Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in June: 1. Location is good, not great - 15min walk to Ave Liberdade (main Lisbon avenue), where there are lots of high street luxury shops (Furla, Louis Vuitton, Boss etc) - 20min walk to nearest Metro (Avenida stop) - safe and quiet area - convenience shop (MetroPrice) to the left of hotel,... more

I spent 3 nights/4 days in Hotel Vip Madrid. The location is ok. About half an hour of walking from Rossio and about 10 minutes walking from Marques de Pombal Square/metro. It is supposed to be 4 star. But it's a little bit too dark , dusy and smelly. The breakfast is not that great either. Scrambled eggs, ham, some... more

We've been there for the New Year celebration and were told by our travel agent that it is a four star hotel in the centre of the city. They were right, it was somehow close to the centre (15 mins of walk) but definitely not a four star. First of all, the receptionist were very unfriendly, not willing at all... more

The hotel is in the center of the city and the staff was very helpful in guiding us to a few things to do. They were extremely polite, even while some angry, drunk French guy yelled at them repeatedly one night we were there. It's a well kept place, very clean and nice rooms. Nothing amazing, but good quality. I... more

This is billed as a business hotel, located a few blocks walk from Marques de Pombal and Avenida de Liberdade.

Bathroom is superclean, with bidet and toilet, tiled shower, shampoo-soap freebies. View from our room... more

Breakfast is good with lots of choice.. Location is great with easy access to Marquis de pombal Metro. Rooms were clean and spacious. Only they don't provide an iron but you can find... more

You have to take this hotel for what it is. it is very you get what you pay for so what do u expect? the rooms are fairly basic but are clean and have air conditioning. You are only 10 mins in a taxi to the port or other various attractions and are a stones throw from 2 of the... more

If you want to stay in Lisbon, choose another hotel. Madrid Hotel should be a 4 Star, but it's a dirt and neglected place in which you wouldn't pass a night. It does not corrispond to a 4 Star standard, the staff at the reception are unpleasant, when you ask for something they seem to be there to do you... more

We stayed in Lisbon for two weeks. First week in the Radisson hotel (GOOD, see separate review). Then we decided to go "downtown" and book the Madrid Hotel thru a internet travel service. (ratestogo and/or hotelclub) The price was good for this SUPPOSEDLY **** hotel. It is at best a * or **.Problems: 1.Quite a walk from the main Republic... more
