About

Hotel Britania Art Deco Lisboa

Part of the Lisbon Heritage Collection, Hotel Britania Art Deco Lisboa occupies a 1940s building on Rua Rodrigues Sampaio, a quiet street a short walk from Avenida da Liberdade. The interiors are faithful to the Art Deco era, with original wood panelling, patterned floors and a grand staircase that set the tone for a stay that feels more like a private club than a standard city hotel.

Expect a warm, personal welcome from a team that regularly earns praise for going beyond the usual concierge duties. Despite its intimate scale, the hotel packs in a full buffet breakfast, complimentary afternoon tea with homemade pastries, and a nightly port toast. The 23 rooms and suites are generously proportioned, many with marble bathrooms and some with private terraces.
