Whether resting in your room or socializing in one of the common areas, you'll find the balance perfect. All 82 rooms have just been completely renovated and elegantly furnished in a classic style.

Friendliest Hotel Ever! Also, Beautiful, Clean and Comfortable

Reviewed By James C

We stayed at the Avenida Palace earlier this week and will return next week as well. I have stayed in many hotels, but this hotel absolutely has the friendliest staff of all. After being in Paris for week where many people are courteous, but not necessarily overly-friendly, our arrival at this hotel in Lisbon was such a treat. The people at reception, the concierge, the bell persons, the breakfast room, etc. all deserve lots of credit! The hotel is centrally located, has beautiful common rooms (actually, quite splashy), large, fancy breakfast room with amazing buffet, and up-to-date guest rooms ( a bit old-fashioned, but I'm good with that). I can't recommend this hotel highly enough, and look forward to returning next week!

Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean

Reviewed By TeeJay272015

I stayed for 2 nights for a conference at this hotel and it really has a 5 star experience and the view of the calm ocean is magnificent. The view from the elevators while moving is beautiful. The staff at the reception and the hotel door are very polite. The room was very spacious, clean and fresh. Food was of very good quality. Tea & coffee is complimentary but finding the kettle from under the cupboard and plugging it under the table is a little inconvenient.

1908 Lisboa Hotel

At 1908 we welcome people from all over the world, we are hotel, restaurant and bar, but we are also an art gallery permanently evolving. While Art Nouveau shines in all its splendour outside in the building facade, inside its references are only in the works of art. Featuring pieces by contemporary Portuguese artists who were invited to reinterpret the building and help bring it to the our days.

EPIC SANA Marques Hotel

EPIC SANA Marquês is the new five star hotel that is being born in the space of the former hotel SANA Lisboa. The ongoing work requires the temporary closure of the business unit, and it is our priority to ensure that this closure will provide unequivocal added value to our customers. In the new hotel, which will be inaugurated in mid-2020, we will have increased accommodation capacity, new and diverse services that will surely surpass the quality levels by which we are already widely recognized. Its strategic location in the city center, the comfort of the rooms, the dining areas, the leisure areas and the personalized service down to the smallest detail will make EPIC SANA Marquês much more than a hotel, bringing it to an experience that you want to have. During this phase, and to find alternative solutions to your accomodation and restaurante needs, consult the other SANA Group hotels.

One of the best hotels I have been to in Europe. Located in the modern area of Lisbon. Across the road: There is a large mall with all the major chains, Oriente train station from which you can get anywhere you want, an excellent Thai spa, a three minute walk away. The hotel has an excellent restaurant! A bar on the roof from which there is a lovely view! The highlight of the hotel is the staff - smiling, kind, willing to help with any request. Highly really really really recommend.

Fantastic Hotel!

Reviewed By nichelel2022

We stayed at this H10 property from May 26 - 29, 2022 as the final leg of our Spain/Portugal Trip. This hotel was fantastic. The hotel atheistic is absolutely beautiful. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast alone makes this hotel worth it - we could not believe the variety. The hotel is conveniently located to the metro and we were able to explore the city easily because of that. The rooftop bar is a must see! Because of the stay at this hotel, we will seek out other H10 hotels in the future.

Best view in coimbra! We travelled early in the morning to coimbra on the bus and had a long walk to the train station and the hotel. We were there early so it was not time for check in. Instead of having to carry around the bags we are able to put them here for free. Thank you!
