Casa das Janelas com Vista
Casa das Janelas com Vista is a beautiful B&B with superb views, located on a peaceful street in the hip Bairro Alto at the center of Lisbon.
A Casa das Janelas com Vista translates to ‘The House of Windows with a View’.
Some of the rooms do indeed offer gorgeous views over a grid of steep cobblestoned streets, red-roofed townhouses, and the Tagus River in the distance.
A Casa das Janelas com Vista is a stylish boutique B&B tucked away in the heart of Bairro Alto. It’s the perfect spot to experience Lisbon’s vibrant nightlife and some of the city’s best restaurants. However, Bairro Alto is also a pleasure to explore in the daytime, with beautiful cobblestone alleyways inhabited by the elderly and a trendy young crowd.
The house is artistically decorated, offering the perfect mix of contemporary and classic elements where modern and designer furniture meets retro decor.
Awesomeness
Great location in a charming quiet street just around the corner from the hustle and bustle of Bairro Alto, Chiado and Principe Real.
Stylish and cozy open living room and kitchen.
The piles of breakfast pancakes.
12 rooms only, six of which can be combined to make three family suites.
Bear in Mind
Standard rooms are small but so is the cost.
Not all rooms have a view over the city.
No TVs or a lift, although if required, staff will be able to assist you with your luggage.
Q&A with Carmen and Natalia about Casa das Janelas com Vista
Casa das Janelas com Vista is a B&B located in a peaceful street in Bairro Alto
During the day Bairro Alto is so peaceful that you would never picture it turning into the street party that it is by night.
In the daytime, you’ll see elderly people chatting to each other (probably gossiping), buying their groceries or simply enjoying the sunshine. Then there are the younger creative locals who live there too, and at night everyone else joins in, straight or queer, Portuguese or foreigner. With plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from, the night begins here.
Chiado and Principe Real are just around the corner and you can explore all the three neighbourhoods by foot (mind the cruel steep streets).
If the sun is shining head to Cascais (31km) and enjoy its gorgeous sandy beaches and excellent restaurants.
Enjoy a stroll around the neighbourhood. Take a break at one of the tranquil outdoor cafes in Jardim do Príncipe Real, or visit the nearby Botanical Garden of Lisbon.
A 19th-century palace is now home to Embaixada. This indie shopping mall hosts brands and artists focused on Portuguese design, craftsmanship, fashion, gastronomy and culture.
A Cevicheria by Chef Kiko is a neighbourhood favourite and we adore their pisco sour. Also just around the corner, we like to go for pizza at ZeroZero, with a surprise terrace at the back.
