I've been to a few lounges and this isn't really one to complain about. The seating was more than adequate; certainly more comfortable than the airport chairs.

The food was fine. There were at least 10 different sandwiches to choose from around lunch time. They even included a smoked salmon one that I wouldn't expect from an airport lounge.

Plenty of alcoholic drinks, juices, water etc to choose from and some other snacks like chips, cookies, and crackers.

Showers are available for free if you have your own towel and soap. Otherwise it's a pretty steep 15 Euros just for the towel and soap.

If you have complimentary access to the lounge, this is probably the best one in Lisbon's airport.

Realizing most higher end restaurants in Lisbon are closed on Christmas, we were delighted to find Rossio, on the 7th floor welcoming use for dinner that night. Exquisite service, beautiful view and amazingly well prepared and presented food.

We shared a few small plates including gyoza and a spinach salad and of course, some fine wines.

The most impressive thing of all, was the service. The gentlemen who waited on us were there to make us welcome and comfortable. I mentioned to the waiter that I was grateful he was there on Christmas and he said, "we are glad to be here for you" and "…Read more Realizing most higher end restaurants in Lisbon are closed on Christmas, we were delighted to find Rossio, on the 7th floor welcoming use for dinner that night.

The most impressive thing of all, was the service. The gentlemen who waited on us were there to make us welcome and comfortable. I mentioned to the waiter that I was grateful he was there on Christmas and he said, "we are glad to be here for you" and " I have a wonderful job". So many places would want to turn the table but they had an entirely different approach. For that I am very grateful.

I'm so sorry I didn't note his name in the review.

Next time we stay in Lisbon, we will stay at this wonderful example of a hotel and most certainly dine here again.

To the two gentlemen who served us that evening, Feliz Ano Novo and thank you again!
