Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This Lisbon loft is in the charming residential neighbourhood of Estrela, so you can live like a local. It has heaps of space, including a bright, open-plan living area where you can cook, dine, and relax. The free-standing bathtub is a real treat (especially after clocking up lots of sightseeing steps), and the large walk-in closet offers plenty of room to unpack or store your souvenir shopping. Don’t miss a trip to nearby Belém, home to museums, monuments, and the bakery where the city’s famous pastel de nata (custard tart) was created.

Local guide
About Estrela
The urban settlement in Estrela was founded in the 18th Century when Lisbon expanded and nobility started building in the area. With the majestic architectural standard established, Estrela has maintained a high number of well-preserved palaces and mansions. This neighbourhood is a great place to stay if you want to escape the mass tourism of Central Lisbon. It's more of a rest and recharge zone, far away from the city...
