Alfama is often described as a living museum, with its narrow streets and alleys lined with colourful, weathered buildings. Many of these structures date back centuries, and their architecture reflects a mix of Moorish and European influences.
Dominating the skyline of Alfama is the São Jorge Castle (Castelo de São Jorge). This medieval fortress offers spectacular panoramic views of the city and the Tagus River. It\'s a must-visit for history enthusiasts and those seeking stunning vistas.
Alfama boasts several viewpoints (miradouros), offering breathtaking views of Lisbon and the river. These include the Miradouro das Portas do Sol and the Miradouro da Graça, excellent places to take in the scenery.

Be careful if you stay here…
I was very excited to be staying in Alfama and the apartment matched what I was expecting. The area it is in is not safe though. My mom was pick pocketed steps from the apartment which could happen in any tourist area but then the apartment was broken into and cash and electronics were taken. The building and apartment door use a code to enter which seems convenient but I do not think the codes are changed often enough. Lastly, we were staying for a week so I was hoping we could get fresh towels since they instruct you not to use the washing machine but that cost extra and had to be reserved 24 hours in advance. Based on our experience, I will be staying in a hotel rather than a Vrbo the next time we visit Portugal.

Right in the heart of historic Lisbon
Our stay was comfortable and convenient! This property was well-stocked and comfortable for relaxation and for planning our next adventure in Lisbon. Though we were right in the heart of the historic district it never felt too noisy — just very lively and active. So many things within walking distance! We loved it! No problems with check-In or management. We took advantage of the option to order the breakfast package to be in place when we arrived — so much food and so appreciated and needed. I would stay here again!

A nice place, but..
The apartment was as described, clean and accessible. We did have a couple of concerns: We noticed a couple of times when we returned to the building that the front door hadn't closed properly and wasn't locked. As it turns out, we were robbed the morning we were checking out - all my ID and money. When I phoned to tell the company they said they would phone me back but they never did. This lack of follow up was disappointing on a very stressful day. Also, on our second evening, we were happy that the company was so responsive when we let them know that we had no internet. They said they would follow up but did not and so, when they sent someone to help with the internet (again, happy for that part) we did not answer the intercom because we were not expecting anyone. The person was able to let themselves into the apartment on their own when we didn't open the door. It was creepy to see the door knob turning and not know what to expect. So, hard one to review for me - nice apartment but communication at critical times was poor.

Great local neighborhood
Great location in the Alfama - on the vintage tram line and a short walk to the castle. Delicious neighborhood restaurants and wine bars. Easy check-in, great communication, keyless entry.

My wife and I thorough enjoyed our stay. The modern apartment has everything you need to enjoy the same comfort you have at home, and is a short walking distance to the sites of historic Alfama.
Highly recommended!

Great stay in Alfama
We had so much fun exploring Lisboa and this was a great headquarters for our adventures. Pro: right next to a stop on the popular Cable car 28 route. Con: we did hear the cable car frequently. Luckily shutting the windows really shut out the sound.

Super séjour dans un appartement très agréable et très bien situé
La localisation est parfaite pour découvrir Lisbonne. L’appartement est calme malgré le tram qui passe juste au pied et très bien équipé. La procédure de Check in et out à distance permet une arrivée et un départ en toute liberté. Très pratique quand on a des horaires de vol très tôt.

Emplacement idéal
L’appartement est très bien placé , le fameux tramway 28 au pied de l’immeuble. Proche de tout ( visites, commerces et transports) et dans un quartier authentique de Lisbonne. Tout est faisable à pied. Il est très moderne et très bien équipé. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cet appartement. Les deux salles de bain bien appréciées. Nous n’avons pas eu de contact direct avec les gérants, mais le check in est bien détaillé et les informations claires pour accéder à l’appartement. Cela n’a pas été gênant pour nous. Nous recommandons cette location.
