Palácio Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel

“Beautiful room”

We loved this hotel. The room was just gorgeous and had an amazing view of the city. It took us a while to figure out where and how all of the little light switches needed to be used when it was time for lights out, but I guess I blame us for that. It was an amazing room all around.

We loved this hotel. The room was just gorgeous and had an amazing view of the city. It took us a while to figure out where and how all of the little light switches needed to be used when it was time for lights out, but I guess I blame us for that. It was an amazing room all around. We enjoyed the breakfast and had no complaints- there were many options for everyone. We enjoyed the 5:30 wine tasting as well. To be candid, we talked about why it was called a “wine experience” hotel, as we had similar experiences at other hotels as well. Maybe we were expecting a wine barrel in our room? In all seriousness, it’s a beautiful hotel with great history and good location.

“The most beautiful room I've ever stayed in”

Lovely, lovely room, in a beautifully preserved historic hotel in a truly fabulous location in the heart of Lisbon. I can't say enough about the decor. Even the smoke detector is part of a work of art within the ceiling moulding. The windows open two ways, and include two types of curtains as well as fully functioning shutters. Even though the room was over the street, it was very quiet with the windows shut. The design of the carpets in the hallways is so clever, reflecting the nearby Duoru Valley. The breakfast was beautifully presented, but not quite as tasty as what we had in a different luxury hotel, and the waitstaff were a bit on edge it seemed.

“Fantastic stay in Lisbon”

What a magical place to land for our first time in Portugal! Everything was spot on at PL. From the warm reception and friendly staff, to the gorgeous accommodations, the excellent location, complimentary wine tasting and delectable pasteis delivery...we could not have asked for a better experience… lisää

Palácio Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel, Lisbon (opened 2022) is abeautifully restored mansion-turned-hotel, thoughtfully designed and generally excellent. I would have rated it 5/5 overall, except for a notably poor breakfast experience on one morning. Ratings Location: 5/5 Amenities: 5/5 Lobby: 4/5 Room: 4/5 Bed & pillows: 5/5 Bathroom: 4/5 Toiletries: Portus Cale Towels: 5/5 Shower pressure: 5/5 Breakfast: 1/5 (inconsistent experience) Restaurant: 5/5 The hotel sits right next to the Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara. It occupies an entire block, with the surrounding streets—especially Travessa da Cara—coming alive at night. Our second-floor room featured high ceilings and overlooked the atrium, where the restaurant sits below. The long hanging lights and greenery create a warm, open atmosphere. The room door is heavy and solid, adding to the sense of restoration. The bathroom is well-finished but slightly limited in counter space. Shower pressure from the handheld unit is excellent, almost strong to a fault. Small details—like the slightly short toilet seat and occasional lingering drip from the faucet—are noticeable but minor. The gym has a striking vaulted ceiling, though I didn’t use the facilities. A 5:30pm wine tasting led by a licensed sommelier (limited to 12 guests) was a highlight—informative, intimate, and well-run. Breakfast is generally very good: buffet selection plus made-to-order eggs. Cappuccinos are served in thick cups or tall glasses, and items like the honeycomb and chia seed pudding stand out. However, service during our last breakfast on a Saturday fell far below standard—slow, disorganized, and inattentive, with significant delays in both ordering and clearing tables, which detracted sharply from the experience. Dinner (steelite tableware) and the bar (Riedel stems) were both excellent and consistently well-executed. Thanks for the afternoon egg tarts!
