"My family and I enjoyed our stay at Upon Vila. The check-in and checkout processes are easy and convenient. Our room was clean and spacious for all three of us and had an excellent view of the Tagus and the Lisbon coast. The staff were very helpful with suggesting restaurants and assisting us with our needs throughout the stay. If you are looking for a beautiful and calm area to stay in that feels more local and less touristy, then Upon Vila in Alcochete is the place to stay. It is a little ways from Lisbon, but the public transportation is robust and easy to navigate to the city. We would definitely recommend it and return in the future!"
"The staff at the front desk were very pleasant. Our room was recently renovated as were all the rooms I believe. The breakfast was good and included fresh croissants. The parking spots were nice and wide and well lit. Overall we had a great experience and would book there again. "
"location super relaxing, specially first thing in the morning waking up with birds singing-priceless!! Very comfortable bed and also pillows. Supplied bathrobes but had to ask for slippers. Breakfast was ok, not a massive variety but was enough, a couple of times the eggs looked like was sitting there for long time, but i asked for a fresh ones and that was provided. Staff was somehow ok, not the most polite and informative i have come across, but if you ask a question they will answer you. Room/apartment was spacious but bathroom was small. Cleaning of the apartment was very poor a couple of times i had to clean it myself, one time i left a dirty kitchen cloth on the bathroom floor with dirty bath towels for this to be changed and that was picked up for the floor and put back again in the kitchen, that's was extremely bad of the cleaners doing that! I had to go to reception to complain and they sent a clean one. "
"In this rather quite city this at first sight somewhat unimpressive set of buildings making up a villa from the 16th century I found a kind of calm that new hotels cannot give you. Charming rooms, a calming courtyard and a garden that feels like a park results in an enjoyable atmosphere. But you will not get services that larger, modern and more luxurious hotels can give, but I did not miss that one second. Likewise, breakfast had all you need, but not more, and was in an cellar built with arches built with bricks that at least looked roman to my untrained eyes.
The area was quite in early March, but there were many smaller restaurants nearby, and a large outlet-mall at the outskirts of the city.
After a longer vacation travelling around much of northern Portugal I was looking for a place to relax, and here found the perfect place!"
"The check in was tremendous. We arrived early ( early flight) and the staff made us feel welcome as we needed a rest. We were asleep by 11:30am! Weather was a little cool for enjoying the pool, but it looked inviting. We were served a glass of port before we retired that evening. And the complimentary breakfast was truly delicious! "
