About this property

Sun light, views, comfort and the Castle at your feet

Alfama 5 is on the first floor (no lift) of an old building recently fully refurbished.
Renovation was complete and carefully accomplished: pre-existing old materials like the wooden floor and ceilings were incorporated with the new. Apartment has now a modern and well equipped kitchen and a full bathroom, functional bedrooms with large closets and air conditioning (heat and cold) in the living room.
Decoration is sober in a cheerful family style that makes the flat very cozy.

The apartment can accommodate up to 4 people with full comfort. It is composed of a living room and dinning area, modern kitchen and two bedrooms with double beds. A full bathroom and a small storage room complete the apartment.
Alfama 5 has a small balcony and two large windows that let in lots of sunlight. Balcony faces the little square in front of the entrance to the Castle with really nice views and the Castle is literally at your feet.

The location was great, the apartment was clean and the host was amazing. The only issue was that we could hear everything that was going on in the apartment upstairs, as if there was no sound proofing. There was a lot of noises during the night or early in the morning, so we did not sleep well at all during our stay.

Nice Place in a Good Location

We enjoyed our stay in this very livable space - kitchen, laundry, multiple spaces for spreading out and relaxing. The location is good for exploring. It's bit noisy at night with local peacocks (who live at the castle next door) and humans - making bird sounds and rolling out recycling. Overall happy with the stay!

Great location - clean and spacious

Four of us stayed for 4 nights. Plenty of space and privacy, excellent facilities, including toiletries and laundry tablets. We loved the location of the property, opposite St George Castle entrance. Great to people-watch from the two large balcony windows. Easy communication with host who organised transfers for us to/from airport.

The location was great, and we were greeted at the door when we arrived (later than planned due to plane delays). The apartment was perfect for my family (myself,husband, 15 month old and my mom). Highly recommend!

Great location!

Situated right beside Castle St. Jorge is perfect location in the Alfama district. Clean, bright and spacious enough for 4 people. Great communication with our host, Mario. Surprisingly quiet given the foot traffic through the streets. Very comfortable stay.

Beautiful area, well supplied and clean. Furnishings need updating: beds were not the most comfortable, but were sleepable; shower fixture was a little low and mount was broken.

Perfect base for exploring Lisbon

Great location right next to the castle makes a very enjoyable and atmospheric stay. Very near bus stop and tram 28 and easy to walk to centre of town. Good communication with Mario before stay and someone to meet us there on arrival. The coffee machine was much appreciated. Also good to have a bath. The only negative for me was that the beds are very hard so I found it difficult to sleep but that may suit people who like hard beds. Thank you Mario for a great stay

Great apartment in the heart of old Lisbon

We stayed four different places during our trip to Portugal and all were lovely, but this was our favorite. The apartment is literally right next to the castle and it's lively there during the day, but quiets right down after the castle closes. We were able to comfortably walk to every area of historic Lisbon. The hosts were excellent about communication and went out of their way to let us store our bags there when our plane arrived well before check-in time. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to make our own simple meals. The market is also a short walk away. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Lisbon.

Excellent Position

It was very good. There are 17 internal stairs as advertised and the front door doesn't open properly because it's too close to the first stairs. Suggest notching the first stairs maybe? Anyway the apartment was lovely. The main pictured bedroom was very bright and had two doors opening onto a small Juliette balcony which then looked down onto the entrance to the castle. It was fun to watch people and at night listen to music being played. The mattress was quite firm but not uncomfortable. The second room is smaller but has a window which let in plenty of light. The bathroom was fine and the kitchen was well equipped, not that we ate in much. The apartment is easily within walking distance of the city sights. Rui was very good at explaining things and he supplied a map to a few things in relation to the apartment. If you're going to need the grocery store then double check how to find it before the host leaves because we got lost and then found it tucked under another building and accessed both by stairs and a lift. All in all the apartment was excellent.

Location trĂšs bien placĂ©e, trĂšs sympa. Malheureusement, l’appartement est mal insonorisĂ© avec l’appartement au dessus. Et les camions poubelles s’arrĂȘtent de minuit Ă  1h devant toutes les nuits. Et avec les fenĂȘtres ouvertes c’est difficile de bien dormir. C’est le seul point nĂ©gatif.

Great location minor comfort issue.

Our recent stay was a mixed experience. The location is excellent—right below the entrance to the castle, which made it very convenient for sightseeing. However, this also meant it was quite noisy, especially throughout the day and evening.The apartment itself was generally comfortable and nicely kept, but a few more amenities would have made the stay more relaxing. A coffee table and a more spacious or cozy seating area would’ve been appreciated—after a long day of walking, there wasn’t really a good place to put your feet up and unwind.The beds were comfortable, which we appreciated, but there were a few issues with the bedding. There were no top sheets provided, and the duvets or comforters seemed in need of a fresh cleaning.Overall, it was a decent stay in a great location, but with a few small improvements, it could be much better.
