Ritz Lisbon
Grand old-school luxury. Think marble floors, velvet sofas, tapestries commissioned from famed Portuguese artists, and floral arrangements the size of small trees in the lobby. This is not a boutique hotel or a design-forward property. It's a proper grand hotel — polished, formal-ish, and seriously comfortable.
Ask for a room on a higher floor facing the park for the best views of Old Lisbon and the Tagus River.
Why It Matters
One of the oldest luxury hotels in Lisbon (opened 1959), it holds one of Portugal's most important privately owned art collections. The Michelin-starred CURA restaurant is a genuine culinary draw. And the rooftop fitness center with an outdoor running track offering panoramic city views is an unexpected plus in central Lisbon.
The Ritz has been Lisbon's benchmark luxury address since 1959, and it still holds that title despite plenty of new competition. The building rises 10 stories beside Eduardo VII Park, giving most rooms views out over Old Lisbon and the Tagus River. Art Deco bones meet Louis XVI detail throughout, and the hotel doubles as a genuine museum — it houses one of the largest privately owned collections of mid-20th-century Portuguese art in the country. Four Seasons took over management in 1997. The interiors are firmly classic, not cutting-edge, but the fit-out is impeccable, the service consistently impressive, and the dining has a genuine headliner in Michelin-starred CURA.
Where You'll Stay
14 room types available
Almada Negreiros Suite
Named after the Portuguese modernist artist, this suite leans into the hotel's art collection. Private balconies, an expansive living area, and a dedicated dining room make it a good pick for families or longer stays. The artwork on the walls is the real talking point.
One king bed · 175 sqm
Deluxe City-View Room
City-facing rooms at 42 sqm. Smaller than the park-view options but still spacious by Lisbon standards. Good value entry point for the brand.
One king or two twin beds · 42 sqm
Deluxe One-Bedroom Suite
Closely matched in size to the Grand One-Bedroom Suite. Separate sleeping and living spaces make it comfortable for business trips or couples wanting room to breathe. Accommodates up to 3 adults.
One king bed · 115 sqm

One king bed · 175 sqm
Premier City-View Room
Same generous 49 sqm footprint as the park-view version, but oriented toward the city. Views take in Lisbon's rooftops, castle, and hills. Private terrace included.
One king or two twin beds · 49 sqmPremier Park-View Room
Inspired by the hotel's original 1950s style, these rooms have private terraces — a genuine rarity in a city-center hotel. The chairs are modeled after the 1959 Card Room originals, in rich blue and canard teal crushed velvet. A strong choice for views without going to a suite.
One king or two twin beds · 49 sqmPresidential Suite
The grandest room in the house. A marble entrance sets the tone before you reach the vast living and dining rooms made for entertaining. Top-floor corner position means commanding views of St. George's Castle and the Basílica da Estrela. Call to book — this one isn't self-service.
One king bed · 247 sqmRoyal Suite
Panoramic windows flood the space with natural light, and three private balconies give you plenty of outdoor room. The living and dining areas are genuinely large — good for small groups or anyone who wants to spread out. A favourite for special occasions.
One king bed · 175 sqmStudio Suite
A private entrance leads to a large furnished alcove off the bedroom — more space than a standard room, without committing to a full suite. The 1950s-inspired design uses earth tones, warm woods, and delicate patterns. A smart pick for extended stays.
One king bed or two twin beds · 73 sqmSuperior City-View Room
The most flexible bed configuration in the guest room lineup — king, twins, or queen. City-facing at 42 sqm, can accommodate up to 3 adults. The queen option is unusual for a hotel at this level.
