  Please see floor plan

Apartments 1, 2, 10, 31, 55 60, 90 and 103 are located in the district of Pena. Number 10, 31, 90 and 103 are located on a pedestrian street built over cobblestone stairs, one of the characteristics of Lisbon’s historic districts. There are several other apartments at Baixa.

The main feature of Pena is that it is a plateau, from which two main slopes descend, facing Martin Moniz and Avenida da Liberdade.

It begins at the north-east of Rossio and extends to Campo dos Mártires da Pátria, commonly known by Campo de Santana. The streets on the two slopes are twisting and irregular, leading to many beautiful alleys and side streets.

Being one of the oldest districts in Lisbon, one is overwhelmed by the diversity of its buildings, constructed in accordance with the successive types of architecture through centuries. Wrought iron balconies from the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries can be seen everywhere. In constant dialogue with the wrought iron are the glazed tiles of the façades - a style reportedly brought from Brazil after the 16th century.

Pena is a quiet neighborhood where one can find the Italian and German embassies, the birthplace of Amália Rodrigues and the place where Luis de Camões is supposed to have lived his last days (Calçada de Santana, nº 139).

It is very close to the famous Bairro Alto, a nightlife area, which can be reached by walking down Rossio or by taking the Elevator do Lavra, the oldest funicular in Lisbon. This 120 year old elevator goes every 15 minutes down to Rua das Portas de Santo Antão, the location of many excellent fish restaurants as recommended by many city guides (see KLM Lisbon city guide).

Come and see for yourself!

We have spent the time in Lisbon very nicely. The weather was beautiful.
The city is like a large palace. You pass from one room to another one, and after to next one, then you can have a wide view from a miradouro.
People here are very nice, like the person who received us and the person who cleaned the apartment and therefore we made our selves like home.

If you want to eat or drink something stay in this zone because it offers a lot of restaurants much more than other neighborhoods.
