4 days in Lisbon during the Lisbon Marathon

Meticulously renovated traditional building with stunning local blue tiles, stone arches and original staircase. Its comfort and attentive staff contributed to a hugely enjoyable stay.

Excellent position with fabulous choice of restaurants nearby. Very close to Bairro Alto to ease accessibility to the City below, using the esclators.
