Nestled in the heart of Lisbon, where history and modernity blend seamlessly, Convent Square Lisbon, part of the Vignette Collection by IHG Hotels & Resorts, offers an unforgettable stay that embodies the charm and vibrancy of Portugal’s capital.
From the moment you step into Convent Square Lisbon, you’re enveloped in an atmosphere of refined elegance steeped in history. The property occupies a beautifully restored convent, where the architectural grandeur of the past meets the comforts of modern luxury. The hotel’s design pays homage to its heritage, with original stonework and cloisters preserved to create a serene and timeless environment. Yet, there’s nothing outdated about this space—contemporary art and design elements are woven throughout, offering a fresh and sophisticated contrast that is both inviting and inspiring.
Convent Square Lisbon is part of the Vignette Collection, IHG Hotels & Resorts’ first collection brand, which brings together a hand-picked selection of hotels that each tell their own story. The Vignette Collection’s properties are united by distinct characteristics that reflect a more responsible and meaningful way to travel. At Convent Square, this is expressed through two key initiatives: Memorable Rituals and A Means For Good.
Memorable Rituals are designed to connect guests with the local culture in a way that is both personal and profound. At Convent Square Lisbon, this takes the form of a tea ritual, a nod to Portugal’s rich history as the country that introduced tea to Europe. Each day, guests are invited to create their own blend of tea in the hotel’s emblematic cloister, an experience that not only soothes the soul but also deepens one’s appreciation for Lisbon’s cultural heritage.
A Means For Good is IHG’s initiative to foster positive contributions to the communities in which their hotels operate. Convent Square Lisbon has partnered with a local women’s empowerment charity, providing hospitality internships and shadowing opportunities for women in need. The hotel also donates gently used items to the organisation’s houses, ensuring that its impact extends beyond the walls of the property and into the heart of the Lisbon community. This commitment to social responsibility adds an extra layer of meaning to a stay at Convent Square, allowing guests to be part of something bigger than themselves.
No stay at Convent Square Lisbon would be complete without indulging in the culinary delights at Capitulo Restaurant and Bar & Lounge. This dining experience is a celebration of Portuguese gastronomy, where traditional flavours are reimagined with a modern twist. The restaurant’s menu is a culinary journey through Portugal’s rich and diverse food culture, with dishes crafted from the finest local ingredients.
