Perched on a hill overlooking the city, Corinthia Lisbon is a bit removed from the action. But its location also makes it a tranquil place to stay in Lisbon. Relish in the solitude by gazing at views of the 18th-century Aguas Livres Aqueduct and Eduardo VII Park from the upper floors of the hotel.
Though it’s also in the financial district, making it a convenient base for business travelers as well.
But the Corinthia provides enough amenities to cater to both leisure and business travelers. There’s a 32,000-square-foot, 13-treatment-room spa; breakfast spot Sete Colinas; and Mediterranean and international restaurant Típico.
When you need a dose of sunshine, retreat to the Terrace Lounge. Amid gardens, kick back in comfortable cushioned chairs with a caipirinha and enjoy the quiet.
