Hotel and location:
On a hilltop overlooking the Tagus River, this luxurious 5* hotel was previously a private residence built in 1870, and converted to a hotel in 2010. Located in the Embassy district, surrounded by beautiful palaces and noble homes, you will feel like you have been transported to a time of great fortune and nobility during your stay at the Lapa Palace, perfectly situated away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre.
Within a 10 minute walk are the National Museum of Ancient Art and A Barraca Theatre, a perfect stop for a spot of history and culture. Rossio Square, the historical centre of Lisbon, and the Santa Justa Elevator are within 3km of the hotel. If you are looking for a sightseeing break and enjoy city walks, then the Estrela district is full of architecture and history, with one of Lisbon`s most loved landmarks, the 18th century Basílica da Estrela.
