Solar Do Castelo Hotel in Lissabon

This serene hotel is adjacent to the St. Jorge Castle high atop Lisbon and is very unique and makes you feel like you are staying in a room at the castle, rather than a typical hotel. My room had three windows looking out on a lovely courtyard with peacocks. The desk staff was always helpful with reservations and other requests. It takes some patience […] getting to town from the hotel because the charming narrow streets weren't designed with cars in mind. The bedroom could use some additional lighting. Overall, I wish I could have stayed longer than two days in this lovely setting and would definitely stay there (or one of their other 4 historical properties) when visiting Lisbon again. Lees meer

The hotel is inside the castle. It is wonderful and romantic. The staff were very friendly day and night. Only downside is the room was a little dusty but when we told the hotel they mopped for us. Overall, this hotel is brilliant.

Pros: The staff is excellent. The patio is bucolic and so beautifully quiet in the evening. The design is very good, and the hotel is quite clean. The peacocks on the patio can either be viewed as a pro (very cute) or a con (they tend to make a lot of noise at sunrise). So-sos: The hotel did not permit us to check in even a few minutes early, even […] with several hours to prepare for us. There were sugar ants in the room, which seemed strange since there was no food or other attractions for them. Cons: The location of the hotel is both a plus and a minus. Cabs will rarely take you directly to the hotel (and few no where it is). Getting to it requires penetrating very large crowds coming and going from the Castelo Sao Jorge. Once you do so, however, the neighborhood is fanciful and quiet. The hotel has no restaurant, and almost all the nearby restaurants are tourist traps (bad quality and high prices). You will have to travel for dinner. Lees meer

We chose this property based on the location at the castle and from reviews on this sight. Both were spot on. Hotel is located immediately next to Castle St George, and I mean next to it. My balcony overlooked the castle grounds.(when I could see past the beautiful peacock that like to sit on our balcony each day) Rooms are beautiful and our balcony […] overlooked the courtyard and castle grounds. There was a welcome carafe of Port in our room, which was a very nice suprise. The courtyard has nice seating and makes a great place to unwind after a day of touring, with a glass of wine or port from the lobby honor bar. (very nice selection of everything--and quite reasonable) There are several restaruants and shops in the immediate area. Two absolute gems that standout are: Wine Bar do Castelo. Killer little wine bar just outside the arch run by Nuno. He has an amazing knowledge of Portugese wines and will walk you through all the regions. Great appetizers to go with them. Resto do Chapito may be the best place for dinner in the area. Hard to find, but just a 5 minute walk from the hotel. Converted womens prison perched on the cliff with view that are mind blowing, overlooking the city and river. You can thank me later. Service at the hotel is beyond top notch. They worked hard to help us with tours and places to eat. I cannot thank them enough. This is a great place!! (one note, as others have said, be prepared to walk up the hill!) Lees meer

Very nice staff, very calm and nice atmosphere, excellent location, exciting wildlife (peacocks on the terrace) where you can eat a good breakfast. Pack some good shoes, cause Lisbon is hilly and this hotel is on the top of it all.

Charming, quiet, wonderful location in the old town by the castle, but a trek to most other places. Felt that for the price the hotel could have been more focused and furniture, etc.

The hotel is situated within castle walls, and exhibits wonderful old word charm. Often peacocks that resided around the castle visit the courtyard to sun bathe. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff was excellent. You´ll need to take a taxi to reach the hotel with luggage. If the cabbie doesn´t know the hotel, tell them to drop you off at […] the castle gate. The hotel is a short walk from there by taking the first left via a narrow alley. Breakfast is not included.

Kort vei til sentrum, men likevel så fredelig og rolig. Personalet er veldig vennlige og hjelpsomme. Dette er et hotell med varme og sjel. Vi har bodd her to ganger og kommer gjerne igjen.

todella viihtyisä hotelli, luottavainen ja ystävällinen palvelu, jota ei liiaksi kuitenkaan tyrkytetty. Historian havinaa ja nykyaikaa yhdistetty onnistuneesti. Hiljainen! Suosittelen lämpimästi!

Supert boutique hotell med fantastisk beliggenhet i en stille blindvei i den gamle delen av byen. Ti minutter å gå ned til det travle sentrum, men her er du borte fra alt. Rommene er fine, nummer 8 var stort og luftig.

