Hotel location was great but no front desk staff. Restaurant basically attached to the room you could see people through the shower. Restaurant didn’t close until late and very loud. Wouldn’t recommend.

We had the opportunity to stay in Lisbon at Santa Bica for about 5 days and it was honestly incredible and truly the best stay we have ever had. From the moment we got there earlier than check in, we were greeted with such sweet and welcoming staff. We were able to keep our bags in our room earlier and explore the city. We met the manager Bruno, and it truly felt like you were being welcomed by a friend. Our room was so clean and it was so cool that our room opened up to the restaurant balcony and the room had a cold water waiting for us which was so needed after the hills in Lisbon! The wifi and the TV was spotty at times but we honestly didn’t care as we were always exploring outside the room and were just so incredibly happy to be there. The breakfast in the morning was truly our favourite part. Tatiana was the best way we started the day. From the intentional and thoughtful food options, conversation, it truly was unlike any other experience we had before. For example, it was my husbands birthday on one day and they somehow remembered and brought something out for him! Even when we had dinner at their adjoining restaurant we were met with such kindness and thoughtfulness (and the dinner was our best bite in Lisbon). We were so sad to leave but now anytime we come to Lisbon we will be coming back only to stay here. Overall, any of the staff here are wonderful and if you have the opportunity, you gotta stay here!

This place is in a great location - 10 min walk from the Baixa-Chiado metro stop, 5 min walk to Time Out Market and 20 mins walk from Praça do Comércio - the waterfront plaza. The steep streets are not for those who don't like walking in the heat but then most of Lisbon is like that - all part of its charm. The room was lovely - clean and comfortable. The best thing about staying here was Tatiana - I had the friendliest reception and service throughout my stay from her, nothing was too much trouble and she made me feel so welcome, with really authentic, fantastic hospitality and the breakfast she made for me out on the terrace was incredible! I would happily stay here again.

The property is located in a corner of very steep hills, and the streets are private, so cabs are not able to take you in front if hotel. With luggage, its a bit of a hike. However all over Lisbon, its the same terrain. The hotel front desk is not 24 hr, however we arrived early and hotel staff was there to greet us and allowed us to check in early! The staff is super nice, accommodating, and helpful. The hotel is small, only 4 guest rooms. Our room fit 3 of us, and has doors that lead right outside a terrace where they served breakfast. But in the evening, it also serves as their main outdoor seating area for their restaurant. So it can be noisy, we didnt mind. The restaurant in the evening is very busy and vibey. We had yummy food and drinks, it was very nice! The bed is a bit hard and the air conditioner in our room wasnt working well. So it feel warm while sleeping. Otherwise we had a great time here. Loved it.

Lovely rooms, great breakfast, wonderful staff - going above and beyond to help - lovely terrace and smoking area. The girl who made breakfast and cleaned rooms was amazing! Great place, just make sure to consider taxi service, as some are unable to go down that street and taxis are not real reliable and it’s quite a street to walk up or down to get transportation especially with luggage.

Very Unique property "inside" of a really fabulous restaurant. Great food and all the staff were very helpful (they even had takeaway breakfast for us at 4 am when we left for our flight! Great walkable location in Barrio Alto--the only drawback was the distance to parking and lots of stairs to get there. We will return!

A 5-star experience

If you're going to Lisbon and you don't stay at Santa Bica, you missed out of something. Santa Bica is a ***** hotel. They had a staff of 5 persons, and everyone was a true star - so it was a 5-star accommodation 😉 The breakfast was great as was the terrace. Great location as well. I recommend this facility 👍👍👍

Santa Bica was a great stay and we are glad we came here and it’s mainly because of our lovely housekeeper Tatianna. This property is on a hill so to get to the main street or to get an uber you either have to walk up hill about 5-7 mins or very downhill, so be aware of that when you have baggage or if you have accessibility issues. This guesthouse does not have a reception; it’s basically a restaurant that has 4 guest rooms and they have a housekeeper who is here in the morning/afternoon so when you arrive make sure you have your details to check in in advance. We were having issues with our Expedia connection and weren’t able to get our codes to enter, the staff was trying really hard to get in contact with us and we eventually used WhatsApp to coordinate. The rooms themselves are clean and organized but are small, essentially and bed and bathroom. Our bathroom and shower backed onto their patio so you need to make sure the curtains to the windows are closed at all times. There aren’t any irons/scissors/other items that you get in a regular hotel so you have to ask Tatiana, who does her best to accommodate. The breakfast is really good and the staff was attentive and really tries to give the best experience they could. Overall loved this guesthouse the staff was so kind and the location is fantastic!

A sleepless night at Santa Bica

In my search, I filtered out 3-star hotels and higher and found Santa Bica to be one of the few ones close to the city center. It was actually close to the city center, but it was not exactly a hotel. Santa Bica is a renovated residence in a very dense area with narrow and steep alleys. A rather noisy funicular passes just in front of the building. I faced accumulated garbage in the surroundings and a big crowd of drunk teenagers right outside the residence who were there almost the whole night screaming and making it impossible to sleep. I heard later on from the lady in charge that this was because of the specific occasion in July. The room was clean and all requirements were in place. But it was very small and the toilet and bathroom were separated from the breakfast area with fullheight windows and curtains - which didn’t feel that comfortable. The reception was inside a small room and the way to the rooms was a narrow twisted corridor... The lady in charge was though helpful. After knowing about me not being happy about the place, she admited that I cancel my booking for the second night. Overall: if you are a party guy and would like to be close to the city center at any price, then this could be choice for you. I would itherwise recommend real hotels which are located a bit off the center.

El desayuno fue muy bueno, pero aún más la atención de Tatiana que nos atendió. La habitación era amplia y hasta un sillón tenía. La cama fue cómoda y tenía aire acondicionado. En general fue buen lugar. En la noche se escucha todo el ruido del restaurante, ya que las mesas dan a las puertas de las habitaciones. Todo el personal fue muy amable. Considerar que por la zona no es posible estacionar, y el estacionamiento más cercano está a 2 cuadras en subida empinada.

Koselig Gjestehus med kun fire rom, utrolig hyggelig personal både til frokost og velkomst. Mye skjarm, men vinduene på rommene gikk ut mot terrassen og restauranten. Det gikk fint for vår del da vi ikke var hjemme på hotellet før sent på kvelden. Nydelig utsikt fra frokostterrasse ut mot sjøen.

Small and comfy.

Cozy little place, I believe it only has 4 rooms in total; very comfortable though. Our room had a nice size bed, lots of channels and nice stand-on shower bathroom. The lady that helped us was super nice, very friendly and accommodating. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived (it was earlier than check in); but she cleaned the room and was able to let us in earlier. She made us breakfast at arrival and was delicious homemade food, including jam and yogurt. Would recommend but be aware it's small and it's on a very steep hill - as most of Lisbon :)
