Hotel description
Montecarmo12 is a beautifully restored townhouse boutique hotel hidden on a quiet street in Lisbon’s Príncipe Real district. The interiors are minimalist and calming, designed by the renowned architectural studio Aires Mateus using natural stone, soft wood and traditional Portuguese touches. With high ceilings, large windows and a warm sense of space, the hotel feels like a serene private residence rather than a traditional city hotel. Mornings begin with a freshly prepared breakfast served in the dining room or out on the peaceful terrace, where guests can enjoy slow moments before exploring the city. The hotel is surrounded by independent boutiques, small cafés and leafy gardens, yet remains blissfully quiet and intimate. It’s a perfect choice for travellers who value refined design, comfort and a relaxed pace in the heart of Lisbon.

About the destination
Principe Real, Lisbon
Príncipe Real is one of Lisbon’s most charming neighbourhoods, perched just above the city with leafy streets and a relaxed, stylish vibe. It’s the perfect place to wander between concept stores, local cafés, and the beautiful garden at its heart. By day it feels calm and inviting, and by night the streets fill gently with great restaurants, wine bars, and a friendly buzz. It’s central, scenic, and full of character, making it one of the most loved corners of Lisbon.
