The Fisherman

With the Praça do Comércio and Tagus riverfront right on your doorstep, you'd be hard-pushed to find a better location for first-time visitors wanting to explore the city. The recently renovated building boasts a concierge and lift and new windows that do an excellent job of blocking the street noise from the busy Baixa neighbourhood outside. The living room’s bold artwork and striking petrol blue velvet sofas work well with the bright and open space. Step out, and you'll find yourself right in the heart of Lisbon's most central and liveliest neighbourhood, with some of the city's most exciting shops and cafes right on your doorstep. Just around the corner, you'll find the elegant Praça do Comércio. Elsewhere, you'll find the beautiful gothic ruins of Convento do Carmo, sumptuous food at Time Out Market, and the fascination Museu do Fado no more than fifteen minutes away. Finally, for breathtaking views over the city's terracotta roofs, hop on the iconic number 28 tram and trundle through Alfama and up to the hilltop neighbourhood of Graça.
