Directly overlooking the Marquês de Pombal roundabout, the Fenix Lisboa is largely indistinguishable from the plethora of multi-storey hotels in this busy district. Although the Fenix caters predominantly for the business traveller, some good weekend deals can be had and it's central enough to be pretty handy.

Directly overlooking the Marquês de Pombal roundabout, the Fenix Lisboa is largely indistinguishable from the plethora of multi-storey hotels in this busy district. However, the Brazilian Fenix chain has invested several million in a two-year renovation project which they hope will raise the hotel into the up-market bracket.
Portuguese architect Massa Pina has worked wonders with the space; communal areas use a colour scheme of sobering grey with hints of oriental green and pink. It’s a relaxed environment that’s easy on the eye. Rooms are simple and straightforward, with all the obvious mod-cons.
The hotel is geared mainly towards business clients attending conferences on the premises. It is easily reached by road and metro, and is within walking-distance of the city’s top boutiques. A respectable all-rounder.
