Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Riverside Alfama enjoys an excellent location, putting guests within easy reach of Lisbon's attractions; indeed, Lisbon Cathedral is practically behind the building. Many find the superior rooms spacious, and those facing the front boast lovely river views. Breakfast is fresh and includes fruit, though a few guests have noted that the selection is simple, with cold cuts and cereal. Conveniently, Metro, ferry, train and tram links are nearby.
