EXE Liberdade
Nous logions au 7e étage, lorsque j’ai ouvert la fenêtre, il n’y avait pas de balcon ni de barreaux pour se protéger. Somnambule, tu ouvres la fenêtre et tu descends 7 étages. Très dangereux.

Very nice hotel with everything you would want for your stay. Breakfast had a lot of variety. Lunch from the bar menu was delicious also. Great location. Train station is a 15 minute walk. Uber is abundant and reasonably priced also. Will stay again.

Hotel Star Inn Lisbon Aeroporto
The buffet breakfast was excellent! The beds were good. We arrived in Lisbon at midnight and this hotel was a short walk from the arrival terminal. A great place to sleep off the jet lag and refuel for the next day ahead.
