I stayed at the Diplimatico for business. I did find the hotel a bit dated but I found it to be clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The staff were very friendly and helpful to me - a single, non Portugese speaking older woman. The room was large for European standards. I was able to take tours with pick up and drop... more

We stayed in VIP Diplomatico for four nights, while on a business trip in Lisbon. Unfortunately we left it until the last minute to book and this hotel seemed the best of what was available. The location is good, however the hotel itself is very 1980s and the service was terrible. Upon arrival, there wasn’t non-smoking rooms clean, so the... more

We stayed at this hotel in July 2008. It is a fair walk or a bus ride from the centre, so if you plan to stay for an evening performance downtown, I would recommend a more central location. On the map it looked a lot closer. It is off the main road, so print a detailed map, we had a... more

We stayed at the VIP Diplomatico from 14 - 18 May 2008. We read a lot of hotel reviews and were non the wiser to which hotel to choose: so many differing opinions but we found the hotel to be more than adequate for a few nights and would not hesitate to stay there again, or hesitate to recommend it.... more

Near metro and buses. Many attractions were within a 25 min. walking distance. Our room away from the street was quiet and had a nice view of the city. The staff spoke fairly good English and were helpful. Our biggest complaint would be that the bed and pillows were hard. more

We stayed at the Diplomatico in Lisbon in September 2007. We got two rooms for which we paid $76 Euro each. The rooms are very adequate, spacious, and clean. The location is excellent for sightseeing. Parking was complimentary, and breakfast first class. Internet was available for a small fee, and the Wi-fi worked very efficiently. We highly recommend this hotel... more

We drove our jeep with 2 kids (9 &11) from London via Tours and Biarritz, Michelin guide in hand , without having booked anything in advance. Our priorty was to find a clean hotel with a room that would accommodate all 4 of us and its own car park- with a budget of no more than £100/night- not that easy,in... more

After leaving the Algarve we made our way to Lisbon. We stayed here and was not sure what to expect. I read many reviews about this hotel and again was very surprised. It was adorable. The location is Perfect, it is not in the center of everything it is about a 10 - 25 minute walk to the Barrio Alto... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in April. Great little hotel, large room, nice view, liked the balcony. The only drawback was the scary lifts! I think they need to be replaced. more
