The comfortable hotel has views of the river and features Wi-Fi in public areas.

Location

The hotel has a prominent location in the Se district of Lisbon, in the vicinity of the historic Castle of Sao Jorge. The Pousada Alfama is approximately a 5-minute walk from the fortress-like Lisbon Cathedral and a mere 650 metres from Terreiro do Paço underground station.

Carmo Archaeological Museum is in proximity to this accommodation.

The hotel is located merely 1.1 km from Rossio train station, while Miradouro de Santa Luzia bus stop is just 150 metres away.

Rooms

Air conditioning, along with a mini-bar, provide in-room convenience at the Pousada Alfama Lisbon. The rooms include a private bathroom.

Eat & Drink

The lounge bar will set you up nicely for enjoying your stay. It also features a lounge for guests' comfort. Right around the corner from the property, Tiagu's serves Portuguese dishes.

“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.”

helpful staff great selection fresh pastries small room street noise poor bathroom lighting

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 breakfast super clean room small room cheap 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.
