The Lumiares

The Lumiares is a stylish apartment-style stay in the heart of Lisbon’s old city, but with two restaurants, a rooftop bar and stellar service, you’re losing none of the perks of a luxury hotel. Stylistically, it toes the line between modernist luxury and local flavour: geometric patterns and gold accents lend a touch of decadence – fitting for a building that began life as a palace – but the rooms are also filled with furniture and textiles made by local artisans, giving them a true Lisboan soul. And that’s what the Lumiares is all about: bringing guests into the fold. If you’d rather stay in and take a crack at Portuguese cuisine yourself, you can cook up a storm in your sleek Smeg kitchen. If not, head to the rooftop restaurant, or venture out into the Bairro Alto, where the cobbled lanes abound with family-run restaurants, buzzing cafés and worldly wine bars.

The hotel is tucked down the narrow streets of the Barrio Alto (old town), which straddles one of Lisbon’s seven hills.
