The results of the annual Condé Nast Traveler Reader's Choice Awards in the US and UK have been announced, recognising The Ivens as the 1st and 2nd ranked hotels in Portugal—a recognition that places the Lisbon hotel among the best hotels in the world.

"As this award is chosen entirely by CNT readers, it gives us great pride to know that much of this distinction is due to our team's engagement with guests, the attentiveness and closeness of the staff, as well as the availability and friendliness of the staff, all fundamental factors for the memorable experience enjoyed at the hotel and in Lisbon," said Gonçalo Dias, the hotel's director. "Being among the great references in the national and international hotel industry makes us deeply proud and gives us a huge responsibility to continue exceeding expectations," he added.

The ranking is based on guest reviews, who share their travel experiences in categories such as hotels, spas, resorts, cruises, and airports, on the websites of the prestigious Condé Nast Traveler magazine.

Designed for all those who wish to discover Lisbon with comfort, authenticity, and an unmistakable aesthetic, The Ivens Hotel occupies a historic 19th-century building, formerly the headquarters of Rádio Renascença.
