Lisbon Cheese & Wine Suites
Eclectic boutique B&B with a strong personality. Residential feel, contemporary Portuguese art, warm independent-family-run energy. Think pied-à-terre more than luxury palace.

Why It Matters
Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels listed independent property in one of Lisbon's coolest design districts. The name really does deliver: complimentary cheese and wine on arrival is a signature. What sets it apart is the personalised hospitality touches — handwritten notes, evening room treats, a genuine locals-style welcome — not something most mid-range properties bother with.
A small, family-owned boutique guesthouse in Lisbon's Santos design district that lives up to its name in the best possible way: complimentary wine and cheese greet you on arrival, and it doesn't stop there. Think handwritten goodnight notes, freshly baked treats delivered to your room in the evening, and a buffet breakfast that guests consistently rave about. The 22 suites mix contemporary artworks with classic residential architecture — parquet floors, tall ceilings, eclectic design touches — all inside what feels more like a well-loved apartment building than a hotel.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Comfort Double Room
The entry-level room — compact but properly equipped. Queen bed, parquet floors, air conditioning, electric kettle, private en-suite bathroom with shower and hairdryer. All rooms come with free toiletries and wine/champagne for guests. 18 sqm is honest: no seating area, but everything you need for a solid city-break base.
1 Queen bed · 18 sqm
Deluxe Double Room
One of the larger double configurations at 27 sqm. Spacious by Lisbon boutique standards. Parquet floors, heating, air conditioning, electric kettle, flat-screen TV with cable. Private bathroom with shower and hairdryer. The extra space makes a noticeable difference for longer stays.
1 Queen bed · 27 sqm
Deluxe Suite
The top room category at the Suites property. At 37 sqm, this is proper suite territory with a separate seating area — the only room type here that offers one. Queen bed, parquet floors, air conditioning, electric kettle, private bathroom with shower and hairdryer. Flat-screen TV with cable. The added breathing room makes it feel like a proper apartment rather than a hotel room.
1 Queen bed · 37 sqmDouble Room with Interior View
A step up in size from the Comfort Double. Interior courtyard-facing aspect means it can be darker — a trade-off worth knowing about before booking. Same quality fittings: parquet floors, private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV, air con, and the signature in-room wine/champagne.
1 Queen bed · 22 sqmFamily Suite with Interior View
Designed for families or small groups. At 32 sqm with a queen bed and three bunk beds, it sleeps four comfortably. Interior view so natural light is limited, but the interconnecting room option adds flexibility. Private bathroom with bath or shower, air conditioning, electric kettle. Hypoallergenic options available.
1 Queen bed + 3 Bunk beds · 32 sqm
Loft
The Loft configuration at 30 sqm works well for two guests who want separate sleeping zones or a duo of friends. Twin and queen bed combination, air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen TV. Parquet floors and the same eclectic design touches found throughout the property.
1 Twin bed + 1 Queen bed · 30 sqm
Superior Double Room
A comfortable mid-tier option at 25 sqm. Queen bed, parquet floors, air conditioning, electric kettle, and a private bathroom with shower. Guests in this category have specifically mentioned good natural light and comfortable beds. Flat-screen TV with cable and the customary welcome wine/champagne.
