This Lisbon Hotel Loves Kids and Babies

Family resorts often provide special accommodations for children, but beyond the availability of a crib, these are rarely found in city hotels. This is what makes Martinhal Lisbon Chiado Luxury Hotel & Apartments so extraordinary. For traveling families, this hotel is a revelation.

It’s clear from the first moments inside the hotel that facilities for children are not just an afterthought. The entire hotel is designed to welcome families. The lobby opens onto the bright, inviting kids’ clubs on one side and to an inviting café with a Morris Mini in one corner for kids to climb in on the other side. Included breakfasts are served here, as well as light meals all day long.

The three graded kids’ clubs are filled with bright sunny colors and age-appropriate toys, crafts and games chosen to encourage creativity and exploration, as well as healthy exercise. Children from 6 months to age 3 enjoy puppet shows, story time and a baby gym with sensory toys. Children 3–9 years can choose from arts and crafts, Legos, a climbing wall, and other activities designed to spark their interests.

An especially appealing program for parents allows them to dine out in any of Lisbon’s many restaurants while kids have dinner in the café and are entertained with musical games, dancing and movies. All children’s programs and facilities are staffed by experienced child caregivers.

Martinhal’s attention to families with children doesn’t end with keeping kids entertained. Refrigerators in guestrooms are stocked with milk, fruit juice and bottles of water, replaced daily. Pureed fresh foods are also available for babies.

The Baby Concierge service makes it easy to pre-order products difficult to carry on airplanes like strollers, bottle sterilizers and warmers, cribs, baby baths, and safety gates, ready for you at check-in.

Throughout the stay, parents can expect friendly, caring, professional service and the clear message Martinhal is their home away from home in Lisbon.
