Service is polished but warm, the spa and rooftop running track are a quiet luxury, and Avenida da Liberdade's boutiques are a short walk away.

- Original mid-century art and design
- Spa with indoor pool and rooftop track
- Steps from Avenida da Liberdade
Dining
Varanda is known for its lavish lunch buffet and terrace; the bar is a classic Lisbon meeting place.
A stay, imagined
Life at Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon
Picture your arrival: your driver meets you at Lisbon Airport, the luggage is taken care of, and before long you are in Lisbon, where Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon waits. A mid-century landmark above Eduardo VII Park, with one of the city's finest art collections.
Park and river views from many rooms and original mid-century art and design set the tone for the days ahead. Varanda is known for its lavish lunch buffet and terrace; the bar is a classic Lisbon meeting place. It is a stay we recommend especially for couples, art lovers, business and leisure.
Beyond the hotel, Lisbon unfolds at your own pace. Lisbon reveals itself slowly. Mornings begin with the clatter of a yellow tram climbing towards the castle, the smell of fresh pastéis de nata drifting from a pastelaria, and a light so clear that painters have travelled here for centuries just to catch it on the river.
