The hotel
Alegria A Lisbon Boutique Hotel occupies a nineteenth-century townhouse facing the garden in Praça da Alegria. Its 36 rooms and suites combine patterned textiles and Portuguese decorative details with air conditioning, minibars and tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast is served on the premises, and the ground-floor bar offers a comfortable place to sit with a drink after a day out.
The square lies just above Avenida da Liberdade, with Príncipe Real farther uphill. Rooms differ more than their shared decorative style suggests. Some look across the garden or open onto a balcony, while others face inwards. Attic and family layouts have their own proportions, and ceiling height, daylight, room size and the possibility of an extra bed vary. Activity in the square is easier to hear when windows are open. Guests who care about a view, outdoor space or additional sleeping arrangements should read the details and photographs for the room they intend to reserve.
Planning your stay
RNET 2966 registers Alegria as a three-star hotel for 72 guests. It has 36 rooms and suites with air conditioning, a minibar and tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast and a bar are available. Balconies, garden views and extra beds depend on the room category.

Before you book
Guests write warmly about the staff and the care given to breakfast, while comfortable beds are mentioned across different room types. Garden-facing rooms add a pleasant outlook, but that view and the balconies seen in photographs belong only to certain categories. Attic and family layouts also differ in ceiling height and floor area. With the windows open, activity in the square becomes easier to hear. Check the individual room description if you particularly want a balcony, garden view, extra bed or full-height ceiling.
