Check in was easy. Staff went over and above. After I came back to hotel from the Fatima procession I was in extreme pain in my back and the elevator was being cleaned and we were told we needed to use the stairs. I explained I was in pain and the front desk told me I could use the service elevator - my room was on the 4th floor. We also asked for ice in the morning to put in my freezer bag and they gave me twice the amount I needed. Definitely will recommend this hotel.

Excellent small hotel with a very convenient location to visit walking the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima. Staff is outstanding and friendly. Very good breakfast included. Just across the street from the main buses terminal from Lisbon. Convenient. Do not ride by train as the station is about 20 miles aways from the city and a cab costs (one way) about the same as riding by bus. Both (train and bus) take 90 minutes between Lisbon and Fatima.

Superb hotel
Superb hotel situated in a great location. On arrival we were given a warm and friendly greeting by the receptionist. 1st impression was excellent service and if this is an indication of what this hotel has to offer then we were not disappointed. Fabulous spacious room and the sanitised ensuite bathroom left nothing undone. Cleanliness was exceptional. Very comfortable bed. Air conditioning small fridge with water and sanitised drinking glasses. Fresh towels daily. Great food too....buffet breakfast was super....tasty and delicious....their scrambled eggs were divine....terrific variety of edibles to choose from with a friendly and efficient staff to help you with anything.If you are thinking about a trip to Fàtima then this Hotel is a must. Go see for yourselves....I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. We have been to Fatima many times but this is one we shall book for future trips. 10 out of 10 for us.

The only drawback, and it didn’t affect me at this time of year - Christmas - was a lack of balconies. But other than that, the staff, all of them, went out of their way to facilitate me, e.g. I’m on a ketogenic diet, they were happy to offer substitutions in my meals, within reason, also happy to print out my flight confirmation, etc, for me. Nothing was any trouble for them. A happy, warm team.

Wonderful hotel
I have stayed in many hotels over the years and can tell that the staff at Sao Jose in Fatima is the BEST I've ever seen - welcoming, warm and always helpful. The hotel is very clean and conveniently located close to Basilica, bus station and supermarket. Breakfast was wonderful - with warm eggs, bread, chees, meats, fresh fruit, etc. Will be back again!

We were here for 2 nights and Hotel Sao Jose and exceeded our expectations. The hotel is located 2 minutes from bus station. The check in was easy and the staff at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. The lobby and seating/bar area were spotless and very welcoming, Our room was very clean and bed was confortable. Everytime we travel I am always worried about bathroom cleanliness but not with this Hotel, I was very impressed with how well kept this was. The breakfast buffet was very well put together with something for everyone. The Sanctuary of Fatima is very close to the Hotel and make things even easier for us. Overall I will give 10/10

Liked: The staff were friendly, professional and still met me on a personal level with my inquiries. Angelo and Paulo were exceptional - and I appreciate all the little things as well as big things they juggle in their positions there. Breakfast was very good; especially the scrambled eggs and variety of fruit in the winter. The showers were great, especially being in other hotels in Portugal with limited heat and or pressure. Didn't like: The staff have to juggle various roles from bar, gift shop, serving, desk, etc... so waiting to check out, buy something at the shop, being served in the bar area was a little annoying, but understandable.
