As mentioned by other reviewers, this guesthouse is located on the top 2 floors of an old residential building but if you're OK with climbing stairs, this is a terrific place to stay. The entry to the building is dark but you quickly climb through and up to the top where you enter a light and clean space. The Guesthouse... More

We spent 3 nights in this great little guesthouse. It's like staying in a typical Portuguese home. There are only four guest rooms on the fourth floor of an old apartment building just beneath the castle. The owner lives next door and is very helpful. Excellent room and facilities - very clean and comfortable. Great breakfast in a quaint dining... More

A truly pleasant experience -- the owner has fixed up a 19th century house to modern standards, with a beautiful set of terraced yards out back, fresh oranges and lemons, and a lovely continental breakfast. We stayed in the bedroom with a kitchen, which proved very pleasant and convenient. It's really right under the castle walls; the view that people... More

Casa Costa do Costelo is a large apartment on the top two floors of a multi-story residential building converted to a guest house or bed & breakfast, located just beneath Lisbon's famous Castelo. It offers excellent views of the city, the Tejo and the Castelo and is within walking distance to the Castelo, the Alfama and the Baixa. As most... More

My wife and I spent three nights here on an extended weekend getaway from New York area. Every aspect of the Casa is well done-(1) the rooms with lots of wood and texture and views that you could not improve upon if you spent $500 a night elsewhere, (2) the breakfast with exotic local cheeses (and meats for those who...

With all the positive comments before, it seems not very meaningful to add on more here... I believe there are many friendly and yet budget hostel in Lisbon. But this is somewhere different and worth the extra if your wallet is not too tight. Joao is a very friendly owner of this small and cozy place. Very accommodating in every... More

We stayed here 2 times 2 nights (in 2 different rooms). It is quite a climb to get there, but it is worth every step! The owner is very friendly, the view is super, the breakfast is great! It makes you feel very much at home in Lisbon!

We spent two weeks at Casa Costa Do Castelo at the start of 2010 and had a wonderful stay. The guesthouse is high on a hill beside the castle, yet still a short walk to the centre (Baixa). You do need to consider that it is a steep walk up to Casa Costa..., followed by four floors worth of stairs.... More

We loved our stay at Casa Costa do Castelo. The hills and steps were tiresome but worthwhile. The rooms had splendid views and were very personal. Joao was helpful (he even carried our heaviest bag up and down the stairs on his shoulder) and kind. The breakfast was the best hotel breakfast I have ever had and the breakfast room... More
