If you remember the 1969 James Bond movie “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service,” then you will remember this five-star Palácio Estoril Hotel where 007 orders his martini shaken not stirred. It is also where the famous British agent saves Contessa Teresa di Vicenzo (played by Dianna Rigg), then romances and marries her. Unfortunately, at the end of the film, she is shot in his Aston Martin car. In reality, this hotel was the host of many displaced European royalty during WWII.
