Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This little place is a really bright flat, and all that natural light goes a long way to providing a positive atmosphere. As soon as you wake up each morning, you can hear the buzz of the city – just calling you out to explore it for yourself. Recently refurbished, and decorated in a modern minimal style, this home may not be huge but it's a comfortable base in one of Lisbon's most vibrant areas – away from the tourists but with plenty going on. Inside, it's all whites, natural wickers and pale woods, and there are statement touches of chipboard to act as quirky decoration. The kitchen area is small but pretty well-equipped considering, but with so many great places to eat nearby, we doubt you'll be cooking at home that often anyway. Here you'll be just a couple of minutes walk from the National Museum of Ancient Art and the Alcântara Marina.

Home truths
This home is on the ground floor of a busy street – as the windows are single-glazed, it can get quite noisy (especially as there's construction across the road)
The ceilings feel quite low so it's not ideal if you're on the tall side
It is lacking a little storage space for clothes
In a layout quirk that you don't often see, you have to walk through the shower room to access the bedroom and the separate toilet – so this place is really only suitable for a single traveller or a couple
There's paid-for parking off-premises – speak to the host

About Alcântara
With the booming of tourism in Lisbon in the past few years, some areas have inevitably changed. Alcantara is not one of them. Its name stems from the Arabic word for 'bridge' which is, as anyone who strolls through Alcântara will realize, a very literal name.
