Corpo Santo Lisbon Historical Hotel
5/5 Excellent
"The hotel is well laid out with lovely spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and, a rather unique feature, a shower that has various mood music and lights that you can set to your liking. The rooms are well equipped and include a complimentary mini-bar. The hotel has nice features, where they provide a different treat in your room each day. The hotel also do special happy hours each day which is a nice touch. The breakfast included in the room rate is very generous. The food quality at the hotel is first rate for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The real asset of this lovely hotel is the staff. They are quite simply fantastic and so attentive to your needs. The staff could not help you enough, and they are so friendly and enthusiastic in their work. The area around the hotel is nice and vibrant as you are in the Old Town district of Lisbon. I have stayed at this hotel twice now and I would not hesitate in staying again. I completely recommend it. A wonderful hotel! "

5/5 Excellent
The emerald is truly a little gem
"I originally planned to stay at a much more expensive hotel, but due to Covid restrictions I was current concerned I would lose my deposit so I switched to this hotel for three days. I am now at the other hotel missing this hotel very much. The location was excellent as it was in the center location of the entire city and easy to walk to all places. That’s providing you are in decent shape. The amenities in the room are first class. Easy charging stations right next to the bed. Bathroom included a lighted makeup mirror which is always a nice addition. The large screen TV in the elegantly decorated rooms and it very comfortable. The rooms are very small but not an issue. I would definitely stay here again as my current hotel is one of the best hotels in the city and twice the price and the amenities aren’t nearly as nice."
