Fado in the Alfama

This minimalist Lisbon crashpad is in the perfect location to discover the soul of the Portuguese capital. Our favourite thing to do is wander the labyrinthine streets that wind up and down the steep hillside with no real plan, save for a growing desire to eat all the pastel de nata. So don your most comfortable shoes and get lost in Alfama, the views from the hilltop miradouras (viewpoints) serve to refuel you after the climbs. The views, and water. Don't forget to take a bottle with you. And if you get lost? Leave your phone in your pocket and just head downhill. All roads lead to the River Tagus, eventually.
