Solar do Castelo is a very special place. It’s like a little retreat atop the hectic and narrow streets of Alfama, right next to the Palace of Sao Jorge. Quiet and calm (except for the resident peacocks, which strangely we got used to), it’s a restful place that feels more like an inn. My only slight complaint was the bathroom was a bit cramped (compared to other 5-star hotels we stayed at in Sesimbra and Porto) but it was well appointed. The bed was very comfortable, and they even offer to make it softer for you if you want, by adding a topper. I took them up on that offer and it was amazing. The staff is genuinely nice and helpful. Although you have to huff and puff to get up here, it’s ultimately worth it. One thing to note: everything I read said cars could not come all the way up to the hotel, but this proved not to be entirely true. Taxis have a special pass that allows them to get past the “pins” - traffic posts that come out of the ground and lower if you have the pass thingy. Ubers and cars can only come up so far.

As soon as we walked in, we loved it. It is stylish, and large - a really large lounge, with wonderful views over the river to the bridge. It also has a lovely conservatory! This is a real sun trap, facing the river. The terrace is mostly to the back, facing the city, for sunsets. The main room is large, comfortable king bed, lots of storage space. The second room is two single beds. Both rooms have superb black out blinds for total darkness. The kitchen is a great size, superb coffee machine (coffee is a token amount to buy), all you need, nice bar to eat from too. The whole place is stylishly decorated, with warm heating for the winter. Our premium apartmentfelt like a penthouse. The area is really practical to live in - in fact better than downtown for a family, as the mall is huge, open late, with great food options. There are also some superb food trucks at the station. The transport links are superb - train, metro, bus. The local area is really chilled, with the aquarium and science museum - both brilliant for families. The host is really helpful too. This was a perfect stay for a family who likes to go out to the city, but also have a local neighbourhood that is modern, safe, and full of family eating options. This apartment is not for you if you want to spend most of the holiday on a comfy sofa watching TV. It is also next to a major train station so if you are a light sleeper, pack ear plugs - like I did. Wonderful apartment, you feel very special here.
