Memmo Alfama Hotel Lisboa

This hotel is adorable! The room had a wonderful view of the ocean and opened to allow the cool ocean breezes on a hot summer day. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful. The rooftop views are beautiful day and night. The breakfast is amazing! If you are a breakfast person, definitely get the breakfast with the room. They are very in-tune to gluten free needs as well! The hotel is tucked away down an alley so out of the hustle and bustle, but convenient to everything!

We stayed at this gorgeous boutique hotel for 3 nights and loved every moment. Nicole on front desk is a stand out! We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived and nothing felt too much trouble. Nicole’s dinner recommendation of a local restaurant ‘Discreto’ proved excellent. The terrace and pool have spectacular views- the fact the pool is red to blend in with the Lisbon rooftops is special in itself. We stayed in a terrace room which was gorgeous- no better way than to open your terrace door at 6am each morning to catch sunrise over the river and Lisbon city scape. The free walking tour offered by the Hotel and led by local guide Frederico was invaluable and helped shape how we made the most of our time in beautiful Lisbon. We loved interacting with the breakfast staff- special thanks to David and Monica (?- sorry if that’s not correct). My husband is coeliac and he claims the gluten free baguette he had each morning at Memmo even surpassed the gf bread at the Michelin Star restaurant we ate at in Lisbon! The hotel is close to the tram line and tucked away down a quiet street so you can experience life in the midst of the city but feel a little pocket of peacefulness. Everything is within walking distance but Lisbon’s streets are notoriously steep, so luckily the tram is close to hand if needed. Highly recommend this hotel.

Memmo Alfama is a beautiful and characteristic property with all the amenities you need for a super comfortable stay in Lisbon. We particularly enjoyed the rooftop bar where we enjoyed a healthy, fresh breakfast (and some pastel de natas cannot be missed of course ;)) and had several pre- and after dinner drinks. The room itself is super clean and stylish. Staff is very attentive and always happy to help. Overall, we loved our stay here and would definitely recommend. Not only because of all mentioned above, but also because the location in Alfama is great and has lots of nice food and drink spots close by!

The Memmo Alfamma is a fantastic hotel in the heart of old Lisbon. |The rooms are quite small (it’s a city centre hotel) but very comfortable and nicely decorated. The breakfast is delicious and the staff are, without exception, friendly, professional and extremely helpful.|The rooftop makes it for me - great place to relax after a hot day up and down those Lisbon hills with a lovely little plunge pool for guests, a great and well stocked bar and a good selection of tasty tapas - which they were able to provide with gluten free bread.|Highly recommended!

Love this place! Hidden away in the most charming neighbourhood, you are warmly welcomed on arrival. Everything is explained to you. Even though we booked the cheaper room, it was so cute and quiet, with lovely finishings. The Terrace was a beautiful place to relax with food or drinks, with an amazing view of Lisbon to be seen. We will be back for sure!

If you stay at this hotel I can recommend terrace room 17 . You can sit outside your room and enjoy the lovely views over Alfamma and beyond to the River Tagus.⁹ Staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good with plenty of choices. Dining in the evening is not so good. We only tried one night but were not impressed. We found a few restaurants quite close.One was Le Petit Cafe. If you go there try the duck. It is delightful. Otherwise check out tripadvisor as there are many possibilities

A lovely design conscious hotel with spacious comfortable rooms - including superb suites with amazing sea views. Heated outdoor pool with clever seating areas to protect you from the wind. The breakfast choice is superb catering for all tastes. The staff were attentive and friendly.

Excellent staff and super helpful. The location is also great.|The hotel has an amazing roof top|with great views. |The breakfast needs some help, and room is very small. The shower area was amazing and huge but our view was not that great from the small balcony.|But overall, excellent hotel and I do recommend.

Wow, what an experience! The view is incredible on this terrace. A full view of Lisbon from the red bridge on one side to another bridge in the distance on the other side. Stunning! And the tapas was also delicious as well. We ordered several dishes and shared them all. For my daughter, the churros were the star of her dinner! It's amazing, check it out!

This terrace restaurant is inside a hotel and has a very nice view. The sautéed tuna was very tasty and the sautéed cod fish and shrimp was excellent. I would come again for both the view and food

Walked in without reservation for their Fado night on Tuesday and they were so nice and accommodating. Rooftop terrace was beautiful and peaceful. Food and music was excellent!

This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Beautiful terrace with a pool overlooking Alfama, with a stunning view. The rooms are well-appointed and stylish. The breakfasts are incredible with a wide range of delicious and wholesome foods. Everything feels as if there's attention to detail. Friendly and accommodating staff too. I would love to come back soon.

