Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Editory Riverside Hotel enjoys an amazing location, with the Santa Apollonia train station and subway conveniently next door, making it easy to get around, including day trips to Sintra. Guests appreciate the beautifully renovated, historic building with its modern and clean rooms, and some have particularly enjoyed the river views. While the rooms are generally spacious, some guests have found the bathrooms to be on the smaller side. Overall, the hotel's concept and convenient location stand out.

The hotel had a great location for travelers. It was easy getting there from the airport because the train takes you straight to the hotel. High ceilings was fabulous. Service were kind. Breakfast had a great choice of items from the buffet.

The staff seemed rude. I had to ask several times for simple things.

riverside stay, genuinely grateful

riverside view art deco style easy transportation

i'm really thankful for the riverside view from my room. the art deco style added to the charm. the metro and train station access made transportation easy. the hotel provided soundproofing, rare to find.

the shower wasn't very clean. the layout, with the shower separate from the toilet and sink, felt a little awkward. i also noticed a drain smell in the reception area sometimes.

the hotel connects directly to the train station. buses outside the station travel to the centre and museums. there is a bar with armchairs and a riverside view.

the hotel is part of historic santa apolonia railway station. this location allows easy transport links to the airport by metro. metro and rail provide access to other stations. i am grateful for how easy it was to travel around.
