HOTEL PALACIO BELMONTE

DESCRIPTION

• Rooms : 11, Central Location, Terrace, Panoramic Views, Swimming pool.

• Lisbon’s most ancient palace, the Palácio Belmonte, is set in the historical city centre on the hill of the São Jorge Castle. The palace was built in 1449, incorporating three towers, on a forty metre boulder over the most ancient moor and Roman walls in the city. In 1640, the construction of a terrace and five classical façades served to augment the palace.

• The refurbishment was conceived around the ancient structures of the palace, aiming to maintain the timber and steel of the time, as well as a fabulous and vast collection of 18th century tiles, that, thus, guarantee the greatest comfort in a most unique ambiance. The rooms were decorated with an individual and modern style. Each room was named after a culturally renowned Portuguese personality, and antique furniture was brought into harmony with contemporary works of art. Its small chapel, vast collection of books and publications from its library, a black marble swimming pool, and the incredible views from its towers over the city of Lisbon are treasures not to be missed.

• The extraordinarily central location of Palácio Belmonte opens the doors of the historical area of the city, its monuments and museums, its typical restaurants and its exciting night life.
