This small Hotel is very well placed, close to Bullfight Arena, close Lisbon centre and a few minutes walk Metro and buses.
Rooms are no so big but are clean, with TV, air conditioned, confortable bed. Bathroom was very clean. Nice breakfest. Very friendly staff. If you are looking for a not expensive Hotel with confort and sleep well, so I think this Hotel is a great option choice.

I have just stayed here for 4 nights, on the strength of the revues on here, and the fact that it is the one of the cheapest places to get an en suite room in Lisboa. I can only back up what has already been said. The hotel is on a quiet street in very nice, shall we say middle class area of central Lisboa. Very handy for the metro. Campo Pequeno, Saldanha, and Sao Sebestiao stations are all within walking distance. There is a Lidl, supermarket opposite, and a Pingo Doce supermarket just up the road, to keep you supplied with all the little things you may need. There are also plenty of restaurants, street cafes, and pastelarias in the area too.
Rooms are small and basic, but very clean and had enough wardrobe and draw space to put all your stuff to keep me satisfied. Staff seem friendly enough. Breakfast is just your basic Portuguese buffet style affair. there is also a little patio area and garden round the back.

Bad points. Maybe it was just bad luck with the room i was in. But the occupied room above me had the creakiest floorboards ever and you heard every little movement. Breakfasts could have been made better if i could have found some cold or at least room temperature milk for the cereals, and surely a toaster wouldnt be too much to ask for, at what i am sure is one of the best Residencials in Lisboa .

I was in this small hotel in May 2010 when I was in Lisbon to go to the Rock in Rio concerts.
The rooms were nice, quite big and very clean. The breakfast was simple but adequate.
The location was good, close to cafes, restaurants and supermarkets. Is housed in a very nice neighborhood of Lisbon. It is still very close to El Corte Ingles and the metro.
Very nice!

Residencial Italia Hotel is a small hotel in a rather quiet neighbourhood somewhat out of the city centre. The next bus stop is about five minutes away, to the next metro stations (São Sebastião (blue line) and Campo Pequeno (yellow line)) it takes about the same time, which give excellent connections to both the airport (appr. 30min) and the city centre (appr. 15min) . In its surroundings there are several small shops, restaurants, cafés, and supermarkets so that you do not need to go to the city centre if you do not want to.
The whole hotel seems to have been renovated within the last few years, everything is fresh and very clean. The rooms are small, basic, but very functional and the furniture in a good quality. Depending on the purpose of your trip, the "inner" rooms of the hotel, of which there are four on each floor, might be a negative point. My room e.g. had its window to a larger ventilation shaft only, which made it very dark. Since I was out quite early in the morning and came back rather late at night this was not a problem for me. If you plan to stay somewhat longer in your room during daytime, it might be a good idea to specifically ask for one of the rooms facing the very large and nice backyard or the street.
In the price included was a rich breakfast buffet consisting of cornflakes, chokoflakes, milk, coffee, tea, juices, different breads and rolls, cheese, goat cheese, ham, different kinds of jam, and fruits, which was diligently refilled.
One distinguishing characteristic was the uniformly friendly and helpful staff, who made you feel very welcome.
