Detailed Review
Hotel Britania is a pure Boutique Art Deco hotel in the historic center of Lisbon. It is the only surviving original Art Deco hotel in Lisbon with a touch of modern whimsical nuances, originally designed in the 1940's by the famous Portuguese architect Cassiano Branco. Recently restored in its original Art Deco style and ambience, it provides not only genuine period surroundings but also all the comfort and facilities required in the world of today.
With large rooms, it's located in a quiet street just off Lisbon's main avenue Avenida da Liberdade. The rooms are spacious with beautiful warm-coloured furnishings, classical furniture and exquisite marble period bathrooms restored down to the smallest detail.
The entrance hall gives direct access to the bar with its lively atmosphere humming with conversation in contrast to the quiet relaxing atmosphere of the lounge which invites you to read, listen to music or simply sit and watch the open fire burning in the grate. The size and atmosphere of this hotel give it the air of an exclusive club in which each guest is a member warmly welcomed on arrival and sadly missed on departure.
