The 10 Best Hotels in Lisbon, Portugal to Book Right Now - AFAR

"Opened in 2015, Santiago de Alfama is a draw in its own right. The former 15th-century palace is just below São Jorge Castle. Its 19 guest rooms offer views of the River Tagus or courtyard garden, as well as unique configurations, including interconnecting bedrooms that would be ideal for families. Most accommodations combine traditional features such as wood-paneled ceilings and intricate cornices with modern comforts like rain showers and bespoke linens. Be sure to dine in the café/bistro Audrey’s, named after the owners’ daughter and serving seasonal dishes using fresh produce from the kitchen garden." - Laura Dannen Redman

"For all Santiago de Alfama’s grandeur, it spans just 19 rooms, which means even the most (relatively) humble room offers ample space to spread out. They’re all different, but they’re all attractive, spanning centuries of design history, from restored period architectural details to modern artworks and contemporary furniture. And the views, thanks to Lisbon’s hilly topography, are impressive, encompassing varying vistas of city rooftops and the river." - MICHELIN Guide

"Santiago de Alfama Lisbon’s oldest district is known for its labyrinth of narrow streets, abundant Fado bars, and numerous historical attractions. Opened in 2015, the Santiago de Alfama is a draw in its own right: It occupies a former 15th-century palace just below São Jorge Castle and offers 19 accommodations withviews of the River Tagus or courtyard garden, as well as unique configurations, including interconnecting bedrooms that would be ideal for families. Most combine traditional features such as wood-paneled ceilings and intricate cornices with modern comforts like rainshowers and bespoke linens. The property also has the amenities of a larger hotel, from a spa and meeting space to two restaurants (be sure to linger over petiscos and Portuguese specialties like oven-roasted cabrito at Manny’s Bar),yet with so few guests rooms, the staff will always know your name."

I am a lifelong Marriott person and decided to take a chance on this hotel. My daughter told me not to worry because it had good TikTok reviews. All I can say is, Wow! Martin and the concierge staff spent a lot of time helping me get oriented before my exploring adventures, arranging amazing dinner plans, a private car tontheairport and more. That was the best part. The room was amazing. Location is perfect. They have a great restaurant so get the breakfast option.

Santiago de Alfama is a gem in Lisbon! The location is great, and our stay was made truly special by the incredible staff and amenities. Rita, the concierge, deserves a shout-out. She was incredibly helpful, taking the time to explain the area and offering fantastic tips that enhanced our exploration of the city. She also helped us book a few day trips, and transfer to our next hotel. The breakfasts at the hotel's restaurant were superb, offering a delicious start to our day. We also thoroughly enjoyed the expertly made drinks in the evenings. Thank you Santiago de Alfama team for a truly memorable visit to Lisbon!

Our family of five (3 adult children) LOVED this boutique hotel. Enjoyed being in the old part of the city on a quiet street in a busy section. The staff was friendly and helpful but Bruno, the bartender at the on-site bar, was AWESOME! We love craft cocktails and frequent cocktail bars everywhere we go, in the U.S. and beyond, and Bruno’s creativity, knowledge, attention to detail and passion for his craft was second to none. He is an absolute pro and was happy to talk to us about his ingredients, approach and techniques. Enjoying his cocktails was one of the most memorable parts of our stay at this lovely hotel.

Spent four nights in a junior suite with my wife. Reception was very attentive and pleasant. The concierge service at the reception took good care of us during our stay, provided valuable advice on trips and was very attentive to our needs while totally respecting our privacy. The room was spatious and very comfortable with a lovely view of rooftops and the ”sea of straws”! With temperatures outside pushing 40 degrees we were grateful for the effective AC. Service in restaurant during breakfast and dinner was excellent and the food was great. We will definitely return!

Situated in the lovely Alfama district, with lovely views over the river and various historic sites and less than 5 minutes’ walk from the Castle Sao Jorge.|Friendly and helpful contact via email before we arrived continued with a nice welcome at check-in (Rita is superb).|Our room was large and spacious on the 3rd floor. Quiet, large comfy bed, great a/c, super clean. It had a coffee m/c, kettle and small fridge.|Although we missed having our own balcony, we had access to a lovely terrace with views over the river.|Breakfast was simply wonderful each day, sitting outside on the lovely terrace. Food was delicious and very fresh, and the service was exemplary and very friendly (Dylan is incredible).|Dinner seated inside at Audreys Bistro was excellent and with a slightly more formal yet buzzy feel and a different menu. The bar area is very nice too for a pre/post dinner drink.|I feel like the hotel could be more environmentally aware – changing towels every day, leaving lights on in the daytime and turning all a/c on, even if it was left off.|Overall, an excellent hotel choice in Lisbon.

