Hotel Príncipe Lisboa - Lisbon

Es recomendable por el precio y por la amabilidad del personal. En recepción hablan español. El parking tiene un buen precio 6 euros noche. La calle del hotel está con unas obras que duraran unas semanas o meses porque se trata de las que se están haciendo para alargar una línea del metro.

The hotel was in a nice location. It is located closely to public transport and a very nice shopping mall. The staff was friendly and informative. The neighborhood felt safe. You had to pay to use the computer with internet access which I think should be free of charge.

Went for a concert of my favourite rock band. Had to antecipate check-in twice and people there were very cooperative. The same with calling me taxis and even providing a snack because I didn´t have time to have lunch. The room was very spacious, although the scenery you could see from the window was'nt great... But the price was very attractive!

We had a nice and comfortable room with balcony. Hardly any noise from surrounding rooms (occupied)- we felt very private. All floors are equipped with surveilance cameras which are monitored at reception. Continental breakfast buffet was good - several sorts of rolls, cakes, cereals, yoghurt, fruits(canned).

We arrived very early at the Hotel and were told booking in would only be possible after 12 noon. We were allowed to leave our luggage in the foyer and go sight seeing. because we were exhausted from the trip we opted to sit in the lounge. After sitting and staring at reception for over 2 hours and with no effort from reception we eventually asked them at 12.30pm if our room was ready. Had we not go up and asked them we would still of been sitting their today. very dissappointing. On a good note we would like to commend Nelson and Nonnie for excellent service and reception pity they were not on duty on our arrival. the rest have got a lot to learn.

We booked 1 room for 2 adults and 2 adult children. Upon arrival, the room was already set up with 2 twins and 2 smaller cots and there was still plenty of room for lots of luggage and walking room. One elevator was out of service and the remaining one was extremely small. They have an underground pay parking area but I found a space for our car on the median directly in front of the hotel for free. Overall we were very pleased with the hotel and booked one addional night preceding out departure from Lisbon. The staff were great, the metro is near by, and it is not far from the airport. There are several reasonably priced restaurants very close by. The Angolan soccer team was there during our stay so apparantly the hotel can accommodate large groops as well.

The Principe Lisboa exceeded my expectations from the point of view of quality and price. A good budget hotel, very clean although breakfast a little disappointing with limited choice and the same every day. Staff very happy to assist.

Our bedsheets havent been changed during our 4-night stay. There was no fridge in the room. We could hardly find any restaurants nearby and the staff couldnt give us any suggestions.

The room was rather small but clean and comfortable. The hotel is situated near the Metro. But the street is noisy, especially because of the building of a new metro line.

The relationship between price/quality was quite well in my case of a special offer, e.g. 65 Euro per douple room. The normal price in my opinion is too high. The service is very good, the rooms clean, the standart at a normal level. At the time (July 2007) the construction of the metro makes more or less noise (depend on the room). The breakfast is the same all the days - not so nice for a longer stay. There are no eggs, but the other things are very good. I would choose the same hotel for my next stay, but only if I will get again such a special offer and I'm there for working, e.g. don't want to stay the whole day in the room.

The staff was very helpful with directions, recommendations, etc. The continential breakfast in the mornings was more than sufficient. The location is mediocre and very quiet at night and not many options for restaurants late in the evening. There are some decent department stores for shopping. The hotel is also located next to a great museum (Calouste) and near the metro which gets you to the Baxia-Chiado stop in 5-10 minutes. However, it is not across the street from the bus map as the website had indicated and is actually quite confusing to find. It is still a quick bus ride or cab ride from the airport. For the price, this is a great deal and worth the out-of-the-way location due to the access to public transportation.

The breakfast was quite good and the installations look ok. Everything was really good except for the seriousness of the employees. However, I would definetely repeat hotel if returning to the city.

It's a very good hotel because it has an excellent relationship between price/quality. It's very near Sao Sebastiao Metro Station and Corte Ingles Store, it has a very good location. It's not far from Sandanha metro station. My stay in this hotel was very good.

According to this site all rooms are connected to internet. But it is a total lie. Internet is not be connected in a room. One has to go down to a lobby and there is one chair and desk. Only one man in a hotel can use internet. Unbelievable!!! Venere.com!!! Make sure that advertisements of this hotel is true or not before making money!!

No complaints really, maybe the receptionist was on the cold side and so a bit unwelcoming. Turned out breakfast was included in the price, although this wasn't clear before it didn't appear on the bill. Low mark for surroundings as there were roadworks/building works at the time.

Good hotel, nice staff, rooms and bar. Slightly outside but well connected by bus no.742 (i think!) Venere needs to have better directions to the accomodation as is very hard when arriving by train/ plane and we needed to get a taxi.

- Dificil localización (puede ser por que había obras en la calle) - Falta de fruta fresca en el desayuno, pero aún así muy completo y abundante - Pocos canales de Tv + En general el hotel estupendo. Relación calidad/excelente. Habitaciones limpias, comodas y amplias. Trato excelente. Con parking propio (6 euros/día) y aire acondicionado (que se agradece) + Sin duda volvería alojarme allí.

Great service at our arrival, very helpful and proper staff... Close to to the metro and buses. 15 min. to the centre of the city by metro. It's possible to access internet in the lobby. You must pay for 1 hour - 5 euro - at the time of our stay. Allthough i think i saw a WiFi sign at the front desk. The included continental buffet was fair. Close to the hotel there is an excellent supermarket in the bottom of a shopping centre (Corte Ingles) All put together, we had a very nice stay - 2 nights - and will definitely recommend it.

L'albergo non é centralissimo, ma la metro é a 200 metri di distanza, ai magazzini Corte Inglés. E da lì si arriva nel cuore di Lisbona, dove passano tutti i mezzi di superficie, compresi i tram che portano al quartiere antico.Conviene il biglietto giornaliero per tutti i mezzi. C'é il garage-posto auto, costa 6 euro al giorno, vale la pena. Buffet continentale, normale. Penso costi così poco perché davanti all'hotel stanno costruendo una nuova fermata della metro, ma di notte in realtà é tranquillissimo, non c'é traffico e i lavori sono fermi. El hotel no es centralisimo, pero hay la parada del metro cercana a el Corte Inglés unos 200 metros.Muy comoda para alcanzar el centro de Lisboa y todos otros tipos de medios publicos.Creo convenga la tarjeta de un dia para todos los medios, de otras formas el billete costa 1,20 euros cada viaje.Hay el parking dentro del hotel, costa 6 euros cada noche, merece la pena. Buffet continental normal. Estan construiendo una parada del metro delante del hotel, pienso sea el motivo de lo que sea asì barato. Pero por la noche no trabajan, es un lugar tranquilisimo.
