Non smoking rooms are available.
Buffet Breakfast is served in the garden, 24h room service, Honour Bar, multilingual staff, concierge, secretarial service, same day laundry, valet service, rent-a-car and garage.
Eça de Queirós, the famous Portuguese novelist, is connected to the hotel by tradition and there are those who say that he lived and found inspiration here in this palace for another magical home - “O Ramalhete” in his novel Os Maias.
The memory of his presence is still very much alive in the atmosphere we find ourselves immersed in: small objets d’art, books, paintings and mementoes take us back to another era now being relived.
The house like the street of the same name, deserves to be discovered slowly, little by little, all the time savouring its gentle, romantic, welcoming atmosphere.
The rooms are sunny and cheerful. The Tagus is close by. One feels good here…
When Spring arrives, the days begin with a wonderful breakfast served in the garden while you breathe in the calm of an older Lisbon where it still feels good to feel love.
