Palacio Ramalhete - Lisbon

What a beautiful place to stay. The old stately home was comfortable and the staff are so delightful and helpful.

Located on a very busy two-way street that makes it impossible to stop out front and unload your luggage (if you're driving). Difficult to find parking as the hotel does not provide parking of any kind, and in fact they don't even know which surrounding side streets you can park on for free The staff were friendly and proficient in English, but a bit […] unorganized and scattered. There is no elevator and the staff was not around to help us up 3 flights of stairs. The hotel itself is charming, clean. There's an onsite pool that is very refreshing . The included breakfast was pleasant and the staff will prepare hot food on request. There are restaurants in walking distance but it's not the most pleasant/scenic walk. As we got ready for bed, the air conditioner in our room began briskly leaking water and the staff did not know how to fix it. They gave us towels for the floor and asked that we keep it turned off (which slowed the leaking to an annoying drip). They opened the windows for cooling (It was very warm that night and they didn't even offer a fan, let alone a room change). Mosquitos flew in through the open windows, we were bit multiple times and did not sleep much at all. Next morning the staff apologized but didn't seem that concerned and certainly didn't offer any price reduction for our troubles. OVERALL: it's hard for me to recommend this hotel to a friend when it seems like a crapshoot as to whether you'll have a good experience or not. Read more

The Palacio Ramalhete was lovely - a cool and calm oasis after the hot, dusty streets of Lisbon. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and Daniela gave us a guided tour of the hotel and terraces before showing us to our rooms, which was a nice personal touch. They were also happy to bring us wine while we relaxed by the pool (on the top terrace, […] where there was a nice view of the river) and give us tips on where to eat out (like Picanha next door, a restaurant serving up delicious Brazilian BBQ). The hotel itself was charming, full of quirky features like the original tiling from the palace. The room was a great size, spotlessly clean and comfortable. The bathroom was also huge. The location was also pretty good, not right in the centre of Lisbon but walking distance away, although it was a hot walk! It was easy to catch a bus into the centre though - the staff were also happy to advise us on this. Overall, the hotel had a relaxing, romantic atmosphere, and it felt like staying in your own (if rather grand) place, rather than an anonymous hotel. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Lisbon.

Palacio Ramalhete is a lovely restored palace which has been renovated to the highest standard. The bedrooms are spacious and the dining room and lounge areas have very tasteful furnishings and decor. There is a beautiful courtyard and raised pool at the rear of the hotel, ideal for relaxing after a busy day's sightseeing in Lisbon. The staff were all […] extremely helpful and courteous and are an asset to the hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hidden gem. Read more

Situé très légèrement en dehors du vieux centre de Lisbonne, cet hôtel est de loin une excellente adresse : intérieur raffiné & luxueux, service aux petits oignons, tranquillité assurée et une propreté exemplaire. Encore mieux : le personnel se plie en quatre pour accéder à vos demandes. Je retournerai à Lisbonne, et je choisirai les yeux fermés cet […] hôtel. A noter que si vous n'aimez pas marcher, les taxis se chargeront de vous ramener dans cet havre de paix pour une somme dérisoire. Read more

Das Hotel ist wundervoll unscheinbar von außen, doch hat es von innen um so mehr zu bieten. Wundervoll mit liebe zum Detail eingerichtet und was uns am wichtigsten war, war das wundervoll private Ambiente. Wenige Zimmer, alle liebevoll romantisch eingerichtet. Service war steht's zuvorkommend und sehr freundlich. Nachdem unser Zimmer wegen eines sanitärproblems […] vorrübergehend nicht mehr zu nutzen war, hat man uns nach 1000 Entschuldigungen in die Suite einquartiert. Frühstücksraum mit 4 Tischen, zuvorkommendem Sevice und für portugiesische Verhältnisse üppigem Buffet haben steht's einen gelungenen Start in den Tag ermöglicht. Fazit: Wer ein kleines, privates Hotel mit Stil sucht ist hier genau richtig. Wir würden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen! Read more
