I couldn't have asked for a better location; right in the heart of everything touristy. The small yet well-designed rooms were overlooking the main square, a true 'European City' experience. Keeping the curtains drawn was a minor inconvenience but necessary. The service was incredibly courteous, helpful, and professional, with a personal touch of walking us around to point out key areas. The dining experience offered exceptional choices, including gluten-free options. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay truly comfortable and enjoyable.

The hotel is in the absolute center of Lisbon, offering a perfect location just steps away from the metro and surrounded by shopping and restaurants. The rooms, though small, come with high-end amenities like Nespresso machines and L'Occitane products, making them cozy for a short stay. The service is pleasant with staff going about their tasks with a warm smile, but adaptors are not readily available. Dining options are superb with fresh homemade food and a good variety, though traditional bread may be a bit basic. The facilities are simple yet adequate for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were tiny and not especially 'design', but surprisingly quiet and very well air-conditioned. The location overlooking Rossio was appealing, but being on the first floor facing a very busy street had its drawbacks.
