Heartstring's Pull

Located in Lisbon's elegant and bohemian Chiado neighbourhood, within a beautiful building facing the historic Teatro da Trindade, you'll find this spacious and impeccably decorated city centre apartment. The decor here is understated, so despite the modern styling, it doesn't clash with the period of the building. And with so much interior space, there's easily enough space for eight guests – and there's not a sofa bed in sight. Yet, if you need even more space, your accommodating host Mauro owns two additional flats in the same building, so you could always stage a family or friends takeover of most of the building. In terms of location, you couldn't be better placed to explore Lisbon's historic neighbourhoods on foot. You'll find a highly rated Brazilian-Portuguese fish restaurant just downstairs, the gothic church ruins of Convento do Carmo one minute from your front door and a twelve-minute walk to the curated Time Out Market. So pack your most comfortable trainers and prepare to hike up and down some hills as you get to know the best of this charismatic city.


Home truths:
*You'll have to take the stairs to the second floor, as there's no lift
*There are three bathrooms, but one is really only a toilet and a sink, while another is an ensuite, which means that as many as six people will have to share one shower
*The atmospheric square below the flat can get quite busy, so expect to hear some noise in the rooms overlooking it
*Check-in between 10pm-8am is subject to a €25 surcharge
*The Wi-Fi can be temperamental
