Hotel Musotrees is an online feature showcasing a curated selection of hotels, homes, apartments, and aparthotels, drawn from our personal travel experiences. Each destination is chosen for its unique character and thoughtful design.

From vibrant cities to quiet towns, remote islands to hidden gems, we travel anywhere in the world to bring you stories of stays that inspire.

  • Walking to Village by BOA felt like stumbling upon a hidden gem nestled within the bustling city of Porto. Located in the historic neighbourhood of Bairro do Silva, this enclave of 40 accommodations pays tribute to 19th-century memories. Amidst train stations and modern facades, who would have thought you'd find a secluded "island" transformed into an oasis of comfort and design?
    A Design Hideway in the City 
  • A building the colour of burnished sunlight, standing at the edge of Chiado and Bairro Alto. Here, in one of Lisbon’s most iconic squares, Bairro Alto Hotel offers not just shelter but a sense of place. It’s a five-star stay, yes, but the experience hums softer than that. Less spectacle, more soul. Architect Eduardo Souto de Moura, known for his restrained modernism, didn’t simply renovate.
    A Quiet Luxury Stay in the City's Pulse 
  • Driving from Lisbon to Melides felt like slowly peeling back the layers of Portugal. It was my first time driving in the country, and the further I got from the city, the more the scenery opened up—small villages and wide-open skies. The road turned quieter as I got closer to Pa.te.os, with a few bumps and potholes hinting that I was heading somewhere a little more remote.
    Where Architecture Meets Stillness in Alentejo 
  • Tucked away in the charming Amoreiras neighbourhood, Hotel das Amoreirasis a quiet gem nestled across from a lovely garden square. This tranquil area is a true escape, far from the busy tourist spots, yet conveniently close to a metro station. In fact, from my room, I could watch the classic yellow tram pass by, adding a nostalgic Lisbon touch to my stay. It was the perfect spot to enjoy the city at a more relaxed pace.
    A Boutique Retreat in Jardim das Amoreiras 
  • In the heart of Porto, where history meets vibrant streets, Torel 1884 Suites & Apartmentsoffers a rare kind of luxury. Opened in February 2019, this intimate haven spans two locations—one on Rua de Mouzinho da Silveira and the other on Rua das Flores—each just steps away from the city's most cherished sights. It’s a space that marries local heritage with global storytelling, inviting guests to experience the world in one place.
    A Luxury Journey Across Continents 
  • Designed by architect Frederico Valsassina, Lumen Hotel is an unassuming yet modern accommodation that caters to both young professionals and seasoned families. Nestled in the Picoas neighborhood, the hotel is strategically positioned between the city’s bustling business areas, just a stone's throw from the iconic Marquis of Pombal Square and within walking distance of a metro station, making it an ideal location for both work and leisure.
