Very clean rooms with comfortable beds. Breakfast cafe area is clean with a good variety of food to start the day. The Metro stop, Casa da Musica, is a 10 minute walk from the hotel but make sure you get directions as the Metro hub does not have very good signage to direct one. This same stop is close to a grocery store, Metrodona.

Good place to stay, very clean. Rooms are a bit tighter than usual so if you have more than 2 people might be a tighter squeeze around the beds and to walk around but otherwise a great place to stay with breakfast included.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was like a sauna. Two members of staff arrived to try to fix the aircon but failed. Then it took two people to try to open the window which was locked with a key. I was promised to either move room or have the aircon fixed by an engineer but the manager and staff simply failed to deliver. As a result I had to sleep with the window open. The road outside was very busy all night including emergency service vehicles passing by caused a disturbed sleep for two days. Very disappointed with Holiday Inn and the staff at this hotel…even though they were pleasant.

Good hotel

I needed a one night stay in Lisbon as I was arriving late. This hotel fitted the bill. Staff were friendly, the breakfast was good and the hotel was very close to the Metro for access to airport,trains and city attractions.

Nice hotel with good access to the Metro

We had a very enjoyable 3 night stay here. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located ojust outside the tourist hotspots of Porto but all are easy accessible by the nearby Metro stations and around a 30 minute walk. Breakfast was average but sufficient. The only slight niggle was the shower pressure was a bit low.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was clean and as promised. For one person it was quite large but it would have been absolutely fine for a couple. The addition of the couch in the room meant there was tons of space that wasn't just bed/desk like in many hotels. The SmartTV was also nice as it meant I was not limited to local TV/Portuguese stations. (A huge bonus as an international guest) The included breakfast was quite nice and the area it was served in was clean. I would have appreciated better/more accurate signs (including allergens/ingredients) for some of the offerings, but this is a small complaint which did not really detract from my visit. The offerings were standard but of a reasonably high quality. This hotel is a little outside the city center but is easily reached with the tram. I was transferring over Casa de Musica (not the station most often recommended by Google/Apple Maps) but found the walk between the hotel and this station much more pleasant. There is also a grocery store near the hotel for any little needs which was a huge added bonus. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend this hotel :)
