Bottom Line
One of the best value hotels in Lisbon, the three-pearl Hotel Dom Afonso Henriques has an immediate area that's low-key and residential, but the airport and major tourist destinations can be reached within 30 minutes by public transportation. All rooms are modern and clean and include unfurnished balconies. Overall, Hotel DAH is a convenient option for travelers on a budget who don’t mind long walks or short subway rides to city sights.

From the gardens, the view of Fonte Luminosa is impressive. The city’s historic center, featuring sights like the Baixa, Chiado Square, and Sao Jorge Castle, is 15 to 20 minutes away by metro. Lisbon Portela Airport is less than 10 minutes north by car, or 30 minutes by train.
Rooms
Simple and modern with unfurnished balconies
Rooms here are simple and contemporary with attractive wooden desks and wardrobes as well as crisp bed linens. There’s not much in the way of decor besides hooded ceiling lights, mirrors, and satellite TVs mounted on walls. All rooms have unfurnished private balconies, and those on the higher floors have lovely views of the city. Bathrooms are narrow but modern with large dark tiles on the floor and off white square tiles on walls and in showers. Double rooms have standing showers with clear glass doors while Triple and Quadruple rooms have shower/tub combos. Sinks are relatively small with little counter space and, in spite of looking clean overall, mold has been sighted between tile panels. Free Wi-Fi access and safes are also available in every room.
Features
Breakfast buffet, free Wi-Fi, and paid private parking
Breakfast is included in the price of most room packages and includes freshly made Portuguese cakes, fresh fruit, and yogurt.
