Step into the soul of Lisbon at Rua das Escolas Gerais 130, 3º Direito — nestled in the heart of Alfama, the city’s most iconic and atmospheric neighborhood. Known for its maze of narrow streets, tile-covered façades, and the haunting sounds of Fado echoing from tucked-away taverns, Alfama offers a truly authentic Lisbon experience.
Set within the historic São Vicente parish, you’re surrounded by landmarks like the majestic São Vicente de Fora Church and the National Pantheon, steeped in centuries of history.
Just steps away, soak in sweeping views from the Miradouro de Santa Luzia, explore the ancient Lisbon Cathedral (Sé), or hop on the legendary Tram 28, which winds its way past Alfama’s best-kept secrets.
Whether you're strolling cobblestone alleys or catching the sunset over the Tagus, this location blends culture, charm, and convenience — right at your doorstep.
Guests can access the apartment easily and independently using a key box. There’s no need for in-person interaction upon arrival.
Once inside, you’ll find multiple keys available for your group to use during your stay. The entire apartment is exclusively for you, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout your visit.
This spacious and thoughtfully designed home comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests, making it ideal for families, groups of friends, or work retreats. There are four private bedrooms, each furnished with a comfortable 160 x 200 cm bed, offering a restful and quiet space to unwind after a day exploring the city.
In addition to the bedrooms, the living area features a high-quality sofa bed (also 160 x 200 cm), providing extra sleeping space without compromising comfort. With a generous layout, the home offers both privacy and communal areas where guests can gather, dine, and relax together.
There are 1.5 bathrooms in the home. The main bathroom is spacious and fully equipped, while the second is a smaller half bathroom that still includes all essential facilities and functions.

We provide portable air conditioners in each bedroom to help keep you cool and comfortable during your stay. We also supply fans for additional airflow and comfort throughout the apartment. Please note that in bedrooms without windows, a portable AC may not perform efficiently because it requires proper ventilation.

We always equip each room with the cooling solution that works best for its layout, so you can enjoy a pleasant stay.
Getting around is easy and convenient from this centrally located home.

This property was in a great area with lots of restaurants and things to do nearby. It was also right on the tram line. It is in the third floor with no elevator and narrow, steep stairs so hauling luggage was tough. The bathroom stunk of sewage and the entire apartment is not as nice as the photos. It was very small and cramped, could barely walk around the beds in some rooms. The second bathroom is borderline unusable with only a shower and toilet virtually on top of each other. Overall not great for what we paid.
