"Set in a beautifully restored 1865 building, this three-star boutique keeps a historic atmosphere with antique Portuguese furniture and elegant details. The location is great — just a couple of blocks west of Avenida da Liberdade — and there’s a little kiosk in the park across the street where I enjoy a drink and people-watching. Breakfast isn’t included but is worth ordering: a nice buffet from fresh pastries to omelets served in a cute breakfast room. Rooms are cozy and classy with hardwood floors, unique artwork, antique furniture, chandeliers, and Portuguese tile around the large windows and in the spacious bathrooms. In-room amenities include AC, bathrobes and slippers, a Nespresso machine, a flatscreen TV, an in-room safe, and a minibar. I think you get great value here and you’re within walking distance of many main sights." - Matthew Kepnes
