Precioso alojamiento
Pros:

Hotel muy bonito, tranquilo y romántico. Rico desayuno. Personal muy atento y servicial, encantadores. Habitaciones muy cómodas. El patio del hotel es muy agradable para tomar alguna de las "amenities" que ofrece el hotel fuera del horario del desayuno

Cons:

Hubiera estado bien que tuviera servicio de restauración, pero no es imprescindible. Por la zona hay muchos sitios para comer, además el hotel te puede recomendar sitios.

Bel emplacement
Pros:

L emplacement est exceptionnel, derrière le château de San Jorge à proximité des commerces et restaurants
Le salon est tres agréable. Pas de bar mais il est possible de se servir un verre et de le régler le lendemain, du vin pétillantet du porto sont laisséàdispositiongratuitementdès18h. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et varié
La petite bouteille de Porto à disposition dans la chambre était vraiment la petite touche en plus

Cons:

Le tarif est un peu élevé
La chambre a vue sur un mur et n est pas très grande mais reste confortable

Excellent
Pros:

Location, in historic area very close to castle.
Transport links into town e.g. tram/bus good, required just a short walk.
Room, although facing onto street, was very quiet.
Room facilities and quality excellent. Helpful staff.
Peacocks were great, did not disturb me in the room.

Cons:

Complimentary coffee available in lounge, but freshly brewed would have been better e.g. bean to cup machine.
But just a minor issue.
