Recommendation

Where to Stay in Lisbon

Baixa & Chiado

These two adjacent neighborhoods form the true center of Lisbon. Baixa is the flat, 18th-century grid of grand plazas and pedestrian streets, while Chiado is the elegant, hilltop district known for historic cafés, theaters, and shopping. Staying here puts you walking distance to almost everything.

Alfama

Alfama is Lisbon's oldest quarter, a tangled distinct village of narrow cobblestone lanes, laundry drying on balconies, and the haunting sounds of Fado music. It survived the 1755 earthquake and retains a medieval, Moorish atmosphere. It’s romantic, scenic, and feels like stepping back in time.

Príncipe Real

Príncipe Real is the sophisticated, trendy older sibling to the chaotic Bairro Alto. It’s defined by its glorious central garden, 19th-century mansions, and high-end concept stores. This is the place for design lovers, brunch, and boutique shopping.

Bairro Alto

By day, Bairro Alto is a sleepy collection of colorful streets and laundry lines. By night, it transforms into the city’s wildest party district. Hundreds of tiny bars open their doors, and crowds spill out onto the street with cheap beer and caipirinhas. Stay here if you want to party; avoid it if you want sleep.
