## Description

Hotel Riverside Alfama is a three-star hotel with 21 rooms in a four-storey building opposite Casa dos Bicos. The river-view doubles make the most of this low-lying position; standard rooms look elsewhere and cost less. Rooms are modest in size, with private bathrooms, air conditioning and Wi-Fi, and breakfast is served each morning.

The location solves one of Alfama's recurring practical problems. Taxis can approach along the riverfront and Terreiro do Paço metro station is close by, so arrival does not require dragging a case over steps. The old quarter still rises immediately behind the hotel. There is a lift and one room registered for guests with reduced mobility, but that does not make the surrounding hillside level.

## What guests report

The small team is remembered for kindness and practical help, often long after the room itself. Breakfast is another consistent strength, and river-facing rooms deliver the outlook promised by their category. Rooms are not large, particularly once luggage is open, and the difference between a standard room and a superior river view is meaningful. Light sleepers should also consider that a waterside urban address can bring traffic when windows are open.
