Hotel Olissippo Marquês de Sá - Lisbon

7.9

Breakfast is so crowded due to many tour guests.

9.8

Considering the price the quality of the room was excellent and it included a breakfast, too. Was close to public transportation and the surrounding community was very friendly and helpful.

9.4

This was more of a 4-star hotel according to my wife, who works in conferencing and knows a thing or two about hotel standards. Really very good hotel indeed and breakfast was as good as previous reviewers had stated (bacon and eggs for Brits and Yanks though the sausages weren't great). Only downside was lack of enough fresh fruit. We paid €5 more to stay at Hotel Sana Capitol (though got free upgrade to Sana Lisboa!) and the breakfast was even more amazing - definitely best I've ever had on the Continent!

9.0

dinner buffet no good. everything else excellent!

8.8

Ottima sistemazione, in luogo silenzioso e in posizione strategica rispetto a bus e metro (i trasporti a Lisbona sono eccellenti). L'hotel mantiene cio' che promette e le recensioni su internet si sono rivelate attendibili. La colazione è abbondante ma andrebbe variata nell'arco della settimana in modo da sorprendere chi resta più di 3 giorni. In ogni caso trattasi di sistemazione con un eccellente rapporto qualità/prezzo e senz'altro consigliabile.

Sono andato con un mio amico..sono rimasto molto soddisfatto da questo Hotel... Non è proprio al centro..pero' la metro non è lontana..con una camminata la si raggiunge tranquillamente. Il ritorno lo facevamo con i taxi..molto piu' economici che in Italia. Personale molto educato e cordiale..stanze pulite..ricambio di biancheria continuo..Colazione ottima.. La stanza è molto accessoriata..soprattutto aria condizionata.. C'era la presenza di gruppi di turisti stranieri..dai 40 anni in su... L'hotel è molto silenzioso..la nostra stanza affacciava all'interno e non si sentiva volare una mosca.. Credo che questo hotel sia ideale per le gite in gruppo. So che si poteva trovare qualcosa a meno prezzo al centro..pero' se non si vuole nessun tipo di problema per quanto riguarda la stanza..consiglio vivissimamente questa struttura.

Very charming hotel, spec. well suited for music lovers who attend concerts in the Gulbenkian hall situated just on the other side of the parc within a 7 minutes walk.

9.8

This was a very nice hotel located not far from the Marques de Pombai traffic circle. It was probably a 25 minute walk down to the Rossio area, but there was a metro station right next to the hotel. The hotel was clean, and our room and bathroom were very spacious compared to some European hotels I've seen. The breakfast was included in the price, and it was great: bread, meats, eggs, fruit, yogurt, etc. I would highly recommend this hotel.

9.3

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Friendly staff, and nice room. We found a few nice neighborhood restaurants in the area, as well as a park just across the street. The breakfast was lovely. My only problem was that it was about a ten minute walk to a metro stop from this hotel.

8.9

Property has been renewed recently and our room fulfilled our expectations concerning space, facilities and cleanliness. Hotel is very well located in front of Gulbekian Museum (outstandard garden!) in a quiet and pleasant neighbourhood, two steps from Metro station. Great value for price.

9.6

Viaje con mi madre, por un fin de semana largo. El hotel esta muy bien, es un poco alejado del centro pero esta muy bien comunicado, el barrio es muy bonito, tranquilo y rodeado de restaurantes para cenar. La atención impecable, la habitación y el baño muy amplia y espaciosa. Si volviera a Lisboa volveria a este hotel.

9.0

Very nice hotel in North Lisbon. Handy for metro, Gulbenkian, Edward VII park, and Corte Ingles. Staff pleasant and spoke good English. Airport bus stops nearby.

9.1

Très bon hôtel, une excellente prestation pour le prix. Chambres spacieuses et calmes, petit déjeuner bon et copieux, personnel francophone... Ce sera parfait quand les travaux dans les rues adjacentes seront terminés. On aimerait tout de même plus d'infos sur les transports en commun disponibles à proximité de l'hôtel.

8.1

The hotel is excellent value for money, and whilst not in the centre there is a metro station nearby. Rooms are small but ok, and are clean. Personnel is efficient. Breakfast is ok, albeit after having read reviews I expected more.

