Mama Shelter was a hip hotel with a nice restaurant and roof top bar. It’s definitely a solid 3 stars for lodging. The pros: Check in was easy, the staff was super pleasant and we were lucky our room was ready a couple of hours before official check-in. I really liked the bathroom products - clean and eco friendly. The location is central, convenient to everything you need. Cons: We chose a cozy room which was as stated- tiny. It was hard to have two half open suitcases. For a solo traveler, it would be more than sufficient though! When we walked into our room, it smelled like wet laundry that had been sitting out. I opened a window and it helped, but I think it was the bedding. We had a short two night stay so it was bearable with the windows open to air the room. Wish there were usb outlets since we only had 1 travel adapter. Overall, it was a fine stay. I’d say the lodging and decor is skewed for a younger crowd.

The location is fantastic. Easy walking to the metro and the city squares. Easy commute to the airport via public transport. The hotel staff were excellent. Dinner was very good and a lively atmosphere in the restaurant. Breakfast was average and overpriced. (Food often cold) Would stay here again and highly recommend ( but without breakfast!)

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mama Shelter! We were greeted with friendly service and a voucher for a free drink at the restaurant bar to celebrate our honeymoon. All the staff have been lovely and helpful. The hotel has a really cool atmosphere and laid back energy. We got a small room with balcony and it’s been 10/10. The room is small but just fine for the two of us. The bed is extremely comfortable with high quality cotton linen. The bathroom is well stocked with really nice toiletries and towels. Everything is perfectly clean. The tv is good with lots of free premium movies and channels in all languages available. The location is really great as a tourist to get around. We especially loved being able to walk to many great restaurants and shops nearby. If you want to hack the Lisbon hills, highly recommend starting a walking day out at the hotel and making your way down to the water, stopping along the way at the lovely cafes, shops and parks along the way. The streets outside are very loud and busy but this was no issue as the sound proofing in the room was great. Good mini fridge and safe also available in the room. The breakfast buffet was a highlight with many options that were so tasty. The fresh orange juice was a favourite! The roof top bar was awesome for the views but keep in mind it’s pretty pricey -especially the drinks. We enjoyed it though! Overall, would recommend Mama and would happily come back in the future! Thanks Mama! We had a great time.

Amazing Stay with Incredible Vibes! My stay was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of charm. The decor blends modern elegance with classic Portuguese touches, creating a stylish yet cozy environment. The staff was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was great! The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, with comfortable beds and stunning city views. The location was ideal. Plus, the on-site breakfast was delicious, with fresh pastries, local cheeses, and excellent coffee to start the day right. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The location was wonderful. It was close enough to walk to shops and restaurants & to explore yet also away from the more congested tourist areas. I was weary during check in, as the staff at reception did not present as friendly as I'm accustomed to from hotel staff when traveling. My Expedia rewards status was not honored. I was given some cookies, fruit and hotel slippers as compensation. During check in I was not told I needed to use the keycard for my room door to activate the elevator and to keep the light on in my room. I thought it was strange that another hotel guest needed to show me how to use the elevator rather than reception upon checking in and I needed to return to reception to ask how to keep the lights on in the room. Most troubling was when I went into the hotel restaurant for the breakfast that I prepaid for, I felt the hostess treated me as though I was criminal, as apparently my room number was not yet entered into her database of guest who prepaid for breakfast. Her disposition and demeanor was very rude as she debated me about my breakfast status and she exclaimed she would need to go with me to the front desk to look into this. At the front desk after speaking to me in English, she spoke to staff at reception in Portuguese in front of me making me feel even more like a criminal and I found it rude. Staff at reception appeared warmer as my stay progressed and I did find it sweet that they found out it was my birthday and surprised me with dessert.
