Catarina is amazing! She is so friendly and went above and beyond to help us.
The lobby needs some repairs and a little design sense. The bannister looks in need of repair

Very Good
Main bedroom was massive and so was the bed. Lovely old building - you could feel the history
Fabulous location right near the centre, lots of great restaurants nearby
Breakfast was "just ok" ! Breakfast room is VERY small and when busy it was difficult to move around and access the buffet. Coffee and cooked food on the buffet was cold
Due to the small nature of the breakfast room/buffet lots of items were always empty and replenishment was slow meaning you had a lot of time hanging around and waiting
Bathroom was quite small, desk was quite small

The location was great! The bathroom was a decent size.
The room was facing an ugly courtyard in the center of the building. Absolutely no light came in and the room lighting in the room was very dim. We spent as little time as possible there. The breakfast did not look appetizing to me.

Such friendly staff for our short stay. We were met late in the evening and offered a drink with some great recommendations for a short stay. The hotel is in the perfect location, a short walk to the main sights, very central but a quiet little square with some great restaurant options. The room itself was stunning. Huge bedroom, with a separate wardrobe area and luxurious ensuite. If you look out the window to the left you’ll see the castle (lit up at night). For us breakfast was perfect, fresh pastries, eggs, fruits, yoghurt, granola and a few other hot options too. Thank you for a fabulous stay.
For us it was perfect.

Very beautiful hotel in Chiado, very close to Carmo museum, close to a Tram 28 station and to the metro station, the area was very nice and chic. The rooms look exactly like in the photos, big, clean and quiet. The breakfast was very good and there were many options and the staff was lovely.

Poor
Location was good
Too loud, absolutely no soundproofing. You can hear music in the bar beneath and every step of people above.
Also the “corkage” is just a big joke. It is forbidden to take drinks and food to the room, or they will charge you extra. The room cost was more than 200€ per night and this was not worth the money. This so called “corkage” should already be included in this price.

The stuff were super helpful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious. The location couldn’t be better. Our room was lovely, overlooking a charming square
Our original room was overlooking a very unpleasant back yard with loud a generator right outside the window. I am suffering from fear of pipes, generators and boilers, so couldn’t possibly stay there, although the room itself was lovely. Luckily the stuff were very understanding and found an alternative GORGEOUS room facing the front.

Very Good
The desk staff was very friendly, especially Katarina. The bed was extremely comfortable and the water pressure was excellent. Location was central, we walked most places we wanted to see. The eggs at breakfast were wonderul.
Breakfast room staff could be more friendly, the food was fairly basic. Even on the 'first floor', there are 2 flights of stairs to climb. It is a very old building so you just have to understand that.

The staff were very friendly. My favourite thing about this hotel is its character and size. I’m not keen on staying in large establishments, this is a converted section of a very old building and in total there are only nine rooms.
Yes, it is old, and some noise travels, but the character really makes it worth the day. The rooms are gorgeous and very large, generous proportions.
Despite the age of the building, the soundproofing of the windows and shutters are quite good. We had the windows open in the afternoons when we returned from our walks, and the square felt quite loud. But the windows did a great job of shutting that out at night time.
The staff were extremely kind and left a small bottle of wine and a slice of cake, with a hand- written note for my husband‘s birthday.
That extra touch would make me come back there any time.
The breakfast is small, but perfectly adequate. Hot food includes scrambled eggs and bacon, there are pastries, yoghurt and fruit available.
There is a kettle and coffee maker in the room, the water bottle is replaced daily. There is a mini bar, which we did not require, but I did use the fridge keep some milk in, as being Irish and British we like real tea.
Robes and slippers are also provided, The shower had great pressure and was always really warm.
It was enough to keep us going, the breakfast room is so small and cute and feels more personal than some of the big hotels.
The location is just around the corner from an underground station, as well as tram stops on the square. Just FYI- you can easily get the metro/underground here from the airport, only one line change.
We found this to be a perfect base and did a lot of walking. Some restaurants nearby are excellent, I would recommend the little wine bar next-door to the right (as you stand facing the hotel) and the Asian restaurant to the left.
The only issue I found with the sound, was the fact that there are apartments above which I assume people live in. I could hear someone above me moving around and noises like chairs tracking on the floor. It didn’t bother me too much and I went back to sleep, but just be aware this is an old building and it only occupies one and a half floors.
There is no lift up to the room, not an issue at all for us. They do also offer help with the bags, but please bear in mind if you have mobility issues or are a little older and struggle with stairs.

Location was perfect and central to everything. Staff was phenomenal in assisting with all our needs, especially Catarina. Breakfast which was included in our stay was amazing. If you like small boutique hotels with great customer service and a perfect location then this is the place for you in Lisbon for your stay. Only nine rooms !! I cant say enough about this place. It was our 1st time to Lisbon and our 1st stop. It set the whole tone for the rest of the trip
Nothing. It was perfect

PERFECT location. Seriously. Restaurants. Sites. History. Beautiful room
It’s an older hotel with updates. So everything was very nice. You need to know there’s no elevator. OK for us just FYI.

Bordalo Palace is in a super location with good restaurants, bars and shops just on the doorstep and transport options also very close by. Also a very quiet location despite having a restaurant just below our window but it closed at a reasonable time. Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable with all necessary amenities. Breakfast was a mixed array each morning but also tasty. Staff were excellent throughout from check in to local tips and help g with extra coffee each morning. No hesitation to fully recommend.
Thank you for your information!
