We stayed for 6 nights in a city view superior room, and loved every part of it! Principe Real was the perfect place to spend our week; it felt like a great central location to all of the neighborhoods we wanted to spend time in. Lots of bars and nightlife in the immediate area, but the hotel is tucked away off the main street, so noise was never an issue. Close to LGBT nightlife as well, which was another plus for us!
You're steps away from Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara, which has gorgeous panoramic views of the city, as well as a market and music a few days a week. Important to note though that the views from the hotel are nearly identical and more private, which was great for lounging late at night.
The room was spacious and exceeded expectations. We received multiple complimentary drinks on arrival, and we had a small balcony with a gorgeous view of the city.
What really made this stay so special was the staff. The front desk was friendly and made check in seamless. Each night we returned to a clean room with fresh sheets and towels, and even got nightly weather reports for the following day, as well as suggestions for activities. We especially loved João, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome during our stay. When we told him we were headed to Cascais for the remainder of our trip, he contacted a colleague working at the hotel we were staying at to see if any perks were available, and made sure to write down some food recommendations for the area.
Truly not a single complaint! We will definitely be staying here again the next time we're in Lisbon.
