Hotel Acta Moa- New Opening
Hotel is clean, well designed, and is close to the airport but it’s certainly more in a local neighborhood and not near a lot of things to do. Also the restaurant on site was not welcoming, and we ended up leaving. The hotel was cute and served its purpose but I wouldn’t recommend spending a lot ...

We had an absolutely excellent stay at the Meliã - the staff were so kind and helpful, the restaurant and bar are our happy places every time we fly in and out of LIS, and we were given a room upgrade unasked. Simply a brilliant stay and we will be back! Obrigada e até próxima.
