Silvia's charming apartment is located in the heart of Chiado/ Bairro Alto in an original Lisbon style house. As it is on the 5th floor (the steps are easy to climb) it catches plenty of sunlight and from the eating area you have a glimpse of a view over the Tejo river and a castle. On the other side of the apartment you have a cute little balcony were you can drink your coffee in the morning.
The apartment itself... We felt like home immediately. Silvia has a good taste of mixing interiors. It is a mix between simple, kind of scandinavian chic but also some really beautiful vintage furniture and accessories. The walls are still covered with portuguese ceramics, that makes it special as well.
The kitchen and bathroom are well equipped.
The location is perfect. Just around the corner you have plenty of restaurants, mini markets, small boutiques but also a bigger shopping street.
As well we are thankful for Silvia's recommendations regarding restaurants, places to see etc. and the organisation on our arrival day as well as on the day we checked out were absolutely uncomplicated.
We would highly recommend this place and would love to come back one day :).
