Lagoas Park Oeiras Hotel + Centro colombo

 

When the guys had a one day school in Lisbon, us wives decided to join them on the trip up and hang out at the Colombo Mall in Lisbon. 

We stayed at a hotel called Lagoas Park in Oeiras, Porto Salvo.

Lagoas Park Oeiras Review

I thought Lagoas Park Hotel was really nice. It's a well known corporate hotel on the outskirts of Lisbon and a fairly quick uber ride to wherever you'd want to go. While our mornings were entirely too rushed to get proper pictures, we felt this hotel had a solid breakfast!

​Breakfast was included in our booking rate, which was around 200 USD inclusive. 

The public restroom in the lobby is beautiful with wood and marble finishings.

In the lobby you can also find the hotel bar as seen below.

Just behind the bar is the seating area for the restaurant.

Hotel Restaurant Review

We did dine in the restaurant with our friends one evening. I ordered a nice fish dish which came with a side of mixed vegetables and some potatoes. Fish in Portugal is always delicious and fresh since the country is blessed to have access to so much coastline! The food was good and as one would expect, this is a light meal with a corporate hotel price tag. ;)

​When you get off the elevators to head to your room you will see these nice sitting areas  overlooking the lobby. The chairs are comfortable, with side tables, and there is nice lighting from the floor to ceiling glass entry of the hotel.

Room Tour

​Here is a quick photo tour of our room at Lagoas Park Hotel. 

The bathroom is spacious and they do provide the standard amenities. You'll notice on the second photo that a bidet is available at this hotel. In case you want to wash and dry your feet.

...lol. Just kidding. :p

The room is a bit on the dark side with the color scheme and lighting style, which isn't necessarily my favorite aesthetic.

Queen Room Lagoas Park Hotel

Our room had a large flatscreen TV and closets for hanging clothes as well as a full length mirror right across from the bathroom door. Some of our friends were joking that it was the last place they wanted a mirror after they got out of the shower. haha. 

Jokes aside, I always appreciate a full length mirror in a hotel room.

​100 Gramas

We ordered Uber Eats the night we arrived as we were too tired to go out anywhere. There was a Buy one get one free promo for a restaurant called 100 Gramas. We ordered Prego Maminha Maturada  which is a sandwich of thin steaks and the bread is slathered with garlic butter. We got one side of batata frites (French fries) and one side of feijão (beans). 

The total for 2 sandwiches, an order of fries, an order of beans, and a coca-cola was 18.74€ including service fee, delivery fee, bag fee etc. While the pictures are not impressive due to the dim room and takeout boxes, the food was good! It was good for the price we paid. But if we had paid full price of 41.74€ it may have been a different story. lol!

centro colombo

True to stereotype, the ladies spent the day wandering around the mall. I honestly don't care for mall days that much. There's nothing I really need to buy and the lights are too bright for anyone migraine-prone, but the company was top notch. 

I took a few of the most random pictures that day starting with these women's button down linen shirts.

Nespresso Store

Our Portuguese friend educated us about visiting the Nespresso store for a free coffee. You actually take a ticket when you go in and when an associate is available they can give you a sample of any kind of Nespresso pod you would like to try. Afterwards you can buy a package of your preferred pod, if you'd like, of course!

Serra da Estrela

There were many choices in the food court but I landed on Serra da Estrela and ordered a plate of Arroz do Pato (duck rice)  and the fresh pineapple and mint juice.

I was so fascinated by this art display of candy machines that I felt compelled to snap this crooked picture to remember it. 

Art Display at Colombo Mall

For my final memory of Colombo Mall in lisbon, I leave you with this bathroom sign which I found amusing. It's asking if you knew that with the toilet lid open you can be projecting "particles".  They implore toilet guests to pleaseeee close the lid before flushing. 

It makes you wonder what atrocities have been seen in there? On second thought.. scratch that thought.

The Kitchen

We had a very long bus ride from Lisbon. We were starving and found another buy one get one free deal on Uber for a place called The Kitchen in Quarteira. 

These 2 Gulosa pizzas cost 13.20€ in total after discounts. Not too shabby. 

I hope you have enjoyed this very random combo hotel review post / mall day / uber eats review post.
