São Rafael Suites earns 2016 Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence 2016

O The Vintage Lisboa é o vencedor português da categoria Luxury Rooftop View Hotel, dos World Luxury Hotel Awards 2016, considerados os “óscares” que premeiam os melhores hotéis de luxo a nível internacional. Esta distinção reconhece a qualidade do Hotel e do Rooftop Varanda do Castelo, cujas vistas agraciam Lisboa e o Castelo de São Jorge.

Hotel Palácio do Governador, of the NAU Hotels & Resorts Group, was distinguished as the best tourist enterprise in the Awards of the newspaper Construir which, in partnership with the magazine Anteprojectos, paid tribute to the most outstanding companies, works, professionals and solutions in the last year in the area of construction and architecture.

Inaugurated this year, Palácio do Governador, in Lisbon, is a five star boutique hotel, which has conquered various awards for the work accomplished in the recovery of this building that was the residence of the Governor of the Tower of Belém since the sixteenth century.

The duo of architects Jorge Cruz Pinto and Maria Cristina Mantas designed the architectural project, with the premise of maintaining, to the extent possible, the architectural features and structure of the original building. The rehabilitation was carried out by the Contractor Casais with the decorator Nini Andrade Silva having been in charge of the interior decoration.

The most emblematic boutique hotel of the city of Lisbon, Palácio do Governador is the first new hotel developed by the NAU Hotels & Resorts Group where, apart from having been erected in the former Residence of the Governor of the Tower of Belém, it was restored, preserving Roman remains of the 1st to 5th centuries. Palácio do Governador is a palatial building, with a reception that was once a chapel, a restaurant with its original vaulted ceilings and a contemporary spa reminiscent of the ancient spa bathing traditions of the Mediterranean cultures.

In the midst of the historic centre of Belém and located on the banks of the River Tejo, this Nau Hotels & Resorts establishment presents a unique historic legacy focused on quality and exclusivity. The hotel offers 60 rooms, all different, a premium restaurant with signature cuisine, a spa covering 1,200 m2, an outdoor swimming pool and many other charms to conquer the hearts of Lisbon's residents and all the tourists visiting the city of Lisbon.

The 5 Star Hotel Palácio do Governador from NAU Hotels & Resorts was distinguished by Publituris Portugal Trade Awards in the category of Rehabilitation Award in Hospitality, regarding openings between 2015 and 2016.

The architecture of the hotel is rooted in historical remnants dating back to 1st and 5th centuries BC, when the location was home to a fish sauce factory, exporting amphorae of "garum" to the entire Roman world. And yet, the building itself appears timeless: the current edifice is believed to have been erected as far back as the fifteen hundreds, when it became the residence of the Governors of the Tower of Belém. With the guiding ambition of recreating the elegance and splendour of the glorious Age of the Discoveries, the architecture and decor of this new boutique hotel combine comfort and contemporary elements with the preserved history and historical vestiges to provide an unforgettable experience.
