La propiedad — Novotel

The Novotel Lisboa is a business-grade chain hotel in the upscale Entrecampos district, a 15-minute metro ride from the historic centre. Its lobby is functional and polished: a greyscale lounge with a bar, a business corner, and a staff speaking four languages. It suits conference-goers and families who want a reliable, soundproofed base near the airport and universities — not a romantic retreat.

Crónicas de Lisboa

Lisbon was founded by the Phoenicians, expanded by the Romans as Olisipo, and rebuilt after the catastrophic 1755 earthquake under the Marquis of Pombal's grid plan — the Baixa district. The 20th century brought the landmark 25 de Abril Bridge and Expo '98's riverside regeneration. Today it's a city of tiled facades, fado music, and a youth-driven tech and tourism scene, balancing its Moorish and Manueline past with a hipster present.

Guía completa de Lisboa →

Los mejores meses

May, June, September — warm (22–28°C) and dry, with fewer crowds than August. June's Santo António festival adds local colour without overwhelming streets.

Peak / Festival Surge

July–August: peak sun (30°C+) and Atlantic humidity, driving hotel rates up 30–50%. The NOS Alive music festival (early July) spikes demand further.

La temporada del hombro

March–April, October–November: milder 18–22°C, lower rates (often 40% off July prices), and still sunny enough for terraces. Fewer tourists, quieter trams.

Tiempo y embalaje

Lisbon's coastal microclimate often brings a cool Atlantic breeze even in July, dropping 10°C at night. Pack a light jacket or cardigan for the evening, plus sun cream and a good hat — sunburn is common on open terraces.

Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Lisboa

  • The Lisbon metro's Linha Verde (Cais do Sodré–Telheiras) is undergoing weekend closures through September for track upgrades — check the route to the Orient station if flying out.
  • A new cycle path along the Tejo riverfront opened in May 2026, linking Belém to the Parque das Nações — a safe, scenic alternative to the 28 tram for daytime sightseeing.
  • The city council has introduced a €2.50 nightly tourist tax per person, applied at check-in — the Novotel will add it to your bill.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Novotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Rooms on floors 5 through 8, facing the inner courtyard or side streets away from Avenida José Malhoa. These floors sit above typical street-level noise but below the roof, and the courtyard side is much quieter than the avenue front.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Rooms on floors 1-3 facing Avenida José Malhoa. The avenue carries steady Lisbon traffic, and lower floors pick up bus and taxi rumble. Also avoid rooms near the lift core on any floor (end-of-corridor rooms are quieter).

🪟

Best views

Rooms facing southeast or east get morning sun and a view over the city rooftops toward Parque Eduardo VII. Avoid the direct Avenida José Malhoa frontage for views: it's a wide, busy road with office blocks, not a scenic outlook.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 5-8, especially on the courtyard side. These are high enough to lose ground noise but not near any roof equipment or bar terrace (if present).

🔊 Noise notes

Avenida José Malhoa is a major Lisbon artery with buses, taxis, and emergency vehicles. The hotel sits near a junction, so sirens can carry. Weekend evenings may have restaurant/bar spillover from nearby streets. The lift core produces a low hum; request a room well away from it.

Insider tips

1) Request a room on floor 6 or 7, inner courtyard side, and double-check at check-in. 2) For parking, the hotel has an underground garage; ask for a space when booking—street parking is scarce and expensive. 3) The nearest Metro (São Sebastião) is a 5-minute walk, so you can skip taxis for most sightseeing.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
