The Bar/Lounge at Bairro Alto Hotel

"Best of all is the rooftop bar where you can sip a mojito in your chaise longue, relax to the music, and enjoy the best views in the city"

"The street-level Portuguese-contemporary restaurant and the airy bar overlooking the square have become clubhouse central for Lisbon's scene-makers"

"The terrace and cafe bar are pleasant places to have a drink"

"There’s a nice restaurant serving local cuisine, a cocktail bar that's great for a nightcap, and conveniences such as a business center and massages"

"The Flores restaurant serves Portuguese cuisine, while Cafe-Bar BA, with its geometric stained glass windows, has live music and light fare"

"Rooms and communal areas still have a period feel – the lift takes a deep breath before rattling up its six floors – but modern touches appear in the form of DVDs in rooms, a rooftop café and a swish split-level bar full of comfy cushions"

"There’s a small but well-equipped fitness center on the 5th floor, and a delicious and desperately romantic terrace with stunning view over the Taugus on the 6th floor, plus a groovy three-level bar just off the lobby with a pumpin’ jumpin’ DJ who spins tunes from Lisbon to Maputo, Rio and beyond"

"The downstairs cafe-bar has a separate entrance, and attracts a buzzy crowd of artfully-bearded young men and sharply-coiffured young ladies"

"Visit the bar on the rooftop; it is one of the best spots for a drink with a view"

"On the fringes of the Bairro Alto neighbourhood, with its cobbled lanes and lively bars, this cool, stylish Lisbon hotel combines period and modern features and offers an excellent dining experience in its ground-floor Flores Restaurant"
