The location of this 168-room, upscale Wyndham chain is convenient for an early flight, a layover, or even as a base for exploring the city (a 25-minute bus ride away). It’s within walking distance of the Lisbon Portela Airport and also offers a free shuttle, though it only runs in the morning and evening. The hotel has a striking modern design with an aviation theme, including runway carpet in the lobby. This trendy design extends to the rooms, where bathrooms are separated from the bedroom areas by a curtain, which doesn’t provide a high amount of privacy. A spa and an outdoor pool add to the luxurious feel of the hotel, adding value to its reasonable rates.

The 119-room Hotel Expo Astoria is an artsy three-pearl property located by the Marquis of Pombal Square subway station. Contemporary rooms have minibars and small flat-screen TVs, and some also have city views. However, the minimalist designs and dim lighting don't suit everyone. The on-site restaurant serves breakfast and can get busy and there's also a bar with a trendy lounge. Other features include an artistically decorated business center with two computers. This hotel is an affordable three-pearl pick, but those looking for a spot with more common areas to lounge may want to compare rates at the Hotel Gat Rossio.

Hotel do Chiado is an upscale 39-room hotel on the historic cobblestoned streets of Baixa, with a restaurant and bar terrace overlooking the Tagus River and Castelo de Sao Jorge. While convenient, its central location is busy, and some of the rooms get street noise. Rooms have safes, minibars, and flat-screen TVs, but there aren’t any coffeemakers. All feature attractive, streamlined decor and some have terraces. Limited parking is available on-site and there's a small meeting room that can seat up to eight people. Visitors may want to compare rates at the Altis Belem Hotel and Spa, which has more amenities.

The 96-room Hotel Miraparque is a modern, upper-mid-range property with affordable rates and a slightly fringe location beside Eduardo VII Park. Fortunately, it does have close access to the Parque subway station that’s 15 minutes from the city center. Modern rooms and suites -- with some dated features -- offer minibars, flat-screen TVs, safes, and park views. A small, stylish restaurant and bar are on-site, along with a meeting room. Common areas here are limited compared to what's offered at the old-fashioned Hotel Eduardo VII, and the overall look isn't quite as trendy as the style at Hotel Expo Astoria.

Residencial Florescente is a mid-range hotel within walking distance of plenty of restaurants and bars as well as a metro station. The location is a block from Av. Liberdade, a busy street known for high-end shopping. The 68 rooms have flat-screen TVs and decor ranges quite a bit; some units are more modern than others. There’s a Portuguese restaurant on-site with a bar, and a breakfast buffet is included in room rates. Travelers looking for more intimate (and modern) accommodations could try the Ribeira Tejo Boutique Guesthouse.

This 86-room hotel, part of a small European chain, is geared toward business travelers and is well priced for its central location, which is a short subway ride to the historic part of Lisbon. Upscale and sleek, it has a modern design that’s not overly trendy, a good restaurant that serves a buffet breakfast, and a large bar. Guest rooms are stylish and clean with minibars and modern bathrooms. On the downside, thin walls separate the rooms, and the tiny gym seems like an afterthought. Overall, the Zenit is a good combination of price and location. But travelers looking to be smack in the center of Lisbon could try NH Liberdade, right on Avenida da Liberdade.

The House is an eight-room boutique B&B offering a home-like experience in a residential part of Lisbon. Rooms are modern and chic, but their amenities vary and only some have TVs. Two have bathrooms across the hall and one has a bathroom without a full door separating it from the sleeping area. A tasty breakfast with eggs made to order is included in room rates. There’s also a big outdoor terrace with river and city views, and in inclement weather the views can still be taken in from the living room. Guests wanting to stay nearer to the action of the city may want to check out the Lisbon Short Stay Apartments Baixa, a vibrant hotel with funky decor and a convenient location near shops and restaurants.

In a former palace dating back to the 17th century, the 12-room Palacio Ramalhete AL is a charming, upscale bed-and-breakfast with lots of character. The inn has three lovely outdoor patio areas with greenery, tables, and chairs where guests can enjoy the buffet breakfast or lounge throughout the day, weather permitting. There are more features than one may expect from such a small property, including a heated outdoor pool and a cozy, rustic bar. Rooms are elegant and have been beautifully restored; some feature original tile work and river views. The only significant downside to the inn is its slightly out-of-the-way location; it’s near the Museum of Ancient Art and the Tagus River, but a 20-minute walk from the lively Bairro Alto area. LX Boutique Hotel is an upscale hotel that's 10 minutes closer to the action, but it lacks the pool found here.

The historic Solar Do Castelo is different than any other hotel in Lisbon. The rooms are quaint (if not luxurious), and the breakfast buffet offers a ton of options for hungry guests. But the real reason tourists stay at this hotel is the location; not only is it convenient to numerous sights and neighborhoods in the city, but it is the only hotel within the walls of the medieval village surrounding St. George's Castle. It's quiet, and rich in history -- the hotel has preserved a large part of the architecture, as well as adding a small museum of artifacts off of the lobby. And a real highlight is the outdoor terrace, where peacocks congregate. None of the 14 rooms are decorated the same, and some feel more upscale than others. But all offer free Wi-Fi and plenty of charm.
