The charming The Felix 10 is in the Lapa district, a quiet spot away from the crowds. In just a few minutes, you can reach the city center on foot or by tram.
We stayed at The Felix 10 during our Lisbon trip and felt completely at home. The level of hospitality is exceptional.
It’s clearly a small, owner-run hotel. The owners are always on hand and make sure every guest is happy.
With only 10 rooms, all decorated with care and cool details, the beds are super comfortable – and there are plenty of pillow options.
The two family rooms are a real treat, making this a great choice if you’re traveling with children.
The rooftop terrace is a highlight, offering fantastic views over Lisbon and a perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine at sunset.
The Lumiares Hotel & Spa
The Lumiares Hotel & Spa is a luxury boutique hotel in central Lisbon. Prices are higher here, but it’s worth it for the stunning rooftop terrace with views of the old town.
The hotel sits next to the famous São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint, offering similar views from its rooftop bar.
The rooms are stylish and spacious, most even with a kitchenette and dining area – perfect for families.
Breakfast is included, the hotel has its own restaurant, and the wellness & spa area is part of the package.

Torel Palace Lisbon
At Torel Palace Lisbon, you’re staying in a small palace made up of three early 20th-century villas now converted into a hotel.
Set away from the busy city center on one of Lisbon’s many hills, it’s next to the little Jardim de Torel park – a hidden gem for viewpoints in Lisbon.
From the hotel’s two terraces and the pool, you get fantastic views of the city all the way to the Tagus River.
