Lisbon is having a moment right now. The beating heart of Portugal, this glossy tile-lined city boasts glittering sea views, a rich history and a mouth-watering foodie culture. Hours and hours can be spent wandering the narrow, cobbled streets, hopping on and off trams, sipping port in the street and clutching warm pastéis de nata in brown paper bags. This recently renovated apartment could not be more perfectly placed. Situated in a 100-year-old building, with the 11th century Castelo de São Jorge as your neighbour, it offers an interior that's streamlined and functional, enriched by little historical features an expert's eye can immediately pick out – there’s even Portuguese marble in the bathroom. We really love the sunny terrace with views of the castle – take a hot coffee out here and watch the world go by.

Local guide
About Mouraria
With street performers, Fado shows and lots of unmissable sights, Mouraria should be at the top of your list. A trip through its narrow streets is like stepping back in time, revisiting the rich cultural background even before the great earthquake of 1755. In fact, the story goes that Fado was born in Mouraria, and it’s since made its way to the UNESCO World Heritage list. Although it’s quite central, this neighbourhood has a strong local community and an independent art scene that will show you a side of old, nostalgic Lisbon that you won’t find anywhere else.
