Peaceful retreat on the highest hill of Lisbon
We loved this apartment as well as the surrounding neighborhood of Graca. Located just a few short blocks from a pastry shop, butcher, fruit/vegetable markets, cafes, restaurants, as well as a full supermarket, it was easy to make this a real home for a week. You could easily stay in/near Graca the whole time, with the Miradouro da Nossa Senhora do Monte, the Nossa Senhora da Graça Church and Convent, and the São Jorge Castle, in easy walking distance. If you don't mind hills, you can also easily reach other neighborhoods, including Alfama, on foot. If you do mind hills, or just get tired, you are close to the 28 Tram (though we didn't use it), or can easily access both taxis and Ubers.
Our hosts were prompt and helpful both before and during the trip (with restaurant recommendations, airport transfer, and accommodating an earlier-than-expected arrival). The apartment itself is a spacious studio that is perfect for a couple, but can also accommodate up to (4) people. Both the bed and the couch were comfortable. But the highlight of the space is the location at the end of a private row -- it gets excellent light and air all day long, and includes a courtyard with tables and chairs that we used every single day.
Finally, the hosts provided several extra touches that made us feel right at home including coffee, fruit, wine, and toiletries. We would most definitely recommend this space to others and will stay here again if we get a chance to return to Lisbon.
