HOTEL DESCRIPTION
Locke de Santa Joana is set in a restored former convent in central Lisbon, just a short walk from Marquês de Pombal and Avenida da Liberdade. It’s a big property, but it’s designed around calm courtyards that make it feel surprisingly peaceful once you’re inside. The vibe is lively and social in the shared spaces, with places to grab coffee, work for a bit, or meet friends for a drink later on. Rooms lean more studio-style than classic hotel, which makes it a great fit for longer stays as well as a weekend in the city. There’s a seasonal outdoor pool for warm days, plus plenty happening on-site with dining and bars, so you can easily spend an evening here without needing to plan much. Location-wise, you’re well placed for shopping, viewpoints, and the older neighbourhoods, with the metro close by when you want to hop across town.
Our take on the stay
Bob

Most Lisbon hotels give you a bed and a lobby. Santa Joana gives you an entire little world: multiple wings, hidden corners, and bars that feel like destinations, not amenities, all set within a beautifully restored 17th-century convent.

MORE INFORMATION
This is great
A rare Lisbon stay inside a 17th-century convent, with preserved architectural details woven into a very modern, design-led aparthotel concept
The layout feels like a mini neighbourhood: courtyards, cloister-like corridors, multiple wings, and little pockets to disappear into
Apartment-style rooms that genuinely work for longer stays, with proper kitchens rather than token kitchenettes
A courtyard outdoor pool on site (a big deal in central Lisbon), with space to actually lounge rather than just dip
A strong on-site food and drink line-up, including bars with real character that make staying in feel like part of the trip

Lisbon
Lisbon is a city full of light, colour, and gentle rhythm, built across hills overlooking the Tagus River. Historic neighbourhoods, tiled façades, and iconic trams give it a timeless feel, while cafés and viewpoints bring everyday life outdoors. It’s relaxed yet lively, blending tradition with creativity in a way that feels natural and inviting. Lisbon is a city made for wandering, pausing, and enjoying the moment.
Avenida da Liberdade
Avenida da Liberdade is Lisbon at its most elegant, with wide tree-lined boulevards and grand buildings inspired by European capitals. Luxury shops, cafés, and historic theatres line the avenue, while the city’s hills and neighbourhoods unfold just beyond it. It’s a refined yet lively area, perfect for strolling, shopping, or simply soaking in the atmosphere. Avenida da Liberdade offers a polished side of Lisbon while staying close to its historic heart.
