5-star boutique hotel in historic Belém, a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World™
Accommodations
Palacio Do Governador - Lisbon Hotel & Spa has 60 rooms, each different. The building was restored over Roman remains from the 1st to 5th centuries, blending preserved history with modern design. Room ceilings in some suites use the original brick and mortar of the old church.
Location
The hotel sits in the heart of historic Belém, across from the Belém Tower and a short walk to Jeronimos Monastery. The 15E tram stops directly in front, giving access to Lisbon city center. Guests can walk to Berardo Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art and several local restaurants.
Spa & Wellness
Wellness Hub Belém is a 1,200 sqm retreat with an indoor pool, two waterfalls, a Caribbean shower storm, an ice fountain, and a Turkish bath. The spa offers couples massages, facials, body wraps, body scrubs, and hammam treatments. Guests also have access to a sauna, steam room, fitness center, and yoga classes.
Dining & Bars
Kan.Jo Bar & Restaurant serves Pan-Asian cuisine inspired by communal kitchens, with food made to share. Sala Bartolomeu hosts breakfast and functions, with a buffet and à la carte options including Champagne and made-to-order egg dishes. The poolside bar supports the main bar, and there is a separate bar inside serving cocktails.
Amenities & Services
The hotel has two outdoor swimming pools-one for adults, one for children-with sun loungers, sun umbrellas, and Bali beds. Complimentary electric vehicle charging stations are available on-site, and parking is free under the hotel. A 24-hour multilingual reception, concierge service, luggage storage, and express check-in/check-out support all guest needs.
Highlights
Rooms: 60 all-different rooms, restored over Roman ruins
Dining: Kan.Jo Pan-Asian restaurant with sharing plates
Location: Across from Belém Tower, tram to city center
Parking: Free under-hotel parking with EV charging stations
Pools: Two outdoor pools & one indoor pool
“The Palacio Do Governador clearly respects its history, and that makes it stand out. Its location in Belém places you perfectly for exploring the area's cultural landmarks, while the spa and wellness facilities invite a slower pace. I think the blend of luxury and local character makes it a particularly appealing base in Lisbon.”
