I was in an upgraded room (thank you Amex) that was quite spacious, with a viw of the interior atrium space, thus allowing for lots of light,

The room was superb, the breakfast and the service was first class and the hotel decor was exquisite.

The location is ideal, the staff is super helpful and friendly, the rooms are lovely, the breakfast is excellent.

The hotel, the room, the service, the breakfast.

The best thing about the hotel must be their breakfast buffet.

Rooms were immaculate and luxurious, and breakfast was a much anticipated event for us each morning, as the food, variety, and service were exemplary.

The breakfast is sensational - so many hot and cold choices, plus the loveliest rice pudding I’ve ever had.

The breakfast was amazing and the staff was incredible.

The breakfast was incredible, one of the best I have ever seen in my world travels, and served from 7 to 11:30 so you can go early or sleep late.

We also greatly appreciated the wonderful breakfast every morning.

The included breakfast was outstanding and served until 11:30 am.

Excellent stay. We arrived very early am and were able to check in within the hour, after enjoying a delicious complimentary breakfast in the hotel (provided every morning.)

The inside of the hotel is beautiful and the gar and breakfast area were great.

Great location, easy access, great breakfast buffet.

Friendly staff, beautiful decor and a great breakfast.

The breakfast is served in a bright elegant room and is excellent with very attentive staff.

The breakfast each morning was fantastic.

Excellent personal service, great breakfast and a small surprise everyday in your room.

Also the breakfast is well taken care of.

The breakfast buffet was perfect and their service, remarkable and elegant.

Best place to stay when you're in Lisbon. A historic building with irs own soul :-)

A great stay at this magnificent classic hotel.

The hotel, located in a perfect area of Lisbon,  is a historical hotel.

If you enjoy traveling to well kept and maintained historical site, with an amazing team who only wants to make certain your experience is pleasant then you just found your home in Lisbon!

If you want historic, best location in the middle of everything, great views, great staff, this is the place.

The hotel is beautiful and historical, we had room 416 with a statue to the right of our window.

The location was perfect for visiting the sites of historic Lisbon.

This is a classy place and I'd recommend anyone going to Lisbon stay there.

The hotel was built in 1892 and is a classy looking older hotel.

The hotel is classic old school with beautiful areas to enjoy.

The hotel is extremely ornate and historical in design.

Apart from being a most elegant and historic hotel, with an impeccably professional and friendly staff and a top flight breakfast buffet, this classic luxury-beauty from 1892 - ideally positioned slam in the middle of everything the city has to offer - has a really great ambience.

Perfect location, caring staff, personal service and classic old world European charm.

This hotel had all the classic charm supplemented with all the modern touches the traveller of today requires including lots of chargers and a fully charged no cost I phone in your room to take out and about with you if required.

The Avenida location within historic Lisbon is the best.

We chose Hotel Avenida Palace because we are very fond of historic hotels.

From the moment you walk through the doors everything is beautiful, the staff is courteous and caring, classic and charming hotel.

but also for its historical connections - you will be staying in a building which in its time has hosted not only the rich and famous but also Spies, secret agents, world celebrities, Royalty, and of course, Alves Reis, arch conman and brilliant criminal mind, who used the Palace bar as his office, ( do go for a look at his house, The Casa do Menhino D’Oro, The house of the golden boy, and then afterwards visit the home of Amalia Rodrigues, which is close by, Amalia’s pet parrot, Chico, will welcome you!)

One last thing, the breakfast buffet is extensive in a beautiful room overlooking a roundabout of the Main Street with a classic monument to view.

but comfortable). We enjoyed the evening piano music, classy service, exceptional breakfast (still dreaming of it, especially the smoked salmon and spinach/ham quiche!)

To top it all off, the location was the best, right in the centre of old town, a Xmas market over the road, the shopping malls were a 5 minute walk as was the tram car.

Location is perfect, walking distance to many places.

The hotel itself is in an excellent location for exploring all of it.

The hotel is in a perfect location for exploring Lisbon on foot.

The location is perfect with metro and mainline stations only moments away.

The location was great near the center of town.

