Rough Guide "Designed by architect Álvaro Siza Viera, this stylish hotel has lovely communal areas – orange segment-shaped windows give glimpses of Chiado in one direction and the whole city in the other."
Star Service "This hotel opens up a very desirable neighborhood to many who would otherwise pass it by. The hotel's location, the best asset here, is the primary draw for repeat guests.
