Alfama House

- Our trusted driver will wait for you in the airport arrival hall and drive you to the flat. This service costs 30 euro and is not part of the rental price. A normal taxi ride is around 15 euro. Have a relaxed arrival and let us drive you to the flat.The apartment is located on the second floor (or third for North-Americans) of a building dating from the 1930s, and renovated in 2016. It is accessed through a narrow pedestrian lane. It is located on Rua da Regueira, in the middle of Alfama. Along with Rua Sao Miguel, the street is one of the main arteries crossing Alfama from the Tagus up to the St-George Castle. Most of Alfama survived the major earthquake of 1755 thus its narrow streets and old quarter escaping the subsequent modern rebuilding. It is a popular location where local residents still have access to common shower areas and shared laundry facilities found nearby. It is the "village" within the city with a very strong old Europe feeling.
