Grand hotel with outstanding service
We had a very enjoyable experience staying at the Olissippo Lapa Palace. A grand hotel. The room was very nice and the welcome bottle of port and cookies was a great touch. We had a good view of the river and the the outdoor pool and the gardens. The bar had great decor along with a piano player. They made an outstanding martini on the rocks. My wife and I were looked after extremely well by Patricia. Her outstanding service and help made our evening memorable. We were enjoying the bar so much that we were not sure whether to eat in the bar or the hotel restaurant where we had a reservation. Patricia spoke to the restaurant staff and arranged for us to be served from the main menu in the bar if we chose to stay there. We did end up eating in the restauarant. Wanted to try a Portuguese delicacy so had the suckling pig. It was outstanding. We used the indoor pool twice and liked it. Our card keys had stopped working. When I mentioned it to the spa attendant, Teresa, she said that she would take care of it. She went to reception and got us new keys while we were still in the pool. It is outstanding service like this that makes this hotel so special. The breakfast room was beautiful and the breakfast itself was just excellent. Just enjoyed taking our time with a couple of coffees and the good selection.

Great hotel but really bad concierge scam restaurant recommendation
Great hotel and very nice staff and service and beautiful swimming pool for entire family to enjoy. Only major complain is that their Conceirge recommended a sea food restaurant for us called Numes Real Marisqueria which turned out to be total scam and tourist abuse location We only realised this afterwards when we read all the scam and awful reviews on Trip Advisor to stay away from it! Not sure if Conceirge receives tips back from this restaurant but they should not recommend such scam places to their customers Really bad advice when we trusted the Conceirge! https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g189158-d1016407-Reviews-Nunes_Real_Marisqueira-Lisbon_Lisbon_District_Central_Portugal.html

Never gets too old
A traditional old school hotel which is a real delight. The service is great, the atmosphere is relaxed and one of the only hotels with an outdoor pool yet so centrally located. Always top of the list for a trip to Lisbon!

The best of the best!
We have stayed in a lot of nice hotels and this one is right up there with the best. The staff is amazing and so friendly and helpful. The building is gorgeous both inside and the outside landscaping. We were very lucky to get upgraded to very comfortable and elegant suite with a lovely view of the garden. The bed was extremely comfortable so we slept very well. The location is good for getting around Lisbon. We walked to many places and used UBER when going farther. We dined at 2 very good nearby restaurants recommended by the desk staff and also at the hotel bar. We had cocktails each afternoon on the bar patio and I wish we knew the name of our server as he was extremely personable and remembered our names and what we ordered. And we really enjoyed the beautiful outdoor pool each afternoon after walking many miles to explore Lisbon. Breakfast in the mornings was excellent too with a choice of sitting inside or outside. We had such a lovely stay in our palace and we highly recommend it.

Good, BUT
Very nice staff, incredibly friendly and polite, and very good location, but two problems: 1) Rooms have terrible isolation and they have a lot of noise from other rooms, from employees cleaning and fixing things, etc., so not easy to rest, and 2) Rooms are a bit old for the price point and status of the hotel
