Hotel Ibis Lisboa LiberdadeEditor's Pick

Reviewed by EuroCheapo.com Editors email this page

The two-star Ibis Lisboa Liberdade offers 70 surprise-free rooms at generally low rates, located minutes from the Maquis da Pombal metro station and Avenida da Liberdade.

Rooms are attractively outfitted and completely standardized, with cream walls, wood-laminate floors, handy desk and luggage racks and plenty of closet space. All are equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen satellite TV, telephone and radio.

Private bathrooms, in all rooms, have large shower/tub combos, hairdryers and quite a bit of space.

At €69 for a double, the Ibis presents a solid value for Lisbon. There are a couple of extra charges to consider, however. Wi-Fi is offered for free downstairs in the efficient lobby, but you'll pay €3 an hour to go online from your room. Breakfast is also not included in the nightly rate—a buffet is available for €6.

Still, while we try to focus on smaller, independently-owned hotels and pensions on EuroCheapo, we can't ignore the value that the Ibis chain offers. With clean, fully-loaded rooms that remain firmly in Cheapo territory, the hotel is a budget traveler's friend.
