Hôtels Curio Collection by Hilton à Lisbonne

Dès le moment où vous voyez le signe sur le brillant bâtiment blanc en ailes et marchez par la porte tournante dans le lobby de vintage, vous vous sentez en retard. Le salon est situé autour d'un beau bar avec des cocktails superbes et un super bock froid sur le tapis. La bar de mimosa et les machines Lavazza Super automatiques Espresso sont un joli touche. Les omelettes et les pâteaux sont délicieux. Les chambres sont confortables avec toutes les installations modernes, y compris une douche de pluie magnifique. Si je suis prise, ma seule plainte était la AC dans la chambre avait des problèmes de garder avec la AC dans les halls et les boutons de touche automatique LED n'avaient pas de dimmers. Le gym est bien équipé et situé dans le fond de la piscine, près du centre d'affaires de vintage bien conçu. Merci pour un parfait couple de jours dans un beau quartier à pied de la plupart des Burroughs.

We stayed at the Duo Hilton Lisbon post cruise in late Nov. The Duo is in a great location for sightseeing with many sights/restaurants/bars/shopping within walking distance or by public transit ride (The hotel is quite new as told by the taxi driver that drove us from the cruise port). The Duo has a beautiful courtyard and offers a great breakfast (great when you are Gold/Diamond status). I also want to compliment the hotel front desk staff for being incredibly helpful with directions, assistance with Uber (e.g. lost driver), and other tourist tips. The check in was chaotic may be due to higher number of check in from passengers off the cruise. The check in staff were overwhelmed plus the printer broke down and took time for the staff to get it going again. We were offered an upgrade to a junior suite (part of being Diamond status - hope next time got similar treatment w/o Diamond status?). We were told the room should be ready around 1pm so we went off to explore the neighbourhood. However when we got back by 1:30pm was told the room still unavailable. So sat in the lobby to wait as was tired and the room was not ready until close to 3pm (would have been nice if the check in staff could offer tea or coffee during our wait). The front desk staff are nice and might need some additional training to be at the Hilton standard. Our suite is on the 2nd floor on the new section overlooking the court yard and the suite is nice. However, the staff came by within an hour after we got in the suite and told us that the coffee table need to removed for polishing (the table was never returned for the 5 days we were there. There were a couple issues that got us worried about the standard of this hotel: 1) The house cleaning staff: one morning when we were going off and observed the house cleaning staff cleaning the room across from our suite was using a used pillow case polishing the glasses! Not sure if that is an approved Hilton standard? 2) We informed the front desk staff that the hotel was blasting music over the court yard at 6 am and we were told the music should only start at 7am. Well nothing was changed and we got woke up at 6 am daily by the bass sound during our stay (great alarm clock). The restaurant is the hidden gem and the servers are very friendly. My wife especially look forward to our daily breakfast especially the daily special juice (one of servers made the special juice daily). A variety of cold cuts, bread and pastries are served plus eggs/omelette made to your request is offered. There were some issues that keep this hotel from getting a perfect score but we would still consider returning to this hotel as these issues might be due the growing pains. The location of this hotel is great and is a nice boutique hotel even if we don't get an upgrade.
