We started our Portugal trip with 3 days in Lisbon, staying in the Rossio Square area, and ended it with 2 days at the AlmaLusa Baixa & Chiado hotel before flying back to the US. We selected AlmaLusa for a change of pace and to experience another area of Lisbon.
We arrived at the hotel via the train from Faro, and metro into the Baixa-Chiado station. We made the mistake of leaving the station at the top of the hill and had to walk down to get to the hotel. Luckily I found the metro entrance on Rue de Crucifixo which was much closer, making it easier to get to other areas of Lisbon.
AlmaLusa is conveniently situated close to the waterfront, only 3 blocks away. And within 10 minute walk, or metro stop, from Rossio Square. The property is very nice, with polite and helpful staff. And the flavored ice water in the reception area was appreciated since it was hot during our stay. We received a free room upgrade which was extremely nice. Our suite was on the 1st floor and had an "English manor" feel with carpet, dark wood trim and a big brick fireplace in which the tv was located. We also received a complementary bottle of champagne, which is always a nice touch.
We did not use many of the amenities since we were trying to get last minute Lisbon errands done in our two days. But we did dine at the adjacent restaurant (Delfina), enjoying a nice meal in their outdoor patio.
Overall, staying at AlmaLusa Baixa & Chiado hotel was a pleasant way to end our two weeks in Portugal.
