Aspersa Lisbon

Property Description

Right in the heart of Bairro Alto, this apartment offers a quiet escape in one of Lisbon’s most emblematic neighbourhoods. Inside, the place is practical yet comfortable, with 600 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets and a movie projector adding a touch of luxury. Put together a traditional Portuguese lunch in the kitchenette as the competitive members of your group battle it out on the PlayStation 4. Watch over the charming streets from your Juliet balcony with an espresso in hand or find the comfiest spot on the couch and curl up with a Booker Prize-winning paperback. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll notice the tangle of lanes that form your surroundings are unassuming by day. Browse the quaint vintage shops, escape the heat in old-school cafes or wander ten minutes downtown for the Santa Justa Lift and Carmo Convent. As twilight falls, hotfoot it back to your locale for bustling bars, raved-about restaurants and live performances in the cool Galeria Zé dos Bois art centre, a two-minute saunter from your doorstep.
