This is a very lovely hotel with an excellent central location. Staying here, you are within a few minutes of walking distance to most neighborhoods of interest to tourists or public transportation (tram, bus, metro). The rooms are clean, the bathrooms quite large for a european hotel. My room, facing the back street, had a small balcony with french doors... more

We got the last available room which overlooked the square, and you can see the castle on the hill from the room as well. The hotel staff spoke English quite well and they were knowledgeable and went out of their way to help us. The hotel is in the centermost part of Lisbon. There are restaurants right outside of the... more

Chose this hotel on recommendations from trip advisor. We requested a room overlooking the square - good views but very noisy at night. Nice large room, good bathroom and very clean. The hotel is in an ideal location. Great public transport. Best day trip was to Sintra - train every 10 minutes or so at Rossio station which is a... more

Lovely hotel. Staff very friendly and a great breakfast. We were really pleased that the airport bus stopped right outside the hotel (see http://www.carris.pt/en/horarios/a091_2.pdf ) - the bus was cheap and left the square every 20 minutes. Tucked away beside 2 cafes, this little hotel (with its dated décor) really was a fantastic base for a weekends sightseeing around Lisbon.... more

Great location! Dated, small , clean rooms. Needs updating with new carpets,etc ... has potential to be very charming. Nice and attentive staff. Good hot breakfast .. Guests gather in the common room which is nice . Free use of computer and wifi. Would stay here again for ease of location but think they should update the hotel. more

Nice clean place, very friendly staff, good breakfast. Quaint glass door to en-suite bathroom ! Perfect location, walk to stations, water front, shops. Good cafe next door and smart restaurant next to that. Obviously can be noisy but so what, get up and get out! Much better than many posher places way back towards the airport. Oh yes, the airport... more

The location of this hotel could not be better. Our room was very clean and we had no complaints about the hotel at all. What sets it apart from other hotels is the calibre of the staff who were all extremely helpfull and friendly. I even received a bottle of champagne in my room on my Birthday. A lovely surprise... more

The Metropole is what I'd call a "decent" hotel. Nothing specifically wrong with it, just not outstanding. It's in a very convenient location for sightseeing, but be aware that the square it sits on is surrounded by roadway, which means traffic at all times of day and night and the balcony doors if you're in a square-facing room like we... more

I stayed 3 nights in the Metropole in April 2007. Cost was 75EUR which was a good rate compared to other hotels I researched. I was traveling by myself and arrived in Lisbon without a hotel reservation. I booked the Metropole through the main tourist office. Being a single female, I felt very safe and really enjoyed the common bar... more
