Great location (central but not noisy), comfortable, large, pleasant rooms, delicious breakfast buffet. But the added value of the Britania Hotel is its staff. Knowledgeable, friendly and warm but not overbearing - I felt like I was visiting a charming old aunt. More

We just spent 3 nights at the Britania and I would recommend it. It is in a nice location away from the main drag but it only took 10 minutes to walk into the city which we did every day. The rooms are lovely, very nice marble bathroom complete with bathrobe and slippers. The TV in the room is very... More

This hotel is #1 on the Tripadvisor list so I thought I would try it. We were not disappointed! The Britania Hotel is the finest European hotels I have stayed in to date .From the moment we walked in we were greeted warmly by the front desk clerk. Check in was a breeze even though we arrived well before check... More

The experience was very good: the room was big, with minimalist decoration and a spacious bathroom. The cleaning service outstanding and the bathroom products (shampoo, soap, etc) great. Location: it's not in the city center, but Lisbon is a relatively small city, so you get there very fast, we appreciated the quiet location and the nice walks to the hotel.... More

This is a fine hotel and a reasonable value. Free parking, wifi, nice service, etc. but it is not a five star hotel... The bed was terrible, if felt a foot shorter than a normal king bed, the room and lobby are clean but nothing out of a design magazine, the neighborhood is good but the street it's on is... More

2011 Trip Advisor award winner really deserves this title. Nothing can be said more than this since hundreds of visitors already voted with 5/5 points, I can only join them. Stay there, you will not regret, probably Britania is the best hotel in Lisbon for this price and every single penny returns. More

The high percentage of excellent reviews of the Britania is not a surprise to me. The hotel, and particularly the staff, deserve every excellent vote they get. I stayed 6 nights at the Britania in early January and enjoyed every minute there. The decor is very nice, the rooms are big and very comfortable with all the amenities you need,... More

Trully great experience in a lovely hotel with nice and useful staff. Can't really add much to the other reviews here, highly enjoyed my stay in Britania and will certainly return. Just so that you know what you do NOT find in Britania: - Great window views: the hotel is in a paralell street to the central Avenida da Liberdade,... More

Some hotels are just "right" and Britania is certainly one of them. The combination of the rooms, the public areas, the service, the perfect location, the friendly staff and the art-deco design are probably the secret blend that makes the Britania a wonderful Hotel. The art-deco radiates warmth and comfort and we felt relaxed and peaceful throughout our stay. The... More

There is simply nothing to criticise (or make constructive comment) about the Britania. It is that simple. ALL the staff are simply magnificent. The front desk staff know everything about Lisbon and it's surrounding districts and their instructions about getting there are brilliant. Their knowledge of local restaurants is staggering - always, always, always follow their recommendations! There is nothing... More
