Hotel Albatroz

Just 27 kilometres from Lisbon, in the charming town of Cascais, the Hotel Albatroz stands as a jewel of the Portuguese coast, where history and luxury blend seamlessly. Originally built in the 19th century as a summer retreat for the Portuguese royal family, the property has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its original splendour while offering all the modern comforts demanded by today’s discerning traveller.

The hotel enjoys a prime location with spectacular views over Cascais Bay, and its interiors exude sophistication. Every detail, from the bright, elegant rooms to the refined lounges, pays homage to the past while ensuring an unforgettable stay. An additional wing, constructed in the 1980s, and the recent restoration of a nearby palace, which now houses six magnificent suites, further elevate the experience. Notably, Suite 4 features a library that invites peaceful moments of reading and reflection.

What truly sets the Albatroz apart, however, are its small, thoughtful pleasures. The sun-drenched terrace overlooking the Atlantic is perfect for an afternoon tea with scones or for savouring a gin and tonic at sunset as the sky transforms into warm hues. The restaurant, with its impeccable cuisine and stunning panoramic views, makes every meal a celebration.

Beyond The Hotel Albatroz is not merely a place to stay but a destination in its own right, where the elegance of the past and the beauty of the present come together to create unforgettable moments by the ocean. The hotel, Cascais offers a wealth of attractions: beaches ideal for surfing or sailing, a lively historic centre brimming with cultural events, and vibrant nightlife. Just a short drive away lies the Serra da Sintra, a dreamlike landscape where palaces and castles harmonise with nature in a unique tableau.
