I love Lisbon and hope to return this year. The Sheraton there is "nice" -- check out those threads above for more info; but I think Lisbon is definetely more noteable than "just for business". I had some splendid shopping, walking, exploring and nightlife in Lisbon.
My favourite people/culture in Europe are those of Portugal and found this warmth and openness throughout my exploits in Lisbon.
