Guest house is a 10 minute walk from the historic district and just a minute away from the iconic Lisbon funicular. The area has plenty of restaurants and a park which gives a great view of the city.

Good size, very clean, great shower. Sadly it was very noisy at night. We were there Saturday to Monday and every night the bar in the alley outside our window had people drinking, partying very loudly until 3am every night if our stay. Such a a shame as room was great and Bairro Alto was a good location

We had a great stay in Lisbon and this hotel was perfect. It was centrally located and close to great restaurants, shops, train stations and mor. My surprise and delight was that Right across from our hotel room was this fabulous park- a miradouros with a great view, food, drinks and music.

Great location in Lisbon to walk to lots of destinations. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby, very short walk. The apartment was simple but all we needed. We really appreciated the storage lockers provided and a WC to use when we collected our luggage. Thank you -this was really great service.

Clean, fresh, modern room with all of the basics in an amazing location. Bed and linens were all comfy and new.Tram and park with an amazing view right across the street. Stores, laundromat and restaurants close by. Access was easy. Nothing fancy and location is self hosted. Just a nice clean comfortable affordable room in a gorgeous neighborhood. Highly recommend if you want something simple and affordable in an amazing neighborhood.

This is a lovely historic house in Bairro Alto. It makes an excellent base for a visit to Lisboa. Make sure you carry earplugs for use at night. Rooms cleaned daily. Plenty of buses and tram stops close by. Lots of interesting narrow streets with cafes and arty/clothing boutiques etc.

Bring ear plugs and more ear plugs.

If you want to stay up all night, I recommend this place highly. Park across the street was noisy, street noise was atrocious, and my wife and I didn't get a wink of sleep.

Great room

Beautiful space in the heart of Bairro Alto.The guesthouse is centrally located in the heart of everything, but that also means people will be partying right outside all night. The triple pane windows and shutters kept out most of the noise though. Room was larger than expected with lots of natural light.

Loved our stay here, it is in a very busy area and can be loud in the evenings but it didn’t bother us at all. Clean, safe and the building itself was quiet. Very responsive whenever we needed anything. Located directly across a wonderful viewpoint and lots of shops and restaurants nearby. It’s at the top of a huge hill (like everything in Lisbon) but we would walk down and then take a bolt back up if we didn’t feel like doing the walk back. Highly recommend.

This is a comfortable and simple property. It is extremely well located to the downtown neighborhoods and immediately adjacent to the very lovely and elegant Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara. The adjacent side streets are very popular and loud at night for young tourist looking for cheap drinks, but the windows and walls were well insulated to keep most of the noise out. If you are a light sleeper, you should consider bringing a white noise machine. AC in room was a great feature. Shampoo and toiletry amenities are minimal, so consider bringing your own if you are particular.

Accommodation was great . We arrived but only had one access code. Phoned the owners and the acces code was there almost immediately. Very comfortable room. First reasonably quiet but the next night was the Eve of a national holiday so the party was on. Considering where they were partying it was quiet. Very easy to gey to. At the top of a funicular. Easy to get around Lisbon from there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I loved that it was essentially self-service. No front desk. No staff other than the cleaners who came in the morning. The rooms felt clean. The bed and bedding were comfortable. The only thing I didn't love was the layout of the bathroom. It's not the most ergonomic. One thing I will call out though is that it's right next to a lot of bars, and it can be quiet noisy at night. I was still able to sleep, so it wasn't an issue, but if you are more sensitive to this kind of thing, maybe you will want to consider a different option, but in terms of location, this place can't be beat.
