Me and my wife booked several rooms for some friends coming to our wedding, the pictures look good on booking and we also decided to see it by ourselves. Everything seemed ok, until we read the trip advisor comments... So we decided to cancel it, supposedly there wasn't any cancellations fee, but the hotel charged anyway! After a few emails... More

The hotel is located close to the town centre, walking distance to restauradores is about 15 minutes. The hotel is quite old fashioned and the hall is little and absolutely not comfortable. They have free internet wifi in all the common area. We had a four bed room and it was really small and not very clean. Many problems with... More

POSITIVE: cheap, central location NEGATIVE: blacklisted by local organization; we were robbed!!! For a business trip to Lisbon, we had booked two nights at Hotel Excelsior. During our first night at the hotel, several men climbed the fire stairs, removed our window (locked and covered by a curtain) from its frame, then entered our room and stole everything inside (clothes,...

Situated one minute's walk away from Marques de Pombal metro and bus stops, the hotel in an ideal position. The room we stayed in was larger than we expected, with basic amenties provided (television, toiletries, towels etc.) It was clean and serviced daily. The room also had a fridge, although we had no use of it. Breakfast is of the... More

As the headline says - this hotel is pretty basic. The rooms and bathrooms are clean but nothing fancy. Breakfast is a little above average, I think - but it gets a little boring after a week. The staff is nice and helpful. I would come back for a work-related stay but not for a leisure-related one. They have air-con... More

We stayed at the Hotel Excelsior Lisbon in March 2007. Overall it was a typical European hotel. It's located in an ideal location: close to Avinda Liberdad, Pombal Square, Rossio Square, and Edward vii gardens. The rooms varied from hall way to hall way- some were big, while others were small. As well the elevator is very small, which ment... More

Hotel Excelsior did what anyone would want a hotel to do - provided clean, decently sized rooms, with friendly/helpful staff. I recently spent the weekend there with 4 other friends and we had a triple and a double. The rooms were cleaned everyday and we were given clean towels. The staff helped alot with finding buses and metros (the Marques... More

Excelsior is an average hotel with a friendly staff. My husband and I have stayed there two times (1998 and 2000). The rooms are common, but good. The bathroom perhaps too narrow. The bath is not so big, but there is a shower. First time we stayed in the hotel we got a room just beside the elevator. It was... More
