Corinthia Hotel Lisbon

This is a true 5-star hotel. This was my second stay as I had been here once some time ago. My room on the 22nd floor was well apportioned, had all the necessary amenities and was spotlessly clean. The queen-sized bed was super-comfortable. From the 22nd floor you have great views of the historic Lisbon Aquaduct, the suspension bridge and the statue of Christ over on the other side of the Tagus. Staff are professional, helpful and courteous as you'd expect in an establishment like this. The Lisbon Metro is close by, is cheap and will take you into the centre of the city in ten minutes so you won't have to rely on taxis to get around. There are a few things to be aware of though; The life or elevator system takes some getting used to at first as you need to use your room card to tap on a screen on the ground floor before you can access one of the four elevators. There are no buttons inside the elevators to make any other choice than your own floor, especially if you're on one of the high floors. At busy times such as breakfast time, you could wait a good five minutes for your elevator so if you're in a hurry, beware. At popular times, checking in could result in you joining a long line of people at reception, especially at lunchtimes. I had to wait 20 minutes before I could check in. Access to the pool and the well-appointed gymnasium are included with the price of your stay but access to the sauna and the steam room are considered a part of the water therapy treatments and are priced at €40 an hour. One unpleasant surprise that, if you book through a tour operator you probably won't know about is the €300 deposit the hotel takes up-front from your credit or bank card for breakages and tourist tax. Assuming no breakages, the amount, less tourist tax for your stay, will be returned to you when you check out, so make sure you check this detail when you check out. The on-site Erva restaurant is worth a visit if you appreciate good food. I've written about this on a separate review. But despite the observations, it is a true 5-star experience.

From the moment i booked my guests' experience to Corinthia through Marta the Reservations Manager, i was met with genuine hospitality and impeccable service. Marta helped with a special request, checked on the guests to make sure everything was okay and provided local tours they could check out. The professionalism and warm attitude of the staff also made a real difference and truly elevated the experience. I look forward to working with you guys in the near future

Had a wonderful time at Corinthia Lisbon - from a free shuttle every half hour to smiling and attentive staff at every turn, this hotel is a must for Lisbon. The breakfast had an incredible spread and we loved the turn down service - will be back if again in Portugal!

From the very moment I arrived, I was truly impressed by the warmth, professionalism, and genuine kindness of every single member of the hotel staff. Their smiles and welcoming manner made me feel not just like a guest, but like a valued friend coming home. Having the privilege of staying at this wonderful hotel in my own country, especially returning as an emigrant, filled me with joy and a deep sense of connection. It was more than just a stay, it was a homecoming, wrapped in comfort and care. My room was nothing short of outstanding. Every detail had clearly been thought through, from the high-quality amenities to the impeccable cleanliness that truly stood out. I want to give a special thanks to the amazing housekeeping team, whose attention to detail made my stay even more enjoyable and stress-free. I must also highlight the incredible Telmo from the front of house/reception team. His warmth, professionalism, and genuine willingness to help were exceptional. He is a true credit to the hotel, and an example of the outstanding hospitality I experienced throughout my stay. Thank you to the entire team for making my time here unforgettable. I left not only impressed, but with a heart full of gratitude, and I can’t wait to return.

Very nice hotel, great staff. Shuttle to downtown on the half hour. Good restaurants , pharmacy, and grocery nearby. Outdoor bar very pleasant.
