Scene
Modern, minimal boutique popular with couples
In a curved, corner
building, the Olissippo Saldanha hotel is an upscale property located in a modern building with seven
floors. Just inside the glass doors is a sleek, black front desk in front of a
black and gold backdrop. Floors have different themes including a river theme, a city theme with photographs of the city, and a poetry theme with poetry excerpts
on the carpeting. The breakfast buffet is served in a charming space with striking
carpeting, polka dot chairs, a large mirror with an antique-style frame, and black-and-white photos hanging on the wall. Guests, most of whom are couples, can order drinks and light meals in the small bar
area with modern bar stools, a wall-mounted TV, and club chairs positioned
around round, wooden tables. Potted palms add a little greenery to the space while white, floor-length curtains hang over the windows that wrap around the room.
Location
In a residential neighborhood with shops and restaurants
Olissippo Saldanha is located in a quiet, residential
neighborhood. There’s a metro station within a two-minute walk of the hotel putting
the airport within a 35-minute commute on public transportation. There are
plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The hotel is within a short walk of the
University of Lisbon’s School of Engineering, and there’s a bullring within a
15-minute walk. It’s around a 12-minute drive to the Bairro Alto, a picturesque
neighborhood with plenty of nightlife and popular restaurants. It's around a 20-minute walk to the top of Avenida da Liberdade, Lisbon's main artery. While the neighborhood is peaceful and there are restaurants nearby, it isn't the most convenient for sightseeing.
Rooms
Modern rooms with spacious bathrooms and free Wi-Fi
