Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Staying in this home is a bit like exploration at first – it might seem simple and minimalist, but there's a great number of details hidden all around. You can tell the hosts are artists, and they've selected each piece with care. Even though this home doesn't have as much natural light as it deserves, The Talking Heads maximises on its assets with clever lighting. We loved the large vintage mirror in the living room that makes the space even bigger.

Home truths

    The home is in a lively central area, which means there could be noise during the night – light sleepers beware

    As the home is located on the ground floor, some might feel a bit exposed to the street

    Although there is no AirCon, there is a Dyson Air Cooler, which is admittedly, cool

    The beds in the second bedroom are oddly arranged and feel quite close together

Local guide


About Saldanha

Saldanha is the uptown business district of Lisbon, filled with designer shops and upscale restaurants that contrast the modern buildings where many locals spend their working days. But it's not like Saldanha closes down after five – there's plenty of residents who appreciate the neighbourhood's sleek look. As a consequence, Saldanha has a great fresh food market, a few cosy cafes, parks and everything else you might need for a great stay. The traffic connections are fast and abundant, meaning most parts of Central Lisbon are only a short train ride away.
