Lisbon Dreams

Marquês de Pombal & Around


On a quiet street lined with jacaranda trees, eco-leaning Lisbon Dreams offers excellent value for its 19 bright, modern rooms with high ceilings and excellent mattresses. The green apples are a nice touch, and there are attractive common areas to unwind in. All bathrooms are shared except one, but are spotlessly clean.
