This über clean little boutique hotel employs a wonderful staff whose restaurant recommendations and impeccable directions to the cultural and historical sights in the area were very much appreciated. They are proud of their city and culture, and it showed! (Shout out to Tatiana for her passion and enthusiasm!) Other aspects of the hotel we thought notable: the delicious bottle of red wine and the pastels de nana treat awaiting our arrival; the lovely terrace and open air breakfast space where we enjoyed glasses of Super Bock and gin and tonics after full days of sightseeing; the hotel's convenient location (within walking distance of Lisbon's Se and Sao George Castle) and the two nearby public elevators that allowed quicker access to the Sao George and Praca Commercio neighborhoods; thick bath towels that were in pristine condition; convenient and secure underground parking across the street. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel and highly recommend it.

Expedia adversities that the hotel has air conditioning. When we got there the air conditioning unit just blew room temp air. When I asked them about it, they said since it was March they don’t run the air conditioner. We had to open the windows to a busy street while we slept and woke up a lot. The next night the unit magically started blowing cold air soI guess the figured out a way to turn it on after all but did not notify us

The hotel was in a very safe area, and easy to get to from two metro stations. The hotel was immensely helpful with directions and places to eat etc. One thing to note, would be that the shower in the room (R52), did not have a glass door, so if you are travelling with a friend or family instead of a partner, just make sure you are both happy with that. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay, and super easy start to finish.

The location of this hotel is great. It is almost across the street to an elevator that goes up towards Castel St. Jorge, and there is another one a few buildings away in the same side of the street that takes you down close to the Main Street « Rua Augusta ». It is a short walk to the metro station and to Praça de Comércio. The room is compact, but very functional. Very comfortable bed. Staff are wonderful and very helpful to provide recommendations. Our only negative is that the lighting in the bathroom is so poor that I couldn’t put my make up on or do my hair in the bathroom. Other than that, we would stay here again.

Excellent stylish hotel for artistic souls
I was traveling with my friend and it was our last night in Portugal. We decided to choose this hotel because of its convenient location. And we fell in love with it from the first step in! I wish we could stay longer! I adore dark interiors and Esqina did an incredible designer job to make their dark interior outstanding and chick. Rooms were clean, breakfast fast delicious. And I want to say thank you to all the ladies on reception who helped us and gave a lot of valuable advises about the city and the places. I'm sure I'll return to this place ♥️

The staff were very helpful when we were looking for restaurant options even before we arrived The breakfast is limited .Some rooms are very small. It would be more helpful if staff had more tourist information available for guests Location is good as easy access via elevator to commercial/ restaurant area in old town .
