Company WebsiteCampo Pequeno Shopping Centre, metro, airport bus and bus station, all are 3-5min away. We used the Aerobus tickets on all other public transport that day. On the left side of the shopping centre there is a sightseeing bus stop.
It is a great hotel with very nice and helpful stuff. A great location in the centre of Lisbon. Great gym and nice breakfast!
Getaway Report

Lisbon boasts a vibrant mix of historic relics and contemporary bars, and streets lined with majestic Gothic architecture and eclectic cafes. The city experience is one of the many facets to the area, others comprising the seaside, national heritage sights, and the odd surprise festival.

The Hotel
A slick build that melds comfort with minimalist style, the five star VIP Grand Lisboa Hotel & Spa stands tall close to Lisbon's historic centre. Housing a spa and wellness centre as well as three restaurants, the hotel proffers guests a whole bagful of leisure facilities. The range of cuisines served in the Fusao eatery includes Japanese dishes, while the ergonomic chairs and monochrome patterns of the Press Club Bar provide an ambient environment in which to sup on cocktails.
The Stay
Standard double rooms are luxuriously designed along the same lines as the rest of the hotel and feature aquarium-style bathtubs and panoramic views. Guests might flick through cable channels on the plasma screen TV for easy in-room entertainment or don a dressing gown for soft-coated lounging. Other amenities come in the form of a minibar, phone, and internet access.
Groupon Recommends
Lisbon's Belem Tower is a UNESCO World Heritage monument that once guarded the city's harbour. Its late Gothic Manueline style is seen by many as an architectural symbol of Portugal's Age of Discovery, and is flanked by Moorish watchtowers and stone-sculpted beasts. The Berado Museum down the road provides a home for some of the world's most famous modern art pieces, including works by 20th century masters such as Pollock, Picasso, and Warhol. More vigorous activity can be had with a trip to the Sintra region of the city, where walking trails traverse the coastal forests of this natural park.
Groupon Top Tip
Lisbon is home to two of Portugal's major football stadiums, Estadio Jose Alvalade and Estadio da Luz. Check local listings to find out when you can experience the beautiful game in fully-fledged Lisboa style.
