"You’re at the top of the hill in the shadow of the famous castle, but it’s the huge view over the city and river that takes your breath. It keeps you rooted to the spot, stretching up river past Lisbon’s wonderful suspension bridge that appears to hang in the air. 11 rooms are over 6 floors; the higher you climb the better the view. Scale the summit for the Deluxe Suite with its enormous terrace.The style throughout is bright and breezy, with picture windows, minimalist interiors and lots of modern paintings. Owner Luis Lemos is an artist, and his splashy oils adorn most walls. There's a bar-restaurant overlooking the Tagus and Lisbon rooftops, plus a breathtaking terrace for wining and dining in glorious Lisbon sunshine. Follow cobbled streets up to the castle or drop down the hill to the alleyways of Alfama, one of the capital’s most intriguing quarters. The Number 28 tram will save your legs on the way back up.
