Dos Reis by The Beautique Hotels

Dos Reis gives its name a visible expression on arrival: a large crown-shaped lamp by Mário Belém hangs in reception. Atelier Nini Andrade Silva's design combines historical references with contemporary details, using ceramics, worked glass and gray and champagne tones. With 54 rooms, the hotel offers a relatively intimate scale for travelers who want their accommodation to have a personality of its own.

Double rooms start at 20 square meters, Twins measure 22 and Superior rooms offer 27. These differences make it possible to choose by actual space rather than category names alone. The hotel's listed equipment includes soundproof windows, a capsule coffee machine and a rainfall shower; minibar items cost extra. The appeal is to travelers who value interior design but also want a practical room after a day on foot.

Intendente, on the green metro line, is the closest station to this Almirante Reis address. It provides a connection for combining neighborhood walks with trips elsewhere in the city. Inside the hotel, Anarchia focuses on Italian cooking, including pasta, pizza and risotto: an on-site dinner alternative to the Portuguese restaurants and other culinary traditions you can explore around Arroios.