9.6

very good hotel. the locaton is very good,very quiet at night .The room was a very good size and the price,65 euros was great.The breakfast was very good,the best i've ever had in any european hotel

8.7

A very nice hotel, though located just a little bit off downtown lisbon. Great personalized service and - apart from the coffee - a satisfactory breakfast. Walls are not exactly soundproof, so if one has noisy neighbors there might be a problem. Otherwise, highly recommended!

10

Clean, modern, quiet, efficient hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful. There is a frequent metro service to the city centre. The Airport Shuttle stops near the metro station. Great breakfasts but average dinners. I would certainly return.

8.8

Very good hotel concerning price/quality. Our welcoming recepcionist was fantastic (Joao), He helped Us a lot. Breakfast was a bit boring with the same food every morning (we stayed a week there). The hotel has good communication, Gulbenkian Museum and El Corte Ingles are nearby.

7.7

Reception staff not updated on opening hours of nearby El Corte Ingles - I was told it was closed on Sunday, in fact it was open. Also, restaurant recommended to me was closed. Taxi driver that reception organised had no idea where the restaurant of my choice was - it was one from a flyer in the foyer, so reception staff could have ensured that my taxi driver knew where it was. He almost dropped me in a quiet street with nothing but houses and closed and barred shops! Not a good idea for a lady on her own in the evening!

7.1

Pros: gd location near to metro & a supermarket; good breakfast spread. Cons: in-room wireless connexion was very poor; no desk in room; no iron & ironing board. More seriously, it was the *worst* service I've ever had at a hotel front desk! (And I've stayed in hotels of all classes on three continents.) As I arrived early before the official checkin time I wanted to leave my luggage with the front desk so I could get breakfast nearby and come back later. The counter guy [Nuno Baptista], who was curt to the point of rudeness, got a porter to tag my luggage and bring it to the back. He assumed that speaking to the porter in Portuguese would mean I wouldn't understand as he proceeded to laugh at and disparage me in my presence!! Even if one does not expect friendly service, certainly the least one expects is basic courtesy, which was utterly lacking. This experience cast a pall on my stay there, and I'll certainly never stay there again.

6.8

the worst thing,is cellophane still over the mattress...

10

Everything was excellent. The room was really nice. The lobby was modern and pretty. The front desk people were friendly and helpful. The bar was good and bartender very gracious. The breakfast buffet was wonderful. The location was close to the metro. I would stay there again! I traveled with my daughter.

9.5

- good hotel, near metro, park, museum, big dept. store. - good service, good breakfast. - clean rooms, discreet chamber maids. - everything went as expected. - recommended!

9.1

Camera spaziosa dotata di molti confort tra cui anche il wi-fi (solo la radio non funzionava).Letto comodo, pulizia ottima così come pure efficiente era l'impianto di aria condizionata. Ottima la posizione dell'hotel, vicino c'è un centro commerciale per ogni evenienza e i mezzi a breve distanza (bus e metro) consentono di arrivare facilmente ovunque. Con 7.40 si torna in aeroporto in taxi.

9.1

Our stay at the Marques de Sa was fantastic. The staff (especially Ana) was VERY helpful and knowledgeable. Hotel was close to Metro and in a very nice area close to several restaurants and shopping areas. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Price very reasonable as well!

9.6

The staff was very friendly, especailly Joa. He was very knowledgeable with Lisbon and its surrounding towns. He is very approachable and is always willing to lend a helping hand.

7.5

Good adress: Quiet, good service, but a bit isolated (far from restaurants)

8.5

Da consigliare a chiunque voglia visitare Lisbona. Non sta al centro, ma la metro è a 200 mt e bastano 3 fermate per essere nella zona storica/centrale. Nelle vicinanze ci sono bar/ristorante e anche un centro commerciale con tanto di cinema. Il personale parla anche un po' di italiano ed è preparato e accogliente. Veramente da consigliare

8.8

Davvero un buon hotel, con un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. E questo è il commento anche delle due coppie che erano con noi a Lisbona. Giorgio & MG

7.7

A little out of town, but easy to catch the metro into the centre. Surrounding area interesting and clean, mainly large shops and residential. Don't bring a large car here, the parking is good under the hotel, but getting in and out is not easy. It took me an hour to check in after a long day; a large group had arrived just as we pulled up, and instead of having someone else help me at the desk we were forced to wait.

