About this property

Sun light, views, comfort and the Castle at your feet

Alfama 5 is on the first floor (no lift) of an old building recently fully refurbished.
Renovation was complete and carefully accomplished: pre-existing old materials like the wooden floor and ceilings were incorporated with the new. Apartment has now a modern and well equipped kitchen and a full bathroom, functional bedrooms with large closets and air conditioning (heat and cold) in the living room.
Decoration is sober in a cheerful family style that makes the flat very cozy.

The apartment can accommodate up to 4 people with full comfort. It is composed of a living room and dinning area, modern kitchen and two bedrooms with double beds. A full bathroom and a small storage room complete the apartment.
Alfama 5 has a small balcony and two large windows that let in lots of sunlight. Balcony faces the little square in front of the entrance to the Castle with really nice views and the Castle is literally at your feet.

Excellent Position
It was very good. There are 17 internal stairs as advertised and the front door doesn't open properly because it's too close to the first stairs. Suggest notching the first stairs maybe? Anyway the apartment was lovely. The main pictured bedroom was very bright and had two doors opening onto a small Juliette balcony which then looked down onto the entrance to the castle. It was fun to watch people and at night listen to music being played. The mattress was quite firm but not uncomfortable. The second room is smaller but has a window which let in plenty of light. The bathroom was fine and the kitchen was well equipped, not that we ate in much. The apartment is easily within walking distance of the city sights. Rui was very good at explaining things and he supplied a map to a few things in relation to the apartment. If you're going to need the grocery store then double check how to find it before the host leaves because we got lost and then found it tucked under another building and accessed both by stairs and a lift. All in all the apartment was excellent.

Great location - clean and spacious
Four of us stayed for 4 nights. Plenty of space and privacy, excellent facilities, including toiletries and laundry tablets. We loved the location of the property, opposite St George Castle entrance. Great to people-watch from the two large balcony windows. Easy communication with host who organised transfers for us to/from airport.

Très bel emplacement (malgré le fait que c’est en haut de la montagne). Je suggère d’utiliser le transport en commun ou le taxi si plusieurs allez-retour entre le haut et le bas de la ville. L’air climatisé n’était pas performante. Toutefois, l’ouverture des fenêtres assurait une très bonne ventilation de l’appartement.

The location was great, and we were greeted at the door when we arrived (later than planned due to plane delays). The apartment was perfect for my family (myself,husband, 15 month old and my mom). Highly recommend!

Nice Place in a Good Location
We enjoyed our stay in this very livable space - kitchen, laundry, multiple spaces for spreading out and relaxing. The location is good for exploring. It's bit noisy at night with local peacocks (who live at the castle next door) and humans - making bird sounds and rolling out recycling. Overall happy with the stay!

Great location!
Situated right beside Castle St. Jorge is perfect location in the Alfama district. Clean, bright and spacious enough for 4 people. Great communication with our host, Mario. Surprisingly quiet given the foot traffic through the streets. Very comfortable stay.

Beautiful area, well supplied and clean. Furnishings need updating: beds were not the most comfortable, but were sleepable; shower fixture was a little low and mount was broken.

Super apparyement op superplek
DE hotspot, en leukste buurt om te zitten, pal naast de entree van het Castelo do Sao Jorge. 0verdag van 9:00 tot 18:00 totaal gekkenhuis maar ook wel eens leuk om in te zitten, je went eraan, ramen dicht hoor je niks, daarna en snachts uitgestoven stil en geen verkeer door te smalle straatjes. Plus tegenover verse pastel de nata, terrasjes, fijne supermarkt dichtbij en super klein/super lekker/speciaal restaurantje (vijf tafeltjes). Oud huis, prima opgeknapt, er ontbreekt niets.

Great apartment in the heart of old Lisbon
We stayed four different places during our trip to Portugal and all were lovely, but this was our favorite. The apartment is literally right next to the castle and it's lively there during the day, but quiets right down after the castle closes. We were able to comfortably walk to every area of historic Lisbon. The hosts were excellent about communication and went out of their way to let us store our bags there when our plane arrived well before check-in time. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to make our own simple meals. The market is also a short walk away. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Lisbon.

La vie de château …ou presque.
Ce qui nous a impressionné de Mario et ses collègues ce sont les petites attentions: leur accueil chaleureux,une réserve de café, du savon pour la lessiveuse, des informations imagées et claires sur l’environnement immédiat et les services. Petite suggestion : un séchoir portatif pliable pour les vêtements pourrait être très utile en cas de mauvais temps. La proximité du château et l’ambiance festive du quartier peuvent générer du bruit surtout les soirs de fin de semaine mais nous en étions conscients avant notre arrivée. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans l’ensemble .

Perfect base for exploring Lisbon
Great location right next to the castle makes a very enjoyable and atmospheric stay. Very near bus stop and tram 28 and easy to walk to centre of town. Good communication with Mario before stay and someone to meet us there on arrival. The coffee machine was much appreciated. Also good to have a bath. The only negative for me was that the beds are very hard so I found it difficult to sleep but that may suit people who like hard beds. Thank you Mario for a great stay

Great location, well equipped home
We loved staying by the castle in Lisboa! It is on top of a hill, so be prepared for a lot of walking but the location and views are worth it. The home was perfectly equipped with everything we needed and we enjoyed saving money by making espresso at home. There are big nice closets with full length mirrors. Mario was super communicative from start to finish. My only downside is that the bed was a little hard, not a big deal for a short stay, otherwise everything was great.