Location is perfect for exploring on foot.

The hotel is in a great location to enjoy the old town, shopping and great restaurants.

It is located in the heart of Lisbon and is within walking distance of many of the attractions.

It was beautiful, in a great central location and the service was excellent.

Great location, unexpected amenities, large room and extensive breakfast make this a wonderful choice in Lisbon.

Hotel Avenida Palace is centrally located in Lisbon.

The location is perfect for walking to plenty of nearby destinations after a sumptuous breakfast.

It's location within the city is perfect especially if you want to walk around "old town".

There was live evening music on the weekends too.

We enjoyed the bar every evening and the live piano music.

Piano recitals in the evening a nice touch.

In the evening between 7-8 there is a piano player in the lounge area where you can have cocktails and dinner.

The hotel is in the center of the city, it is clean, well designed and the night music is a great addition.

Staff were welcoming and helpful, the building is absolutely stunning, bar with live music (and well made cocktails)  in the evenings is a lovely touch and the location is very good for a wide number of hotels and tours.

Their bar has live piano music most nights.

Great location next to a metro station; free breakfast, upgraded to a suite upon arrival, music in the salon nightly, good drinks from the bar.

Our room was great, housekeeping was outstanding,and the bar downstairs was a perfect place to unwind at the end of the day, while listening to jazz or fado while sipping perfectly made drinks.

The staff were so attentive, from the front door to check in all very special, professional with old style grace, in the bar at the piano lounge, plus the cocktails were delicious 😁 and the breakfast experience was 2nd to none and I have been lucky to travel to and stay in some of the best hotels in the world.

We also enjoyed the live pianist each evening whilst having a drink in the bar.

The classical pianist playing the piano in the lounge everyday at 7:00 pm and the choice of a complimentary bottle of wine in our room.

At 7 pm each evening there is a 1 hour piano concert.

We wanted to spend more time enjoying the evening music in the stunning bar area, it's that nice.

Their cute bar is a good place for a pre- or post-dinner drink and had lovely music every day.

We enjoyed the tea service and the nighlty piano music.

At night we'd stop off at the lounge for drinks and live piano music.

The large, open lounge space is a nice place to relax after a day of sightseeing to enjoy some music and a glass of wine.

The rooms were brilliantly looked after and the little gifts we were left every day were an awesome touch, they made all the difference!

We arrived mid- morning and were put immediately in a upgraded room.

The superior room is gorgeous, very big and tastefully decorated.

The room was average size and the bathroom was clean and a good size.

They have tried to keep the hotel rooms up to modern standards

Our room was spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable.

But to our pleasant surprise not only were we able to get our room early they upgraded us because we had booked directly with them.

Great comfortable rooms, the stuff is going out of the way to be helpful.

It was such a pleasure to get little surprises each evening left in our room.

Our room was luxurious and had all the amenities we needed.

There were 6 of us traveling and they were able to accommodate our request to be close to each other and got 3 rooms in a row.

The staff is fantastic from the front desk, room attendants and bar staff.

Easy to walk anywhere and the train station is right next door, making an early morning trip to Sintra a breeze.

(try a day trip to Sintra if you have time).

Easy walking distance to many of the main attractions with  metro stops and Rossio train station from where you take the train to Sintra  right next door.

But you are literally next to the train station for Sintra and the bus stop and the Metro.

We loved the location in the old area of Lisbon which is perfect for a stroll through the town or a train to Sintra (a must see).

The Rossio train station is right next door so convenient for day trips to Sintra, etc.

Rooms are perfect and its right next to train station for your day trip to Sintra.

Right next door to train station to Sintra and metro.

The location next to the famous Rossio Station (for trains to Sintra) is perfect for touring Lisbon.

The concierges were especially helpful with all types of arrangements including our excellent day trip to Sintra.

In addition, the location is perfect for walking all neighborhoods as well as hitting Rossio station for a trip to Sintra.

Booked this hotel for summer holiday with family, beautiful looking hotel with great location and very friendly servers, the room is old school classy with comfortability, there is a train station next door provide easy access to nearby town like Sintra

It is in walking distance to the historical center, just few meters away from Rossio train station (trip to Sintra) and has a nearby metro station.