Amazing service. The concierge went over a map of Lisbon and suggestions when we got there and our room was ready very early for us. It’s so nice having the beautiful bar and cafe on the first floor of the hotel. Delicious breakfast is included. Room was spacious and nice and housekeeping was great. Nice shower. Good location!

I travel quite a bit. This was one of the best stays anywhere in the world. The property is quite nice, as is the restaurant/bar, but the service was where they really stood out. I can not say enough about the level of service, and their genuine interest in our well being. Thanks again Martin!

We stayed at Santiago De Alfama for 5 nights. The hotel is so special and so is the staff. The atmosphere of the hotel lends itself to calm and peace. We loved sitting ou for breakfast everyday and the servers knew exactly what we liked. We highly recommend Santiago De Alfama. ||

A Slice Of Heaven..... The hotel is the Alfama district on a side of the tallest hill in Lisbon. It's been open for 11 years after 12 years of renovations on a 15th century mansion. Pros: - From your first step into the lobby, you'll notice top-of-the line finishes yet feel a casual elegance. - Service from people at the front desk reflects those same qualities. Everyone and everything is at your beck and call. Our room rate included breakfast, but since we had to leave early for the airport, they volunteered to pack it in a box for us. - For our 3 night stay after a cruise, we booked the Santiago Suite on the highest (4th) floor. Light filled the main room through floor to ceiling windows with a 270 degree view of the harbor. Reserve it if you can. - Furnishings in our room were top of the line. The bed was made for sleeping. Towels were super soft and absorbent. Even the toilet paper seemed to be 3 ply. - Location is excellent. Just 5 blocks uphill from downtown and 5 blocks downhill from a park overlooking the city. - Their restaurant, Audrey's: - Breakfast: The a la carte menu offered some of the best breakfast foods we've ever had. Examples: Fresh granola and berries with Greek yogurt. THE BEST EVER! Home baked breads and pastries. Orange juice that's pure and not too sweet. Bagel and lox to please the purists. Service was provided by a trio of very friendly, attentive and helpful young women. - Lunch: We ate on the patio in front of the hotel. I had a super tasty vegetarian Thai dish while my wife had a big salad. They were accompanied by the best Sangria in ages. Sweet, but not too much. - Dinner: The dining room is very attractive yet understated like the hotel. Food was impeccable. Tomato salad was large and amazing. My wife had a dish centered around baked cod which was large and filling. My polenta with mushroom ragu was immense and full of flavor. Breads are baked daily and almost as good as dessert. Speaking of dessert, mine was a fantastic chocolate mousse while my wife had fresh berries with a massive amount of the best tasting homemade whipped cream. Cons: - Santiago de Alfama is 1/2 block from a busy street with lots of revelers so noise can creep up the hill. - While the food at dinner was fantastic, service was perfunctory. Our server, a pleasant young woman, covered the basics...but nothing more. During our 90 minute meal, she NEVER asked "how are you doing?" Can I get you anything?" We ordered a bottle of wine, but NOT ONCE did she offer to refill our glasses. She didn't speak an unrequired word. The man seemingly managing the room barely acknowledged us. The guy clearing dishes was the ONLY ONE to ask if we wanted coffee or tea. The restaurant was nearly empty. Did we not spend enough? Did we do something wrong? What a way to put a damper on a glorious meal. However, as well-behaved Americans, we left a 15% tip. The next day, we spoke with Martim Neves Carneiro from Guest Relations who was very receptive to our information. He said "they are part of a new nighttime crew and will need remedial help". How very true. Despite those wrinkles, Santiago de Alfama is certainly a 5 star experience.

If I could give this hotel 10 stars I would. Last hotel of our trip and had we known about how amazing it would be we would have extended our stay in the area. Location 10/10, Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Spa 10/10. The concierge was beyond helpful, he made our reservation for our Fado dinner and it was the absolute highlight of the entire trip. The location was perfection. The restaurant at the hotel is Audrey's and was spectacular in every way. So much flavor. We had breakfast there as well and it was delicious. I will dream of the chocolate croissants, delicious coffee and the refreshing cucumber melon juice. I have to say whatever they use to wash the linens and towels smells like actual heaven. Bravo! Well done all.
