Convent Square Lisbon occupies the former Convento de São Domingos, a Dominican convent that dates to 1242 and was originally commissioned by King Sancho II.

The building sat in various states of disuse before a full restoration by GRCA architects brought it back into the life of the city, with interiors designed by Artica.

The result is a 117-room hotel built around an open-air cloister that remains the architectural and social heart of the property, with a fire pit at its center and a sky view from every angle.

The hotel sits directly on Rossio Square in the Baixa neighborhood, with Teatro D. Maria II at the front door, Rossio train station across the square, and Chiado, Bairro Alto, and Príncipe Real all within a short walk.

Family Rooms offer a more generous floor plan than the standard categories, with interconnecting room options available for guests who need separate sleeping areas.

The same blush pink and grey finish, pink marble bathrooms, Karl Lagerfeld amenities, and 300-thread cotton linens run throughout, with the additional space making them suited to guests traveling with children or those who want more room during a longer stay.

Food & Drink

Capítulo Restaurant and Bar
Capítulo occupies the former chapter house of the convent, with vaulted ceilings, marble columns, and access to the open-air cloister for outdoor dining.

The menu takes a market-to-table approach to Portuguese cuisine, with seasonal ingredients, shareable petiscos, and more involved plates built around local produce and refined technique. A wine list focused on Portuguese producers runs alongside.

Cloister and Rooftop Bar
The open-air cloister operates as a bar and social space throughout the day, with an outdoor fire pit and a setting framed by the convent’s original stonework. The rooftop bar sits above the building with views across Lisbon’s skyline and operates for drinks and light bites in the evening.

Food & Drink

Wellness

The Wellness Center includes an indoor plunge pool with views over the cloister and the São Domingos rooftops, a sauna, and a fitness studio. The pool and sauna are available to all guests.

The hotel also runs a complimentary 5pm tea blending ritual daily, and live music evenings with Portuguese wines and tapas are a regular fixture.
