This modern studio flat perfectly suits a solo traveller or a couple wanting to explore Lisbon's vibrant culture and history. It's not the biggest, but it still has everything you need for a fuss-free stay in the capital, including a quaint kitchenette, super comfortable bed and sleek bathroom with a luxe rainfall shower. You can even spot the top of the Basilica da Estrela out the window – a rarity for a ground floor flat. But the best part about this place is the excellent location. Bairro Alto, known as Lisbon's bohemian district, is home to trendy restaurants, lively Fado bars, old-style cafes, art galleries and independent shops. Check out the many beautiful churches sprinkled across this vibrant neighbourhood, or hop on one of the iconic trams and weave your way up into the hills. This is the perfect spot to go exploring – you're only a four-minute walk from Miradouro São Pedro de Alcântara (one of the best viewpoints in the city) and just a twenty-minute stroll from the historic city centre.

Home truths
This is a studio apartment, so there is no separation between the kitchen, living area and the bedroom
It’s set on the ground floor, making it a great option for those with limited mobility
This apartment has a kitchenette, not a full kitchen – it’s perfectly suited for light breakfasts of tea, toast and pastries, but we recommend eating lunch and dinner at one of the excellent restaurants in this neighbourhood
Please respect the quiet hours between 11pm and 8am
There’s no washer or dryer here, but there is a self-service laundromat around the corner
When we visited the Wi-Fi wasn’t as strong as we would have liked (only 18Mbps)
