Exquisite, charming building dating back hundreds of years, recently renovated.
Located in Alfama, one of the best spots in Lisbon’s historic center, and its most authentic and picturesque neighborhood.
It offers a large terrace with a superb view over the Tagus River and Alfama’s iconic rooftops.
This premium space offers a high standard of comfort, plenty of natural sunlight, and elaborate golden decor.
It can host up to 12 people.
This magnificent property comprises two separate apartments in the same building, rented together. It is spread across four floors, with a modern open interior staircase:
- Ground floor: Apartment with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, and shower.
- First floor: Large suite with a bathroom and shower (separate entrance).
- Second floor: Two bedrooms (one with a double bed and the other with two single beds) and a bathroom with a shower.
- Third floor: Two bedrooms (one with a double bed and the other with two single beds), a bathroom, and a shower.
- Fourth floor: Living room with a sofa, armchairs, and a large terrace with a superb view over the Tagus River and Alfama.
A defining characteristic of this building is the abundance of natural light. Thanks to the large windows and iron balconies, light pours into the interior from every angle, all day long.
Bedding and towels are provided, as well as shampoo, shower gel, hand soap, and body lotion. Additional amenities include Wi-Fi, cable TV, air conditioning, a dishwasher, washer and dryer, coffee machine, toaster, and hair dryer.
A stay here feels like traveling back in time. At Portuguese Soul Alfama, you will be immersed in an awe-inspiring environment with golden paintings and walls, intricately decorated ceilings, vintage furniture, traditional Portuguese tiles, and a multitude of striking crystal chandeliers.
Portuguese Soul, the perfect place to nourish both your mind and soul.
This apartment is not suitable for people with mobility restrictions or young children.
The property consists of four apartments (I, II, III, and IV) available for individual rental (with capacities of 10, 5, 2, and 2 people, respectively) or as a whole (accommodating up to 19 people). If your desired dates are unavailable, please check the availability of our other apartments. It is possible to combine two or more apartments to accommodate a larger group.
Since the apartment is located in a historic area, cars are not permitted on the narrow street. However, the nearest point for a taxi or Uber drop-off (in front of the Fado Museum) is just a 3-minute walk away.
For parking, you can park near the Fado Museum (free at night), which is only a 3-minute walk from the apartment. Alternatively, there is parking available at Campo das Cebolas, about a 10-minute walk away. In our opinion, a car won’t be necessary, as many attractions are within walking distance.
We offer self check-in, with entry codes sent to guests prior to arrival. Early check-in and late check-out are available upon request, subject to availability, at no extra cost.
The apartment is equipped with a home alarm system and a safe box for your convenience.
NOTE: Attention for June!
Lisbon is known for its June street parties and Alfama is the heart of those festivities. Throughout old Lisbon, there are "arraiais" (old word for open-air party), where local restaurants set up shop on the streets and barbecue and grill sardines, etc. and people go drinking and dancing. On the nights of the 9th, 12th 23rd and 27th of June, the narrow streets become extremely crowded with local parties. Although it is a great atmosphere, it is very loud well into the night. If you want peace in June, Alfama is not the indicated neighborhood for you. However, if you are looking to be in the center of the action, then there is, without a doubt, no better place.
