The double room offered a cozy retreat after a day of exploring. One highlight was the nearby park, perfect for a morning stroll, and the hotel is also just a short walk to the metro station, making it easy to get into the city center. I particularly enjoyed the continental breakfast with fresh pastries every morning. The staff's effort to provide a takeaway breakfast on my early departure was a great touch.

Check out the nearby restaurant O Carteiro for a complimentary aperitif when you mention it at the reception—great local dining experience.

* Excellent staff recommendations
* Delicious breakfast options
* Comfy, clean room with fridge

the tiniest bathroom sink I've ever seen was definitely a highlight. To top it off, I waited days for the cable TV to get fixed because, surprise, it was scrambled, apparently they only care about the guests who shout the loudest. An upgrade for my 'special stay' would have been nice, but I guess they don't offer that anymore.

Great breakfast options!

great central base for exploring vibrant city life and parks

i had a fantastic stay with easy access to amazing spots like the calouste gulbenkian museum just over a kilometer away and the beautiful liberty avenue only a 15-minute walk, which made my weekend city strolls incredibly enjoyable. the staff were welcoming and helpful, making my experience even better, and having a convenient grocery store nearby was a great bonus for any quick needs.

The location is fantastic, very close to the Metro and within walking distance to the city center. The breakfast options were plentiful and really tasty, and the rooms are comfortable with thoughtful amenities that enhance the stay. The staff provided insightful local tips that helped us enjoy our time exploring.

the breakfast was awesome, and i loved that they kept the pastries fresh and warm. the lobby's comfy couches were a perfect spot to kick back while waiting. super convenient location too, just a quick walk to the metro.

Nothing could be improved.

stayed at empire marques for a week and really enjoyed it. my double room was clean and had a comfy bed. A fridge and kettle, which were convenient. the breakfast was quite good, especially the warm pastries. public transport was easy to access, and it’s pretty close to the city center, so exploring was no hassle.

just a tad further from things than expected.

good room , but area needs improvement

The hotel provided a comfy single room with a nice balcony that offered a pleasant view. The breakfast featured decent options, and I particularly enjoyed the fresh pastries each morning. One standout experience was the exceptional hospitality by the receptionist Pedro, who was attentive and friendly throughout my stay.

The surrounding area felt a bit less vibrant than expected.

I felt like a contortionist in that tiny room—just enough space to reach the bathroom! And bless the balcony, but I didn’t sign up for a stage performance with my luggage.
