As you know, the whole event will take place at Hotel Eden in
Monte Estoril, a beautiful location by the sea just outside Lisbon.
Once at the Lisbon airport, it is fairly simple to get there by public
transport.
The cheapest way is certainly to take the Aerobus (route 91) from the
airport to Cais do Sodré.
The bus runs frequently and you can buy the ticket on-board (3,50
euros).

Alternatively, you can take a taxi from the airport to Cais do
Sodré. It should cost around 15 euros.
Once at Cais do Sodré, you must proceed to the train station and
catch a train headed to Cascais.
The trains also run frequently, but be sure to buy the ticket before
boarding (1,70 euros).

You should leave the train at the penultimate stop: Monte Estoril (just
after Estoril, and before Cascais).
Hotel Eden is just above the train station. We advise you not cross the
main road. Just take the tunnel at the exit of the station and go
upwards (less than 5 minutes walking to the hotel).
The whole raid should take around 1 hour (more if it is rush hour).
2) Meals
Except for the coffee breaks, UniLog does not include any meals. Of
course, if you are staying at Hotel Eden, breakfast is included. The
same happens in most hotels in the area.
For lunch and dinner there are several inexpensive options nearby,
including a few facing the sea and the beach.
There are plenty other possibilities in Estoril and in Cascais, both
walking distance.
For your convenience, please consult the

3) Social program
Due to the high number of participants we have a very heavy
schedule. Nevertheless, there will be two social events.
On Wednesday, April 21 at 19h we will have a Welcome Drink at the
hotel bar. All UniLog participants are invited.
Then, on Friday, April 23 at 20h we will have the UniLog dinner at
a portuguese restaurant in Lisbon.
It will be a buffet of traditional portuguese food, including
options for vegetarians, as well as drinks and dessert (those willing
to try their understanding of portuguese can have a look at the
menu).
Everyone interested in joining should enroll at the UniLog
registration desk, upon arrival.
The price per person is 32 euros.
To get to the restaurant, one should take the train towards
Lisbon, change train at Oeiras, and then leave at the penultimate stop:
Santos (just after Alcântara, and before Cais do
Sodré).
The restaurant Tromba Rija is just in front of the train station,
by the river.
