Lisbon is a legendary city with over 2000 years of history and Alfama is one of the oldest districts. Since it largely survived the earthquake of 1755, the area still retains much of its original layout. Adjacent to Alfama are the districts of Castelo and Mouraria, on the western and northern slopes of the hill that is crowned by Castelo de São Jorge. Every year in June, the streets of these districts come alive with festivities in honour of the popular saints. The Graça quarter and the churches of São Vicente de Fora and Santa Engrácia are within walking distance of this area. Radiant skies brighten this lovely city, with its typical azulejo covered façades and narrow streets, where one can hear Fado being played and sung at night. But Lisbon is also the stage for popular festivities, the place for exquisite shopping, exciting nightlife, and interesting museums.
Alfama I is a sophisticated 2 bedroom apartment. Both bedrooms contain twin beds, which can be easily joined as double beds. One bedroom has an en suite bathroom with bathtub and there is a second bathroom adjacent to the other bedroom. The main salon is divided into a comfortable living area and dining room, which features a large window looking out onto the street at the famous 28 tram that passes beneath the balcony. The city views are an amazing surprise! The second wonderful surprise is a spacious, terracotta-tiled terrace at the back of the house furnished with a table and chairs – a quiet and comfortable place to enjoy a drink or pleasant meal during spring and summer.
The spacious kitchen contains a stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher and fridge. There is also a washing machine in the apartment. Modern amenities at the disposal of guests include free high speed Internet access, DVD player, cable TV, air conditioning, heating and security alarm. The building has an elevator and limited paid parking which can be reserved in advance.
This is a cheerful, special apartment offering plenty of space and an ideal location to experience the city. Casa Alfama I and II can also be rented together to accommodate 8 people. These two completely renovated apartments in the heart of the historic centre are a real treasure.
