Palacio Ludovice Hotel – 5 Star
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 charming Lisbon rooftops.
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.
A district full of life and history, set in one of the seven hills that characterize this European capital. Originally inhabited by Portuguese aristocrats, after the 1755 earthquake, Bairro Alto became a popular area featuring several workshops, secular houses, small shops, restaurants, bars, and newspaper headquarters. Since then, the quiet neighbourhood still preserves its traditional charm and elegance, immensely frequented by intellectuals, artists and bon vivants who seek to mix art and culture with animation.
Crossing the street from the hotel, lies this emblematic viewpoint with one of the most privileged views of Lisbon. From here, it is possible to admire its gardens with Greco-Roman statues, the Tagus River, the walls of the Castle of São Jorge, the Graça church and the Cathedral.
A neighbourhood standing since Roman times, Chiado has always been the go-to spot for shopping. Here, you might find some of the precious Lojas com História (Historic Shops): Livraria Bertrand, the oldest bookstore in the country, inaugurated in 1732; the famous garment store Paris em Lisboa; the mythical coffeeshop A Brasileira, which became a rendezvous point for intellectuals, writers, artists and businessmen and women since 1905. Here, one can enjoy a coffee next to the famous statue of the poet Fernando Pessoa.
A short distance walk from Bairro Alto is Príncipe Real, one of the most exclusive and affluent districts in Lisbon. Here, guests can mingle with the locals while enjoying a coffee at a kiosk in one of its gardens. The neighbourhood is also well-known for its trendy concept stores and frequented by thriving designers, architects, and creative minds.
