100+ year old hotel that they have tried to preserve close to it’s original character. Obviously it wont have modern features and that’s fine with me. I only gave this three stars not because of the age but because of the hardness of the bed and issues with the cooling/fan. Cooling issues were resolved quickly (thank you!). Bed hardness was not (until I could get back to my chiropractor). The breakfast was very nice (European), but it was the same every day. Some variety would be nice. Staff were mostly friendly and accommodating.

Great service friendly staff and a great location for a nights stay. Charming art deco hotel, a little tired but very original. I would stay again. Internet seemed to only work in the lobby.

First of all I knew from previous reviews the hotel was showing its age but my view was it had alot of charisma and charm. It also checked all the boxes for me on being convienently located, clean, quiet, and comfortable. Everything in my room functioned fine and my bed was comfortable. The breakfast provided was a wonderful way to start the day. I would not hesitate to stay again.

Great location but hotel is run down and could do with updating. No coffee making facilities in the rooms and shower temperature is hit and miss. When we arrived staff were very rude and spoke to us like something she had just stood on.

A grand old dame of a honey era, if those walls could talk. Must have been something in its time. If you are looking for all the things a modern hotel offers you might want to pass. We really enjoyed the historical features of this art deco property. The staff were simply amazing, so friendly and accommodating. We would stay there again.

I was very pleased to stay in this historic art deco architecture hotel built in 1924. The original yet well kept finishes were part of the enjoyment. The hotel shows its age, but that age gives the Astoria its warm character

I had read reviews that this hotel was tired, but it is really tired. Carpets in the bedroom could have been much cleaner. It has the bones to be a grand dam, but it just isn’t. Sad to say, I would not return . People are nice and I feel for them and their jobs, but the owners are not reinvesting.

This hotel is historic and charming. The staff are professional and friendly as well as helpful. The rooms are comfortable, although they are building a Metro extension right out front, so eventually it'll be noisy!

It’s a nostalgic hotel with a lot of antique furniture set in a mood of 1930s. Location is super convenient. We have the river view which is so beautiful. Thr room is spacious and with a big balcony. Staff is friendly and super efficient. They provide a lot of useful tourist information and dining options. Breakfast is sumptuous and delicious too!

Nice hotel, a bit run down. Breakfast ok. Internet did not work well at all - this is what really disappointed me. I had to work and was dependant on the network - i had to go to a cafe instead. Really disappointing. Really good location and easy to find parking across the bridge.

The hotel needs serious updating, painting, carpet replacement. The furniture had seen better days..... However, the charm was visible, the staff was excellent, and very helpful, and the room was very clean. Beds were comfortable and the linens were nice. The hotel is in an excellent location, and we had a view of the river from our room. The breakfast was nice, with eggs, meats, fruit, yogurt, pastries, and coffee and juices. No wifi in the rooms, only in the lobby.

Tired interior still full of character. Would definitely stay again. Breakfast was excellent. Parking requires a little walking, but there is a very easy loading area by front door. Great great location by main walking area. Plenty of restaurants and small supermarket within a block.

I'm sure this hotel was very nice back in the day but it past it's prime. This hotel needs a lot of work to bring it back to a passable standard. The staff were nice and the breakfast was good. The location was wonderful. The room was very dated from the actual key to open the door to the worn out carpeting. The bed was not comfortable and there were only 2 pillows. Would not recommend.

We cannot recommend Hotel Astoria, due to the front desk staff and management. We arrived at around 2:00 on a very hot afternoon. The only thing cool in the lobby was the attitude of the desk clerk, who without friendliness denied us an option of early check-in (which was at 3:00 - other hotels have allowed it). We went back into the heat and returned at 3:00. The same clerk gave us our key without welcome. The room was hot, and the air conditioning didn't work. When we spoke with the desk clerk, she without apology or concern told us the a/c had broken the day before, and wouldn't be fixed until at least the following day. In other words, she knew when sending us to our room that it had no a/c, but hadn't bothered to tell us. We requested another room, and she told us with indifference that there were no other rooms. We asked to speak to the manager, who was as uncaring and unhelpful as the clerk, repeating more than once without apology that the hotel was fully booked. When I kept insisting that hotels almost always have something in reserve, she finally grudgingly admitted that they did have one single room available with working a/c. Indeed they did, and we took it. The staff's utter lack of kindness, helpfulness, and concern was the worst we've experienced in decades of travel. All our other Portugal lodgings had lovely staff whose kindness and help enriched our stays. The Astoria, a sweet, shabby old beauty of a hotel, deserves better staff and so do her customers.

No internet service even in the lobby. There’s a sealed door next to my bed, on the other side is the bathroom of the room next door; one hears all businesses that go on in there. Breakfast was poor; ham tasted rancid; fruits on display all rotted; no electric kettle in the room, nor are they available in the lobby; shampoos and shower gel came in small plastic bags that need scissors or teeth to rip open; lift was not working the two days we were there; the front desk does not command good enough English.
