilled port! I’ve only ever drank port at room temperature. Finally a tour of the museum is a must, absolutely fascinating.

We had a delayed and late check in (that went super smoothly). Reception made a great dinner (which was LATE) option super close that was lovely. Our room was one with a water view which was nice. Breakfast was very good with sweet and savory options. Bar visit the next day was nice, bartender terrific. It is a neat concept hotel. Fun. Staff helpful across every detail and answered all questions readily. Would return and recommend. It is walking distance to downtown which is nice - a little off the beaten path.

Great hotel, staff were amazing
