Radisson Blu Lisboa

One step below an American Motel 6. Paper thin walls, old dingy wallpaper, floor needs refinishing, plugs do not work. I could go on. But as a hotel chain Radisson is definitely not in the top 20.

Nice hotel in Lisbon, Portugal conveniently located near the bus stop to take you to various parts of the city. Very nice hotel staff and spoke excellent English. Breakfast is excellent. Room and bed comfortable.

I have to admit upfront: I did not pay for this room. But I did use reward points to book our stay, so I just didn’t pay in traditional means. This hotel is north of the heart of Old Town & Central Lisbon, but is just minutes from the airport. They offered a free shuttle to the airport and considering we had an early departure planned, that was one of key needs.
We arrived way before typical check in time since we had taken the train overnight from Madrid, but they were able to accommodate us and let us in our room. The room was spacious with a seating area and desk with the ability to open the window to let the breeze in. The bathroom was quite spacious and had the standard bidet that we don’t see so much of in the states. The shower had a nice glass panel instead of the traditional curtain, but it was quite shallow as it was hard not to get water on the floor.
Something I had not encountered previously, but liked once I got used to it, was you used your room key to turn the lights on in the room. It was quite comical trying to figure that one out, but we eventually did. And I liked the wood floors as opposed to the usual carpet. Somehow, it made the room feel cleaner.
All the staff we encountered were quite pleasant and willing to help us with anything we needed. While I don’t know if it would be my first choice, this hotel would definitely be in the top three for consideration if we ever make it back to Portugal.

Dos melhores hotéis onde já tive a oportunidade de passar a noite! Gosto de hóteis como o Radisson, com uma recepção super eficiente, o chão silencioso, com quartos grandes, a decoração em tons sóbrios e linhas direitas. Com secretária onde eu posso pousar as minhas tralhas de trabalho e ainda uma mesa para pequeno-​almoço, sim sou daquelas que sempre que pode prefere tomar o pequeno-​almoço no quarto e assim poder dormir mais um bocadinho. Sim, é um hotel um bocadinho caro, mas vale tããão a pena!

Há anos que conheço este hotel, inicialmente por estar perto do Estádio de Alvalade e a enchente ser grande, e depois em trabalho. É um hotel dedicado mais ao público estrangeiro/​internacional, e não é costume existir muita afluência nacional.
O hotel tem uma decoração que não o permite diferenciar-​se de forma evidente em relação aos restantes hotéis da cidade de Lisboa.
O atendimento é bom, mas às vezes fora de tempo.
