Heritage Av Liberdade - Lisbon, Portugal 

"A charming little hotel"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
We just came back from a few days in sunny Lisbon for New year's Eve. Hotel heritage is a charming little "boutique hotel", very well located in the center of the old town and right in the middle between Alfama and Bairro Alto, two of the most lively and interesting neighbourhoods. From the hotel, you can easily walk there or to the seafront. The metro station is 2 minutes from the hotel and trams also stop nearby, although Rossio train station is currently closed for refurbishment (so you must go a little farther to catch a train to Sintra or Cascais). The hotel is a very tasteful restoration of an old 6 floor-building, with a modern twist: (small) plasma screen with DVD, huge bathroom, comfy bed, wifi everywhere, and a small pool and gym. It's perfect for a romantic getaway, and also great for a trip with friends as you can annex the nice and cosy lounge downstairs for breakfast until noon! Staff is very helpful and full of local information. I wouldn't recommend the (poor) room service though. The more spacious rooms are on the mezzanine level but they're quite noisy because of a ringing redlight just below. If you're looking for calm, ask for a corner room at a higher level (we were in n?25 - huge bathroom), as they are slightly smaller but also more quiet and very bright. The city itself is charming, especially when it's 20? outside in December! Lots of beautiful buildings and churches to visit, and lots of "pastelarias" to stop by! Nightlife is great, with very nice restaurants and cocktail bars everywhere. If you have time and want to leave the city, don't miss the trip to beautiful Sintra: it's a real journey to Wonderland.

We spent one night at this hotel, which we found in a guide book. I usually spend a lot of time finding the right hotel, but this time around we did not plan to spend a night in the city. This is truely a great hotel with very friendly staff, large and comfy rooms, location is perfect and the style superb. Just go - nothing more to it.
