The Verride Palacio Santa Catarina Hotel sits on a hilltop overlooking Lisbon. The hotel sits in a beautifully restored 18th-century palace. You'll notice a peaceful atmosphere as soon as you enter. This is a striking contrast with the busy streets. The Tagus River is also breathtakingly beautiful. This hotel is perfect for a relaxing, romantic getaway.

Overview

Verride Palacio Santa Catarina still stands out in the field of luxury boutique hotels in Portugal. The grand old palace in Lisbon's vibrant Chiado neighborhood dates back to 1750. It is full of original architectural details lovingly maintained. It's not a strictly by-the-book restoration. Architect Teresa Nunes da Ponte introduced a striking line of contemporary design. This new style harmonizes with the opulence and grandeur of the old palace.

The hotel is not only boutique style, but also small, with 18 rooms. This means that you get individualized attention and the type of service that can be difficult to achieve on a larger scale. The rooms and suites also vary between the old and the new. Some of them even have a contemporary feel.

The hotel, which was once a palace and has a rich history, is also filled with fine semi-public and public spaces. These include a fine-dining restaurant, SUBA, a rooftop bar offering a 360-degree view, and a winter garden opening onto a rooftop pool.

Location

This palace sits atop Santa Catarina's hill. It offers stunning views of Lisbon and the Atlantic Ocean. The façade faces the ocean. The rest of it slopes steeply into narrow, cobbled streets in the Bica district. This district is famous for its yellow trams and bars that have been around for hundreds of years.

Moreover, the Pharmacy Museum is located right in front of your hotel. This museum is filled with fascinating medical artifacts. There's also an outdoor café. By taxi, the airport is only 30 minutes away.
