7.1

Un lugar perfecto apra alojarse en Lisboa. Recuerda entrenar tus piernas antes de ir, pues tanto para llegar al alojamiento con empinadas cuestas o escalerras, como para subir a alguna de las habitaciones (no cuenta con ascensor), las necesitarás. Muy buena opcion economica con encanto juvenil.

Lavra is a fantastic guest house! we loved our stay there. the staff was super friendly and helpful, giving tips on restaurants etc. The rooms are absolutely beautiful and individually decorated, combination of modern and old fashioned. There's no breakfast but there were cheap cafes in the neighbourhood.

4.2

lavra guest house must cater for some more facilities--even a glass of water is not possible since they have only those low grade plastic disposable glasses. i think they charge too much for a place like this --the room was decent -clean but there was nothing else. location is good but one definitely needs to be told to take a taxi from the airport or else it is difficult to reach as the ascent is too steep! one wants a cup of coffee / tea / cold drink but nothing is available not even for a price. we enjoyed the location as we were in the city centre & that enabled us to watch all the fun & be a part of the local crowd. the guest house would be a great place if they could provide us some facilities like soft drinks / hot drinks or at least keep some provisions like glasses & a kettle in the room for guest to make their own --its a small facility but very important.

The "lift" (small tramway) was under repair in May 09. So quite challenging to make the last hill after a long day ... but overall a very nice, very clean guesthouse. Myriam was extraordinarily friendly with a good sense of humour. We will be back there,for sure! For very early reseravations: Lavra has a penthouse!

enjoyed our stay although the elevator was out of order, which meant a steep walk uphill - only for the fit

8.4

Everything I expected. You have to be good by foot.

Lavra Guest House is a former cloister and therefore an interesting and ancient house, nicely refurbished and with a great view if you get a room with a balcony. The service is friendly and the only thing I was a bit annoyed with was the black colour of the bathroom and the very poor quality of the beds. But in terms of the price and the service as well as the view you get for your money, these things are certainly tolerable.

excellent welcoming and location. nice room. hotel recommended.

It is a pity the room was not decorated in the lobby style. Actually the room we got (as requested on the last floor to have a city view) was tiny and would need some renovation as regards the paint and bathroom equipment. And the view was from the bathroom window.Rather dull room but nice staff.

Medina at the front desk was very helpful

6.6

I liked the Guest House Lavra however I think that style overcame some basic requirements in rooms - such as hooks for towels, bins etc. Also I think the Guest House is still in process of being renovated - public areas very good but rooms I think would vary. Good location, clean but more basic than had imagined. Also check out needs to be improved - had an early flight and the 8am reception promised was running late so we were very tight on time. Otherwise happy to recommend for a one or two night stay in residential area of Lisbon.

Lavra is a gorgeous, funky hotel with the sweetest staff. It's located in a great area and we wished we could have stayed much longer to explore! Fantastic value for money!

Pour ce premier séjour à Lisbonne, où nous somme resté 3 jours, nous avons trouvé cette Guest House très bien située géographiquement. En plein centre de la ville et de tous ces endroits de flanerie. Nous avions une chambre Triple avec pour seul point faible la douche minuscule et peut être un manque de climatisation pour compenser le fournaise de la salle de bain. L'accueil fut très correcte avec un bonne disponibilité à la réception.

7.9

breakfast is realy missing. noise of the other rooms is realy not filtrered. Bathrooms are very small

5.4

Clean rooms but very small bathrooms (not for pregnant women !) Receptionists all right as long as there's no problem : Had no bedside table lamps working, managed to get one eventually replaced, but all this done in a way to make me feel that I was a rather demanding customer to ask for such a "favour" ! The next day I asked the same receptionist for help to find a place to buy stamps and never got it ! I found this all rather unprofessional !

8.3

The bathromm was really small ans the shower was partcicularly exiguous.

7.4

A nice,clean,small but sympathetic, modern-baroque and with a taste of Portuguese room....there is no elevator (i really don't mind about that) but i think the 4th floor rooms are not for disable,old people or stern with big suitcases girls...

9.4

The location was great ...close to transportation, close to stores to buy food, within walking distance of the main downtown plazas.

9.1

Guest House Lavra was very welcoming with friendly staff. The rooms were clean and ours had a good view. Location is good- reasonably close to shops restaurants etc- just a steep walk home!

6.3

The guest house is located quite in the center but on a hill so you should not be physically handicapped. The rooms are small but have a modern style. We had a nice little balcony with a great view! But there are no TV or radio (we didn't miss it, however). Not far from the place is a tiny supermarket and there are some small restaurants where a lot of locals spend there evenings and where you can have local food for a fair price and some good wine.

This guesthouse is clean, modern and centrally located. It is basic - you won't find any shampoo in the bathroom or a TV in the bedroom, but for the price it was an excellent bargain. It is located at the top of a brilliantly authentic, but rather steep road (not for the unfit, especially after a hearty meal and some drinking). They do serve breakfast (not included in the price), however we went out every morning - just a few steps down the road on the right hand side was a good snack bar to have some croissants and tea. When you arrive at the aiport ask the tourist information desk for a map and get the guy to point out the street, and he'll tell you which bus stop to get off at. Get on the aerobus and it's a pretty short, if somewhat steep, walk from the stop. If you've got some heavy suitcases it might be an idea to take a taxi.

9.3

The guest house can be highly recommended - it is situated in "real" Lisbon surroundings on the top of Lavra hill, in a nice old house. By foot or after a nice trip with the Lavra elevador you reach the city centre in 5 min. The staff is very friendly and every guest is welcomed with a glass of the famous Lisbon cherry liqueur .... Lavra guest house is the best place to stay while visiting wonderful Lisbon!

9.1

Very nice place to stay. It's well situated, near metros, but on top of a hill (restaurants are all down the hill, and it's very very hard to climb!) Hopefully there's a tramway, but it closes at 9:00 pm. Excellent breakfast in the "pastelaria" 10 meters down the street: very cheap, and very kind!

9.6

Guest house is very clean, people are nice. It is close to town center (5 min walking)
