Portugal’s picturesque capital is one of my favorite cities in the world. I always enjoy my time wandering its labyrinthine streets, enjoying the stunning ocean views, and sipping an endless flow of wine.
Perched on the southern edge of the country’s west coast, Lisbon (or Lisboa, as the locals call it) offers an amazing blend of museums, historic landmarks, eclectic music scenes, vibrant nightlife, charming plazas, and cozy cafés. I fell in love with the city the moment I arrived.
In recent years, Lisbon has become more popular, driven by its affordable cost of living and pleasant year-round weather. It’s also one of the best cities in the world for digital nomads (and one of my personal favorites), with a large community of expats and remote workers.
With so many visitors, it should come as no surprise that Lisbon has a ton of hotels to choose from (not all of them are nice though). To help you decide where to stay, here is my list of the best hotels in Lisbon:
1. Portugal Boutique Hotel
I love how this four-star hotel strikes the perfect balance between old-world elegance and contemporary flair. It has minimalist furnishings that contrast with the building’s historic architectural elements, like arched stone doorways, traditional Portuguese tiling, and hardwood floors. I especially like the wood-paneled breakfast room, where every morning they serve a complimentary breakfast made from fresh, seasonal ingredients. Definitely make sure to check out the wine cellar (you can do a tasting there), and there’s even 24-hour room service in case you get the munchies in the middle of the night. The staff is exceptionally helpful and make for a personalized experience that feels like a five-star hotel.
Every room is unique, but all have a sleek and serene atmosphere, with a pillow menu (where you choose the firmness of your pillow), double-paned windows (for peace and quiet at night), an in-room safe, and a minibar. The rooms are high-tech too, with a smart TV built into the mirror (something I find pretty neat). The bathrooms are spacious, bright, and new, with tiled showers, complimentary toiletries, plush bathrobes, and slippers. It’s the best place to stay in Mouraria, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Lisbon.
2. A Casa das Janelas com Vista
Translated as a “House of Windows with a View,” the name of this cozy bed and breakfast doesn’t lie: there are stunning views from most windows here. The design is really homey,…
