HistoryAt Hotel Palacio you’ll be forgiven for thinking that you’ve travelled
back in time.
Hardly surprising, as the hotel’s elegant ambience, not to mention the
traditional hospitality, evoke all the splendour and charm of Estoril’s golden
era.
Built the 1930, Hotel Palacio today still enjoys many of the refined features of
the period. The hotel’s unique atmosphere inspires all who walk through its
doors, from its impressive facade and beautifully landscaped gardens to its
classically styled interiors.
Throughout its rich history Hotel Palacio has welcomed famous visitors from
around the world. Guests include numerous heads of state, film stars, sports
personalities and royalty. In fact, the Prince of Japan and his wife were among
the first guests, enjoying their honeymoon in one of the sumptous suites.
During World War II, with Portugal’s neutrality, Estoril was a haven for
European royalty, and became known as the “Coast of Kings”. Hotel Palacio
was home to various royals, but was also frequented by both British and German
spies, who often met for drinks at the Estoril Bar. Later, these stories of
intrigue and espionage inspired various famous books and films, with the hotel
providing a stage for the James Bond movie, “On Her Majesty’s Secret
Service”.
Hotel Palacio has since benefitted from several refurbishments and renovations.
Today, it offers all the modern comforts and conveniences of an exclusive five
star resort, but always with the greatest care to preserve the hotel’s unique
classical heritage.
