Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Our package through Portugal Getaways (Canada) included a 3 night stay at this great home-away from-home! We didn’t face the river but still enjoyed the city view. Check in was easy & informative. The 1 bedroom suite has provided us space to stretch out & kitchen facilities(even a clothes washer) to make our stay convenient. Beautiful wood accents/trim in the rooms. Bath soap & shampoo provided in pump form. Hair dryer dated but works! Even though it’s an older building (1970’s) the architecture is astounding & up to date maintenance & cleaning paramount. Breakfast buffet with lots of choices, affordable bar food, lunch & dinner specials with a Portuguese flair. A beautiful patio around the building overlooks the outdoor pool. In Nov, a very quiet vacation property but still it met all our needs. Friendly helpful staff. Could have stayed longer! Checked out the Aquarium in Lisbon for a fun afternoon. With rain cancelling our road trip, we had an enjoyable last day, lounging in comfort!

Just got back from a 7 night stay from the MS Aparthotel. When driving to the hotel from a distance you can see hotel perched on top of the hill. Check-in process was smooth and got room 507 2 bed 2 bath sea/pool facing view. Apartment had a big balcony which wrapped around the whole apartment with breath taking views of the Abril bridge and Christ statue at night. The rooms themselves were large, spacious but you can see the apartment is a little worn round the edges so could do with updating and modernising….
The Hotel grounds are maintained to a high standard. The pool area is great place to relax and chill with plenty of sun loungers with a swim up bar.
Food both daytime and evening was ok but could be more expansive to cater for young teenagers. Something for the hotel management to look into!
Breakfast was well catered with a great selection of hot and cold items and fresh juices and pastries.
Housekeeping was good and towels and bedding changed when required!
Not much to do in the surrounding area just a couple of restaurants nearby but a cab ride down town Lisbon changes the scenery.
Small things showed me why this hotel didn’t want me to give it an excellent rating e.g. some days there were no pool attendants to take orders for drinks/food. Also no bin to put used towels near the pool area. The hotel can also have a shop on site so guests can buy snacks etc for their room.

lovely place to stay for privacy, outdoors space, pool, fun. It's not in the most walkable area, but my friends with kids are about 15 minutes down the hill and they loved visiting our hotel and swimming in the pools.
Areas for improvement: updating look of the rooms, having the fitness center more accessible (currently they have to unlock it for you), doing something about how loud it is when the neighbor above you moves a chair to sit in it. Restaurant really needed work, efficiency wise and quality of food wise.
Things they do great: multilingual, random DJ by pool moments, lots of space, pool

Had a fab short stay here with friends. Super comfortable 2 bed apartment for 3 people sharing. Kitchen dinning and lounge area, huge wrap around balcony. Plenty of space not to get under each others feet. Clean and comfortable, friendly staff. Great pool and lounging area. Good quality breakfast selection included. Evening meal in the restaurant was ok for a quick fix. Location is a bit outside central Lisbon and we took cabs every day to and from, but they’re cheap and affordable €6-8. Perfect hotel for what we needed.

We had a 2- bedroom river view apartment and used this property as an alternative to an independent/stand-alone apartment, mainly due to the pool area for the kids to have some fun. We had a car and intended to spend most of our time sight seeing in and around Lisbon. It was a great base for that.
Some parts are a little dated, and the rooms are probably on the cusp of needing a re-fit, but it’s not at all as bad as some reviews have made out. Room was clean, comfortable, well serviced and well equipped- apart from not having a clothes airer! That’s surely an easy fix for an apartment with a washing machine.
The pool area is lovely, with a swim-up-bar serving good quality drinks (Havana club in the well made Pina Coladas). It had a very relaxed vibe and we spent more time there than we anticipated 😉.
We made our own breakfasts and some lunches in the very useable apartment kitchen - we didn’t use local restaurants as we headed into Lisbon or Belem most nights. We had 2 lunches at the hotel restaurant- it was very nice and good value.
I would stay here again and recommend people consider it.
Just be aware- if you intend to use the train to Lisbon then there are 2 stations quite close but both a 20-25’ steep walk as the hotel is quite elevated- not great if it’s hot!

Dear upswimbar, It is a pleasure to receive your feedback about your stay with us. We are pleased that you enjoyed the 2-bedroom river view apartment, the cleanliness and comfort of your apartment, and the facilities provided, such as the swim-up bar and the apartment kitchen. It is also rewarding to hear that you found our pool area to be lovely and that the relaxed atmosphere contributed positively to your stay. However, we note your concern regarding some aspects of our apartments that appear dated and the absence of a clothes airer. We are always seeking ways to improve our guest experience and appreciate your honest feedback. Moreover, while we are delighted that the proximity to train stations was advantageous for your travel plans, we understand the challenge of the steep walk in hot weather. We are considering ways to enhance our guests' comfort regarding transportation access. Finally, we are delighted that you had pleasant dining experiences at our restaurant and found it to offer good value. The strategic location of our aparthotel, allowing for convenient sightseeing, is something we are proud to offer our guests. We hope you were able to appreciate the views of the pool, garden, river or city from your apartment, as well as our dedication to ensuring your comfort and relaxation. It would be a pleasure to have you return. Kind regards, Duarte Rodrigues, General Manager

The family, being from the hospitality area and knowing well the excellent infrastructure available in Portugal, had some specific criteria when choosing a hotel. Among them, the importance of a quick and dedicated response was highlighted, something this company managed to accomplish with excellence from the availability consultation to the confirmation of the reservation. During the stay, from check-in to check-out, the service was impeccable, demonstrating the hotel's commitment to quality and guest satisfaction. Congratulations to the team! We will give the best references whenever we are consulted about possible stays in Lisbon, making this a preferred place for all of us. Thank you very much.

This apartment hotel was very conveniently located and has a lovely outdoor pool area. Very nice views from the large balcony. Staff are nice and accommodating. There are a few things that could be/should be improved:
Bathrooms had some black discoloration on the grout WiFi is not secure (no PW needed) and connectivity is poor Not enough towels provided for a 2 bath apartment with 4 people staying. We had to ask for extra. The apartment was a bit worn looking and in need of some renovating

Large rooms with bedroom and extra living/dining room with fully equipped kitchen including washing machine. Large beautiful balcony with a view of the sea - great view due to the location on top of the hill. Not quite modern anymore, but simple and elegant - beautiful high-gloss parquet floor. Bar on the terrace serves good beer and delicious bar food like sandwiches and burgers. The pool is wonderful, well-tempered with a beautiful lawn around it. It is quiet at night, so you can sleep with the window open - but the air conditioning works perfectly. Very friendly and helpful staff at reception!

We came from Lisbon but we didn't want to stay in the center. We found this huge space, with a beautiful view and so many ideal complements to our stay. It is an isolated space, in the middle of the green, but close to commerce and the main roads. The price is, for now, the usual and medially behavioral. The service was fantastic, with details at the reception of the little apartment that left us rented. The breakfast service is superb! We were also surprised by the existence of so much space around, the pools, the fields for sports practice, etc. It is a very pleasant accommodation, for those who like details, to rest with their own, with complete privacy, outside the city of Lisbon and to feel quite stunned.

Great breakfast, lots to choose from and attentive staff. Large rooms, massive balcony, lots of storage in every room, beds very comfy even had a dressing gown and slippers , we’ve never stayed in a part/hotel before I would do this again. Lots of sun loungers around the pool, very clean and peaceful. Lovely little swim up bar. Will come back.
