Memmo Príncipe Real
Lisbon, Portugal
Perched on a hillside in Lisbon’s upscale Príncipe Real district, the Memmo Príncipe Real offers sweeping panoramic views. The hotel itself is a gem of clean, modernist lines and large windows, with accents derived from traditional Portuguese art and architecture. It is a striking sight after arriving through a small tunnel from the street. Outdoor spaces include a large terrace bar and swimming pool positioned to make the most of the city views. Inside, the stylsih lobby and restaurant are surrounded with floor-to-ceiling windows and offer a range of comfortable seating areas. Each room is invitingly appointed with wooden floors, thick rugs, design furniture, and even the ingredients to mix your own signature cocktail.

Porto, Portugal
The InterContinental Porto is set within an 18th-century palace just around the corner from the São Bento railway station and a few minutes’ walk from many of the city’s attractions.

The Cardosas Bar is a relaxing lounge where you can enjoy cocktails and local wine, afternoon tea, and live fado every Thursday.
