Well it s true, I been away for a while, and the blog has been kept frozen and I m sorry for that. But a recent comment from rika asking information about the Novotel cheap airline flight Lisboa hotel , has prompted me to write a new post. So here it goes, hope you enjoyed it and for rika, I hope that it turns out useful.
Novotel Lisboa is an  hotel located in the José Malhoa street, between the Sete Rios area (where you can find the city Zoo) and the Praça de Espanha. This area has a lot of hotels of bank headquarters, and it s a quite modern part of the city, with high and modern buildings. Still it s a nice place to stay, with great transportation to get to and from the airport, to Sintra or to Lisbon downtown cheap airline flight area.
The hotel has a good access to public transportation. The street where the hotel is located is only served by buses (Carris), but you have a train station close by (Sete Rios) and two subway stations at the each end on the street (Jardim Zoologico and Praça de Espanha). The Sete Rios train station provides direct trains to Sintra, the south margin of the Tagus river or Oriente, from where you can take long course trains to the North of the country.
Downtown – You can get to downtown using the subway. Take the blue line in Jardim Zoologico or Praça de Espanha, taking the Baixa-Chiado cheap airline flight direction and exiting the subway in the station with the same name. If you share my opinion and prefer to avoid subways (sorry but dirty underground cheap airline flight walls are not my scene), you can take the 205 bus (Cais do Sodré direction)  and exit on the Rossio square.You have to take that bus on Av. Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro, which is a parallel to the José Malhoa one.
On a short walking distance you can find the Twin Tower shopping center, which is not a big place to shop but it s close by. Also very close, you can find the El Corte Ingles shopping. Close by you also have the Zoo (Sete Rios direction) and the Caloust Gulbenkian museum, one of Lisbon finest art collections (close cheap airline flight to Praça de Espanha). On the José Malhoa street you can also find the Mesquita de Lisboa, the principal muslim temple in Lisbon.
Yes. The only downside of this location is that it is not on the downtown area, which is more touristic and has a more lively nightlife, specially after dinner time. Still, using the bus, subway or even a taxi can take you from a place to the other in less than 20 minutes.
