With a rather regal feel, this immaculate home is set in one of Lisbon's oldest and most picturesque neighbourhoods. An apartment within a period building, it's a picture of elegant minimalism, allowing the character features to take centre stage. All white wood-panelled walls, ornate plaster ceilings and shuttered windows make a striking contrast against the warm wood tones of the floors, while the narrow balconies allow guests to open the home to the fresh air. Bright and spacious, it's a cool and calming place to call home, with scarce designer furniture, a modern kitchen and two comfortable bedrooms. In the heart of old Lisbon, Bairro Alto is one of the busiest parts of town, always buzzing with excitement – so be ready for non-stop fun if you're keen to stay in the area.

About Bairro Alto
Bairro Alto is the place to be if you’re coming to Lisbon with an appetite for nightlife. This atmospheric area comes alive after dark with hole-in-the-wall bars – that look like nondescript doorways during the daylight hours – and intimate fado sessions. Tourists and locals alike take to the pedestrianised streets with sway in their step, sipping cocktails under rainbow-coloured bunting. Some say this is the heart of Lisbon, and...
