Tiered courtyards scented with jasmine and citrus trees shelter an eighteenth-century aristocratic retreat steeped in quiet, old-world charm.
“Literary palacete hideaway”
An authentic eighteenth-century palacete preserving original hand-painted azulejo tiles, a private chapel, and storied literary lore.
Courtyard breakfasts and evening port beside citrus trees, immersed in the quiet historic atmosphere of Janelas Verdes.
Sixteen individually styled rooms shaped by historic architecture, including timber attic eaves and a walk-in kitchen hearth.
On historic Rua das Janelas Verdes, steps from the National Museum of Ancient Art and Tagus River
Rooms
Hand-painted blue azulejo tiles and stucco ceilings define the suites, including one built inside the palace's original stone kitchen hearth.
Wellness
An intimate courtyard pool and sun terrace perch above the gardens, gazing over terracotta rooftops toward the Tagus River.
Backstory
Named after a sunflower tile panel beside the staircase, the palace famously inspired the setting of Eça de Queirós's 1888 novel Os Maias.
Eat & drink
Cooked-to-order breakfasts are served on the garden patio, while the cozy lounge pours evening port and Portuguese wines alongside tapas.
The neighborhood
Set along cobblestoned Rua das Janelas Verdes, the hotel sits steps from the National Museum of Ancient Art and the riverside.
