Palacio Belmonte
Lisbon's most exclusive boutique hotel was named one of the "coolest 21 hotels in the world" by Condé Nast Traveler's UK edition after it opened in 1999. Scenes from the Wim Wenders film Lisbon Story were filmed at the Belmonte Palace, which has just eight luxury suites and is located in the historic Alfama district, near the São Jorge castle.
