Altis Belem Hotel & Spa, Member of Design Hotels  

On Lisbon’s Tagus River in the historic Belém district, this five-star design hotel sits between the Monument to the Discoveries and Belém Tower. It’s a short walk to Jerónimos Monastery, the Belém Cultural Center and the famous Pastéis de Belém.

Contemporary, exploration‑inspired design threads through 50 individually decorated luxury rooms and five suites. Rooms offer full HD TVs, minibars, work areas, luxurious linens and bathrobes — and some rooms even have balconies with Jacuzzis and river views.

Pamper yourself at the on-site spa with massage treatments, relax in an indoor or outdoor pool, or sweat it out in the fitness centre, sauna and steam bath. Expect concierge service, 24-hour reception and easy access to riverfront walks and cultural tours.

A 24-hour business center, three meeting rooms and wired and wireless internet keep work simple. On-site services include dry cleaning, laundry and free valet parking.

Dine on Portuguese flavors at the hotel’s fine‑dining restaurant and unwind at the bar or coffee shop. Buffet breakfasts are available for a fee and 24-hour room service is offered for late nights or in-room indulgence.