7.0

This hotel is a good value, but you must be willing to walk to metro. Directions to the station were poor; so do not leave hotel without good directions. Lobby internet connection VERY expensive. Breakfast was DELICIOUS and service was EXCELLENT.

7.8

Staff friendly and multilingual

6.3

We had a room on the mainstreet and it brought us a lot of intervals during the night. After four nights we were very tired by the lack of good sleeping. The breakfast was every morning the same and we missed some fresh orange juice and real coffee. Once I only wanted to check my emailmessages and the provider was so slow that it tooks a lot of time before the check was possible. Therefore I had to pay for 7 minutes, while effective I used 1 minute. For the rest a good hotel with a pleasant staff .

8.9

At walking distance from the Gulbekian museum. Very close to the main metro line taking you to the city centre. Excellent price/quality. Rated 3* but deserves 4* level.

10

Hotel was very close to the Gulbankian Museum and to the Metro. We didn't want to drive so left the car in the parking garage which was a challenge to get into but safe. Ate in the dining room the first night and found the 14 Euro meal to be good value with excellent service. Helpful and friendly reception. Great stay.

9.3

Modern hotel with large, clean room and bathroom; excellent buffet breakfast; walking distance to shopping complex where there's the metro station; very helpful and friendly reception staff who speak good English; would recommend this hotel.

9.9

Modern hotel, very clean, excellent breakfast and nice staff. I really reccommend it.

7.7

Employees extremely competent & civilized. Issue with noise was that room was facing a construction site with driling going on continually. Not relaxing

8.6

A nice hotel with good service and friendly staff. Close to El Corte Ingles and San Sebastiao metro station. Seemed to be popular with mature travelers. Vile coffee at otherwise good breakfast. Definitely worth a stay.

9.9

The hotel is situated in the modern part of Lisbon and well connected to the ariport and to the city centre. The rooms are wonderful, spacious and confortable. Everything is clean organized to offer you the best. We advise Olissippo Marquês de Sá to all travellers who want a smart and pleasant sty in Libson without spending a fortune.

9.1

Not far away from the Hotel (some 500 m) you can find a shopping gallery with supermarket and a lot of shops reaching from electronics to beauty shops. In front of the shopping gallery there is a metro station (tube, underground). At some 200 to 300 m from the hotel you can find the Museum Calouste Gulbenkian. If you want to go to the airport by taxi you will arrive after some 30 minutes and you will pay more or less 8 euros (august 2007).

7.0

In general services provided were according the offert. The only problem was the coffe quality at breakfast... was really bad.

9.1

very good quality Hotel. Competitive prices.

6.7

We are a family of three persons and just stayed for two nights for a sightseeing trip in Lissabon. And for that reason, the hotel was good because it was easy to reach by the public transport system. At first they wanted to charge more for the extra bed, but than they accepted the documents from venere.com.

9.5

El Hotel Olissipo es excelente, por la amabilidad de sus empleados, el confort del hotel, las habitaciones son amplias y bonitas, desayuno muy bien y relación calidad precio muy alta. Lo recomiendo positivamente.

8.7

Zona tranquila, habitacion espaciosa y desayuno excelente.

8.2

Good Hotel at the price. Close to Metro and big supermarked open long hours. Would have been nice with city-transportinformations at the hotel.

8.8

Great hotel for the price except the AC wasn't working very well...

8.4

Clean and quiet place to stay. But I would personally prefer a place closer to downtown!

8.0

L'anno scorso a Madrid è stata la prima volta che ho prenotato con Venere. A dicembre ho prenotato a New York e adesso a Lisbona. Confermo l'ottimo giudizio su Venere ed anche gli altri amici sono rimasti molto soddisfatti. L'hotel Olissippo Marques de Sa è un ottimo albergo della sua categoria, comodissimo con il Metro ed il personale è molto gentile.

