Corpo Santo Lisbon Historical Hotel

The Corpo Santo was superb in every way, but especially in the service and friendliness of every one of the staff, from the desk clerks to the wait staff to the housekeeping staff. There were so many extras that we did not anticipate, like getting a delicious nut tart or several cookies placed in our room while we were out for the day. It was wonderful to see how staff seemed to like one another and worked together for the customer's benefit. An example was having requested a dinner reservation from the concierge, then returning later when the concierge was away from his desk. A desk clerk was already aware of what I had discussed with the concierge and completed the reservation for me. Every evening at around 6 PM, a knowledgeable person serves to pour a particular wine or spirit along with a sampling of some kind of food to try. You may have doubles or triples of these treats. During the day, there is always a cake and other snack foods you can pick up in the lobby. Nothing is ever too much trouble, or done without a cheerful competence. It is no wonder that TripAdvisor rates the Corpo Santo the #1 hotel in Lisbon.

There is really nothing to criticize without being very picky. I might suggest more hand rails in the bathroom, especially in the shower for older clients. But nothing else even comes to mind.

The location was perfect! Walking distance to most points of interest, nightlife just steps away. The whole staff was on point and super helpful. Karen at the front desk was the best! She was very personable, helpful, and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this hotel everyone.
