Palácio Príncipe Real

The flamingo-pink façade isn’t the only flamboyant feature at Palácio Príncipe Real, a carefully renovated Lisbon mansion in the heart of the city. Here hand-painted arabesque ceilings, sweeping staircases and swoonsome azulejos are the order of the day, while super-luxe rooms come with treat-filled Smeg fridges and bouquets of fresh flowers from the garden. Breakfast is served right up to (and occasionally beyond) noon, a freshly cooked feast that facilitates ludicrously long lie-ins as well as setting you up for a long lazy afternoon sipping cocktails in the Lisbon sunshine, cooling off in the saltwater pool, or snoozing in the shade of the garden’s giant jacaranda tree.

Squirrelled away down a steep, cobbled side street in Lisbon’s cosmopolitan Príncipe Real neighbourhood, this perfectly pink palácio sits in meticulously manicured gardens complete with a sun terrace and saltwater pool.

What to expect

25 rooms + 5 suites
Saltwater pool amongst the garden flowers
Plant-based dishes served in the restaurant
