Welcome to a world of luxury where every last detail counts!
The Lapa Palace hotel is one of the Lisbon's finest, overlooking the city and the Tagus from its hillside perch.

An ideal place to stay for a wide-ranging clientele, from families to couples and due to its central location, most sights are within walking distance.
