Palacio do Governador

The spa is something else 5*

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The service was simply excellent throughout. The hotel is spotlessly clean and tastefully designed with lots of very nice touches, our waitress told us the Vista Allegre plates at dinner were designed especially for the hotel. The building is very grand and comfortable. The food at breakfast and in the restaurant at dinner was excellent and even the room service was of a high standard. Drinks on the terrace from the bar were very well prepared. I had a massage and it was excellent, I’m still very relaxed 24 hrs after it :) The spa is beautiful, as is the outside area. We will definitely return and would recommend to anyone.

The hotel's interior design (respect for the old with modern elements), very clean and sincerely friendly staff. Great breakfast and excellent spa (large pool and sauna/ Turkish steam bath free to use). This makes makes this hotel a cosy place where you feel right at home. The location is outside the busy Lisbon centre but has very good public transport connections (right in front of the hotel). It was heartwarming to see that the hotel integrates a young, deaf and mute cook in the kitchen staff as a full team member, with great support from her colleagues.(This is unique)
