Portugal: Palácio Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel, Lisbon

A Wine Cellar Beneath a Lisbon Palace

Set inside a restored Lisbon palace, Palácio Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel centers its identity on Portuguese wine as much as its architecture. The 61 rooms and suites retain original details, wood floors, hand-painted tiles, carved wood ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto city rooftops or the courtyard garden. Suites come with sofa beds for families or larger parties, and bathrooms mix marble with colorful tile work true to the building's history.

The centerpiece is the bar, built into the brick-vaulted wine cellar beneath the palace, a striking, see-and-be-seen space anchored by a floor-to-ceiling wine counter. A resident sommelier leads daily tastings through Portugal's wine regions, turning the hotel into as much a wine destination as a place to stay.
