Palace Lisbon
Heritage-meets-contemporary luxury with a Portuguese royalty theme. Intimate and romantic, feels more like a private palace than a hotel. Lush greenery softens the grandeur. British-tinged bar adds a quirky twist.
Book 2Monkeys well in advance — it's limited to just 14 guests per service and fills fast. It's also non-vegetarian and cannot be adapted.
Why It Matters
One of Lisbon's most distinctive luxury properties, built from four palaces with rooms named after Portuguese royalty. The onsite 2Monkeys restaurant earned a Michelin star in 2024 — helmed by Vitor Matos, Portugal's most Michelin-starred chef. Two outdoor pools on a city-center hilltop is a genuine rarity in Lisbon. The Torel Tower, built in the late 19th century and once the highest point in Lisbon, is an ascent through antique stained glass worth doing just for the view.
Four historic buildings — a pink palace, a blue palace, the Lavra Palace, and a white building — joined together on Lisbon's Colina Sant'Ana hill to form a 5-star boutique hotel where every room is named after a Portuguese king, queen, or royal infant. The views are genuinely spectacular: from the terrace pool you see the city's terracotta rooftops and the Tagus stretching out below. But this isn't just a pretty perch — the onsite 2Monkeys restaurant holds a Michelin star, and the Calla Wellness & Spa comes with two pools, a hammam, and a full treatment menu.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The guest relations team provides city maps, local guidance, and can arrange tours to Belém, Cascais, Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and beyond. Tailor-made services are a stated part of the hotel's offer.
A more garden-enclosed pool setting, lush with greenery. Equally private. Both pools are seasonal and make the hotel feel more like a resort than a city hotel.
The Terrace Pool sits on an elevated position with sweeping panoramic views of Lisbon. Sun loungers and staff on hand to bring drinks. One of two outdoor pools on-site.
Every Thursday afternoon, guests are invited to enjoy a complimentary drink at Duke's Bar and chat with the hotel manager. A low-key, genuinely friendly ritual.
Free group yoga class by the terrace pool every Saturday morning, spring through autumn. Weather-dependent. A genuinely good way to start the weekend with city views in the background.
Seasonal outdoor evening events on the Sunset Deck during summer months. Drinks, live music, and Lisbon's skyline as the backdrop. One of the most photogenic spots at the hotel.
A tower built in the late 19th century within Casa do Lavra, once the highest point in Lisbon. Ascending it is an experience through antique stained glass, culminating in city-wide views from the top.
