Memmo Alfama Hotel, Lisbon

Superb location and roof terrace with pool overlooking the old town. Beautifully designed rooms and great food. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Very relaxed atmosphere.

The rooms lacked wardrobe space a little bit and the roof terrace would have been more usable throughout the day with better shading but these were minor things.

Beautiful old property renovated to high standard. Lovely charm and quirkiness to it. Views from the rooftop superb both of old town and the sea. Fantastic considering right in Alfamma district. All staff were so helpful and keen to make your stay as smooth as possible. Highly recommend this hotel.

My room needed opaque glass in bathroom door.. fabulous room but if you like your privacy when in bathroom( toilet) then this is an easy fix for hotel. Service from staff was a bit chaotic at times… experienced staff were fantastic but newer staff seemed lost. Really needed someone in charge at times. But saying this they were all great , friendly and so helpful. I would definitely return and highly recommend!

Roof terrace and views

Additional cost for breakfast

Breakfast didn’t start early enough on a day when we had to be out at 7:30am and there was no other option either that the hotel or nearby. So we started our day hungry.

Design, location, view

Nothing

Stunning views, beautiful comfortable rooms, excellent food, and the staff was unbelievably kind snd helpful.

It is tucked away, so on foot it is difficult for people with mobility issues. Lisbon is not terribly easy for handicapped folks.

Pool and bar area was delightful

The hotel was in a great location in Alfama. We took advantage of the free walking tour provided by the hotel, which was great. Staff were really welcoming and friendly. The pool is fantastic with great views of Lisbon and plenty of spots to enjoy the sun and view.

Clean

The hotel was phenomenal- booking.com was a terrible platform to use. You’ve started using bots that spew out garbage emails. I will never use any of these intermediaries again and will build a direct relationship with the hotel in future

Booking.com has actually become like lastmiute. Horrendous. I will only ever go direct to the hotel in future they were helpful and actually gave us the service we were paying w

Perfect. Nilson and rest of the staff 👌🏻

Breakfast was very good and so pleasant on the roof. The bar was very popular. We witnessed an incredible fireworks and drone show over the river one night.

The room was a little tight for our bags but we spent most of our time outside on the roof. I would book the room again as it had a private seating area with an umbrella.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. Very cool roof.

If driving the road is a bit tricky to find

Beautiful location with stunning view at the river and the old town of Alfama. Excellent service from the always friendly and helpfull staff. The room was very clean and comfortable. In the night the room was dark and silent. The breakfast was delicious with fresh juices and fruit and pastry and a whole menu to choose from. The cocktails very good. Also the tapas were very tasty. And did I already tell you about the view?! 😉

The room was quite small with almost no functional cupboards/ closets. The coffee was ok, but not great. the main courses not so very good.

Excellent location in the heart of Alfama. Rooms were nicely designed and represented well on website. Nice to be able to open a window at night and be cooked by the sea breeze. The terrace bar was a lovely spot in the evening for drinks and a snack when the beating sun moved off it. Good food menu at the terrace bar. Appreciated the bottle of water each day. Great recommendations of where to eat and main sight.

Location made access with Ubers a little bit challenging due to congestion on the roads. Twin share room had a bathroom which had curtain for privacy while double room had door which closed. Service at the terrace bar was slow at times with a few of the listed drinks not available. Pool located within bar area made it less attractive to swim.

the location is super , in the heart of alfama district with walkable distance to almost everywhere around . the rooftop bar has absolutely a stunning view with variety of high quality food , drinks and snacks. breakfast and service is 10 out of 10 with the most friendly staff

rooms are little tiny and some has no view

Fantastic hotel in a great location. Very clean and comfortable. They ran out of teabags...but that was my only complaint! Would definitely use again if I visited Lisbon.

Location & views

Bed was hard and bedroom small . Air conditioning was only one setting and very cold

The hotel is located off of a small side street in the busy Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon, one of the oldest in Lisbon. It is a neat, well designed and clean hotel. The staff is great! Very helpful and accomodating. The have a nice breakfast buffet. There is an upstairs bar with a beautiful view of the bay. We had dinner at their restaurant one evening where a Fado group performed. They were great! We consider that evening to be one of the best during our stay in Lisbon. Obrigado!

Can't think of a thing!

Some of the best views of the city. Small hotel with a feel of exclusivity. The pool area is stunning.

The pool was being renovated while i was there, with an ugly metal fence around the outside. Spoiled the setting a little. Alfama is one of the epicentres of the most touristy part of town. If you don't want to be swamped with tourists maybe an area further north would be better.

Everything!

The room was small

Beautiful hotel with a friendly staff and great location in the heart of the historic Alfama district. We especially enjoyed the rooftop tapas and wine! The fado concert was great way to top it off

Great location and nice property and accommodation. The staff is fantastic

Nothing

Relaxed & comfortable hotel in peaceful cul de sac. Staff welcoming & helpful. A few minor issues keeping up with replenishing supplies at breakfast at busy times , & keeping coffee hot enough.

I love the location, the view, the staff, the breakfast buffet, and the tapas.

Beautiful views from room and terrace, relaxed atmosphere, excellent breakfast, attentive staff, peaceful location.

