Conveniently located in the heart of Lisbon, overlooking the bustling Restauradores Square, this compact studio apartment is an excellent choice for business travellers and holidaymakers alike. The place is clutter-free and well-thought-out. There’s a fully-equipped kitchenette for rustling up quick meals and a dining table that doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace should you have some emails to attend to. Wake up feeling refreshed after an extra-long snooze then head out and explore your locale. Nip over to Chiado for breakfast in a sleek cafe then tick off the city’s must-see sights including the Carmo Convent, Castelo de São Jorge and Rua Augusta Arch. Weave your way through Alfama’s higgledy-piggledy streets, easily reached by foot or public transport, before stopping to soak up views of the River Tagus from the Portas do Sol viewport – we think it’s an experience best enjoyed with a glass of green wind in hand.

Local guide
About Mouraria
With street performers, Fado shows and lots of unmissable sights, Mouraria should be at the top of your list. A trip through its narrow streets is like stepping back in time, revisiting the rich cultural background even before the great earthquake of 1755. In fact, the story goes that Fado was born in Mouraria, and it’s since made its way to the UNESCO World Heritage list. Although it’s quite central, this neighbourhood has a strong local community and an independent art scene that will show you a side of old, nostalgic Lisbon that you won’t find anywhere else.
