Casa Balthazar

Brilliant hotel, the best location to enjoy Lisbon in our opinion! We had a beautiful room with a view of the city and the castle and felt like we were in the middle of the action although we were actually in a very sweet and quiet neighbourhood with lovely little restaurants and pretty shops. The hotel was spotless, felt luxurious and has an outdoor heated pool and a spa which we did not use as we didn’t have time but those people who love such things would welcome this extra facility and not only that, it was private, in that you had to book it and then you could have it to yourself! The breakfast was perfect and was given in a beautiful room. Our room was huge and had a seating area, giant windows to appreciate the amazing views and a tiny hidden kitchen area to make coffee. Bathroom was luxurious too. Staff members were excellent and nothing was too much trouble. We highly recommend this place. The location is excellent and it’s a 5 - 10 minute walk down into the town centre where there was a pretty Christmas market. Taxis are cheap, but we also walked down to The Time Out Market ( not worth visiting ) and got a bus to Belem where we had a brilliant 3 hour walking tour - also booked through trip advisor! Great 3 night break! Thank you Casa Balthazar!

What a fabulous place to stay in the city! The hotel was beautiful and our room very spacious and comfortable with so many thoughtful touches. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast and our time in the spa. Excellent value!

We really enjoyed our stay here. Our room was huge and well appointed. The bed and other furniture were very comfortable and the housekeeping was perfect.||There were a number of inviting public areas, and good coffee was available all of the time. The included breakfast was very nice.||In sum, a perfect stay we are likely to repeat

Casa Balthazar was a delight! Great rooms-large, comfortable and ours had a wonderful view of the city. It's in a great location allowing us to get to many items of interest by walking. The staff are very helpful and friendly. They provided good recommendations and helped us make reservations. The breakfasts are delicious too. If I ever have the opportunity to return to Lisbon, this would be my hotel of choice.

I love my stay here and wish I could have stays at Casa Balthazar my entire trip in the Lisbon area! The service and people working here are outstanding, and it feels family run with very personal attention. The location, rooms, and aesthetic is SO utterly charming, with Clean and comfortable beds + amazing shower. The only thing I’d change is a stronger and colder A/C unit that did not seem to run correctly. But other than that, I highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Casa Balthazar is absolutely beautiful. It is centrally located, the bedrooms are spacious, with a no. having lovely views towards the castle and across the City roof tops, the breakfast is excellent and the staff offer a 'service with a smile'. I cannot recommend this place more highly. You will not be disappointed.

Very nice centrally located boutique hotel just uphill from the Rossio train station with tons of restaurants and bars nearby. It’s on a narrow dead end street so it can be challenging to reach by car. It’s a compound of several buildings and they have a spa and a small outdoor pool. There’s free delicious cake every afternoon. The staff was friendly and the service was good. WiFi was so-so. The morning breakfast buffet had decent choices. Our room was quiet with a comfy bed but it had a couple of minor issues - the rug needed cleaning, no way to ventilate the bathroom and there were some nails in the floor that stuck up slightly that we had to avoid stepping on (we informed the hotel, they said they would fix it but hadn’t a few days later). If you leave your bags after check out, make sure someone will be there to let you in later, we had to buzz the intercom multiple times but after a few minutes we got let in.

The hotel should had been glamorous and extravagant, but it’s a bit tired now. Overall, the environment, the decorations, the services are good. The location is closed to the busiest part of the city but you have to walk up a steep rubbled road that might get slippery on rainy days. The breakfast was nice and fresh. The shower however was covered by mould and the hinge for shower head was not holding and one had to hold it. We stayed in the hotel for 5 nights. On the second morning, we were waken up by the mowing machine before 9am. On the 5th morning, some maintenance works were producing annoying banging noise around 8am next to our room. When we went out, there was a pungent smell of thinner. We went down to asked about when that work would last and was told that it would be finished around 4pm, and told us that if we need a space for rest, they could arrange that for us. My question is why they didn’t do this ahead of schedule and ask us the night before if we would like to change room to avoid that nuisance.
