Montecarmo 12 is a boutique hotel in Lisbon's Príncipe Real, with interiors and architecture crafted by renowned architects Aires Mateus.
Set on a quiet corner just off the main street, this design-led boutique hotel blends old and new, with a focus on simplicity, comfort, and thoughtful details. The building’s original charm is carefully preserved while the interiors feel calm, minimalist, and quietly elegant.
The rooms are light-filled and understated, featuring Portuguese Lioz limestone bathrooms, contemporary furnishings, and soft tones throughout. The hotel runs on a low-key, digital system—check-in is contactless, and keyless access keeps things seamless. Guests can relax in the shared living room, which is open around the clock and includes a small bar, books, and magazines.
A vegetarian brunch is served daily, with the choice of gathering around the shared oak table in the open kitchen, enjoying it in the courtyard, or, for those staying in rooms with terraces, having it outdoors in private. Tea, snacks, and Mediterranean-inspired boards are available throughout the day.
