Dear Lisbon - Palace Chiado Suites 

We first visited Lisbon and stayed at Dear Lisbon Palace Chiado four years ago. We by wowed so much by it then that we had no hesitation in booking it for our second stay in this beautiful city. Not only is the grand, stately accommodation “palatial”, the staff go out of their way to constantly ensure that you are looked after. In particular, the front of house staff, Cláudio, Andreia and Miguel really could not do enough in ensuring that all our needs were met. Additionally, all of the house-keeping staff were real ambassadors for the hotel. Diadine, Sakib and others were always eager to engage with us and this all contributed to first class hospitality. The rooms are all every bit as spacious and beautiful as they appear on the website and the specially prepared breakfasts delivered to your room each day are substantial and varied. The proximity of the hotel to the Baixa Chiado district is excellent in terms of restaurants, exclusive and souvenir shops as well as an excellent metro system linking the area to the airport and outlying areas. Lisbon is best discovered on foot. Built on 7 hills it has much to offer in terms of varied neighbourhoods from the labyrinthine Alfama to the miradours and riverside open views. Dear Lisbon Palace Chiado gives easy access on foot to all of these things. The rooms are all elevated and accessed via six flights of stairs in a grand entrance vestibule. There is no lift. Climbing these stairs daily requires a level of fitness which prepares you well for the hilly districts of the town. We are now thinking about when next to return to Lisbon, not only because there is still more to discover, but also so we can experience again staying in another of the fine rooms of this former palace. Ours has again been a wonderful experience.
