Fabulous hotel in the heart of the old town - next to the castle walls. Pick up from the airport was seamless and very quick to the hotel up some very narrow streets (if you are taking a cab make sure they can get inside the city walls) We arrived before check in and were offered breakfast at no extra charge and left our bags with reception. We we told we could check in at 1.00pm and so returned to get in straight away with bags in the room already. We had a complementary bottle of local sparkling wine in an ice bucket which was delicious.
The room was spacious (no3 - Alfama room) with views to the side and back courtyard. The room was comfortable with all the amenities you would expect.
Good plentiful breakfast with lots of options to choose from. An honesty bar for a late drink in the lounge / terrace which was very welcome.
A brilliant hotel in the heart of the old town with great service and some lovely extra touches which made for a memorable stay.
Highly recommended.
The property itself is very nice. Just know that it’s located and the residential section which is the oldest part of the city so cobblestone streets, which can be confusing at night if you’re trying to get back to the hotel.
The staff provided 5 star treatment each day. The breakfast always had many options and the coffee was great!

Disappointed- the room is dated and drab. Dark and small. Mould round shower. Not Luxury as sold on Expedia! Staff seem miserable. Breakfast not bad but same. Overall I would rate this a 3* and not value for what you pay.

Beautiful property; enjoyable snacks available in the main area; friendly and helpful staff.
The property is beautiful, and the staff is wonderful and gracious. Our room was clean and comfortable, but a bit small (we had nowhere to comfortably put our full size luggage) - just a note if you are a heavy packer like us, you may need to upgrade to a larger room! We loved the peacocks and the courtyard! We had some issues with taxis not being willing to go all the way to the hotel, so they would drop us off at the bottom of the hills and we would need to walk the rest of the way. This was NOT a hotel issue, but if you are unable to walk up the steep hills it may be a problem.
I don't typically leave reviews but we really had an outstanding experience at this hotel so I felt compelled to share! To start, you should know that the "free airport transportation" is for the journey TO the hotel only (which is not made clear in the Expedia listing). We originally wanted transportation to the airport after our stay, but there is very good reason to accept their transportation TO the hotel. It is within the castle walls where vehicles (except residents and taxis) are not allowed. The streets are VERY narrow and it's at the top of the hill, so you don't want to have to walk! Our taxi driver was very reluctant to take us there, so their shuttle service would have been helpful. I would definitely recommend accepting their transportation to the hotel. Aside from that, the area is VERY busy with tourists and crowds, however the minute you step through the hotel doors you will find instant calm and quiet! It is a really tranquil spot in the middle of a really busy area! If you want to be close to all of the major sights, but not feel like you're staying in a tourist trap, this is the place to be! The staff was incredible. We asked them for a dinner recommendation and they not only gave us a great suggestion but they made a reservation for us. The Fado restaurant they suggested ended up being the highlight of our two week travels and by far the best meal we had! I can't recommend Solar Do Castelo highly enough!
Folks were wonderful. Breakfast was great. Our ride from the cruise port to the hotel and then to the airport were great and the driver was very courteous (and nice!)
We will be back.
I loved this hotel! Central in the Alfama, walking distance to everything, beautiful patio with the odd peacock strolling around to enjoy the beautiful breakfast or a glass of wine in the evening. Comfy beds and well appointed rooms. An oasis in the castle. Loved every moment of my stay. I hope I have an opportunity to return again! The only thing I would say is you have mobility issues getting to the hotel might be an issue.
We only stayed one night in this lovely hotel after returning to Lisbon from Porto. Our flight home was the next morning. If I had known how lovely it was I would have returned a day earlier so we could spend another night in this wonderful hotel. It was tucked away on a small street in the Alfama neighborhood. The inside of the property was amazing! There was a center courtyard with tables and chairs for seating and peacocks wandering around! It was so peaceful! The hotel is right next to the Castelo de Sao Jorge. If you enjoy small boutique hotels, I highly recommend this one!
