Inside Monte Palace: Portugal’s Most Mysterious Abandoned Hotel | Azores Walking Tour 4K HDR

Step inside the *Monte Palace Hotel* in *São Miguel, Azores* — once a luxurious *five-star resort* and now one of the most **hauntingly beautiful abandoned places in Portugal**.
Perched high above the *Sete Cidades crater lakes* , this massive structure offers *million-dollar panoramic views* of one of the Azores’ most famous landscapes.

Opened in *1989* with 88 rooms, fine dining restaurants, a nightclub and even a bank, the hotel closed *just 19 months later* due to lack of tourism. Left to decay, it became an icon of *urbex* (urban exploration) in the Azores.

In this immersive *walking tour**, you’ll wander through **empty corridors* , *decaying rooms* , and breathtaking viewpoints. Along the way, discover the *mystery, history, and eerie charm* that keep attracting explorers from around the world.
