We can not say enough great things about River View "Traveller's Nest." We have travelled extensively throughout Europe, Caribbean and United States for pleasure and business and this is by far the best place we have ever stayed. It is even more beautiful than the photos. The space is big, bright, airy, clean and so comfortable with that amazing river view. Important comment here: my husband is extremely claustrophobic and this apartment was heaven for him. Other claustrophobics will understand. The entry, though up three easy flights of stairs, is wide and bright. The apartment itself just as I said above. It is equipped with everything you need. Tons of Windows make it easy to control the temperature and brightness or darkness (curtains and shutters on all but a few.) Location: perfect. Located in a lovely wide-wide-alleyway just above Sao Miguel and just below the terraced Largo das Porto do Sol. Easy access to everything in Alfama (close to the Castle) and surrounding areas. With good sneakers we were able to cover all of central Lisbon on foot from the apartment including as far as Santo Amara, Alcantara, all along the riverfront, Graca, Barrio Alto, Baixa, Chiado.... You get the point. We highly recommend Traveller's Nest and hope to stay here again (next time bringing our daughter and son in law as there is plenty of room in this Alfama mini-mansion.) Thank you Susana and Bia!
