Palacio Estoril Hotel Golf & Spa - Lisbon

Palacio Estoril Hotel Golf & Spa pairs old-world glamour with a prime position on Portugal’s sun-soaked coast. The hotel’s storied past includes a roll call of royalty and famous faces, while eagle-eyed film fans might even recognise it from a James Bond classic. Spend your days drifting between the outdoor pool and five spots for dining and drinks, while the Banyan Tree Spa and Estoril Wellness Center add another layer of relaxation. The latter is home to a gym and an indoor dynamic pool, perfect for a wellness-focused wind-down. Golfers, meanwhile, can take to the nearby Estoril Golf Course. Back at the hotel, landscaped gardens and views towards Estoril and Cascais Bay add to the sense of escape, yet you’re still well placed for reaching nearby beaches and Casino Estoril. With the buzz of Lisbon just a short drive away, it’s a characterful coastal escape for couples, keen golfers and spa lovers.

There’s plenty to explore beyond the hotel, with Estoril’s beaches and famous casino close by, while the waterfront charms of Cascais are also within easy reach. Golfers can tee off at the hotel-owned Estoril Golf Course, just one mile away, while culture, shopping and sightseeing await in Lisbon – the capital and Lisbon Airport are around 16 miles away.

Rooms, suites and duplexes keep things elegant and comfortable, with classic styling and thoughtful touches throughout. Classic and Superior rooms make an easy base for shorter stays, while an Executive Suite gives you more room to unwind with a separate lounge area and plush seating. Families can spread out in a Garden Duplex Suite, where the bedroom sits upstairs and a separate sitting room awaits below. Best of all, there’s a sunny terrace overlooking the gardens and outdoor pool, just the spot for a chilled drink after a day exploring.
