This is an historical imposing art-nouveau hotel beautifully restored with a new spa designed by Siza Vieira. The location is wonderful, settled in a lovely and relaxing park, somewhere you can have a rest and breathe pure air. The staff is very nice and professional, the spa is very good and the restaurant serves delicious contemporary portuguese cuisine!

Amazing dining hall with a grand, Edwardian dinner party feel. Take your... More

The building, set in the middle of a park, is imposing but so elegant, reminiscing of our 19th century romantic novels... The interior kept the old layout, and the first thing you see is the stair case. I did feel inclined to walk up and... More
