A stay at ME Lisbon ensures that every family member, from toddlers to grandparents, enjoys a warm and welcoming stay.
Perfectly positioned for family fun
ME Lisbon’s prime location in Marquês do Pombal places your family at the heart of all the action. One of the highlights for families staying here is easy access to Parque Eduardo VII, a sprawling green space perfect for picnics, leisurely strolls, or letting the little ones blow off some steam. The park’s well-maintained pathways and gardens are ideal for morning walks or an afternoon exploring the playgrounds.
The hotel is also a stone’s throw from Avenida da Liberdade, an energetic and sophisticated area lined with shops, cafés, and cultural landmarks. The Oceanarium, a family-favourite attraction, is easy to reach from the hotel, making this location even more convenient for parents. Whether your plan is an educational day trip or an escape into nature, ME Lisbon is perfectly placed to make life hassle-free.
A rooftop pool everyone will love
Few things delight kids (and parents!) more than a beautiful rooftop pool. The 13th-floor pool at ME Lisbon is a standout feature where families can come together and soak up the Portuguese sunshine. This oasis not only offers stunning views of Lisbon’s skyline but also creates a safe, relaxing atmosphere for quality family time.
Parents can lounge poolside with a cocktail from the rooftop bar, while kids enjoy swimming and splashing around. The rooftop also transforms into the ideal spot to wind down in the evening, perhaps with the whole family gathered to watch the sunset over this magical city.
Dining options that delight all ages
Finding good meal options as a family can sometimes feel like a challenging task - but not at ME Lisbon. With its range of on-site restaurants, the hotel ensures everyone leaves the table satisfied. From the Mediterranean-inspired dishes at Fismuler to relaxed sharing platters at Attiko, there’s something to tantalise every palate. Plus, kid-friendly options and healthy menu items make dining enjoyable and worry-free for parents.
The hotel’s culinary offerings also emphasise high-quality, fresh, and artisanal ingredients, so even the pickiest eaters will find new favourites. Elia Bar’s light bites and signature mocktails are perfect for younger family members, while parents might enjoy exploring the diverse Portuguese wine selection.
Rest and recharge with wellness options for parents
Travelling with kids is rewarding but can also be tiring. That’s why ME Lisbon ensures its spa and wellness facilities offer parents a chance to relax and recharge. The KORPO wellness spa provides tailor-made holistic experiences that combine ancestral techniques with state-of-the-art cosmetic therapies. Parents can indulge in rejuvenating massages, facials, or organic beauty treatments while the kids are entertained elsewhere.
For families who enjoy staying active together, the fitness centre and serene spa environment ensure there’s something for everyone.
