It is a very nice place to stay in Lisbon. Well decorated, confortable rooms and beds, well equiped bathroom, a simple nice bar and lounge. I didn't have the opportunity to try the swimming pool but it seemed pretty good. The breakfast is very complete but the place is a bit noisy and crowded. I've stayed in other hotels with... More

Was there only for one night and cannot appreciate fully the hotel. The room was rather basic and impersonal with a view ... on the bridge and traffic, not really memorable. The breakfast is quite basic. The hotel is new and with an attempt to be modern and cool only partially met. The location is far from city centre but... More

I was attending a conference at the Congress Centre, 5 minutes walk away, but the convenience still doesn't make up for the service and location of this hotel. It's a considerable way outside the centre of Lisbon, and riverside restaurants opposite can only be accessed by walking a good 10 minutes down the road to a bridge, then all the... More

I really enjoyed the service and the breakfast, a good 3* for the rest. Very clean. It's close to a nice night-Life area, but far from the center. I had a car, but I didn't see any metro station close by.

What isn't advertised is the fact the hotel is right next to the Ponte 25 de Abril with car lanes and train tracks. On ground level is another train track and it's in the flight path to the airport. In our room with the window opened a bit I measured 103dB. The window was open because the airco had two... More

I spent two nights here while attending a meeting at the university. The location is good, right on the river with great views of the 25th April Bridge and within walking distance along the river bank to the Tower of Belem and the Monastery of Jeronimo. There are costumes from operas in the lobby and a decidedly opera theme to... More

Nice and clean rooms. Close to the river but far from the center. Very close to Belem and Jeronimos. Quick tram to the center. Good breakfast. A little noisy from the train in the bridge. Very close to the Tejo river with very nice views and a very nice place to walk.

Stayed here for 4 nights with friends. The hotel itself is clean, room was fairly sized and tidied every day, they have changed the towels etc. Breakfast choice extensive. The bar has a good choice of drinks but seemed like they water down everything, at least all depended on the bartender. Some drinks were strong, some had barely any alcohol.... More

Hotel is very very good - I stayed in a mini suite, with lots of space, nice bathroom, fantastic beds. I had amazing view over the Tejo river, overwelming wakeup. The noise of train and cars on the bridge did not affect me, but I believe to some people could cause some problems... Breakfast could be better - I did... More
