A city escape in the heart of Mouraria, one of Lisbon’s most historic and culturally vibrant neighborhoods. With its cobblestone streets and colorful facades, Mouraria invites you to discover the birthplace of Fado music while embracing its lively urban edge. This cozy apartment offers a snug living space, two inviting bedrooms, and easy access to the bustling streets below. Whether you’re here for the culture, cuisine, or adventure, this spot is the perfect base for your Lisbon journey.
This 53-square-meter apartment is nestled in the heart of Mouraria, one of Lisbon's oldest and most culturally vibrant neighborhoods. Picture winding cobblestone streets, colorful facades, and the soulful birthplace of Fado music. But let’s keep it real—Mouraria comes with its urban charm and a bit of edge, where you might bump into some of the city’s more colorful street characters.
→ Building
Perched on the 1st floor of a building without an elevator, this spot is ideal to dive into Lisbon’s lively energy. With bustling streets below and plenty of restaurants nearby, expect some noise, especially on weekends.
Like many older buildings in this historic city, the apartment features wooden floors that add charm but can be a bit noisy when walked on.
Parking is paid, on the street, subject to availability.
→ Bedrooms
Two bedrooms keep it cozy: one with a double bed and ensuite bathroom, and another with two single beds. Bonus points? Both have small balconies and electric heaters for those chillier nights.
→ Bathrooms
Two bathrooms, both with showers, make sharing a breeze. As they are interior spaces, we recommend keeping the doors open whenever possible and airing out the apartment regularly during your stay to avoid moisture buildup (and resulting odors).
→ Living/Dining Room
The living room is snug (aka small, but in a cute way!). There’s a flat-screen TV, a comfy sofa, and a dining table for 4, perfect for those late-night card games or planning your Lisbon adventures.
→ Terrace
The 5-square-meter terrace is small but inviting—ideal for a quick coffee or quiet moment outdoors - but no sweeping views here. Just you, the sky above, and a slice of Lisbon calm. Please note that the terraces connect with those of neighboring apartments, creating an open and shared environment.
→ Kitchen
Fully equipped for your cooking needs, the kitchen includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, kettle, and Dolce Gusto coffee machine (coffee not included).
Good to Know
Let’s be honest — this is a classic Lisbon apartment, full of charm... and a few quirks you’ll want to know before arriving:
- The apartment is in an old building with no elevator. The wooden floors add character, but they creak and can get noisy when walked on.
- You’re right in the heart of Mouraria, surrounded by restaurants, local life, and movement. It can be noisy at night, especially on weekends. It’s part of the authentic Lisbon experience. If you’re a light sleeper, we recommend bringing earplugs.
- Parking is on the street, paid, and quite limited. If you’re driving, be ready to circle around a bit.
- There’s no air conditioning. Electric heaters are available for colder days and fans for summer — but if you’re heat-sensitive, keep that in mind.
- The apartment is located at the top of a hill, with typical cobbled streets. Lisbon isn’t flat, so bring comfortable shoes and get ready for some uphill walking.
- There is construction work taking place nearby, which may cause some daytime noise on weekdays. Unfortunately, it’s out of our control — but we like to keep things transparent.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on HousingAnywhere must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without HousingAnywhere is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on HousingAnywhere, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on HousingAnywhere.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on HousingAnywhere from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on HousingAnywhere at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On HousingAnywhere, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact HousingAnywhere customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
