Valverde Lisboa Hotel & Garden

A London townhouse impersonating a Lisbon hotel, on the boulevard locals call their Champs-Élysées. Handmade porcelain vases, gilded landscape paintings, and Moorish woodwork keep the rooms from feeling like a set, while moody palettes and retro furniture do the rest. Rooms in the original wing run compact and cozy; the newer side often comes with private balconies and freestanding tubs. Breakfast spills into a courtyard when the weather cooperates, and a small rooftop pool sits above it all.
