Botanical green tones and pale timber floors define the rooms, while top-floor mansards frame views toward São Jorge Castle through soundproofed windows.
Backstory
Raised during the post-1755 earthquake reconstruction, the 18th-century Pombaline structure preserves a restored tile-by-tile ceramic mural by Portuguese artist Eduardo Nery.
Eat & drink
Olive spreads Mediterranean plates onto the pedestrian promenade, while the central Nery Bar serves cocktails alongside the lobby's historic ceramic mural.