The Alfama district offers a wonderfully tranquil setting for this lovely and clean hotel, which is well-equipped. The staff are incredibly attentive. I would highly recommend it.

Stayed at the Memmo Alfama for five nights. From arriving at reception to saying farewell 5 days later we enjoyed every minute. The hotel is modern, well designed and in the old part of the city, located quite near to the cathedral. We opted for a room with access to the terrace and were pleased we had paid the little extra. All rooms have access to the terraces which overlook the estuary. The breakfast is exceptional with a large range of hot and cold food available. Eat in your room, in the breakfast room or on the terrace, your choice. So relaxing. The Fado night in the Living Room on the Tuesday was very pleasant. Like everywhere else in Lisbon you need to walk up and down hills to get anywhere. The staff at the hotel (thanks Anea, Monica and Ingrid in particular) are all so helpful and caring.

Beautiful hotel and great staff. It is down a very long cobblestoned alley which was very difficult to walk up to the street.

The long road into the hotel. Very difficult to walk.

This trip was a gift for my sister and her husband, who was celebrating a big birthday and had never been to Lisbon before. The hotel more than met their expectations. They loved the design and the friendliness of the staff and also said it was easy to settle into the routine of the hotel and feel at home quickly. The location was wonderful.

Beautifully maintained and wonderful staff welcome.

Location of hotel, quality of room and food and exceptional professionalism of staff

The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The hotel is in a great location and we had a lovely view from our room. The room had plenty of space for two people and was very clean and comfortable.

The breakfast options to order from the menu were pretty small portions.

Having breakfast overlooking the estuary, superb view and great breakfast. There are several terraces all overlooking the estuary, great for a relaxing drink and the location of the hotel is perfect. We normally go our to eat in the evenings but the food here is really good and the view can't be bettered by a street restaurant.

Struggling.....a brighter light in the room for those occasions when you need one perhaps (minor point).

This is a special hotel. I keep daydreaming about my trip and can't wait to go back. The staff are fantastic, approachable and friendly and the location and hotel are just unrivalled.

Great location tucked away in the old town of Alfama, loverly and helpful staff who made our stay relaxing and luxurious. The breakfast each morning was our highlight, fantastic selection of foods and delicious coffee! I’m not usually a hotel breakfast attendee however this breakfast was not to be missed

I can not fault this hotel, 5 stars from me!

It was a great design hotel. The rooms, the view, the breakfast were all excellent. The staff at the reception we're great!

The rooms were small especially for us who had 2 big bags. Also the location of the entrance to the hotel although safe is in an alley where not a lot of taxis or uber want to come through. They will want to pick and drop you on the main road where the alley starts. Otherwise it was great for our liking..

Everything was absolutely perfect. The outside area with views is breathtaking.

Had a wonderful stay! Beautiful design, amazing rooftop views, and incredibly friendly staff. It’s the perfect spot to relax while being close to all the sights. Good breakfast, comfy bed and other facilities. Highly recommend!

Honestly, this is my new favourite hotel and have already recommended it to a visiting friend who has booked herself in! It's so charming, totally modern but with incredible views over the totally enchanting Alfama. I'm pretty sure I was given an upgrade with my own private terrace and that was truly really lovely. But even if you don't have that, to sit round the pool - anytime of the day to have a coffee, cocktail or glass of wine is probably going to be one of your highlights in Lisbon. Breakfast and staff were excellent. They were both relaxed and efficient, everything was easy but everything was totally taken care of.

The design and interior of the hotel was stunning, the views over Alfama and out to the river just amazing. The reception staff were also really helpful with their advice and guidance also the bar area and quality of the wines were exceptional.

Amazing location, super friendly staff, excellent breakfast, everything was fantastic

Upon arrival I was welcomed by the friendliest staff and blown away by the modern yet cozy architecture of the hotel. The views overlooking the city were exceptional. I woke up to a beautiful and delicious breakfast spread. Perfect location where I could get to and from places easily. Loved every single detail and would book again in the future.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had an exceptional experience! The staff were absolutely amazing—always helpful, friendly, and attentive to every detail. Their warm hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. One of the highlights of my visit was the events organized by the hotel. I especially loved the bossa nova evenings—it was such a relaxing and unique touch that added a vibrant and soothing atmosphere. The music created a perfect ambiance, making my evenings truly memorable. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. I would definitely go back again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a welcoming and enjoyable place to stay!

The hotel is in a great location in the old part of the city making it easy to explore Lisbon on foot.The staff were friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable and a super buffet breakfast with cooked choices too including gluten free bread.

Lovely staffs

We had a great experience in the hotel. It is cozy and beautiful. The room was original, with a transparent glass bathroom. The staff was very friendly. It was a very enjoyable environment. We had a sea view, which made the stay even more pleasant. Breakfast was top! We will definitely considering to come back.

Sound isolation:)

Very comfortable room, area and hotel quiet, very clean. Staff all attentive and helpful. Would go again.

Nothing worth mentioning.

Quiet. Good service. Excellent views. Lovely breakfast. Good sized rooms. Friendly and excellent service.

Breakfast was superb, great selection of fruit to begin with then more hot food options and of course pastries. Must have the best views of Lisbon.

Room was a little odd shaped and lacked space.
