Crowning the heights of the Alfama district, the São Jorge Castle accommodates between its walls a typical set of houses. Between these walls is the Solar Do Castelo, the only hotel situated within the medieval Castle village.

An 18th century building, the small palace is built on the site of the former kitchens of the Royal Palace. The place of legends and the souls of princes, the doors of the palace open out onto the noble patio where the blue of the peacocks from the Castle predominates. A perfect setting for your stay as a couple to rekindle your passion in this romantic boutique hotel.

As in a friend's home, all the areas of Solar Do Castelo are exclusive for our guests.

The small unit comprising an attic and two storeys, a noble patio and a garden stores the traces of the memories of this place. The water tank was preserved and the museological unit of objects found during the renovation recount over eight centuries of History.

The decorative project, undertaken by Atelier Graça Viterbo, stresses the contemporary nature of the revitalization of the space whilst simultaneously stressing the medieval origins.

The streets of the Castle Village are very narrow and locals keep on having their flower pots and little bird cages literally on the street. Of course that is part of the enchantment of this place but it does not help much the traffic access to our place, that now is restricted to locals and taxis 24h a day.

We have also a Golf cart that can pick you up at the castle gate. You just have to tell us when you need it.

At Solar Do Castelo you'll find 20 welcoming rooms which provide all modern conveniences: air-conditioning, a free safe, satellite TV, free access to broad band wireless, LCD TV, DVD/CD reader, Molton Brown amenities, hairdryer and bath robes.

Assisted breakfast buffet in "São Jorge" room or in the garden, library, Honour bar, 24h room service, laundry, free access to broad band wireless, free use of the computer and a printer with internet access and video library are just some of the services at your disposal at Solar Do Castelo. A hotel designated for non-smokers in its interior, as for our sister hotels of Lisbon Heritage Collection.
