I never write reviews. I hate that the pettiness of random, non-expert strangers can make or break small businesses. But my (35M) stay here with my wife (31F) was so amazing I'm defying my own rule, because it set a standard for comfort and hospitality that will be hard for any other hotel to match moving ahead. It was the best.
The room was high-ceilinged, modern and clean; the rainhead shower was luxurious; there were thoughtful offerings in the bathroom (shaving kit, q-tips) and kitchenette (free soft drinks, beers, Nespresso, and waters, and a much-used freezer); there are sound-blockers that can be closed over the windows, and even though you're right on Pink Street’s amazing bar scene, it was notably quiet inside. If you live in a city you’ll be more than OK.
The bed was as comfy as any I’ve ever slept in. I'm 6'2' and was worried about the footboard, but there was plenty of room. Most crucially, the powerful air conditioning was a godsend in scorching Lisbon, and we slept fabulously.
Our concierges Veronica and Joana were phenomenal, checking in and responding quickly on WhatsApp. They speedily resolved a minor WiFi problem and then offered us luxurious breakfast at sister hotel Corpo Santo, which had some of the warmest staff I've ever met. And all this at great value, in a convenient location.
I know: this sounds like exaggeration. We also wondered: is this real? But HOTPS really was THAT good. Book without hesitation—I’ll stake my first-ever review on that.
