Accommodations

The 118 guestrooms and suites are spread out over six floors, and each has a hint of Art Deco, in keeping with hotel’s past, and different color schemes.

Let the staff take care of you with 24-hour room service, laundry, dry cleaning, and shoe-cleaning services, and daily housekeeping. The hotel extends a warm welcome to families, including the furry, four-legged members.

Probably the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in

It’s often a gamble when picking hotels, there’s so many to choose from. This one is absolutely flawless. We definitely made the right choice. Staying here was an absolute treat as it was my wife’s birthday. We did get a free upgrade but even if we hadn’t this hotel would be worth every penny. We LOVED the art deco decor, was like stepping into the 1920’s but with all the modern luxuries. The breakfast was superb and the staff could not have been more friendly. The bar on the top floor does some outstanding cocktails all with an impressive view, do not miss out! In the spirit of balance I would generally suggest some improvements but hand on heart, there is simply nothing I can say. There’s a real danger you won’t want to leave the hotel and explore the city. Lisbon is one of my favourite cities to visit and I would not hesitate to stay here again. A massive thank you to absolutely everyone who make the stay so special. See you again soon.

We had a very enjoyable stay for three nights at this clean and cosy hotel in the center of Lissabon. Breakfast was very good and so was the dinner we had on the top floor. Especially memorable though was the outstanding overall service we enjoyed. Finnur Geirsson
