I can’t think of anything

I was at the end of a 6 week trip and travelling solo at this stage. I felt very safe and welcome. I loved the sound and site of the peacocks The breakfast and all day coffee and tea and snacks made me feel welcome and comfortable. The friendly champagne was an absolute delight. Loved the bowl of apples Loved the views from my room

The hill walk back up is not for the faint of heart but we did not mind and it gets quite busy around the castle.

We loved our stay at Solar do Castelo. Location was great, very quiet - apart from the peacocks and classical concert in the castle but it was a treat to sit in the courtyard in the evening and listen. Pick up from airport was extremely helpful given the location being tricky to navigate by car. The refreshments available were a nice touch. The room was comfortable enough and had everything we needed.

Nothing - everything was excellent!

The room was immaculate with great touches such as the carafe of port, topped up daily. The lounge and terrace were excellent in all respects, so relaxing inside or out. Especially the 3-person cushioned sun 'lounger'.... Complimentary coffee, tea and pastries during the day and prosecco after 6pm were gratefully indulged! The staff are wonderful, super helpful and friendly. The breakfast was first-class - quality food, extensive and something for everyone. A perfect set-up for the day. On our last day we flew back late but Solar Do Castelo were happy for us to use the hotel facilities after checkout until our taxi arrived. A memorable stay, thank you!

Not really the fault of the hotel but the peacocks made every morning a 6am start.

It's a lovely location right by the castle. Little bit of an oasis from the madness of Lisbon.

Only one employee did not meet our expectations. I had a significant health issue and most employees transported us in the golf cart for late dinners. One employee would not pick us up and was a bit rude. Other than that it was wonderful.

I loved the location and the historic property. Breakfasts were nice. Outdoor area was lovely with the peacocks. The tours and transports were great.

Everything was wonderful - from the free pickup at the airport, to the welcome at the front desk with a welcome glass of sparkling wine and port in the room! The rooms were comfortable and breakfast was great!

Nothing. But if you like a lively hotel this is not the place for you.

Quirky, full of character, location so quiet at night but so vibrant during the day

I am so grateful for having the opportunity to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary together with my wife at Solar do Castelo in mid-March. It was a very romantic place in historical surroundings. Included in the price of the room was the airport transfer in a nice car with a very friendly driver who in an excellent way drove through narrow alleys all the way to the main entrance of the hotel. The staff at the hotel did their best to give us a very special memory. We received an upgrade for our room, and a special welcome gift waited for us in the room. So kind of them! The inner courtyard was also nice and picturesque where peacocks came and went showing their beauty in different ways. They almost sounded like cats when they made their noises, but we got used to that 😊 A very delicious breakfast was served with a lot of different things to choose between for all tastes. They had freshly squeezed orange juice every morning. I have stayed at many nice hotels during the years but never had that as a standard choice of beverage. Afternoon tea or coffee with a lot of different and delicious pastries were also served every day included in the price. Pastel de nata, the local pastry from Lisbon, was a favorite. Gratefulness, happiness, thankfulness and amazement are a few words that describe my memory of staying three nights at Solar do Castelo! If you want to give your wife a very memorable experience which she never will forget, Solar do Castelo is the place to stay at ❤️ I cannot end this review without thanking God the Almighty, our Father in Heaven, for giving us the possibility to stay at the best place in Lisbon!

The peacocks can be noisy but you soon get used to them. It wouldn't stop us staying here again

A lovely peaceful corner of Lisbon to stay after a busy days sightseeing. We had room 3 room on the ground floor which was light and airy with french doors and looked over the courtyard. The bed was very comfortable. The public area was a great place to relax - drinks and cakes were freely available all day, and sparkling wine in the evening. The courtyard is spacious and relaxing. The staff were very helpful. If we return to Lisbon we would stay here again. It is at the top of a steep hill, so a good pair of trainers are helpful.

The gardens and service.

Situated in a historic building next to the castle, the location offered a charming ambiance. We especially appreciated the delightful private terrace, perfect for savoring breakfast or unwinding in the evening. While the rooms were compact, they were impeccably clean and equipped with everything we needed. The staff was exceptional, displaying utmost professionalism and eagerness to assist with any inquiry. Our experience was truly delightful.

It was LOUD. The hardwood floors are beautiful, but amplify every sound. They had a number of late check ins and I would have thought they were using megaphones to talk to each other. It may have been the location of our (very lovely) room, but I would highly recommend closing the doors from reception to the rooms and getting some more carpets. Also, the window in our room opened WIDE, which I loved, but we struggled with how to have it open at night and still have the curtains mostly closed. Having it tilt open or some other curtain arrangement might help as the room was quite warm.

I LOVED the decor and vibe of the hotel - totally “me”. The staff was wonderful and the location was AMAZING!