The location is perfect to tour Lisbon and to take the train to Sintra.

The hotel location can not be beat, it is immediately next to Rossio station which is the main gateway to Sintra.

It’s directly next door to the Rossio train station that goes to Sintra and a 1 minute walk from the Hard Rock Café and Restauradores square which is where many of the tour companies begin their tours.

It was so convenient to have a five minute walk to our Sintra/Cascais tour departure area at the Hard Rock Cafe.

The location is fantastic and minutes away from everything, including the metro and the Train station if you are planning on visiting Sintra (highly recommended).

We booked a small group trip to Sintra and had a great time.

The concierge service was really good, and they arranged a very nice trip to Queluz, Sintra, Cabo da Roca and Cascais with a private driver.

The only minor negatives were the shower being on the small side and we had a couple days of missed turndown service.

The bad thing is the bathroom was so small and it's not advisable to open door widely because the toilet seat blocks it, a sliding door will be better option

but can’t recommend because of short-sighed corporate policy that requires that the totally unnecessary door in the tiny bathroom that is just always in the way (it HAS to be closed to sit on the toilet which means your significant other is trapped either in or out while you are sitting) HAS to remain in place and they would not remove it upon request even though there is already a door separating the bathroom from the bedroom in the small hall.

For a suite of that size, the bathroom was tiny, just filling some spare space between the two rooms.

Both times, they set up the kids' area in the cutest way, with tiny bathrobes and slippers for them!

It was joined by a dark corridor and had a tiny bathroom, with a shower that my husband could barely fit in.

The bathroom is small, Two people were hardly can use at same time.

It is a very old hotel so the rooms are small as are the bathrooms.

The bathrooms are small with limited shelf space.

Only real let down was the gym, just a couple of cardio machines in a small room.

Room was bight, however our standard room was a little small

Our room was a little small when you have 2 large suitcases and felt a bit cluttered.

The room was very small and so finding a place to put your luggage etc can be a. Challenge.

The table in the room was too small, so don’t plan on sitting and working while you on vacation 😊.

I was with a colleague and we booked 2 single rooms, the rooms were very small

I don't think rooms are 5 stars, a bit dated and our bathroom has a sewer gas smell for a few days.

My wife suffers from severe mold allergies.

but it is old so the rooms have that wet mildew smell.

but upstairs it’s musty and very dated.

There was a very bad sewage smell coming from the bathroom especially in the morning.

We left them in the room when we went out for the day around 10am and they came back around 4pm the same day, folded immaculately in a nice wicker basket and smelling fresh.

The sheets smelled dusty as if the bed had not been used in a while.

Well after that I must say the place was so dated and musty.

But it’s not cold cereal and stale pastries.

Only issue was a slightly musty smell - hotel staff advised and said would be looked into.

The shower/tub grout was covered with mildew.

but then I check out the night and I stumble across the lobby smelling of tobacco and the officials smoking it inside totally a lack of respect as I remember at check in saying it was forbidden .

The staff were attentive and friendly yet professional.

The staff went above and beyond in making our stay fabulous.

We had five glorious nights here and all the staff are amazing.

This hotel is very special, from the welcoming staff and professional service to the elegant decor and meticulous renovations preserving the antiquity with modern facilities.

The staff at the hotel were wonderful and went out of their way to ensure an enjoyable stay.

Everyone we met was friendly yet professional, and we were touched by the many small kindnesses we experienced during our stay.

The staff is very professional and helpful.

From the moment you enter the Hotel Avenida Palace you are welcomed by friendly very efficient staff who make your stay a pleasure.

The staff at the hotel were all very friendly and we had excellent service the entire stay.

Conceirge provided excellent recommendations for dinner.

This is a beautiful, all inclusive property with gorgeous views.

This 7 nights all-inclusive stay was the best trip ever!

The All Inclusive Live Aqua Beach Resort Cancun, absolutely fits into this category.

