"A Fairytale Castle in the middle of an enchanted forest" is the best definition for the Palace Hotel do Bussaco, a true royal palace. Located north of Coimbra in Buçaco National Forest, a botanic Paradise planted by the Barefoot Carmelites in the 17th rueace century, this legendary palace, in the most splendid Neomanueline style, was built between 1888 and 1912 for the last Portuguese Kings and converted into a luxury hotel in 1917. This hotel stands out for its exceptional landscape, the imposing eclectic façade, the ode to Romanticism constituted by the singularity and beauty of the interiors, the epic Discoveries period epitomised in every corner, the works of art, highlighting the collection of tile panels from the 19th century, the luxurious halls and restaurant in Arabic style, with the acclaimed cuisine and the famous Buçaco Wines, along with the personalised and careful service.
