Aug. 9, 2024 in Travel & Destinations by Charlotte Sinclair
A delightful addition to Lisbon’s hospitality scene, the Locke de Santa Joana aparthotel has opened its doors, offering a perfect blend of historical charm and modern convenience. Located on a quiet street parallel to the bustling Avenida da Liberdade, this new establishment stands out not just for its prime location, but for its unique architecture.
At the heart of Locke de Santa Joana are the beautifully preserved monastery spaces dating back to the 17th century. These historic elements infuse the hotel’s interiors with a character and warmth that are often missing from modern, impersonal buildings. However, don’t let the monastic past mislead you—the hotel is expansive, boasting 370 rooms, most of which are housed in contemporary buildings. These rooms are designed with modern travelers in mind, offering both comfort and style.
For guests who wish to immerse themselves in the historic ambiance, the Convent Suite category provides the opportunity to stay in spaces defined by classical proportions, complete with columns and soaring ceilings. Locke de Santa Joana promises a unique and memorable stay, blending the old and new in the heart of Lisbon.
