Rezervējiet, ja You want to sleep inside a 13th-century convent right in the middle of the action without sacrificing modern AC and strong water pressure.
Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- The open-air cloister with its fire pit is a magical escape from the city buzz
- Unbeatable location: 2 minutes from Rossio Station and walking distance to everything
- Atmospheric architecture that blends ancient stone arches with modern design
Ātrs apskats: A stunning historic renovation with rooms so small you might trip over your suitcase if you don't book carefully.
Pārskatīts: @Adeandblu: I felt like I was sleeping inside an art installation. The mix of the historic convent building with these modern, colorful geometric murals is stunning. Plus, arriving to wine and cheese made me feel instantly at home in Lisbon.

Ko ņemt līdzi

BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Is the pool heated?
Technically yes, but it's a 'plunge pool' and often feels tepid rather than warm. It's indoors, not outdoors.
Does the hotel have parking?
No. You must park at the Hotel Mundial garage (~100m away) for €25/day.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not. It costs ~€25/person. Reviews suggest it's good but service can be slow; you might find better value at a local pastelaria.
How far is the airport?
About 20-30 minutes by Uber (~€15-20) or 45 minutes via the Metro (Rossio station is right outside).
Is it suitable for families?
Not really. Rooms are very small and fitting a rollaway bed is a Tetris challenge.
Is there a gym?
Yes, but it's tiny. Think one treadmill, one elliptical, and some dumbbells. Good for a quick sweat, bad for a serious workout.
Insider padomi
- ✨
Ask for a room with 'Cloister View' — it's significantly quieter than the street side.
- ✨
The 'Sauna' is located next to the pool on the 5th floor and has a nice view of the church.
- ✨
Use the Rossio Metro station entrance practically at the doorstep for easy airport access.
5 lietas, kas jāzina pirms doties
💡The shower screens are designed poorly, often leading to a puddle on the bathroom floor.
💡The 'TV behind the mirror' is a cool trick until you try to watch a dark movie during the day.
💡There are only two loungers by the pool — it's not a place to hang out all afternoon.
💡The 'Cozy' rooms are genuinely tiny; you might have to close your suitcase to walk to the bathroom.
💡The daily tea ritual is often not mentioned at check-in; you have to know to show up for it.
