As close as you will get to Heaven while in Lisbon.

Private, intimate and discrete, you immediately feel right at home as you walk down the narrow walkway that quietly opens onto a courtyard comprised of two palaces and a mansion.

Perched atop one of Lisbon’s many hills, Torel Palace boasts stunning views of the Tagus river and Misericordia on the neighbouring hill.

The property dates back to 1904 when it was a private residence with a villa in the property of the church, which had been a guesthouse for bishops visiting the city.  Later restored by Joao Pedro and his partners, it opened as a hotel and guesthouse for longer-term lettings in 2013.

Today, Torel Palace offers ten tastefully decorated rooms with an elegant decor, a breakfast room, a small villa beside the building and the pool area with a full-service café.

If you aren’t a guest, you can still enjoy an aperitif on their pool-side rooftop patio, or chill on one of the loungers while you answer some emails.
