Enter this splendid apartment and feel yourself instantly transported back in time – this is a unique home, with rich history and plenty of character. Originally part of an ancient convent, the house, which dates back to 1512, was destroyed during the 1755 earthquake. Restored and converted into an apartment, it still carries more than a little of its former grandeur. While the shortage of natural light might be a downside for some, we actually love the slightly sombre yet cosy feel of the place, and warm lighting and gorgeous furnishings will make you feel instantly welcome. There is something of a museum-like feel about this place – and we mean this in the best possible way. How often do you find yourself wanting to lounge about period sofas and look inside antique books while wandering around museums? Well, here you get the chance to realise this dream – history is your playground. But it isn’t all old-school artefacts – there are enough modern touches to make your stay comfortable, and you’ll find all the necessary amenities to have a truly relaxed and restful time. The feeling of being steeped in history extends beyond the walls of the apartment itself...Read more – outside your front door, you’ll find yourself in the very heart of Alfama, the oldest and most characterful of Lisbon’s districts. You’ll be in the ideal spot from which to explore and enjoy all of the wonders this magical city has to offer. Read less
