Our experience at Torel Palace Lisbon was truly something out of a dream. I honestly do not know where to begin, because I cannot express enough how amazing this stay was for me and my fiancée. I planned a surprise proposal for my fiancée at the hotel and reached out to the team in advance for help bringing everything together. What they delivered was beyond anything I could have hoped for. From the very beginning, they were incredibly helpful, engaged, and genuinely invested in making my vision come to life. They helped me arrange access to special locations, decoration, a specially prepared dinner, a photographer, and so many thoughtful details that made the whole moment unforgettable. The proposal itself was everything we had dreamed of. I am so grateful that they helped me create this for my fiancée, and she absolutely loved it. It was such a special and emotional moment for us, and the way the team handled everything made it even more magical than I could have imagined. After that, the rest of our stay continued in the same exceptional way. The staff looked after us with such warmth and care, making sure we could fully enjoy this beautiful moment together and celebrate in peace. Our room was absolutely stunning, with an incredible view over beautiful Lisbon. The amenities were wonderful, the bath was perfect, and the aesthetics of the building, the rooms, and the interiors were simply superb. Every corner of the hotel felt elegant, thoughtful, and full of character. The attention to detail throughout the entire property was truly impressive. I also want to give a very special thank you to Cristina Sargento, Igor Lopes, and above all, Inês Feijão, the restaurant manager at Black Pavilion, together with her whole team. Inês went above and beyond to help me with this very special request and moment. Her communication was excellent, she was incredibly thoughtful, and she made sure everything happened exactly according to plan. I genuinely could not have asked for anyone better to help me create such an important memory. For that, I want to send my deepest thanks to Inês and the entire Torel Palace and Black Pavilion team for turning this once-in-a-lifetime moment into a core memory that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I truly cannot recommend this place enough. Also, make sure to dine at both Black Pavilion and 2Monkeys for an exceptional food experience unlike any other. With love and warmth, From Sweden.
