Expert reviews

Frommers review:

“Located mid-way between downtown and the historic Belém district, this is the height of five-star luxury, a Belle Époque palace built by a marquess who made his fortune importing chocolate from cocoa plantations on the equatorial island of São Tomé.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Lisbon.

Fodors review:

‘It’s a little off the tourist trail, but this grand hotel overlooking the River Tagus is well worth seeking out. It offers four suites in the original palace, as well as more accessible accommodations in more modern wings.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Lisbon.

Forbes review:

“The Portuguese-owned Pestana Group has a knack for melding tourism and history, and Pestana Palace Lisboa Hotel & National Monument is clearly the pinnacle of that passion.”

Hotel decor beautiful but for an expensive hotel the housekeeping let it down.

The inside decor was stunning.

The lighting in the room wasn’t acceptable especially when you need to apply make up!! The coffee, milk and bottled water wasn’t replaced daily so we had to make a call each day asking for replacements.

A pure delight with exceptional staff

Incredible venue and exceptional staff made our stay an absolute delight! The wonderful beds and top breakfast on the terrace were the highlights along with the super swimming pool. Nothing was too much trouble for every single one of the staff. There is nothing to fault here in fact so much to love!

Nothing - Keep doing what you are doing

Pleasant experience, worth to come back again.

Excellent historical venue .

Tried to call the front desk several times with no luck to get bell boy to help with the luggage on our check out date, guess the staff were too busy, no one answered the phone. So me and my husband had to roll the 4 luggage to the reception, that’s the only thing.

Lovely

The breakfast is excellent, you will always find a variety of food. The room is nice and big. It is always clean. The pool is wonderful.

They were not serving food and drinks by the pool so we had to go to the restaurant above and bring our meals to eat by the pool.

Beautiful hotel with excellent food and facilities.

Buildings and grounds, stunning, as you would expect for a palace. Very good choice for breakfast. Meals in piano bar were excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. Multi-lingual staff spoke English and French very well, with some staff speaking other languages also.

Only minor negatives. Variable catering staff competence, such as needing to be reminded we wanted water with our meal, and providing only hot water for tea and needing to be asked to replace with boiling water. Room staff did not always replace everything they removed (bottled water, cups). But these were just occasional lapses, hard to avoid in large establishments, and immediately corrected when we brought them to staff's attention.

A chance to stay in a palace, what’s not to love 🤩

It’s a palace, and very elaborate rooms in the main building… stunning rooms, decor, stained glass, views and furniture: breakfast selection was absolutely excellent, including bubbles and smoked salmon and gorgeous tables outside in the beautiful gardens. Staff were all absolutely fantastic.

The rooms themselves (in newer wings than the main palace) were a little dated, not very sound proofed and the bed was too hard for my liking.

quiet comfy nights in an excellent location

excellent hotel in a good location (short Uber drive into the city centre). The hotel itself was built into an old palace, which looks absolutly marvellous. The double rooms are spacious with a comfy king bed and a good aircon.

The service at the pool bar was a bit sloppy. Only in the afternoon a waiter was available. Coffee was served in a paper cup, while other drinks were served in glasses as expected.
