Located in the heart of Lisbon amidst the mythical Chiado, Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real neighbourhoods, facing the breathtaking panoramic views of the São Pedro de Alcântara Viewpoint and the emblematic Glória Tram.
Former private residence of João Federico Ludovice, architect to King João V in the 18th century, its rooms and halls are brought back to life as 61 rooms and suites, completely transformed under the eye of the architect Miguel Câncio Martins to bring to life the ultimate luxury boutique hotel experience in the city.
Miguel Câncio Martins, internationally recognized for emblematic projects such as the Buddha Bar in Paris, the Opium in London, and for hotels such as Quinta da Comporta in Portugal. Under his care, the original white-and-blue tiles from the 18th century, its fresco paintings and stucco ceilings were preserved, and a new and palatial accommodation arose, marking the beginning of a new era in this historical landmark.
A privileged location with sumptuous accommodation, an iconic gastronomic experience at Federico restaurant, curated wine tastings at the Porto Wine Institute and the luxurious grapevine wellness treatments at CAUDALIE come together to allow guests to discover Lisbon through the lens of a fine wine connoisseur.
The hotel is a member of Caractere Hotels, a marketing consortium of some fibe hotels in Sourthern Europe

THPT Comment: Given that World Malbec Day is upon us (17th April) wine-centered hotels is an obvious move…we would like to hear about more hotels globally that take wine seriously!
