Advantages: A Vibrant City with a Cosmopolitan Atmosphere Disadvantages: A bit hilly for some
Lisbon or Lisboa is the capital of Portugal and enjoys a marvellous position. To the northeast of the city the River Tagus opens out to form the shining Mar de Palha (sea of straw). The city stands on the northwest bank of this lake just before it narrows and flows out into the Atlantic Ocean. For miles and miles, homes, factories, warehouses and port installations carpet the steep hills and valleys along the estuary. Lisbon is sometimes called the Cidade Branca, the White City but actually its colour is really a matt pastel shade. The best view of the city can be enjoyed from one of the many excellent fish restaurants in Cacilhas on the south bank of the river. Between Alfama (see my review), the labyrinth of narrow alleys on the citadel hill, and the elevated Bairro Alto, lies the flat plain of the city centre, the Cidade Baixa ...
Advantages: Central Location, Transportation Links, Shopping District, Old Town Disadvantages: Lift-better use the stairs
Residencial Astoria is a traditional building, admist a road of charm and history. The employers are very welcoming, and always have a smile on their face, as you see them. This makes you feel right at home, as they like to suit your every need. If you are unsure of the area, than feel free to ask at Reception as they will provide you with excellent help, and point you to the leaflets on their entrance. There is a Bureau Du Change about a couple of blocks from the hotel, which is very handy. Make sure to ask at reception for the address, before you decide to go down there.
I stayed at the Hotel, back in 2006 on a trip part of University. At the time, there were quite a large group of us, and the room door were transparent, as trying to get to sleep was a mission, as I could hear every noise out the door. Young people, having fun out ...
Advantages: Reasonably priced, lots to do, good food, great architecture Disadvantages: Not really any
We visited Lisbon this September having decided to go there instead of Rome. It has to be said that we were initially motivated by the fact that an equivalent holiday- same number of days, same rating of accommodation- was about HALF the price of Rome.
Lisbon is a fascinating place, the overall impression being of a city of great style and architecture, the ancient (colossal old buildings, grubby but striking statues and monuments) rubbing shoulders with the modern (great trains and tube, some flashy restaurants). It may be because of this that it took a little getting used to.
We arrived on the Saturday evening- admittedly a little late following various delays with the flight and then the bus, which became stuck in rush hour traffic- at our hotel, the Travel Pak in the Anjos area of the city. We ventured out to see if we could ...
