Unbeatable location and very helpful staff at the front desk. They were very accommodating when we wanted to change rooms. My only issue with this hotel is the carpet- it’s like a plastic indoor/outdoor carpet that is dark and pretty gross. I don’t know how they clean it. But it’s still a great hotel.

The location is very central, across from the Cathedral, but even on the second floor noise was not a problem. The room faces west and sunsets over the city were beautiful from our windows.

This is located in what I would call the best part of the historic city. Easy to get anywhere from here. Diana at the front desk is amazing and very friendly. We got checked in early. Received a nice selection of treats everyday. Always treated with a smile and hello. At the end of a long day, the bar had a terrific young guy DJing and a selection of videos from old movies to match the music. We've been traveling 15 days of 30 day tour and this hotel knocked it out of the park. I would recommend this place to anyone.

We had to change our trip due to major weather issues and flooding throughout the country at the time of our arrival. While we booked a non refundable room weeks before our planned arrival it was not at a discount to the Hilton website and we didn’t realize the situation until it would have been too late to cancel (refundable or not). We like to keep our hotels in one place and booked with Expedia. We requested moving our reservation due to the weather, the hotel took days to respond and basically said they were open and would not honor our request to do anything at all. I get that’s on us but a little disappointed given the contrary was in an announced state of emergency where having tourists would not be ideal. Anyway the hotel won our money but not our business. I can’t say that I feel valued as a Hilton honors member or a user of Expedia.

My wife and I just recently stayed there while touring around Portugal for two weeks. We spent two nights at this hotel. Our reservation was for a Room with a Queen bed. The room was clean and modern but was on the small side. It was difficult to open the two suitcases and have room to move around. Not a big deal for us as we were out the majority of the time.

The lobby was beautiful and the staff helpful.

Parking: For those driving, they do have parking available at an underground lot nearby, about a 7 minute walk away. The vehicle was safe and they provide a discount to those staying. Be sure to drop your bags off to check in before parking as the lot is downhill and you do not want to push the bags uphill.

Prior to arriving I emailed the hotel for recommendations and they were very helpful. Both restaurants they recommended were fantastic!

Location you are 10-15 minutes from everything by foot. The walk to the train station is 3-4 minutes. It's about 10 minutes down to the water and only 3-4 minutes to the bridge with a spectacular view of the waterfront below. Overall we had a great stay here.

Pros:
- The staff are exceedingly kind and helpful!
- Location! Location! Location! Central to everything!!
- Newly renovated, very clean & well maintained.

Cons:
- Bath situation (can't even call it a room) is bizarre!!! The shower room is a 2.5ft x 4ft stall on one side of the entryway. If you are a large/broad person, this will be a tight fit. Toilet room is the same size on the other side of the hallway and is carpeted. The toilet room has a barn-door style, and doesn't meet the wall, so someone in the room can watch you on the toilet. And then the sink is in the sleeping area.
- The room is dark, the shower & toilet room is dark. There's pin lights everywhere but it's more of an ambient light than what's needed in certain areas.
- Mirrors are on the toilet door, and on the side of the sink. Combined w the poor lighting, it's incredibly hard to shave or apply makeup.
- We had to catch a tour by 7:30. No shops were open that early, so we had the hotel's breakfast buffet which opens at 7. They opened the doors at 7:05. By 7:25 half the buffet still wasn't setup, and we had to leave. So we paid 20 euros (buffet price) for...some bread. I'm not sure if the timing/setup problems was a one-off or standard.

Overall it's a clean, safe, well maintained, well run hotel in a fantastic location. The staff does an incredible job making you feel welcome.
