Hotel Convento do Salvador

Nice place in a cool part of Lisbon

This is an old convent turned into a hotel. It’s lovely, the staff is kind and and good amenities. We only had an issue with the trolley goes through the road behind the property so if your window is open you hear it and it would be hard to sleep

We were looking for four nights' accommodation in Lisbon and we chose this hotel based on its good reviews, impressive sustainability practices and the location (given that many travel sites recommmended Alfama as the place to be for tourists). Its historic roots as a convent were also appealing to us. We caught a taxi from the airport and were astonished that it made it right to the door of the hotel along a narrow cobbled street! We arrived early in the afternoon but there was no issue with accessing our room and check-in was friendly, performed at an informal desk in reception. Our Duplex Junior Suite overlooked the large courtyard and was lovely, with a sitting area (with fridge) and bathroom downstairs while the large bedroom was upstairs. The suite was furnished very tastefully with an almost Scandi vibe to it - relaxing, contemporary and understated. The hotel's location suited us well as tourists, being walking distance to most places we wanted to see. The streets are hilly and cobbled so we wouldn't recommend this area to older visitors, but it was fine for us. The historic tram 28 was very close by and the area was incredibly busy during our visit thanks to the annual festival being on and also Santo Antonio festival at the same time. As a result, it was noisy into the small hours and the streets were covered in rubbish the entire time we were there. Our room insulated us from much of the noise, thankfully! Maybe avoid this time of year if you're looking for a quieter experience. We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Our room was a nice place to be, the staff always acknowledged us as we came and went, and our departure was made easier by their handy transfer service, right from the door.

We loved our stay at Convento, even though we had a rough start, we were lost for about 2 hrs because Uber did not know where it was and the building is not clearly marked from the place were we were dropped off, it is off the main street in a road that has no access, I had to call the hotel in order to get clear directions, they should write it on property information. After that we x checked in and all was smooth sailing, staff is absolutely great and super helpful and welcoming, from the front desk person to the breakfast staff, breakfast by the way was great with plenty of choices, thanks so much and will highly recommend!

My sister and I stayed here for 5 nights, we chose this hotel based on reviews and affordability. I really enjoyed that the hotel was clean and had air conditioning, it is also walking distance from various restaurants. We went to a steak restaurant about a 5 minute walking distance away and it was great. I did not expect the rooms to be as tiny as they were. Even the “full length” mirror was half the size of the ones you can get at Walmart. The room being tiny wouldn’t have bothered me as much if the bathroom was a reasonable size but it wasn’t, in my opinion. The bathroom sink is very small and the shower is not fully enclosed. So the back of the shower is open towards the sink. My sister and I rented a car while in Lisbon and there was no parking nearby so we parked about ten minutes away near the port. If you are a “traveler” so to speak or a minimalist you’ll enjoy this hotel. If you are a vacationer and not a minimalist you’ll be disappointed by this hotel.

Nice area.Good and delicious breakfast. Hotel renovation is new and very clean
