Last weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Lisbon in search of venues for some of my fabulous clients.
The amazing thing about the world of events is it really is greater than just booking a venue for a meeting or a party. I do not just google and book!
I like to visit the destination and learn about the city and culture and really understand what there is to offer and how we can create a memorable and serenity fuelled corporate or social event.
The venue has to fit the client as well as the clients brief, when hosting an event or incentive abroad the location has to work well with all other activities taking place on the trip.
I managed to not only find some amazing event spaces around the city that will work well for our clients; I also discovered & stayed in a hotel with an amazing location for all types of guests but especially those wanting to get around the city with ease.
Hotel White Lisboa, is a small hotel with 41 rooms and 4 suites in the centre of Lisbon offering guests stunning rooms, a great lounge breakfast buffet & lovely service from its staff. It also offers a Rooftop terrace with a swimming pool, free highspeed Wi-Fi in all areas and is walking distance so a mall and attractions.
The hotel ouzes comfort and has all the essentials you need as a tourist wanting to explore the city, a guest visiting the city for meetings or conferences and guests visiting for a social event over the weekend.
The metro & tram links are on the doorstep, along with the sweetest patisseries & coffee shops and a range of restaurants (the following blog will detail this, stay tuned!).
The hotel itself was super sleek, clean and has a very serenity feel to it. Ticking the cleanliness box is for sure more important than many other factors for me. The overall design from the foyer to the bedrooms was consistent, modern and pretty.
The bedrooms were very spacious and had all I needed. I stayed in a deluxe room where there were no balconies but a lovely city view. My favourite feature of the room was the TV and mirror display, which was something quiet unique. If you’re anything like me you’ll appreciate a practical bathroom layout with a shower rather than a bath tub. It had it all.
As I visited in January there was no need to use the rooftop pool but this area was still super clean so I can imagine it being a hit in the summer time.
The pricing of the hotel is very reasonable, especially for what they have to offer. To get the best rate and benefit from free early check in and late check out we recommend contacting the hotel direct via their website HERE and be sure to give them a follow on INSTAGRAM. Be sure to quote Serenity London on enquiry.
We would recommend this hotel to friends, family and clients. All the staff were lovely and a big thank you to Gonçalo and Hugo for your hospitality and helpfulness during our visit. We will be returning this summer for sure!
