Situated in the historical centre of Lisbon, 3.4 km from the dotted garden "Calouste Gulbenkian Museum", the smoke-free Pousada Alfama Lisbon hotel includes 21 rooms and offers access to the Lisboa Story Centre, which is just 9 minutes' walk away. Located in the vicinity of the moorish Castle of Sao Jorge, this 4-star hotel overlooks the river and invites guests to have a drink at a lounge bar.

Location

The hotel has a prominent setting a mere 1.1 km from the Carmo Archaeological Museum, while natural sights like Miradouro do Torel Park are a mere 1.8 km away. The Pousada Alfama is approximately a 5-minute walk from the Roman Lisbon Catholic Cathedral and in close proximity to Terreiro do Paço underground station.

Standing 800 metres away, the 17th-century baroque church "National Pantheon" is a hard-to-miss divine tourist destination.

This accommodation is nearly a 5-minute ride from Miradouro de Santa Luzia bus stop and within 15 minutes' walk of Rossio train station in Lisbon.

Rooms

The air-conditioned rooms of Pousada Alfama hotel have air conditioning along with a mini-fridge-bar.

Eat & Drink

Guests may find the restaurant Tiagu's in the immediate vicinity of this Lisbon hotel.

“Pousada Alfama's location within Lisbon's oldest quarter puts guests steps away from key sites like St. George's Castle. I especially note the artistic decor, including pieces by urban artist Bordallo II, plus thoughtful touches such as welcome gifts of ginja and pasteis de nata. For travelers seeking an authentic Lisbon experience with character, this hotel distinguishes itself.”

The staff was super helpful. I needed help with directions, and they were ready with suggestions and clear instructions. The breakfast buffet had a wonderful selection. I especially loved the fresh pastries!!!
The room was really small, and there wasn't much space to move around. I also noticed some noise from the street outside. It was a little distracting at times. The lighting in the bathroom could have been better.

delicious breakfastsuper clean roomsmall roomcheap rail
the breakfast offered plenty of choice. the room was super clean. the location was ideal for walking to the main vista points in the area. the staff was friendly.
the room felt quite small. there was no wardrobe or drawers to store clothing. instead, there was a cheap clothes hanging rail with shelves. this took up even more space in the already small room.
