Food and drink at Hotel Teatro

Hotel restaurant
Palco is named after the stage, and it looks like one, too. Dark and dramatic, with bright spotlights shining on the stars of the show: curved wooden ceilings, sleek old-school chairs and a load of theatregoers on the wall watching your dining performance (they're the wallpaper). Classic Portuguese cuisine is served, so be sure to try the codfish with cornbread or John Dory slow-cooked in champagne.
- Dress code Costume drama: opulent golds, reds and blacks.
- Top table For prime views, sit overlooking the courtyard; for somewhere shady and romantic, head for the back of the room.
- Last orders During the week, breakfast is served from 7am until 10am; at weekends, it’s 7.30am until 10.30am. Lunch is on offer from 12.30pm until 3pm, and dinner is between 7.30pm and 10.30pm.
- Room service Snacks and drinks can be brought to your room from 7am until midnight.

Hotel bar
Settle in to the stalls at Plateia, monikered in honour of theatre seats (in Portuguese), with a glass of well-picked port and some authentic Fado rhythms.

In the know
Our favourite rooms
Stage a dress rehearsal on the enormous terrace of Suite 601, in the shadows of the Teatro Rivoli over the road; as well as a roll-top bath in the bedroom and his and hers sinks, there’s a costume in a cabinet, ready to inspire your performance. Or plump for an Audience Room, which have the luxury of a bedroom-based bath tub, separate shower, stately chaise longue and views of the courtyard.
Packing tips
Elegant eveningwear for theatre nights, and a Portuguese phrasebook to try and make sense of them.
Also
