The Lisbon City Council has approved plans to build a hotel in the Villa Helena property in Arroios parish and a hotel-apartment complex in Alcântara, Lisbon.

The Villa Helena project encompasses licensing work for a 5-star hotel with 60 guest rooms and proposals for the expansion project of the building.

Additionally, the council has granted permission for the development of a building in Beato parish consisting of two sections with a total implementation area of 4.2km², intended for housing, business and tourism and with 131 planned parking spots.

The plan's document stated: “The proposal envisions the total demolition of the pre-existing building and the construction of a new one presenting three facades, two overlooking streets and the other a pedestrian square.

“This building is destined for tourism, being purposed as an aparthotel, a complex that presents both a hotel and apartments. The establishment will offer 53 T0 rooms, 8 T1 apartments and a T2.”

The project has been granted approval on several criteria, including the approval of the General Director of Cultural Heritage over archaeological concerns.

Furthermore, the approval is subjected to the payment of the compensation charge resulting from lands not transferred to the local government for green spaces, public usage or public parking.

In May, Nobu Hospitality debuted in Lisbon with the opening of the Nobu Hotel and Restaurant Lisbon, the lifestyle brand’s 18th hotel.
