"Very quiet and comfortable and well located. The rooms are small as is typical in Europe. The shower was great and I liked that there was a lighted make up mirror and a full length mirror. Lighting was also good in the bathroom. There was a complimentary bottle of wine and water. The only thing that is unusual is you have to turn in your metal key every time you leave and you pick it back up when you return. I would stay there again. The staff had very good recommendations for everything Lisbon."

Streets like Rua Augusta are pedestrian-friendly and lead to various shops and restaurants. This area is the great base for first-time visitors who want to be close to many of Lisbon's main attractions and have excellent public transport connections.For couples looking for a romantic and slightly quieter experience, the Alfama district, located on one of Lisbon's seven hills just east of Baixa, is an excellent choice.
