Corpo Santo Historical Hotel, Lisbon
Expert reviews
“This is an upscale property that opened in 2017 near the lively Cais do Sodré district, with welcoming staff, a convenient location, an on-site restaurant and 77 plush, neutral-hued rooms.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Lisbon.
“Step inside the boutique hotel to discover a sleek aesthetic that expertly fuses modernity with Lisbon’s storied past. An upscale dining room takes décor cues from Portugal’s seafaring history and a swanky lounge built around a preserved section of a 14th-century stone wall invites both curiosity and tranquility.”

Simply wonderful hotel
Everything! Can't say enough about the staff and how everyone made us feel at home. The daily city tours provided by the hotel was just one of the perks that put this hotel on top of its class. The breakfast was amazing I loved that it was made to order and not a buffet. Offering nightly wine and appetizers along with all the wonderful snacks that were available throughout the day was a special treat Another plus, we had a complementary beer, water and sodas in our room and it just made it that special. The hotel is close to all the main public transportation, walking distances to the river and historical sites. Many shopping areas in Baixa-Chaido. Loved the location.
One thing I would suggest is to upgrade the electrical plug with some USB. Thank God I brought some converters to charge my phone and laptop.

One of the best experiences of our lives
What a fantastic place! Great service by every employee at the hotel. Everyone would go above and beyond to help us and make sure we enjoyed our stay. We loved the facilities and enjoyed the free walking tours provided by the hotel. Also enjoyed the free snacks provided in the room and at the lobby specially the soft serve ice cream. They were even flexible when we had to cut our trip short a night due to unforeseen issues and refunded the one remaining night. Would definitely recommend this place.
Absolutely nothing!

Perfect in every way. I would love to stayed every time I am in Lisboa.
An exceptionally comfortable stay. Every little detail was taken care of right from the reception to the room. Ester at the guest service was extremely warm and helpful. The highlight is the walking tour in the morning as well as in the evening which helped us know the city as well as get around on our own. The list is endless… food, service, cleanliness, location everything was perfect!
Can’t think of any.

An excellent three night winter break in one of the best hotels we have stayed in.
This hotel is exceptional. We loved everything from the gorgeous bedrooms, breakfast, complimentary snacks and beverages and the turn down service. The staff were all so highly competent and friendly. Having the concierge talk personally to us at breakfast each morning to ask who our night had been and help us plan our day was excellent service.
There is nothing to dislike.

Best we can experience
Location is super and accessible to most of the tourist places in Lisbon. We enjoyed the complimentary walking tour. It was very informative. What makes this hotel special is the people. They are friendly, warm and resourceful. We have stayed in many hotels around the world and this hotel is different. It’s not luxurious but it feels like home.

First class experience
I loved everything about this hotel! First and foremost the staff - they work incredibly hard to provide first class friendly service. They go out of their way to make your stay special and cannot do enough for you. By far the best service I have ever experienced in a hotel. When we arrived we were given a free upgrade and breakfast package, which was a pleasant surprise. The location is perfect, close to the waterfront and to one of the main squares which leads you towards the city centre where restaurants and shops are plenty. There is a tour bus that stops just opposite the hotel. We also did the walking tour that the hotel organises for free, which was well worth doing. We were taken to see the Christmas lights and Christmas market and really enjoyed the company of the tour guide. The hotel is immaculate, with lots of nice customer experience touches such as the complimentary sweets and ice cream machine in reception, the bowls of fruit and nuts around the hotel, the coffee machine and soft drinks in the lounge and the tasting hour each evening. On the lower floors you can see parts of the original wall that stood there centuries ago which they have curated into an exhibition along with other artefacts. Breakfast was plentiful and we also ate lunch and dinner here during our stay, which were both delicious and good value for money. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.
The bed was very large and spacious but the mattress was very firm, a bit too firm for me.

An absolutely beautiful hotel, full of history. It smells incredible, the facilities and rooms are wonderful. So comfortable and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Snacks on offer all day, the tours were a lovely add on. LOVE the shower, what an experience.

The best hotel experience we’ve ever had
Great central location, the room was wonderfully comfortable and the hotel was very well maintained throughout. The breakfast was excellent, and we could not believe all the complimentary snacks that were available day & night. What really sets this hotel apart is the staff who provided the most outstanding service and were so friendly, kind & accommodating - they all created such a lovely atmosphere. We can’t thank them enough for the amazing hospitality, a rare find indeed!

Luxury & Location at it's best
The location was great as we had decided to do a lot of walking whilst in Lisbon & Porto. The staff were extremely friendly & helpful and they serviced a great breakfast. We also enjoyed the late afternoon social drinks & nibbles. Well done basically on all aspects of our stay experience.
Nothing really as the hotel provided a well rounded service & stay.

The Corpo Santo hotel staff and amenities are exceptional.
The staff here is attentive and friendly. The history of the area is interesting and staying at a hotel that has its own history and free tours with the wonderful downstairs room is great.
The towel racks. I would have used my towels over again if they were draped on a rack allowed to dry.

Great location, lovely room with amazing service from staff
The staff were very friendly and attentive, the location of the hotel is very central but just outside the noisy area, the free snacks were a lovely surprise. The free walking tour was the perfect start to our trip.
Everything was perfect. The only minor annoyance we had were the noisy guests in the room next to us who woke us up very early. Not really the hotels fault though unless something could be done about soundproofing the walls!
