Overview
This charming, spacious and sunny apartment with a large terrace and extensive views over the old city and down to the harbour is located in one of historic Lisbon's most glamorous neighbourhoods the Chiado.
This is what has always been considered the noblest part of the city, with its quiet streets and squares lined with imposing mansions, museums, churches, art galleries, bookshops, and the odd government ministry. The nearby (less than a minute walk) Praca de Camões and Largo do Chiado (and its cafes Brasileira and Benard) are privileged meeting points for Lisboetas and tourists alike, who are drawn by the impressive concentration of theatres, exclusive shops and high quality restaurants.
The 28 tram stops around the corner from the flat, and it is not much farther to the Bica cable-car (elevador) or the metro. A ten-minute walk down the hill brings you to the Cais do Sodre train station (Estoril-Cascais line) or the ferry for trips across the Tagus.
World-famous theatres such as the Trindade or São Carlos Opera are close by, as is the more exuberant and down-to-earth Bairro Alto neighbourhood, where the streets become narrower and the nightlife more animated. This is the true home of the soulful fado music of old Lisbon, with a wide variety of venues quite literally at your fingertips.
Recently renovated, this large two-bedroom apartment (110 square meteres) is fully furnished and equipped with all the amenities needed to ensure that no matter how short your stay, you will feel very much 'at home' in the heart of the Portuguese capital.
It is located on the third floor (no elevator) of a residential building around the corner from the Ministry of the Economy. The main façade faces east with several large windows opening into the main living room, a smaller sitting room and the master bedroom, while the west façade opens onto the terrace (50 square metres), with direct access through the kitchen or sunroom.
Natural sunlight thus floods the apartment in both morning and afternoon.
The master bedroom has a double bed, while the second bedroom is provided with two single beds. Extra bed linen and towels are available. Baby bed, high chair and other child facilities can be provided on request at no extra charge.
The kitchen is fully equipped and supplied with all the culinary basics (coffee, tea, sugar, olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and other spices, etc.). If you prefer not to use the cooker, you can always try the barbecue grill on the terrace (charcoal provided).
Supermarket, grocer's, bakery, newsstand, cafes, hairdressers, banks, etc. are all very close indeed. Also, two covered parking garages are located within 100 metres.
Nearby is the Santa Catarina belvedere, with outstanding views over the harbour, while a short walk through Bairro Alto leads to the pretty Principe Real park, which has a play area for children.
The 28 tram takes about 10 minutes in one direction from the flat to reach the equally romantic Estrela Garden. In the other direction it passes through the Baixa shopping district before winding through the old neighbourhoods around St. George's Castle.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
