The 24 Hotels Traveler Readers Booked Most This Year

"An 18th-century building provides the framework for AlmaLusa Baixa/Chiado, a boutique gem positioned on Praça de Município, one of Lisbon’s most charming squares. Run by hotelier Miguel Simões de Almeida, the heritage hotel offers unassuming Portuguese charm in a quiet setting. The 28 rooms, by Giano Gonçalves, have a soft, neutral palette with pops from accent pillows and black-and-white-tiled bathrooms. Some rooms, like the Deluxe, have Juliet balconies with views of the square. The perks are in the details: Portuguese textiles, local soaps, comfy Colmol beds and mattresses, Renova paper, and free Wi-Fi and loaner smartphones. Suites have sitting areas; some have kitchenettes. Additional perks materialize upon request, including in-room massages, a pillow menu, and babysitting. —Jenna Scatena"
