Most hotels in Lisbon are well-furnished and some even come with excessive luxury but that’s not the point. If you visit Lisbon on a business trip or just on vacations, you should consider one major thing – convenience, especially if you are planning to stay for more than three or four days there. Luxury without convenience is the same as beauty with an “evil” soul. Try to find a harmony within both of them, and that’s when your vacation in Lisbon will be memorable and without stressful moments.
The choice of hotels is quite large in the Portuguese capital. Avenida da Liberdade is one of the most famous hotel locations. If you would love to find something far from the city center and all the corresponding noise, then you might want to consider peaceful Britania Hotel. But if you would love to stay in the historical part of Lisbon, which despite that is presently also a number one address for Lisbon shopping as well as dining in some of the best restaurants, then you should look no further. Just book a room at Bairro Alto Hotel, and you will get an all-in one gift box.
Bairro Alto Hotel is a 5-star hotel located in the renowned districts of Bairro Alto and Chiado. The hotel includes 55 rooms classified in six categories. It offers 24-hour room and concierge services, pillow menu, laundry and dry cleaning, rent-a-car service, international and national newspapers, valet parking and babysitting. Irrespective of their category, all rooms have i-Station for iPod, iPhone and iPad, free cable Internet, air conditioning, hair and towel dryers, telephones, a minibar, a safe and so on.
Worth appreciation is the fact that the hotel has a restaurant, a café-bar and a terrace located on the last floor. The restaurant opens at 7 am and closes at 11 pm. A full lunch at the restaurant will cost 18.50 Euros. The restaurant has a traditional but elegant design. It’s one of the best places to have a family dinner or a group lunch upon your travel to Lisbon. The restaurant serves various meals and foods, but most importantly delicious and typical Portuguese foods.
The café-bar is more suitable for light meals and drinks. It’s where you will be offered a wide choice of sandwiches and toasts. The café-bar is a best choice for those people who don’t love repetition, as unlike most Lisbon clubs and bars, this café-bar has its musical agenda changed every day. It’s open until 1 am every day.
The terrace is perhaps the priciest of all the hotel’s hang-out options, but it’s absolutely worth it. With the view it has, it is a number one place to visit in Lisbon as it opens to the entire city, including its most popular attractions. Visitors of the terrace are offered to enjoy some really good music as well as have a snack and a drink. The terrace is open until 10 pm in winter and 1 am in summer.
The hotel is ideal for organizing business meetings as well. Its main meeting room is located on the fifth floor and can accommodate up to 35 people. It is equipped with DVD, LCD, screen and flipchart, and has separate restrooms for men and women.
