What a find! I booked over the internet and crossed my fingers. I should not have worried; Botanico Hotel was a perfect base for a couple of “girls” to explore Lisbon. Close to everything yet tucked away from the worst of the city noise, we were able to see the sights of the city on foot – and carry our... More

I stayed at this hotel one night in June 2012 after a horrendous experience at another "hotel" on a central square. So I might be a bit skewed in my feelings for this place because it felt like a haven to me. This place has got a great, safe, comfortable mixture of small-european-corporate-hotel feel and some of the warm-fuzzy of... More

Into nosebleed territory here. Botanico is at the top of a cul de sac with either a zig-zag road or a challenging set of steps to reach the summit. Rooms are a bit poky and not the cleanest. Bathroom was tiny. Breakfast is served in the basement, a good selection available. My tariff said breakfast included. At checkout I was... More

Situated at the very top of Bairro Alto and overlooking Avenida da Liberdade this is a prominent location in Lisbon within 10 minutes' walk to the Metro and nightlife (about 20 minutes' drive to the airport too). Friendly and amenable service from the outset and for €50 for a double room (including a very reasonable breakfast) this hotel offers good... More

Hotel Botanico is wonderful. We were there with my son in September 2009. The hotel has very good location - close to downtown, but on a small quiet street. Rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast was rich and delicious. The staff is very nice and helpful. I would like to visit this hotel again.

I had a great stay at the Botanico. Paolo and Ricardo were very helpful and the 2 other gentlemen as well who I don't remember the name. It's 5 min walking to Ave. liberidad and 15 min walking to Bario... Room 55 has awesome views. I recommend this hotel, it's neat clean and great location.

We were happy with our stay at this hotel and would recommend it. The reception staff were helpful, the rooms were clean, and it was in a good position, a short walk from Avenida de Liberdade, Bairro Alto, the Miradouro viewpoint, Botanical Gardens, and not too far to walk into the centre/waterfront. Not great for anyone with mobility difficulties though... More

I cannot understand the other good reviews for this hotel?!! You will not be to sleep even with the window being closed!! Just opposite the hotel at the corner is a night club, which produces terrible noise between 0200 -- 0600 from Thursday till Saturday! Even for 60 EUR this is a catastrophy!! Besides this: The carpet _stinks! Do not... More
