The house
IHGMonastic cloister hideaway
An 800-year-old Dominican convent centers around a serene open-air courtyard where guests gather around fire pits under the Lisbon sky.
“The heart of the hotel is the open courtyard, anchored by two olive trees and a cistern used by the nuns for generations.”

What they say
Michelin Selected

Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Original tombstones, 17th-century tiles, and Indo-Portuguese textiles gently preserve its history, while the hushed courtyard, once used by Dominican nuns, remains its soul.

Capítulo Restaurant & Bar
Set beneath vaulted chapter-house ceilings, the restaurant pairs market-driven Portuguese dishes with botanical cocktails mixed at the central bar.
How it began
Commissioned in 1242 by King Sancho II, this Dominican convent survived fires and earthquakes before its cloister was converted into hotel quarters.
