This playful pad offers a central location and places you in a prime spot for exploring Lisbon's cultural landmarks on foot. Even for ventures further afield, you'll find Graça bus stop is only a minute's walk away. We think it's ideal for families and groups of friends, with a private outside dining terrace complete with a barbecue, as well as plenty of indoor space to relax. The colourful bedrooms will have you up and raring to go come morning – and just as well, with so much to see and do nearby. Note that there's no lift here, so be prepared to climb three flights of stairs to reach the apartment.

Local guide


About Graça

Graça is the highest point of Lisbon's seven hills, sitting just above the beautiful Alfama. You’ll find some of the best views of the city in this neighbourhood. Wind your way slowly up and down the cobbled streets, pausing at viewpoints to take in the pastel-painted walls of Alfama. The downside to the incredible views is the steepness of Graça – we advise taking it steady and calling in to local bars and restaurants for regular energy-boosts. As the sun sets over Lisbon, you’ll find your efforts in finding the perfect terrace worthwhile.
