Lisbon Hotels
The history and culture of Lisbon are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Portugal’s fascinating capital. This coastal cosmopolitan city is one of the oldest in the world and boasts impressive architecture ranging form Romanesque to Post-Modern, as well as exciting art, fashion, and music scenes. This, coupled with a sparkling coastline and some real good food and drink, brings in travelers from around the world.
Where to stay at a hotel in Lisbon? Important neighborhoods at a glance:
Alfama: Charming old city
Baixa: Sightseeing in the city center
Avenida da Liberdade: Shopping & class
Bairro Alto and Chiado: Nightlife in the bohemian district
Alcântara and Belém: Waterside oasis
The western waterfront neighborhood of Alcântara maintains its historic city charm in a way that the rest of the city has partly lost due to recent surges in the city’s appeal as a travel destination for all. Bustling with locals and authentic shops and restaurants, Alcântara was once a thriving river port and is now peerless its unique grandeur—in all the half-abandoned mansions and an energy straight out of the 1970s. Lisbon’s Alcântara and the neighboring Belém are a great choice for those looking to strike a balance between the happening city life and something quieter and directly waterside. The hotels in the area are super luxurious, often housed within the old mansions. Alternatively, here you’ll also find chic design hotels right on the port with sprawling spa centers and first-rate in-house cuisine. With palace-like interiors, it’s easy to spend whole days believing you’ve really stepped back into an era of Portuguese history long passed.
