Hotels near Benfica, Lisbon

I have always used Ibis Alfragide anytime we go to Portugal, sadly this time was last one on this premises. Or choice for Alfragide was always due to the best accommodation around any Ibis I know, sadly yesterday was our weeding day and coming from Alcacer do Sal towards Lisbon we’ve chose Alfragide over Setúbal for the reasons above. We checking in on our way to our diner party ( around 9pm) as we didn’t want to leave it till late hours in the next morning. We’re given the room 101 ( a disabled assisted room) despite none of us not been disabled and not asked for one.  Bed frame is really outdated , cracking at the slightest move, could seat on loo properly to to the assistance bars on it we had even a shower assisted chair in it.  Therefore we wouldn’t ever be using IBIS again. The only reason I can find for this to happen is the room been booked through Trip.com ( way in advance) instead of using my ‘frequent user’ card. Lesson learned.

I booked this hotel cause it a close location to many things around in Lisbon. While it is not a fancy hotel, it serves well for solo travellers and families. The room was very spacious and the AC worked well. The cleaning service came every day and left the room clean and fresh. Breakfast was included with our stay, and it was a usual hotel breakfast. You could pick from hot items such as scrambled eggs and meat products like beans and sausage or bacon. On one day they also had mushrooms. Then of course the bread variety and some pastry items such as croissant and muffins. Cheeses, yoghurt and fruits as well cereals were available. Eating breakfast at 10 AM usually filled us up for the day and we hardly ate lunch outside. The staff was friendly and when we requested an iron they provided that with no problem. The room had a small safe for valuables when we left for the day and plenty of storage space for the clothes and suit cases. The bathroom was very nice as well, lots of counter space and even a clothing line across the tub to hang some items to dry if you had to was a shirt or socks. The hotel is located across small soccer practice field so from our balcony we could watch people play some soccer games. Be advised the hotel is very close to the airport (about 10 min) so there was noise from planes but hardly noticeable. During our stay, 2 of the main elevators broke and were not usable but luckily we were on the second floor so taking the stairs was easy but they do have other elevators available. And for anyone not looking to leave the hotel for lunch or dinner, they provide plenty of dishes in their restaurant and bar area. But just a few steps around that area, you will find great places to eat such a Turkish restaurant with a 10 page menu I highly recommend to try.

Excellent stay! Very comfortable, clean and well-located hotel. The staff was extremely attentive and helpful throughout our stay. Delicious and varied breakfast. We will definitely return!

Comfortable and in a central location, beds are super comfortable and the breakfast is good too.

Friendly, helpful staff. The free breakfast was excellent.

Very tiny space, but neat and convenient location

The room is clean, and the shower is working in order. The breakfast at 9€ is value for money. Wish that the access to hot drinking water could be available at every room level. The screening of Live soccer games at the lounge is readily available. Nice.