8.6

This is a good hotel, well located close to two metro stops (San Sebastiao and Saldanha). The staff is extremely helpful and can help you in navigate in Lisbon in french and english. Only thing is internet access should be free, instead of 10 euros/hour.

7.4

the breakfast is terrible!

8.9

This is a very good hotel, definitely one of the best value for money deals we had in Lisbon (55€/night, double room). The rooms are clean and spacious (although ours did not have a pretty view). The hotel is located in a quiet area, very close to San Sebastiao metro station (10 minutes from the city centre). The staff was very nice and helpful.

6.8

is very difficult to sleep because It's like to stay all in the same room!!! Excellent breakfast...

8.7

Hotel fantastico, pulito, camere spaziose e colazione perfetta. Vicinissimo a due linee della metropolitana, davvero davvero consigliato.

8.9

Best hotel I've ever stayed in at the Venere price. Room was spacious with a decent sized TV and adequate storage space. Bathroom had both bath and shower, with decent towels and other acoutrements. The breakfast was excellent, with lots of cold meats and cheese, fruits, yoghurts, pastries and scrambled eggs with local sausages. Machine coffee, but not a bad capuchino.

9.0

Over all our stay was good, however,improvement to the breakfast, ie good orange juice, pots for tea would have made a lot of difference.

6.5

Buon hotel,fermata della metropolitana a 5 minuti a piedi,camere poco silenziose anche a causa dei numerosi gruppi organizzati,buona colazione.Corrisponde alla descrizione.

9.1

For the 52 euros we paid for a double room, this is a superb hotel. Our room, understandably, was one of the two close to the elevator, but the hum of the airconditioning made this noise barely noticeable. Breakfast is good, the rooms are clean and large. Do be careful NOT to take any of the extras, like Wi-Fi for 10 euros for half an hour, as these are really overpriced. The neighborhood is very pleasant, just a few blocks from buses and subway.

8.4

great hotel..near to the metro station

7.6

Big & quiet room with helpful staff, a big department store nearby. Close to the metro but unable find a decent restaurant for dinner around the hotel.

9.0

It is a very good hotel in its category and I can recommend it to anyone. The only inconvenience was the presence of some italian groups, which revealed to be rather noisy and a little annoying. Being italian myself, this made me a bit embarrassed.

9.0

Very good hotel; cleaned and quiet room with all the comforts. Very good breakfast. Good relationship between quality and price. I would recommend it!

9.1

Albergo bello, nuovo, accogliente e pulitissimo in posizione favorevole rispetto al centro. Ci torneremmo e lo raccomandiamo.

9.4

Un bellissimo albergo, anche se nn centrale che comunque si raggiunge facilmente. Davvero ottimo il rapporto qualità/prezzo.

6.9

Nella stanza si sentono rumori degli altre camere. Ottima la colazione

4.7

Soundproofing is really poor, I couldn't sleep past 8 AM on a sunday

9.1

Excellent Hotel, for the price. The heating in the room was too high (25 degrees) and it was impossible to stop. (we were there in december).

9.1

The hotel is nice and clean, in a quiet area. However, the metro station is 7 - 10 min. walk from the hotel and by using a metro yoiu can reach almost every point in Lisbon. Towels were changed and the bathroom and the room cleaned every day. The staff is polite. We had a nice time there.

9.4

Nice people, nice Hotel at very good price. Close to pubblic transports to reach the city center. Much better quality price ratio compare to a famos French Hotel chain.

8.5

Albergo con ottimo rapporto qualita'/prezzo e distante 5 min a piedi dalla Metro Sao Sebastiao. Breakfast di tipo continentale decisamente abbondante. Un po' freddi l'accoglienza e il rapporto con il cliente. Stanze abbastanza grandi e ben fornite di attrezzature/servizi.

9.7

L'hôtel coorespond à la description donnée sur le Web. Le personnel est compétent et très serviable. Le confort de la chambre est parfait. En prime, un excellent petit déjeuner, très copieux. L'hôtel est bien situé entre l'aéroperort et le centre de Lisbonne, le métro est à 5 minutes. A recommander pour ce prix.
