Sofitel Lisbon Liberdade ★★★★★

Legend dictates that after the Trojan War, Ulysses sailed around the Iberian Peninsula and encountered a seductive, but terrifying, serpent queen of some beautiful coastal lands. He was the first who dared to approach her, and whilst she fell in love with him, he merely fell in love with the charming beauty of her landscape.

Pack your bags and set forth to discover the intoxicating beauty of Lisbon’s seven hills, and the majestic flowing waters of the River Tagus from the luxurious and lavish Hotel Sofitel Lisbon Liberdade. At this fantastic, five-star hotel, tradition and modernity unite to offer a marvellous, unforgettable experience. In your room or suite, you can collapse onto the plush bed and unwind in a truly cosy atmosphere. Interior designer, Nicolas Adnet, has chosen warm colour schemes to convey calmness and serenity whilst also reflecting Lisbon’s illustrious past. Sofitel Lisbon Liberdade’s décor embraces this culturally rich Portuguese capital, with traditional, stylish red and gold furnishings and accents, that contrast with magnificent marble sculptures.

Ulysses climbed one of its hills and declared.
“Here, I will raise the most beautiful city of the Universe, and call it Ulisseia, upon my own name.”
However, fearing the queen’s wrath, he fled, she sought to follow him, desperate with grief, but her immense tail was trapped in the river which became the Tagus.