If my review seems like a 'fake engagement' or whatever is meant to describe events that never happened, I welcome a reader to look at the details associated with my stay there and ask, 'Does this seem to be a made up story?' It is not and I have the receipts and the photos to suggest I 'lived there' as presented. Funny how companies operate as all these people needed to do was to say that they appreciate my detailed descriptions and they're implementing some sort of quality control measures. If this hotel wants to claim that I am telling a lie or 'presenting untruths' I believe they need to sue me so we can meet in a court of law. I have no issues with the owner or management of this hotel nor am I engaged in this industry in any way whatsoever. I do not know the name of the owner although I believe someone told me a name about 8 years ago. I invited any reader here to read what I wrote about this hotel in the entry below. I like this hotel (a lot)! I even recommend it to friends and to family members. What I have written recalls my own unique encounter at one particular time period. Why avoid the maintenance that will need to be dealt with in the future? Why attack the messenger? Owner: Have you considered responding to these specific allegations?

We had drinks on the upstairs terrace, the view was spectacular and the wine was terrific. Lovely spot and the service was spot on!

This was such a wonderful little retreat/intro to Portugal! I actually found this hotel through the Hopper app, and knowing little except for what the reviews said, really don't think I could have made a better choice for my first major trip post COVID-shutdowns. Memmo was welcoming and comfortable from the moment I arrived. My flight from the states got in super early, and I arrived at 8am - where I was immediately greeted by the desk staff. Although official check in wasn't until 3pm, they stored my heavy bag and allowed me to take full advantage of the breakfast - coffee, juice, charcuterie, yogurt, granola, fresh fruit, and local pastries. Breakfast can be eaten inside the cozy dining area or out on the terrace with glorious views of the Tagus river. With medium aggressive sparrows. They were actually able to have my room for me (river view, private terrace) by 11am - and as the jet lag was making itself felt, it was lovely to take a shower and a nap. Located in the Alfama district, it's an easy walk to many of the main sites, or down to the Praca de Commercial to pick up tour buses and other kinds of travel. 10 minutes walk to the Sta Apoliana train station, maybe 15 minutes cab to the airport. Live Fado performances on Tuesday nights. Solid cocktails in the evening, and reasonably priced tapas (steer clear of the shrimp, though - fishy and grainy tasting). Sometimes a cruise ship pulls in and blocks the view from the terrace, but these are very minor issues and don't even warrant removing a star. I used the laundry service and it was efficient and reasonably priced - they probably took better care of my clothing than I did. Perfectly satisfied!

Don't be fooled by the pictures online because they are lies! I just checked into a room that was suppose to have a king sized bed and it is two twins pushed together. The "terrace" is two chairs behind two other chairs in front of me. The room is right next to the bar so good luck sleeping! I asked to leave and they won't refund my money and claim there is no manager that I can talk to because they are all on vacatio

What was once the site of a prominent bakery, now exists as Memmo Alfama, a posh boutique hotel located in the Alfama neighbourhood of Lisboa. The decor is inspiring. The staff, genuine and sincere... A very helpful lot. There was no shortage of warmth and hospitality. The hotel is nestled away on a hill that cannot be seen from the main road, so you'll need to be vigilant and keep an eye out for the [very small] sign. You'll eventually make a turn onto a very beautiful alley, paved with nice little bricks that will unleash the gates of hell upon your feet. So, wear sneakers--especially if you plan on visiting Saint George Castle (Castelo de São Jorge) soon thereafter. The decor is chic. And the shower is "FREAK". (And that's all that I'm going to say about that.) Oh, and the pillows! Each bed is set with two groups of three pillows: one small, one medium, and one large. Breakfast is hearty. Fresh milk, whole fruit. Bread. Freshly cut meatlets. Cutlets. Whatever. Cereal, granola, assorted seed that runs the gamut. Pumpkin, chia, and a bunch of other sh*t I don't eat, but probably should. This all takes place in a postmodern chic dining area replete with wood flooring, pre-1960s era appliances, and a view of the port. With post card-worthy views, a location most travellers will find central, and guest rooms built for the utmost level of comfort, Memmo Alfama both met and exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed our stay here, and would not hesitate to book another stay in the future.

This is a BEAUTIFUL hotel. It was in walking distance from our Airbnb, but we all wished we had stayed here instead. To cope, we settled for drinks on the terrace at sunset. It was chilly, so they brought out plenty of blankets and turned on the heater. The view was incredible - a great way to take in the city we'd spent the day traipsing around. Definitely recommend stopping here for a glass of wine. Some of my group also went back for breakfast and said that it was a little pricey but delicious.

