Lisbon Apartment Conde da Ribeira
Managed by PortugueseLiving
We are sure this is what will happen in this apartment.
In a quiet area of the city, near the river, near one of its most emblematic areas, this is the perfect accommodation for a stay, on holiday or business, in Lisbon.
Trust us and come stay for a few days in the city of Lisbon, its light, its history, its people!
The white colours prevail, light fills the house, widening the spaces and lending a romantic touch to the surroundings. It is a simple house, with a simple décor, classic-contemporary, extremely tasteful and a touch of refinement. Above all, it is a comfortable house, where we feel good, the ideal setting for those embroidered pictures that say "Home Sweet Home".
All the rooms share the same philosophy: the room in light shades is the perfect setting for a restful night and pink coloured dreams; the dining room with a white piano calling for an old fashioned evening; the living room with white and fluffy sofas for a well deserved rest after a day of work or leisure; the kitchen, large, functional, full of light, ideal for preparing a hearty breakfast for a day of strolling on the hills of Lisbon.
From Alcântara to Belém, the view is the Tagus River, large and serene, right next door.
This is a very important axis of Lisbon, where you find several landmarks of the city's rich heritage and Lisbon's material and immaterial beauty.
Official residence of the President of the Republic (Belém Palace), here you will find Portugal´s most famous custard tartlets, the Belém pastries. They are delicious, are sold by the unit or in boxes of 6 and beg for a lot of cinnamon on top.
The Jerónimos Monastery, the Monument to the Discoveries, the Belém Tower, the Coach Museum, the Naval Museum, Planetarium and the Belém Cultural Centre are absolute references of the city of Lisbon, all of them situated in this area.
From here you can quickly reach the town centre (tram, bus, taxi) and you also have excellent transport for a trip to Cascais or Estoril, essential discoveries on a trip to Lisbon.

Summary

The President of the Republic knows how to do things. There are several reasons for his official residence to be situated in Belém: the river, the Jerónimos Monastery, the Belém Tower and the Belém pastéis (custard cakes).
From Alcântara to Bélem the view is the same, the Tagus river. Alcântara comes from the Arab al-qantara, whose meaning (bridge) makes sense with the imposing April 25 Bridge, linking Lisbon to the South Bank. In this area of the city, at the beginning of the last century this was a republican neighbourhood conspiring against the monarchy, fun is guaranteed. The Alcântara Docks (commonly called Docas) represent a centre of fun (restaurants, bars and discos), occupying old factories and warehouses. No one remembers what Lisbon looked like before you could have a cocktail on the riverside. Not to be missed: "Speakeasy" with live jazz (Cais das Oficinas, armazém 115 at Rocha do Conde de Óbidos, "Espalha Brasas". Grilled meats (Doca de Santo Amaro, Armazém 9) and the "Op Art Café", with the best House Music DJs at Doca de Santo Amaro.
The Belém Tower (considered World Heritage in 1983) was built in honour of the city's patron saint, St. Vincent, at the place where the Great Vessel lay anchored. The tower is on the Right Bank of the river and is a monument to be visited. In the beginning it was surrounded by water on all sides, but today lies on land. The greatest symbol of the Manueline style in Portugal, it has Islamic and Eastern influences.
Do not miss a visit to the Jerónimos Monastery, the Monument of Discoveries, the Tropical Botanical Garden, the Navy Museum, the Electricity Museum and the Coach Museum (one of the world's most impressive collection of coaches). If you have children, take them to the Calouste Gulbenkian Planetarium. It is fun (and education) for sure. But Belém is not only History. A proof of this is the Belém Cultural Center, at the Praça do Império (a bold architecture project by Vittorio Gregotti and Manuel Salgado), with the city's and country's most comprehensive cultural programs, among the best in Europe (like the Berardo Museum - museum of contemporary art).
Try the famous Belém custard cakes at the original bakery (Rua de Belém). There are several rooms, full of fantastic azulejo tiles, with many seats and always busy waiters.
