8 Amazing Pitstops for Your European Travels
2. Lisbon
The 18th century Aqueduct, the beautiful Monsanto Natural Park and Gulbenkian Museum are three magnets for tourists visiting Portugal’s capital city, but there are so many others; it’s Fado singers, Belem Tower on the River Tagus and the Jeronimos monastery nearby, while no visit is complete without a taste of their custard tarts, known as Pastel de nata.
Corinthia Hotel Lisbon offers a tranquil respite from downtown. Just a few stops away from the hustle and bustle and just 7km from the airport, it has over 500 rooms including 20+ executive suites, al fresco eating at the Terrace Restaurant and a fusion of Portuguese and contemporary Mediterranean fare at Sete Colinas and Tipico restaurants. There is an Executive Lounge and a Conference Centre offering capacity for up to 1,400 delegates and an extensive and luxurious Spa and Wellness Club* spread over 3,500 square metres for when business is finished.
*Voted Portugal’s Best Hotel Spa at the 3rd annual World Spa Awards in December 2017.
