Our stay here was amazing. The staff are helpful, kind, and involved. They saw it was my birthday on my passport and sent a little surprise to the room, going above and beyond in so many ways. My fiancé and I will definitely stay here again when we visit Portugal in the future!

Great property in a local neighbourhood!
The hotel is located in a quiet street in a very central location, minutes walk from local restaurants, bars, cafe's and picturesque squares. The hotel itself is beautifully kept. Our room was spacious, comfortable and delivered a restful place to retire to after a day's sight-seeing. The breakfasts were terrific and the staff very accommodating, especially as I had food intolerances. The only down-side was the damp condition of some of the walls in our bathroom, which required airing after showering. The rooms were also on the colder side as we visited during a chilly time of the year. I would have also opted for a room with a better view but definitely something to note for our next visit!

The great reviews are accurate: this hotel is fantastic! The staff are very responsive and helpful, the breakfast is plentiful and tasty, and the room was quiet and comfortable.

We had an incredible time here. 1869 Principe Real is the kind of bed and breakfast where it is clear that thought and care have been put into every part of the experience. The staff is friendly and helpful, the rooms are beautiful, and the in-room breakfast was a great touch. I couldn't recommend the 1869 Principe Real more.

Great room. Top floor. Reception super nice and so helpful. Wifi excellent. Breakfast good. Comfortable bed. Neighbourhood awesome. Only issue was third floor room right across a restaurant so the last night had to go to bed early and could not sleep from the noise. First night not an issue as I went to bed late. So I suggest yes definitely stay here!! But if noise will bother you request not to be on the third floor which should resolve the issue.

Nice Boutique Hotel
Great small hotel with a good location. Modern and up to date in a historic building. Beds were very comfortable and large. Also very quiet as the street is narrow and has limited traffic. Lots of little restaurants in the area for lunch and dinner. Overall this is a pleasant hotel in a good location.

This is a very nice property in a great area if you don’t mind a little walking up and down hills. There are many restaurants very close by and, it’s only a 10 minute walk to churches and shopping. We had a large room on the ground floor, which we thought would be noisy, but there were additional doors to the bedroom for quiet sleeping. There was a livingroom with 2 arm chairs and a tv, but it could have been more inviting. It would have been better if there was a coffee maker or small refrigerator in the room. Breakfast was a nice continental breakfast with cereals, breads, fruit, and lunch meat. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a nice stay.

Disappointing stay
While the gentleman that checked us in was really nice and helpful, hotel was really dated and subpar. I am happy we only stayed the one night there. There was no elevator, the doors and windows are pretty light and lots of noise can be heard in the room. Also, it more like a converted multi-apartment house vs. hotel with any kinds of services.

Great location and very friendly staff. The street is one car wide so you can barely stop there to unload your stuff, but can't leave a car waiting for you to check-in or out. Not much of a view given that the street is very narrow.

This hotel is an absolute gem in the middle of the best neighborhood in Lisbon! Francisco anticipated our every need and desire and flawlessly arranged everything from a Tuk Tuk guided tour to massages and restaurant recommendations for us. The hotel itself is luxurious and clean, and extremely quiet which is astounding given how close to the action it is. Our terraced room was divine and the in-room breakfast delivered to us at our desired breakfast time was abundant and delicious. Really can’t say enough about how pampered we felt during our stay at 1869. We travel a lot and this hotel experience stood out as one of the very best.
