LR Guest House

This is a charming and wonderful guest house well-located in the Bairro Alto area of Lisbon. (close to Baixa) It is s short walk downhill to the river, the Time Out indoor food emporium, and to tram and train connections. Having been in Portugal at several hotels now for 9 days, I can say definitively that LR has the best breakfast! Breads picked up that morning from a local bakery, freshly made omelets or other egg styled made to order, sautéed vegetables, small batch yogurt, freshly squeezed oj, and latte or cappuccino. Diogo is a fantastic host/manager with many touring suggestions. David and Milena also are charming, warm, and helpful. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom spacious. There’s an outdoor patio for the use of LR Guest House guests only. They have s small honor bar so you can sample the liquors that are produced in Portugal. They may have wines as well. My only caution is that there are about 10 marble and then 8 wood steps to go from the entrance up to the reception area and guest rooms. They will carry up your luggage. Lisbon is absolutely worth visiting. My friend and I really enjoyed the Belem area, the many beautiful squares, the seafood at local restaurants, and the decorated tiles and iron balconies on the homes. One of the highlights for me was the Tile Museum. A must-see if you like historical examples of tiles dating back to the Moors. We took a group day trip to Sintra and were very glad to see the palaces and spend time in town.

Bed pillows were not great.

We had a lovely visit at this guesthouse! The host was so friendly and the breakfast was amazing. The neighborhood is full of bars and restaurants which means that there’ll be some noice during evenings, so bring earplugs (the hotel also provided us with this). We’re super happy our our stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Lisbon.

Séjour parfait ! Séjour parfait, un excellent service, Antonio, Diogo et David ont été très accueillants et ont permis que nous passions un excellant séjour à Lisbonne.

I have nothing but praise for the LR Guest House in Lisbon. Much preferred over a hotel! It is so much cozier, friendlier and has so many thoughtful touches. As a solo traveller, I was very well cared for from the moment I arrived. The environs were quite noisy after about 8 pm, but the earplugs provided worked like a charm! I highly recommend this place!

Fabulous accommodation and personnel in a good location. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived. The staff are phenomenal and work really hard to be as helpful as possible. The rooms were high standard and very well maintained. I have no hesitation in recommending.
