The Chiado loft is, as the photos show, stylish and well designed to make for a comfortable short break in the city and despite being on the 5th floor I didn't find the stairs too much of a challenge and I'm getting on in years!

For us, the most important aspect after the accommodation itself was Pedro's communication. He's good, very good; answered all our mails promptly and efficiently (our flight was changed) and was still there to meet us after a flight delay.

Small but stylish, the loft close to really good transport links around the city, particularly good if it's raining, and I imagine that the balcony would be a great place to have a glass of wine and a takeaway sushi from the fabulous Sea Me restaurant just 200 metres away - shame it was too cold and wet when we were there!
