Hotel Riverside Alfama

Location, Location, Location!!!

I loved Lisbon and I loved the location and the convenience that that offered. The room was rated as a superior twin and I couldn't have asked for a better place for me. I was traveling alone and felt totally comfortable walking home at any time of night. The room was clean and included anything I could have wanted, including a good breakfast. The staff was there and could not have been more helpful or more accommodating. I arrived off of a cruise many hours before check-in and returned later to find that my bags had been delivered to my room, which was very much appreciated.

I did not like the fact that I agreed to pay 200 Euro per night and arrived to find a sheet included in the information folder in my room that said the rate range for my room was 110 Euro to 150 Euro. I was there in November which is probably not "highest of high" seasons. While I do understand that prices may have recently increased, a 33.33% increase from 150 to 200 seems more than a tad steep even if November is still considered the high season.