Hotel: Live Aqua Cancun: Ocean Front – Premium Room King Bed – all inclusive: 4.5 Stars!

The food is better than most all inclusive resorts and I have stayed at more than 20.

I would recommend several other all inclusive in the Cancun area,

Third night we went to MB which is their nicest of the all-inclusive restaurants.

Ala carte food was quit average for an all inclusive.

Live Aqua was an all inclusive and adult only resort.

The resort as a whole is everything you could want in an all inclusive resort.

There are too many all inclusive resorts that offer a higher quality across the board for any of these areas to be skimped on.

but this place does not feel like a typical all inclusive resort, more like a hotel with a very nice pool and beach.

The best food I've experienced at any all-inclusive
▪︎ Make the tipping culture clearer upon booking.

This hotel is the best all inclusive we have ever stayed in.

This resort also charges for normal amenities and is far from all inclusive.

This was an awesome and fun all-inclusive adult only resort.

This all-inclusive is awesome if you like low key grownup vibes.

One of the best all inclusive we have been to.

The atrium smelled
fantastic throughout which is always a fond memory for me.

Don't miss an excellent breakfast at Siete and request to sit in Jose's section.

The 6 restaurant selection and outside grilling food court gave many delicious choices no matter what meal you were eating.

Cesar (Buffet and NYE Host) 
Estephany (Front Desk)
Ricardo (server at Azur NYE)
Noe (supervisor) was so kind
Jonathan (supervisor) 
Aminael 
The director of operations, gentleman who was always walking around attentively and introduced us to Alfredo was so kind 
The cartoonist vendors (floor P)
Maria (Ino) cigar vendor (floor P)

If you need a trusted taxi driver that will treat you like family ask for Max Martinez when requesting a taxi in the lobby he is amazing!

The food was delicious (I did get an upset tummy troubles into day 5 and 6 -

At check-in you’re met with the same kind of sales pitch at a lot of the resorts where they’ll dangle a promotion of discounts during excursions for a breakfast sponsored by the hotel to try to get you to buy-in on timeshares.

Dorcas in Siete was a friendly face each morning when we came down to breakfast.

The breakfast spread was unforgettable, a staggering array of over 50 options, all cooked very well.

Other mentions for Elam at the towel hut, Alfredo at Azur (great place for breakfast with a view!

The buffet breakfast was top quality as were the Azur and MB restaurants.

The chefs preparing the fresh morning omelettes were amazing!

We also liked the breakfast buffet area, which has a different atmosphere during the evening when it opens as an evening restaurant, lunchtime burger/hot dog stall, the crepe stall, and the grill one and went to the Ozur restaurant overlooking the beach area.

David at Siete, who started our mornings off always having everything we needed at breakfast and Nelci making the best omelettes and eggs around.

Montse that is the host for the breakfast buffet is extremely bright, kind, and attentive.

The restaurants were all unique with inviting and warm settings with delicious fares.

Breakfast was topped off by Marco the amazing smoothie man!

Oscar, Mauricio and Marco at breakfast every day was a wonderful way to start every day which was always magical.

The breakfast selection at the buffet is similar each day with little culinary variety.

After we were shown the hotel & room I thought it was new construction instead of over four decades old.

-so remember how I had the con for the construction next store?

They put us in a room next directly next to a construction zone.

We were initially placed on the right side of the hotel near the construction of the new RIU hotel which was very noisy, so the hotel was flexible and put us on the other side with an ocean view, making our 6th anniversary truly special.

I requested to change the room due to a lot of noise from constructions.

While there was construction next door, I didn’t hear it once.

Construction site next door was a major eye sore.

Imagine our shock on entering our garden view room after checking in , the whole view from the balcony is a construction site , not the type of garden view I had in mind when I booked !!

Cons: resort is older and needs some updates/maintenance, not many daily activities at the resort, location is not very private (noisy construction next door).

A large hotel is under construction next door, creating an intermittent noise problem for the next few months.

The daily construction noise was terrible and continued til 1 and sometime 2 am in the morning.

I was ok with the room until the 1st morning when I woke up and there was a lot of construction going on next door.