Ett otroligt fint hotell, med förstklassig service. Inget var omöjligt för personalen. Enda nackdelen var att rummet var väldigt litet och att det var dyrt att köpa till frukost. Dessutom var området väldigt kuperat, men det gick små bussar från området väldigt ofta.

Flott beliggende hotell i rolig strøk vis a vis Castello San Jorge. Upåklagelig service fra profesjonelt og hyggelig personell.

Nice hotel, well located in the heart of Castello Sao George, close to most historical places in Lisbon. A couple of minutes from the heart of Alfama, easy transportations with the historical tram. Very quiet, which is not necessarely easy obvious in Lisbon... "Normal" prices may be a little bit overrated, but look at good offers and you may get good […] price to value relationship Lees meer

当初Solar do Casteloを予約していたのですが、ホテルに到着したところ、工事中か何かの理由で、同系列のPensão de Janelas Verdesに行って欲しい、そこでアップグレードした部屋を用意していると言われました。成田発リスボン着の飛行機が22時半頃に到着、そのためホテルに着いたときには既に23時を過ぎており、係の方の話し方が不親切だったわけではないものの、その時間に改めて移動しなければいけないことに驚かされました。到着予定は既に伝えてあったわけですし、事前にメール等でその旨を知らせてもらえれば、無駄な時間を過ごさずに済み、必要な交渉もできたと思います。 Pensão de Janelas Verdesでは、正直特にこれと言って良い部屋だったわけでもなく、朝食も美味しいとは言えず、支払った値段に見合ったサービスの提供を受けたとは言えなかったのが残念でした。立地も、Solar […] do CasteloはCastelo de São Jorgeに隣接したアルファマ地区にあり散歩にも面白い場所だったので、本当に残念でした。 Lees meer

Centralt placeret hotel lige op ad borgen Castello Jorge. Faktisk inde på borgområdet. Kort afstand til transport og lækre cafeer/barer. Hvilket der ikke mangler i Lissabon. Dejlig have og lounge. Afslappet atmosfære. Vi fik efter noget besvær med en vagt en p-plads på borggrunden. Efter venlig hjælp fra hotellet.

Vil du ha det rolig ved frokost, kvelden og om natten, er dette hotellet for deg. Du kan bli vekket av kurrende duer ved 6-7 tiden om morgenen. Hotellet ligger ved / i borgen i den gamle bydelen. Det ligger litt i høyden, så taxi, eller trikk nr. 28 er å anbefale til og fra sentrum. Taxi er nesten gratis.

Vi bodde på dette hotellet på deler av vår bryllupsreise i mai. Hotellet ligger vegg-i-vegg med den kjente borgen oppå en høyde i Lisboa. Kjempehyggelig bakgård/hage der man spiser frokost osv. Taxisjåføren hadde problemer med å finne frem, så et godt tips er å be dem kjøre til inngangen/billettkjøp av borgen og så gå derfra (ca 100 meter). Litt stille/stengt […] rundt hotellet på kvelden, men 150 meter nedi veien ligger en kjempekoselig restaurant/teater "Chapito" der man kan enten spise i bakhagen eller oppe i 2.etasje med utsikt over hele Lisboa. Frokostbuffet som var meget bra! Hyggelig "stue" i resepsjonsområdet der man kan forsyne seg i deres honesty-bar og spille div spill/lkort eller slappe av i hagen med masse tente stearinlys og lykter. Påfuglene som tasset rundt på området var ekstra eksotisk :-) Lees meer

Solar do Castelo ligger i en av Lisboas hot-spots, helt øverst i Alfama-området, vegg-i-vegg med den imponerende St. Jorge festningen. Selv om området myldrer av turister er hotellet en rolig oase, der man virkelig kan slappe av. Hotellet er elegant innredet og gir et luksuriøst inntrykk, men er samtidig lite og koselig.

Hotellet er både professionelt drevet og samtidigt meget charmerende. Det er meget smukt indrettet og personalet er meget venlige og imødekommende. Morgenbuffeten god med frisk frugt og dejligt at spise den i haven. Vi kommer helt sikkert gerne igen.
