Hotel Eduardo VII

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

There are no thrills to be had at the Hotel Eduardo VII. Truth be told, it's a little sleepy. However, the 140 rooms at this three-star hotel are in decent shape, the amenities are reliable and the service is steady.

Decorated with a formal, classic look, the Eduardo has moderately sized rooms with wooden or carpet flooring. Furniture is reproduction antique and includes a writing desk and chair. All rooms feature air conditioning, a TV, minibar and safe. Pretty Portuguese tiles in the bathrooms liven things up a little.

Triple rooms can be booked with three twin beds or a double and single—the latter ideal for families. The hotel has one non-smoking floor, a rarity in the older Lisbon neighborhoods and a definite "new city" perk. Request ahead.

Though not directly on the Parque Eduardo VII, the hotel is a block away. It's also just down the street from Praça Marquês de Pombal and the Metro stop.

The on-site restaurant offers room service, and Wi-Fi access is available throughout the hotel for a charge. The TV lounge, with its black leather couch and billiards table, is reminiscent of an old boys’ club and is a nice place to sip a stiff port. Breakfast is sometimes included in the room rate (check when booking).
