Stay in a classical Pombaline building, with architecture reminiscent of the city’s reconstruction period after the Great Earthquake of 1755. While the outside is traditional, and you can see the traces of history in the painted wooden frames and stone niches inside, you’ll find this home to be utterly contemporary – especially when it comes to its striking art collection. The living area is bright and open-concept, with the sofa and TV area seamlessly blending with the sleek dining table and kitchen. The bedrooms have long beautiful windows to let the morning light in when you wake and comfortable beds to usher you into a deep sleep after a long day on your feet. And you’re sure to spend at least some of your time exploring on foot, as well located as you are. You’ll be just a three-minute walk to the Lisbon Cathedral, eight minutes to Praça do Rossio and ten minutes to Castelo de S. Jorge. Fit in all your sightseeing, then wander the old streets of Alfama, perusing the shops and traditional restaurants that will complete a perfect Lisbon day.
