Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Laidback and homely, this apartment in the heart of bustling Bairro Alto is the perfect landing pad for a family or group of friends. After a restful snooze in the comfortable bedrooms, come together around the dining table to hash out the day’s plans over a light breakfast, rustled up in your fully-equipped kitchen. Finish the dregs of your coffee on the Juliet balcony then pull on your walking shoes and hit the streets. Follow Calçada do Combro into the heart of Chiado for a spot of shopping and a visit to the Livraria Bertrand – the world’s oldest bookshop. Hop on the iconic Tram 28 to Praça do Comércio for unfettered views of the Tagus River. When you’re feeling peckish, fill up on Portuguese fare in the Time Out Market or seek out a traditional tasca for a no-fuss, hearty lunch.

Local guide
About Saldanha
Saldanha is the uptown business district of Lisbon, filled with designer shops and upscale restaurants that contrast the modern buildings where many locals spend their working days. But it's not like Saldanha closes down after five – there's plenty of residents who appreciate the neighbourhood's sleek look. As a consequence, Saldanha has a great fresh food market, a few cosy cafes, parks and everything else you might need for a great stay. The traffic connections are fast and abundant, meaning most parts of Central Lisbon are only a short train ride away.
