About this property

Elegant & Chic Old Town Studio

Elegant and cozy, this fully equipped studio places you in the heart of Alfama, Lisbon’s most charming and historic district. Located on a peaceful square near São Jorge Castle, the space includes a stylish living area, compact kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and a small but private bathroom. Ideal for short stays and urban exploration, with cafés, grocery stores, and the best of Lisbon’s Old Town just steps away.

Stay in the heart of historic Lisbon in this beautifully renovated designer studio, located on Castle Hill in the peaceful and picturesque square of Largo da Achada. Set within a fully restored 100-year-old building, completed in July 2021, the space offers a perfect blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort—ideal for solo travelers or couples looking for a stylish and serene city base.

The studio is filled with natural light from large windows that open to rooftop views of Alfama and glimpses of the Tagus River. Inside, you’ll find a comfortable double bed with a high-quality mattress, plush pillows, and crisp linens. The open-plan layout includes a spacious dining and living area, featuring a large table and modern chairs that work equally well for shared meals or remote work. Tasteful, curated décor and light-toned furnishings create a calm, inviting atmosphere.

A compact yet well-equipped kitchenette includes a Nespresso machine with pods, a mini fridge, stovetop, microwave, electric kettle, and a dishwasher, along with all the basic cookware and utensils you’ll need for light cooking. The private bathroom, while small, is functional and features a walk-in shower, a compact sink, and modern fixtures. Please note that the drainage area is limited, but ventilation is in place for added comfort.

Additional amenities include Wi-Fi, Smart TV with cable, a hairdryer, and essential cleaning supplies. Whether you're in Lisbon to explore its iconic sights or settle in for remote work in a beautiful, quiet corner of the city, this Alfama studio offers both charm and convenience.

Our studios are located in the most ancient quarter of the city: the famous Alfama! Specifically, in Largo da Achada, a tiny cobble-stoned square with a small drinking fountain in the Castle's Hill. The building facing the studio is one of Lisbon’s oldest houses built in the 1500s!

In this picturesque neighborhood composed of a maze of narrow streets, winding alleyways, and steep flights of steps you'll find most Fado houses, tiny squares, churches, and amazing lookout points. The 11th century Moorish Castle and Miradouro da Graça terrace are the best!

Small, comfortable property in a great location. The bed was comfortable and kitchen well equipped but the bathroom is very small. I'm fairly petite but anyone larger would struggle to get in and out of the shower and there is no space to dry yourself in the bathroom.

Old town Lisbon

Our stay was lovely. It was located in a historic part of Lisbon with a great view of the city. There are definitely steep stairs up to the 3rd floor, so be aware if you have more than a carry on bag. Thank you for the hospitality!

Small space, but amazing location

We could not have asked for a better location. So close to many of the places we enjoyed but not an overly touristy area. The space is small, but mostly served our needs and all of the fixtures were new and in great condition. The view of the city from the third-floor windows was incredible! The service at check-in was great and we received quick replies to all of our messages. Our only complaints were that the mattress could’ve been better quality (we could feel the inner springs through the material at night) and that the bathroom was extremely small (which we couldn’t see in the pictures). The shower was especially tight - there was barely enough room to turn around let alone lean down to reach your legs. Overall, we’d recommend staying here but would hope for a mattress upgrade and maybe some better photos of the bathroom so people know what to expect.

Beautiful Apt

This apartment is beautiful! They greeted us when we arrived and made sure they answered all our questions, and they provided some recommendations for the city! The apartment is small, shower is very tiny but overall is was beautiful and had everything you needed. Would definitely stay again!
