Dare Lisbon House

The location is fantastic. About a three minute walk to either Rossio Square (metro, trams) or the Placa do Comercio. One of the major pedestrian shopping / restaurant areas is literally the next street over. The staff is exceedingly helpful and attentive, also everyone spoke excellent English which was great. Check in time is 3pm,and it seems to be fairly firm, but they happily watched our bags when we arrived in the morning and had the bags delivered to our room by 5pm when we finally made it back from our first day of exploring the city. The do it yourself breakfast is fantastic and really suited us well. Bread, eggs, oranges for juice, assorted fruit, yogurt, granola and dry cereal each day. Housekeeping replaces the items you use each day so that you are fully stocked for the next. Also milk in the fridge and a espresso machine. There is an elevator which was very nice for moving our luggage and if we were too worn out at the end of the day - though after a day walking around Lisboa, what is another three flights of steps?! Hotel also can arrange a hotel shuttle back which is convenient. Taxi from the airport on the first day was 28 Euro (Feb 2023). We were glad to have done that instead of Metro, while the walk is short, it's cobblestones most of the way to the hotel. Could not recommend this hotel more. If we ever come back to Lisboa, we will certainly look here first. I wish that they had locations in other cities, as other hotels like the Dare Lisbon House would be a must.

We experienced friendly staff, the location was perfect and the room met expectations. The flexibility of being able to have breakfast in the room at the time you want to is also very nice. The Dare Lisbon House offered us everything we hoped and more (we enjoyed the complementary wines). I advise anyone in Lisbon to stay here. As a light sleeper, I was bothered by sounds from the lobby during our first night. Noises can be heard very well in the rooms on the first floor. This can happen with older buildings, and was not a huge problem for me. I purchased some earplugs across the street, and the problem was solved.

The whole experience was fantastic, when arriving in reception we were greeted with tea/coffee/wine and told it was complimentary for our entire stay, if you wanted one, just call down and ask, which we did a couple of times, They also recommended where to go and see around Lisbon including recommending a different tram than the usual one, and or us NOT to wait on the Santa Justa lift if we simply wanted to see the views, we could walk up the stairs to do this. The breakfast was a continental style make it yourself in the room, with fresh fruit, including oranges and an electric juicer, milk, eggs, granola, yoghurts, jams, butter etc. and fresh bread and pastries delivered each morning at 8am. Room was spacious, comfortable and a short walk from lots of tourist attractions. Highly recommend to anyone thinking of going.

The main reasons we chose this hotel were a great location and they had some one at reception 24 hours a day. They lined up a catamaran tour for us and a taxi to get us there, and ordered a taxi to the airport. The bed was comfortable, A/C worked great and there was plenty of hot water. The stocked the kitchen with breakfast items and brought fresh pastries to our door at 8AM. We usually ate the pastries in the morning and would have the eggs and cereal for another meal.

Location was close to everything! It is on a side street, one street over from the Main pedestrian Street of attraction leading to the Arch & water at one end and Rossio Square on the other. So the location was the best of both worlds — quiet yet also in the heart. Also the staff were absolutely amazing! They always provided what we needed and did it immediately. Since it is a boutique, you get personal service and it is staffed 24 hours a day. Which meant if at 11pm we needed something, all we needed to do was call down to the front desk and they provided it. The bed was comfortable. We had daily housekeeping and could exchange our towels whenever we wanted. We controlled the temperature in the room once we figured out the controls. There was an elevator to our room — no need to carry luggage up stairs. All in all, we definitely recommend Dare Lisbon House.
