A fully equipped business center with co-working spaces, call pods and smart technology (WiFi 6), caters ideally to the 'mobile office' generation coming to Lisbon for both short, and extended stays.
Sustainably designed, the building's architecture was commissioned by world-famous Portuguese architect, Eduardo Capinha Lopes who erected a modern green façade in a prime position in the Park of Nations. Well-conceived green areas and expansive terrace gardens have been planted with olive trees, while the abundance of greenery and light throughout the property, aims to amplify the feeling of space, while improving the building's thermal performance, protecting it from heat, reducing energy consumption and noise pollution.
A nod to the creative local art scene, guests will find iconic pieces throughout the property by some of Portugal's top artists. Large scale trash art installations created by leading street artist Bordalo II can be spotted in the restaurant and in the lobby and evoke a strong message around the importance of preserving nature, while colorful, playful murals have been created by Kruella D'Enfer - a renowned Portuguese visual artist and illustrator. Additionally, internationally acclaimed contemporary artist, Graça Paz brings a pop of color to the apartments with her unique geometric prints.
The hotel's prime location in the contemporary, riverside neighborhood of the Park of Nations - set in the new northeast part of Lisbon, and built for the 1998 Expo, is today known for its avant-garde architecture, dynamic restaurants and bars, riverside walks, street art displays, and is home to some of the city's top family attractions, including the Oceanarium, the Science Museum and the panoramic Cable Car (Telecabine Lisboa).
