The last palace of Portuguese Kings was transformed into the most legendary Hotel in Portugal and into one of the most beautiful and historical hotels of the world; a symbol of the art of hospitality since 1917.
The Buçaco Palace is a fairytale castle-turned-hotel set in an enchanted forest.
Originally built as a royal retreat for the last Portuguese kings, the Buçaco Palace is now one of the most legendary and historic hotels in Portugal — and among the most beautiful in the world.

Set in the heart of the Buçaco National Forest, a lush and mystical woodland filled with exotic flora, ancient chapels, and traces of military and monastic history, the palace offers an atmosphere like no other. Designed as a fairy tale castle, it was the dream of a visionary king brought to life — with ornate stone carvings, majestic towers, and tile panels that celebrate Portugal’s Age of Discovery.
