Hotel’ at the third edition of the Events Annual Gala that
took place in Oporto, Portugal. This coincided with the
launch of the “Meet for Free” campaign, which offers free
meeting space for groups of ten rooms or more. This campaign
was extremely successful, providing meeting and event
planners with the best value for money and leading to a
sharp increase in conference and corporate meetings business
for the year for the hotel. The program has now been
re-launched as “back by popular demand” for all bookings
received by the end of January 2012.
The luxurious Corinthia Hotel Lisbon
is located in the heart of the financial district, a short
distance from the historic city center, as well as the
Lisbon International Airport. The modern, stylish hotel
offers stunning views of the 18th century Aqueduct and
beautiful Monsanto Natural Park. The hotel is owned by
