“This is not a hotel, but an experience! All perfect! So calm, intimate, feels like it’s all for us. Exceptional materials, from the decor, textiles, linens to the artisanal toiletries. The corner room we had was wonderful, very very beautiful, felt like a cocoon. Very friendly and efficient service with the best breakfast one could ever eat anywhere. Outstanding quality made just for us. Highly praised, we already miss it.”

“The hotel is exquisite! The decor simple and elegant! The guest service – unbelievable helpful and kind, warm and knowledgeable! The good delicious and a feast for the eyes! The people helping make our stay from clean rooms, to dining, to reservations and recommendations-were top notch! The bed was amazing!

“Loved this hotel. Excellent experience and fabulous breakfast/brunch. This hotel is located in an Arts and Music neighborhood where the food scene is to die for. The hotel staff met all expectations plus more. For our first visit to Lisbon this was a small quiet hotel in the best neighborhood. The staff took care of referring us to great restaurants and helped with our next step travel plans.”

“Absolutely Fabulous Stay – A Hidden Gem!
We stayed at this lovely hotel for 3 nights, and what a fabulous stay it was! Our room on the 3rd floor—with a spacious balcony—offered a stunning view of the river, and we could even see the iconic Christ the King! Simply breathtaking! I’m so pleased we chose this charming hotel over the standard commercial ones. It felt personal, warm, and unforgettable. Five stars all the way. We will definitely be back!”

“Very pleasant ambience that immediately gives a home feeling through professional appearance of the staff.
The entire hotel is traditionally restored outside in the style of Lisbon’s old town houses, inside it is objectively modern, bright, in a restrained design language, with many shades of offwhite, white and wonderfully warm woods and limestones. Everything follows a modern and sustainable concept.”
Stephan, October 2024
“This place is one of the best places I have stayed in, from the lobby, room and kitchen – everything is perfect. The kitchen and staff are the best we have met. It feels like you are home but with a luxury staff and feeling. We got perfect prepared breakfast just how we wanted and unlimited coffee in every kind. It was such a great place to wake up to. The area is quiet and close to the city. Rooms are designed in calm and soothing colors. We love our stay. Thank you!”

“I honestly can’t find one negative comment about this place! This is a very cozy place, located in a very nice location, has a very comfy bed, serves great quality breakfast, and has amazing staff! We booked the room with the balcony it was on point and to our preference. Loved the style of the hotel and the amenities they provided! It was of very good quality! It really shows the amount of care and love the owners give to this investment! I will definitely stay here again and again!”

“The Montecarmo12 is the best hotel I have been to so far. From the reception to the room. The cleanliness is excellent! The decoration throughout the hotel is a very modern style that I personally really liked. You will not find the price-performance ratio anywhere else in Lisbon. The images are 1 to 1 as in real. The service is uncomplicated and very fast. Montecarmo12 is very well located, everything is close by. I can only recommend it!“
