Rooms are small, but modern and clean. Every staff member here was so friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect and allowed us to travel by foot anywhere we wanted to go. It was so lovely having the hotel Lobby as a calm and relaxing space to enjoy. We enjoyed lunch and a glass of wine down there on a few occasions. Staff went above and beyond, even knowing it was my birthday and making my morning a little extra special without me telling them. Would highly recommend!

While I hate leaving negative reviews this seems necessary because of how unresponsive the management here was to our issues. My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our wedding anniversary in Lisbon. While the location is great, the rooms were underwhelming. The room has no A/C or fan and would get pretty warm (in Oct) and when we’d open the windows the noise from the outside kept us up all night. Regardless of whether the window was open though, the noise level was a lot. We bought ear plugs the next day hoping it would help, but no. We lost two days in Lisbon because of how little to no sleep we were getting. We asked about moving to another room on day 2, and while the staff member there was emphatic to our issues, they only had a bunk bed room which wasn’t an equivalent to our king size bed. We booked 5 nights, so ended up going to a different hotel. Hotel management wasn’t emphatic to our experience, didn’t offer us any kind of refund, and kept insisting that they had offered us an alternative (the bunk bed). Would not come here again and frankly would not recommend to anyone.

I stayed here in October with my Mum and Sister for a girls break and we had the best time at Independente Bica. Our room was great - always clean and nicely decorated, with some great complementary items including plenty of water which we could get topped up at any time. The breakfast every morning is also great, and the staff are all really lovely / incredible. A special call out to Marta and Gui who were so helpful throughout our stay, including when our flight was cancelled and we needed another night's stay at the last minute! In terms of location, the hotel is so well-placed right by the Time Out Market and the Bica Furnicular. I will definitely be staying here on my return after such a great experience. Thanks so much to the Independente Bica team!

World-class boutique hotel. The location and staff are fabulous and their breakfast spread is delicious (esepcially the yogurt and granola). I highly recommend staying in the Penthouse suite if you're a group of friends - you'll have a blast! Also this is located right in the heart of town, minutes away from pink street and other attractions.