This four star hotel gives a ten star experience. From the moment we walked in and Mirelle showed us around, we knew we had chosen the right hotel. She stored our bags while we walked around the town, and when we returned, they were waiting for us in our room. Everyone on their staff greeted us and made us feel welcome. The rooftop deck area has the best view of Alfama. We enjoyed drinks there every night, and Ali took good care of us. Breakfast every morning included a beautiful cold buffet and hot meals you could order. David and Monica made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this hotel; we will stay here again when we return to Lisbon.

08OCT2017 Second visit. Just as enjoyable. Same rosé wine. Same excellent service. A delicious salmon burger and sweet potato chips. Huge amount a salmon flavor. Estamos feliz. 30SEP2017 The Terrace Bar has great views, tasty food and excellent service. Take the 28E and get off at the Limoeiro stop. They welcome the low lifes from the street who are not guests. A bottle of Horta Osorio Rosé for €19. A beautifully plated assortment of 3 hams and walnuts. + Super service from staff who know how to keep guests paying €200-400 per night. + Wi-Fi + Flatware, Cutipol made in Portugal + Cloth napkins €36

This is an amazing perfect place for a vacation. Would describe it as a HEAVENLY experience and so so so good. JUST BOOK IT. Perfect service and made the honeymoon exquisite. A MUST if you are in the area

The place is nice, quite, but food is bad. Price is high, quality is low, portions are very small.

Imagine you've arrived at heaven, and they pull you aside to say you have been selected to go to a "special place" in heaven. And that place is the Memmo Alfama! Indeed special in many ways of uniqueness and comfort, I felt like I've been invited by God to a setting unlike any other boutique hotel in the Alfama area of Lisboa. It's truly a place where you simply want to hang out and know that life is good! Ah, the sunbathed roof deck felt like a king's private hideaway overlooking the Alfama red rooftops and the glistening sea of the Rio Tejo. And when you're ready to retire, your room feels so comforting in its details of artfulness. I may go back to Lisboa just to be in the Memmo Alfama once again...

Stunning rooftop bar with magnificent views of the water and Alfama. Super friendly staff. Infinity pool, fireplace, plenty of seating inside and out, plus the wine was fabulous!

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It is beautifully designed - minimal with neutral colors - and has a fantastic view from the terrace. The food served at the restaurant and at breakfast was delicious. It is in a fun part of the city and close to lots of great restaurants, views, sites, and more. I found the rooms to be a little small and was ready to go after the third night and I wasn't comfortable swimming in the pool because there were usually a lot of people eating on the terrace. If you aren't staying here, definitely visit for an afternoon drink on the terrace. The staff is friendly and helped us orient to the city.

This is a fabulous hotel with a stunning restaurant set on a rooftop terrace, the only one in the neighborhood. Staff are helpful and speak English for international travelers. If you come during the day there is a healthy sunshine. If you stay at the hotel, the breakfast is grand and includes gorgeous crepes. A wonderful experience!

Great view, but were not accommodating with tables - then were out of two drinks we tried to order. Finally ordered and brought the wrong drink - and were not apologetic.

Phenomenal hotel. Staff was exceptionally warm, welcoming and accommodating. Among many other special touches, we had to leave early the following morning and they provided breakfast boxes before we left. Very clean and comfortable, delicious food, and one of the best views in all of Lisbon. I only wish we had more time here.

Absolutely love this hotel! Great staff and beautiful room. Roof top terrace with bar service. Lots of great food nearby. Free breakfast that was phenomenal! Can't say enough good things!

This hotel is a gem! From the full service breakfast included in your room to the wine terrace outside. The customer service here is first class and all staff seem to know Lisbon and the surrounding towns well. We stayed here for 3 nights and loved it. Room #33 has the best view of the river from all windows. The neighborhood is very safe to walk around at all times of the night and people are friendly. The hotel stay includes a free walking tour of the Alfama neighborhood and would highly recommend it. The hotel is about 5 minutes from the main shopping district and all public trams and trains. We will be coming back here on our next trip to Lisbon.

Rude,rude,rude. Stubborn,stubborn,stubborn, nasty, nasty,nasty. Nice views but not worth dealing with staff and all their ridiculous, restrictive,unnecessary rules

My wife and I stayed in #42 January14 - 21, and had terrific experience. The staff was knowledgable, courteous, and attentive. The room was immaculate, tasteful and comfortable. The breakfast was fresh and delicious, from the custom crepes to omelets and many fruits. The hotel is located within walking distance to many of the historic attractions in the old city. We will be back.

we had a great time at this hotel. they offered a free walking tour of the area which was fantastic. the breakfast was great and they made your meal fresh! The pool was too cold in January but i bet it is incredible in the summer, as is the roof top bar that is on ever list of bars to visit in the city! i even wrote about it on my travel blog (completely unsponsored) http://lovelaughexplore.com/memmo-alfama-lisbon/
