Luxury stay in a real palace
If you’ve ever dreamt of living like royalty, this could well be the place for you. Housed in a restored 19th-century palace and national landmark, surrounded by a lush private park and with views of the Tagus River, this hotel offers a touch of luxury for your Lisbon city break.
You'll be tucked out of the way here on the outskirts of the city, but thanks to the handy nearby tram line, you can be strolling through the character-filled streets of Alfama in just half an hour. The sleek spa will be just the ticket if you're in need of some R&R after a day spent seeing the sights, thanks to its extensive menu of treatments. There's a sauna, Turkish bath, and a heated indoor pool, too. Head outside, meanwhile, and there's an outdoor pool fringed with sun loungers and with a fountain at its centre – there are few lovelier spots in Lisbon for soaking up the sunshine.
The hotel’s acclaimed restaurant, housed in the former ballroom, is widely popular for its fine Portuguese menu. After dinner, move to the piano bar for a nightcap, or head out to explore exciting Lisbon. For breakfast there’s a rich and varied buffet, and during warmer months a more relaxed restaurant opens in the poolside pavilion for lighter meals and drinks.
As for where you'll be sleeping, the rooms are just as swish as you'd expect, with antique furnishings, plush fabrics, and oil paintings that feel perfectly at home in the 19th-century surroundings. Rest assured you'll have all the contemporary comforts you'd expect - this place is a perfect blend of historical luxury and modern hospitality.
