Location and what's nearby

R. das Cozinhas 2, 1100-181 Lisboa, Portugal

With the hotel’s unrivalled location in the Alfama district, you’ll have plentiful landmark attractions right on your doorstep - starting with the Moorish São Jorge Castle, of course, whose fortifications date as far back as the 1st Century BC. While in Lisbon, take some time to enjoy a riverside stroll, people-watch on the bustling Praça do Comércio, feast on street food-style bites and drinks at the Time Out Market, and hop onto the Santa Justa Lift for lovely views across the city. Come evening, head straight into the Bairro Alto neighbourhood for bars and clubs aplenty.
