Home truths

    You won't have a physical key here – you'll be able to access this home using a dedicated smartphone app.

    Though there's enough bed space for six people here, we'd recommend a maximum guest count of four – at full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room.

    Your host can provide a cot for free upon request.

    We think some areas of this home could do with a refresh. In particular, some of the furniture look a little tired.

    We think the kitchen is better suited to lighter bites than large meals.

    The washing machine here is shared with the building's other residents.

    Your host asks that you keep noise to a minimum after 9pm.

    You won't find a manual for this home.

Local guide


About Estrela

The urban settlement in Estrela was founded in the 18th Century when Lisbon expanded and nobility started building in the area. With the majestic architectural standard established, Estrela has maintained a high number of well-preserved palaces and mansions. This neighbourhood is a great place to stay if you want to escape the mass tourism of Central Lisbon. It's more of a rest and recharge zone, far away from the city...
