About the property

What makes The Emerald House Lisbon, Curio Collection by Hilton worth the points.

Located at Rua das Janelas Verdes 130 in the Janelas Verdes/Lapa–Estrela district, the hotel sits adjacent to the National Museum of Ancient Art and offers views of the Tagus River and Lisbon's hills from many rooms. The 2021-restored property features 67 rooms with historically inspired décor, floor-to-ceiling windows, free Wi-Fi, espresso machines, and mini-fridges, creating a residential collector's-house atmosphere with locally sourced antiques and an emerald-hued contemporary style. Dining centers on A Mesa, which serves international cuisine with Portuguese dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, alongside the Five O'Clock Bar offering cocktails, drinks, and finger foods with a focus on local wines such as Vinho Verde. A 24-hour fitness center is available, but the hotel has no pool or spa. Three meeting rooms provide about 122 m² of event space. As a full Hilton Honors participant, the property delivers standard elite benefits including direct-booking perks and complimentary breakfast for qualifying members, though the limited inventory of suites and river-view rooms constrains upgrade availability. The neighborhood provides a quieter cultural setting near museums, the riverfront, and tram lines while remaining accessible to central Lisbon sights.

Proximity to the National Museum of Ancient Art and riverfront walks supports year-round cultural visits.
