Combining tranquillity with an urban city centre backdrop, this humble home offers the best of both worlds, as you'll find peace and quiet here – all while reaping the benefits of the Lisbon city lifestyle. Quintessential Lisbon, the neighbourhood of Graca will give you a real flavour of the Portuguese way of life, from market stalls and street commerce to authentic shops and restaurants that continue to withstand the test of time – you'll enjoy the slower pace of life and laidback feel of this part of town. With yellow tramways, beautiful architecture and the stunning mosaic tiling decorating the colourful city, there's something to see as you turn almost every street corner. Retreat from the day's adventures to your cheerful studio, which offers both convenience and practicality. Compact inside, earthy hues add to the charm, and the art of simplicity transforms the space into a haven of serenity. Yet the real treat awaits you outside, as a vast communal space with sun loungers and an outdoor dining areal are available for use at your disposal, over in the shared terrace and garden area.

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.
