Beautiful room, gracious staff and excellent location. We would definitely stay here again. The location was excellent, close to the tram, Rossini station and the river. The square was lively and a great place to get a latte. The roof top bar had great views.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bairro Alto Hotel. Our spacious room had all the amenities one would expect in a high-end hotel. The location is excellent. It was a short walk to a wide variety of shopping and restaurants, and less than 15 minutes to the Rossio train station. The staff was friendly and helpful. Late afternoon drinks on the terrace was a pleasant way to relax after a busy day exploring the city. The hotel served the best breakfast we had on our three week trip. Instead of a buffet, guests order from a menu with ample options. I highly recommend the buckwheat pancakes. Another guest raved about the hotel restaurant for dinner but we were, unfortunately, unable to get a reservation. We opted instead for a lighter meal on the terrace and were delighted with the meal.…

Our experience at this hotel was excellent. The rooms are not large, but are well-appointed and immaculate. The highlight of the experience, for us, was enjoying the breakfast on the terrace overlooking Lisbon. The evening views from the rooftop bar were also stunning. The staff was welcoming, helpful, and friendly.

Bairro Alto was by far one of my most favorite hotels. Love the hotel. Room was lovely. Bed was so comfortable. Great pillows. Turn down service was always such a nice surprise of what treat will we get. Breakfast was fantastic. Such a nice way to start the day. End of day before dinner we always went upstairs to the rooftop to have a couple of cocktails. It was so relaxing.

We were super excited to be in Lisbon, and our hotel driver met us with a big smile and drove us to the hotel whilst filling us in on where to eat once in town...his recommendations were 10 out of 10! The hotel check-in was efficient, warm and friendly. The hotel is an elegant assemblage of antique and contemporary furniture - all thoughtfully curated. We loved the Portuguese glazed tiles, rattan, and ceramics throughout the hotel. Our room was the perfect size for a city getaway and surprisingly soundproof, considering the city trams that scoot right past the hotel. We went straight to the bar before heading out to dinner. A gorgeous setting overlooking the rooftops. Fantastic martinis and distinctive and exciting snacks - service was excellent. Breakfast was a highlight each morning for us. The restaurant was stunning, and the staff were out of this world. Young, professional and highly engaging. They remembered your name and what you had eaten the day before, along with making discreet conversation. The food was consistently fantastic, and the pastéis de nata to die for. The Concierge Team were brilliant, welcoming and genuinely helpful. They laid out excellent suggestions for us over the three days we stayed.

We spent months researching our trip to Portugal and Lisbon offered a number of great hotels, so it what difficult to choose! In the end, we selected the Bairro Alto Hotel and were so glad we did. The hotel is in a very central location with easy access to tours, great restaurants and places of interest. Our arrival was delayed for 10+ hours due to flight re-routes and we had not slept in nearly 36 hours by the time we got the hotel. Adding frustration was delayed luggage. Needless to say, we were tired and grumpy upon arrival, but the delightful front desk staff welcomed us with warm smiles and one member of the team even waited outside to help us locate the hotel arrival area since we were driving and having trouble figuring it out. We were treated to a sample of Ginja upon checkin (perhaps they could tell we needed a drink?!) and promptly shown to our room. We requested a corner room at the time of reservation and found our room overlooking the Camões Square to be perfectly charming and cozy. The high ceilings allowed the high windows to fill the space with great light and we enjoyed the fresh air. Fresh baked treats awaited and the room had all the amenities we could ask for. During our 5-night stay we enjoyed amazing views from the rooftop bar, dined at the restaurant (BAHR) for dinner and the outdoor space for breakfast multiple times - all of these spots offer incredible views of the Tagus River. We even enjoyed the coffee bar off the lobby. Requests for extra pillows and iron/ironing board were promptly honored, valet service was prompt, and the front desk even helped us get a reservation at a restaurant out of town. Attention to detail and desire to make sure guests are happy and comfortable were notable… never have I stayed in a hotel that actually has a pillow guide card from which you can order a variety of pillows! Despite its location in the busy Bairro Alto area, the rooms are quiet… even our 2nd floor room with 2 windows was quiet when the windows were closed… which was a good thing as people make use of the square until early morning hours. We would love to have had a higher room in the same spot to minimize the noise from the square when the windows were open. We found the hotel to be modern, clean, centrally located and “boutique” in vibe with highly personalized and obsessively friendly service. HIGHLY recommend!…

Ideally situated to explore Lisbon. Rooms are clean and beds super comfortable. Breakfast, served on the roof terrance, was exceptional and staff very friendly. We loved the roof top bar but slightly disappointed it didn't open until 4pm. It would have been lovely to sit there early afternoon for tea and cake. The door staff were great and very helpful.

Location is fabulous, beds very comfortable, bar and restaurant views amazing! The staff were helpful and spoke excellent English. The restaurant coped with allergies well, with the exception of dinner where the menu had items marked as gluten free that the waiter then told us were actually not gluten free. The only downside was that with the twin room, where I stayed with a friend, the bathroom was a little small for two ladies’ worth of makeup and detritus!

We stayed at the Bairro Alto hotel as it was recommended by our travel agent, a Virtuoso one after a Miami to Lisbon cruise. Staff are exceptionally friendly, professional and courteous. We had as Jr. Suite and it was terrific…….very clean, airy and comfortable. The Hotel’s location is terrific for walking around and sight seeing.
