Pensao Residencial Princesa
Rating:
Situated in an attractive location close to the city centre and many scenic sights such as the Marques de Pombal, the Residencial Princesa is the ideal base for the independent or business traveller looking to stay in the city. The hotel is well serviced by public transport with the nearest bus stop just a short walk away allowing you to reach much of the city and the hotel was totally renewed in 1998/1999 with several affordable and cosy rooms ideal for singles or couples. Several helpful facilities and services are offered by the hotel including Wi-Fi access in the public areas (local charge) and you can take advantage of the fax/photocopying facilities that are available.

Lisbon is one of the liveliest and most elegant cities in Europe and the Portuguese people are always inviting making the city a welcoming place full of modernity, history and tradition. In the vicinity of the hotel you can find a variety of leisure activities and sports such as tennis, golf and rugby as well as impressive attractions like the Lisbon Oceanarium, marketed as the world¿s 2nd largest aquarium where you can see a wonderful array of marine life. If you can appreciate the history and culture of the location you are staying then you may like to visit the several museums in the city such as the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum that house¿s one of the world¿s finest private art collections; or you could just take a trip into the picturesque Alfama quarter, the oldest part of Lisbon full of historical architecture right from the walls of the Castelo de Sao Jorge, a fortress and castle that has been around since at least the 10th century, to the Sé de Lisboa, Lisbon¿s oldest church.
