Meliá Lisboa Aeroporto
This is a very convenient location if you want to stay close to the Lisbon airport. You can easily walk to and from hotel and if you don’t want to walk you can take the shuttle. They have a great breakfast included too. The rooms are clean if not a little dark and the washroom and shower are small ...

Hotel Star Inn Lisbon Aeroporto
It was ok for the limited time I was there. There was a strong smell I wasn’t a fan of. It was strange not having a separate bathroom. The staff were friendly and it was easy to check in and out.
