This apartment in the bustling Bairro Alto area of Lisbon has serious character and style. The mix of moody dark blues and blacks with dark wooden flooring and crisp white walls gives a vibe that's chic, dramatic and elegantly charming. You'll be central enough to enjoy Lisbon at your fingertips while having enough space and privacy to relax a little while you're here too. Tucked away on a vibrant side street but less than ten minutes walk to some of the city's best boutiques, bars and restaurants – it’s in the perfect position for exploring the Portuguese capital. Hop on the famous 28 tram from the bottom of the road, and the rest of the city will be yours in no time. From here, you'll be just a five-minute walk away from the local grocery stores and shops, but most importantly – Rue da Rosa is only a two-minute stroll away from your front door – which homes the districts liveliest street and buzzing nightlife. Sip sangria with the locals and other tourists until the early hours, all while knowing you won't have to go far when you're ready to retreat back to bed.

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.
