About this property

Elegant in Alfama with Terrace and FREE parking.

Wonderful apartment, charming and very elegant, located in a recently refurbished building in the quaint Alfama district. This is with no doubt the perfect place to stay. Alfama is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Lisbon. It survived the big earthquake (1755), so it's quite charming and genuine, as most of buildings and streets are the same as they were many years ago.
This apartment is situated on the first floor of a totally refurbished building, and consists of two bed rooms (4 single beds), living/dining room with A/C (with heating option), fully equipped kitchen and 2 WC/bathroom (one with shower and the other one with bathtub). It accommodates up to 4 people. One bedroom and kitchen have access to a private terrace. Linens and towels are included, as well as dishes, hair dryer, iron, etc.

It's within walking distance from downtown (Baixa), Castle of São Jorge, beautiful viewpoints of Portas do Sol, Graça and Senhora do Monte, the famous flea market - Feira da Ladra , and legendary tram No. 28. It is three minutes away from the Santa Apolónia train/metro station, it has a few banks and a pharmacy in its surrounding. In the neighbourhood, you can find several typical restaurants with fado, lots of small cafes, bars, and local shops.

We are here to provide all the advice for a pleasant stay, and will do our best to help in anything you may need!

- During the month of JUNE Lisbon celebrates with street parties in Alfama (particularly the 12,13, 14 June). These last until 2am from thursdays to sundays and the streets are filled with stalls selling Grilled Sardines, Sangria, Wine & Beer. If you like a good street party where you can feel all the traditional atmosphere of this important celebrations, this is really the best place to be. If you are looking for a quite holiday this is not the place to stay during this period.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The beds are the most uncomfortable beds that exist. They feel like you are sleeping on the floor. No one in our group had a good nights sleep. We checked in after 7pm and after a late dinner we returned to the place to discover the terrible status of the beds. My wife tried to sleep on the bed, but moved to the sofa in the living room after a few minutes. She stated that she could not stay here as she would not get any sleep. We immediately messaged the host on the VRBO app to let him know the problem. No response. We then found a new place to stay and let him know we were leaving the next day. Again, no response. At this point in was after midnight and were stuck there. The only way I was able to get any sleep was to lay four pillows across the bed to provide some level of cushioning. We messaged the host again the next morning and told him that it was a shame that the mattresses were so terrible as the rest of the place seemed nice. Again, no response. We messaged him again at 3pm the next day to let him know we were checking out. He responded this time with "Where are the keys?" Obviously, he had no concern for what we had gone through. We have rented many properties around the world and have never encountered issues with the beds. This is the only property we have ever had to leave before our checkout date.

Perfect quiet location

Easy to walk to attractions and restaurants. Very clean and comfortable. Slept in until noon one day, that is how peaceful this area is. Management met us upon arrive and hung out for awhile for another traveler to join our group. Very kind and patient.

Great base for enjoying Lisbon

This is a lovely property. It's laid out so well. The terrace in the back is cozy. The bedrooms are quiet. The living room is very comfortable -- and large enough for us all to stretch out at the end of the day. I highly recommend this place.

Alfarma at it’s best

The four day stay was very comfortable and well appointed. The location was superb for just walking out or for transport links to the wider city. There were taxis up to the front door as well as a tram stop only meters away. In the near community were small bars, coffee shop and restaurants. An excellent place to stay to explore Lisbon.

Great location. Easy to get around.

Copenhagen Coffee Lab across the street was amazing. The trolleys are right outside the door… so it can be noisy if that bothers you… it didn’t bother us. Unit is well appointed. Could have used a few more towels for our 5 night stay. Check in was easy and all of our contact with owner/manager was very positive. We had no issues with anything in the unit. Great stay.

Old town location

The apartment was fine and large enough for two couples, but could be managed better. A number of items were broken or needed repair, but were fixed during our stay. A binder with instructions and useful information would have been helpful.

Great location in Alfama

The apartment is a lovely spacious place that is close to many great restaurants and sites in Lisbon. Our only issue was that we didn’t have quite enough information about the area and the workings of the apartment and had to fumble around a bit. The AC didn’t work in the living room and the washing machine was very difficult to operate. Other than that, we loved the place!

This was a great property for my family and I. We were four adults and the apartment was spacious and clean. We really enjoyed having our breakfast on the balcony. The air conditioning in the rooms was a big plus as we were there in August. Juan was great in communicating with us before and during our stay. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Lisbon.

Spacious Apartment in a picturesque district.

The apt was clean and spacious. It contained everything we needed for 2 couples for 5 nights. The tram 28 passed right in front and the metro was a 10 minute walk downhill. Even though we were in the heart of the Alfama district, the apt was relatively quiet. We really appreciated the terrace off the kitchen for sitting and reading or hanging out our clothes. The air conditioning worked very well. The only I suggestion I have is to supply and extra light sheet for each bed for those of us who don’t care to sleep with the a/c on. We would highly recommend this apt to others.

Superbe !

Appartement superbe situé dans la vieille ville, très typique et plus calme. Séjour avec 2 ados, il y a 2 chambres et 2 sdb/wc, tout est impécable et propre, le confort aussi. ET l'accueil, royal ! Juan et sa nièce sont aux petits soins, nous avons été accueillis avec les fameuses pâtisseries ! Absolument adorables et disponibles ! Je recommande !

Excellent property, strategically located in the center of Alfama

First of all, it is how is shown in the pictures. Or better. Delivered very clean, and everything was working, The only think that you need for the first night, either beer/wine or milk, for the next morning. Which you can get 50 m from there. Be careful when you open the door the first time you leave the premises. You may find the trolley #28, the famous, running in front of the building. An amazing experience! It happened to us. You can get to any Alfama location within 15 minutes wallk. You can get downtown within 25 minutes walk. We were 4 adults and stayed 4 days. With all the features you can stay way longer: has a washer machine and can hang clothes outside in the private patio. Don't want to do dishes? Has a dishwasher. All well thought. It does have an internal parking so you do not need to move around with the car, which is very difficult. Has a decent size TV with channels in all languages; as well as very fast internet. In summary, I do recommend this property while visiting Lisbon/Alfama.

Enjoyed the appartment, and appreciated getting parked offstreet in Alfama. Couple of niggles - TV did not work, windows to street from bedroom and bathroom were very public and No-one let us know checkout was running late. We had to phone and make our own arrangements.

Tram 28 is right outside of the door, very convenient. Great location, close to major attractions and apartment is clean and spacious. Owner is extremely helpful. We had an evening flight on departure day and the owner let us stayed until it was time to go to airport. This is above and beyond. We highly recommend this place.

Better than expectations, lots of common room, and the perfect part of town.

We stayed here for a week and it felt like home. The private patio out back was great for hanging out every morning before we went out and then late at night. We walked most places because of how close it was to everything, and Juan was awesome. Very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We would 100% go back.
