Close to the castle and in the older historic area. Great views from the windows since it is up on the hill. Ask the front desk for the location of hillside outdoor elevators to make it easier to get down the hill for more shopping in the main part of town.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Firstly, we were charged 50% more by Hotels.com than what was on the website, via Trivago in AUD. Terrible start. The breakfast is ok, but not great. Access to the hotel is not easy via Uber. They have one iron for the complete hotel, so in 3 days my wife could only use an iron once. When we organised for the hotel to provide direct transport to the airport, they only accept cash, which was a major inconvenience (as we'd used all our cash). When the time came to be picked up, the transport didnt turn up, we were late to the airport and had to use a taxi. Significant hassle to get the cash for the hotel, but they still couodnt organise it. All when Hotels.com charged us 50% more than agreed.

Beware - get access vode for Uber and Taxi
Beware-get an "access code" from the hotel prior to arrival due to the hotel being in restricted area, or have Uber ot Taxi call hotel for access code and don't let them drop you off 300 feet from the hotel especially at 12:30 am with child and 3 heavy suitcases even if you ordered most expensive Uber Black service from the airport unless you want to have to spend $400-$500 replacing your suitcases since the wheels on them will be damaged after dragging them on stone lined streets of Lisbon. I had multiple email exchanges with hotel about upgrade charges prior to my arrival and yet zero communication about "access code" or the fact that doors get locked and curtains are shut and you have to find the bell to ring when arriving late. Other than that, the hotel is nice, in the quiet area, beautiful view (2nd and 3rd floors patios shared privacy), pay attention to hotel room square footage in room description and don't get anything under 250 sq.Ft as that includes bathroom In Europe). Breakfast is better than in US but worse than Northern Europe, but seemed typical for Portugal as the same breakfast was served at the lounge in Lisbon airport, no variety. Staff was very polite and courteous but did not respond to my suggestion of notifying/sharing "access code" with future guests to avoid my experience. Walls are paper thin, I had to ask guests nextdoor to stop fighting as it was scaring my daughter. You can hear every vacuum move from cleaning ladies starting 8 am.

Don't believe the parking!
The listing says parking is available. This is theoretical at best, and certainly misleading. Even a staff member told us he didn't know why this was included in the listing. There are (we were told) about three on-site parking spots for the whole hotel. Anyone else needs to park in a garage about a 10 minute walk away, which includes steep hills on twisty cobblestone roads. This ruined my arrival experience at the hotel. It was stressful and unpleasant, because the drive to the parking is so difficult. People with mobility challenges would absolutely be unable to walk back from the off-site parking garage. Other than that: The room was gorgeous and the view was stunning. And the staff doesn't much like to smile.
