Why guests love itA business traveler stretching a work trip into the weekend at the Novotel Porto Atlantico found the rooftop was what kept him at the hotel after meetings. He swam in the outdoor pool at the end of the afternoon, then sat in the hot tub as the city views faded into lights. The 24/7 restaurant covered late dinners and the gym handled early mornings. The mood up top stayed calm rather than social, which suited him after long days.
