I wish I knew that there were stairs and a tiny elevator to get to the 2nd floor to be able to talk with the lady in charge of this hotel. I wish I knew that this hotel was being remodeled. The lady was nice and the man who helped us get into our taxi when we left the hotel was extremely nice too. The room was very nice and the bathroom too. This hotel is not suitable for older people. I bet is going to be better when all the remodeling is done.

Perfect perfect location, but very old building, they were renovating while we were there (oct 2023) bathroom, shower had mold. Carpet on floor….full of stains. A/c worked very well. Breakfast, very basic; coffee, juice, croissant, bun, jams, ham and cheese. Although very well situated, i would not return, which is too bad, because very well situated. Staff very friendly

I love this hotel but the bathroom shower had mold so bad it was disgusting and I was only spending one night so I just accepted it. I stayed 4 and half years ago and it was clean. I hope after the remodeling they are doing they will have clean bathrooms.

The property is a work in progress. You are buying location & a great location it is. The breakfast is not fancy, but for an American, the coffee may have been the best I’ve found in Europe. Every day was an adventure on what was not cleaned in the room. I had my own shower & sink, but multiple rooms shared 2 toilets.

Cheap hostel-esque hotel. The bathroom had mould, and amenities basic. We did not get the numbers of beds for the number of guests, even though photos showed they had enough beds. Nice staff.

In den Reiseführern steht, dass Lissabon immer noch eine billige Stadt ist, aber meiner Erfahrung nach nicht, wenn es um Unterkünfte geht. Ich hatte Mühe, eine Unterkunft zu finden, die in unserem Budget lag, aber dann war die Pension Londres im Reiseführer als günstige Unterkunft aufgeführt. Sie lag tatsächlich innerhalb unseres Budgets und war für uns als Familie mit 2 Erwachsenen und 2 Kindern gut geeignet. Das Zimmer ist riesig, wir hatten 2 Doppelbetten und ein Einzelbett, so dass wir sehr bequem geschlafen haben. Das Bad ist sehr klein, aber für unsere Bedürfnisse war es ok. Das Hotel könnte eine große Renovierung vertragen... besonders die Bäder. Das Frühstück war ok...kein Müsli angeboten. Brot und Käse und Schinken und etwas Konfiture. Kaffee und Säfte. Die Lage ist gut, um in die Stadt zu kommen... die Straßenbahn ist nur einen kurzen Spaziergang entfernt und bringt einen zur U-Bahn-Station. Wir blieben 4 Nächte und das Hotel war für uns ok. Wenn Sie eine Person für Luxus sind, dann ist dieses Hotel nicht für Sie.

The building is old, lift is very small can hold only one person with luggage. The hotelnis situated in a very busy part of Lisboa, traffic and nightkife cause a lot of noise. Unlike North American hotels, the rooms do not have a fridge and microwavve. Besides this, the hotel is clean and the staff are very nice, very accomodating and understanding. There is even breakfast served which is better than north american hotels. Dont let the old building shock you, the rooms are decent and well cleaned with room cleaned everyday.

It's an older property - but for the price we were very happy with the quality of the accommodations. We got a very large room with a high ceiling with all sorts of interesting decorations. Breakfast was decent. Only complaint was that our room faced out onto the very busy and sometimes noisy street. But we would stay here again without a doubt.

When you enter the room, the smell is intolerable. The bathroom size is so small. We couldn’t stayed the second night because the first morning when woke up find bed bugs. We left the hotel and didn’t stay the second night and they say they couldn’t refund us.

Response from Silva on 18 Dec 2019
Thank you for your review. Concerning your remark, no claim was done at the reception desk. Besides this, although we have no trace of any pests on our property, a preventive pest control was made in this particular room (300 euros + VAT) and nothing was found according to the report left with us. At least, this intervention solved our concern about this issue. Pensão Londres

Room was decent size for a single traveler, although it doesn’t have a toilet, so you need to go to the shared bathroom down the hallway. Also, the bathroom reeked of sewage smell that it kept me awake at night! Leaving the window open was helpful but you just have to deal with the noise at night.

A budget hotel in the old town
This is a budget 2 star hotel. The location was good being in the old town and near the centre, but it is at the top of a hill. There were plenty of bars and restaurants nearby as well as the botanical gardens. The room was good, clean and the shower worked well. Breakfast is included but pretty basic and the breakfast room was quite crowded at times. Staff were friendly and helpful.

a no frills hotel in a chic neighbourhood.
The hotel is located in Bairro Alto a neighborhood happened to be in my list of sights to be seen. It is close to Metro and the Russio square if you don't mind the walk on the very steep Gloria Avenue. The room I stayed is small and could use some updates but still clean and comfortable. The front desk people were all helpful giving information and directions. The breakfast room is really awesome like a fine dining restaurant and so is the continental breakfast.
