Best hotels - Where to stay in Lisbon, Portugal ?
Sana Lisboa Hotel

Hotel is conveniently situated next to the largest roundabouts in Lisbon. There's the main avenue right down the hotel, good for shopping or going out. The hop on / hop off bus start is also very close to hotel, so it is great for sightseeing. No issue to get a taxi anytime. There was a great piano player at the bar during my stay, it was very nice to chill at the bar. Finger food choice there is very limited, but wine selection is great. Right next to the top of the main city avenue, next to a metro station, and at walking distance of all you might need. Breakfasts are complete and tasty, and an underground restaurant provides some local dishes.

Hard Rock Cafe Lisboa
I liked the world famous hard rock cafe burgers, which are always delightful. The decoration is very good, music and live concerts worth the trip. Better to book in advance, the place was full when we arrived without reservation, and we waited about half an hour at the bar.
La Paparrucha

We had some great steaks in this Argentinian restaurant, with an amazing view on the city. Better to book a table in advance, as only a limited amount of tables are next to the window.
