Farol Design Hotel

Cascais is a town of charming old houses and cobbled streets huddled around a graceful bay on Portugal’s spectacular Estoril Coast. A short walk from its historical centre stands Farol Design Hotel, a daring architectural project directly overlooking the sparkling waters and delightful fishing boats of the local marina. Housed in a remodelled 19th-century mansion, Farol Design Hotel was treated this year to a full-blown interior design makeover, inside and out. All spaces have been redefined in ever-so-cool black and white, making the contrast between modern, minimalist interior and historic, traditional exterior even more striking

The 31 guest rooms and two suites offer stunning ocean views – amongst them, nine Designer Rooms individually "dressed for bliss" by acclaimed Portuguese fashion designers. Room amenities include hydro-massage bath tub, air conditioning, cable TV, ISDN phone, level five modem line and some rooms with a balcony or terrace. Designer rooms are equipped with Nespresso machines.

The Mix restaurant has launched fresh lunch and dinner menus rounded out by an extensively updated wine list – all in keeping with the hotel’s sleek, invigorating new look. The bar offers a selection of creative house cocktails, snacks and light lunches served in an ultra-contemporary, refurbished lounge area. The perfect place to hang out and chill is the new lounge bar - On the Rocks, known for its hip, intimate yet elegant atmosphere. The Mix is luxuriously spread over three distinct dining areas, The Mix, the terrace and the Private Mix that flow gracefully into one another.

The terrace surrounding the original ocean-water pool offers exquisite deck chairs and chaises, soft light that evoke the distinct impression of floating on water, while the garden area has been arranged to further blur the boundaries between the hotel and its stunning natural surroundings.
