The Palácio Hotel do Buçaco (also Bussaco Palace Hotel) is a hotel above the spa town of Luso, in central Portugal.

The Palácio do Buçaco was built by King Carlos in 1887 as a summer palace. According to the plans of the Italian architect Luigi Manini built in the neo- Manueline style, parts of the monastery Convento de Santa Cruz do Buçaco were it demolished. Several hiking and walking trails lead from the building and its grounds from the surrounding Serra do Buçaco.
