“A unique historical setting for 14 individually decorated contemporary bedrooms. The old blends with the new - stone walls, pale woods, heavy bricks, all the mod cons. Charming inner courtyard and garden with Medieval remains. The only hotel within St. George's Castle walls.”

Hotel review

The blend of ancient and modern has been skilfully achieved here – as with the other Heritage Hotels, which strive to preserve the architectural culture of Lisbon. Old stone walls are juxtaposed with pale wood. Suitably heavy fabrics in the bedrooms are paired with wi-fi and the latest Molton Brown toiletries in the bathrooms. There are gardens, a courtyard, a medieval cistern and a taste of what life must have been like in centuries past. Great views over the city too.
