The 5 star Bairro Alto Hotel Lisbon occupies a splendid 19th century building that was sympathetically restored in 2005 to accommodate this unique hotel, one of the finest in Portugal. Luxury, the charm of the 20's and modernity are exquisitely combined in the public areas and each one of its rooms to recreate a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere.
The hotel is situated in a truly privileged position in Bairro Alto which literally means 'upper quarter') one of the oldest areas of Lisbon and the center of the art district, where Lisbon's culture lives and thrives.
Since time began, this vibrant district has been the home of the intellectuals and artist. It lives on today as the center of Culture, Art, Fashion and Design, indeed, many up market brands value their location in the Bairro Alto.
Thanks to the hotel's excellent placement at the conjunction of Chiado and Bairro Alto, guest are guaranteed an extensive and varied selection of museums, theaters, boutiques, cafes, bars, restaurants and especially traditional Fado houses on their very doorstep.
The Bairro Alto district has also become popular for those seeking extraordinary Fashion and Design items as more designers and international up market brands seek this zone as their base in Lisbon.
The bedrooms, all of which come en suite bathroom, Internet access, individually adjustable air conditioning, direct dial telephone and satellite TV, follow four colour themes, each of them typically Portuguese: yellow, ivory, blue-grey, and red. All the bedrooms have Brazilian wood flooring and feature wooden wall panelling in the corresponding colour. This colourful panelling represents a departure from the traditional dark, natural wood hue. Each room features a unique hand-painted bird scene by a local artist, found in a different place in each room. Constructed from American walnut and cane, stylish wardrobes provide both a traditional function as well as a useful means of hiding all the items that go with the room, including the minibar and safe. Elegant carvings are repeated in the other items in the room, including the bed. To optimise space, the chairs double up as an armchair and desk chair, while the desk also serves as a dressing table with a retractable mirror. Contemporary steel and porcelain lamps from Britain contrast with the oval 1950s-inspired, side-table crafted from 'brecha da Arrábida' stone, while the bed linen, curtains and the leather head board subtly corresponding with the lacquered wall panelling. The overall effect is one of pared-down luxury.
