Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located in Alfama, one of Lisbon's oldest areas, there's plenty of attractions here. Hop on the historic no. 28 tram, which meanders through the neighbourhood up to the 11th-century São Jorge Castle. Or, simply take in the atmosphere here as you wander through its medieval maze of streets – we can see why this district has inspired so many poets and novelists over the years. If you want to learn about traditional and popular fado music, check out the Museu do Fado, under a fifteen-minute walk away. Housed in a classic 1950's building, this modern and immaculate home with its grey tones offers a calm backdrop for your Lisbon escape. It's perfectly designed for families or friends travelling together. We love the fantastic views of the city and River Tagus from the balcony. Enjoy some pastéis de nata at the breakfast bar, or the chef of the group can cook some caldo verde in the modern kitchen. Whatever you decide to do here, we're sure you'll have a wonderful time.

Local guide
About Graça
Graça is the highest point of Lisbon's seven hills, sitting just above the beautiful Alfama. You’ll find some of the best views of the city in this neighbourhood. Wind your way slowly up and down the cobbled streets, pausing at viewpoints to take in the pastel-painted walls of Alfama. The downside to the incredible views is the steepness of Graça – we advise taking it steady and calling in to local bars and restaurants for regular energy-boosts. As the sun sets over Lisbon, you’ll find your efforts in finding the perfect terrace worthwhile.
