Located in the lively Bairro Alto district, this modern apartment brims with character. The living space is the heart of the home – it’s geared up for both entertaining and relaxing. Spend mornings curled up on the sofa, lost in a good book, and evenings sharing homemade grub and bottles of wine around the dining table. Relax in the golden Iberian sunshine on the terrace before heading out into the atmospheric streets that surround your home. Wander over to the Carmo Convent, a reminder of the destructive earthquake of 1755, then mosey down to Praça do Comércio to admire the egg-yolk-yellow Pombaline-style buildings. If you’re feeling peckish, catch the iconic 28 tram to Alfama for traditional tascas or sample the upscale restaurants of elegant Chiado.

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.
