My wife and I had a long weekend in Lisbon and stayed in the Don Carlos junior suite of the hotel. The room was on the first floor, overlooking the road. We were just above the level of the tram roof when it passed.Fortunately the original shutters were in place and kept street noise to a minimum.But we enjoyed the sight of the tram coming up ther hill. The suite was spacious, but minimally furnished which accentated its spaciousness. It could have done with additional storage and seating. The double bed was a good king size with an excellent firm mattress, plenty of pillows so we enjoyed a good night's sleep. The restoration work was evident in the quality plaster work of the ceiling and the chandelier. The bathroom was similarly spacious but again needed more storage surfaces around the washbasin area. Some seating would also have been appreciated. Most of all , for a couple, a single washand basin was inadequate. The lighting was also inadequte for a lady to make up in the evening. The shower worked well but the whole enclosure could have easily accommodated a bath. Surprisingly, given the overall quality of the finishing and art work, one had the impression that minor fittings had been overlooked - loose taps, doorhandles and towel rails. However, when these details were pointed out to management, the remedial action was immediate! On arrival, we were received with a most courteous detailed introduction to the hotel. One to remember. This courtesy was replicated by all reception staff who were super helpful. Breakfast was excellent but some of the waiting staff maybe lacked some training. At first we thought the location a bit down market but soon discovered we were very close to main streets, and were able to walk with ease down to Chiada. It was a real bonus to meet the owners. Their willingness to talk about the hotel"project" was honest, interesting and helpful.They were keen to get feedback and build this into ongoing development. 10/10 for this!
