At a glance
One of eight lounges in Terminal 2, ranking 6th among them. A hub lounge with room to get work done in peace, a bar worth the visit, and showers worth building a layover around — though anyone with a day pass can get in. It seats around 120, pours beer and wine, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 5 AM – 11 PM daily. Fine for a layover, not a reason to plan one. Recorded access options include GOL Premium Lounge, LoungeKey, and Priority Pass. Entry conditions and availability apply.
