Just had a wonderful few days in Nathalie’s apartment. Beautiful building which has been very sympathetically renovated by Nathalie & her partner. Very bright, airy & spacious rooms. High quality fixtures and fittings and super comfortable beds & sofa bed. 3 double bedrooms, one en suite & a large sofa bed in the sitting room. High ceilings with French doors in 2 of the bedrooms and the sitting/dining/kitchen means the apartment is flooded with light. There are shutters on each of the French doors which black out the street lights of an evening when one is sleeping. Fully fitted and completely well stocked kitchen with large fridge freezer, oven & hob, dishwasher and a washing machine in the small utility area. Nathalie has thought of everything one needs during one’s stay. Nathalie met us on arrival at the apartment and kindly gave so much of her time explaining everything to us, recommending restaurants etc & booking a taxi for our return trip to the airport. We all arrived via metro on our first day and it is approx 15/20 minutes walk from Marques de Pombal metro station. It’s in a nice residential area about a 10 minute walk downhill to Avenida de Liberdade and approx 30 minutes walk to the river. There are two quite fabulous restaurants in the vicinity should you not wish to venture back into the downtown area after being out sightseeing all day. Treestory is a Georgian restaurant and is just across the road a few steps down from the mini market. It was so fabulous we ate there twice. Worth booking via The Fork website as we managed to get 30% off the food portion of the bill. La Villa is about a 6/7 minute walk up the hill and just passed the hospital. It’s a lovely Italian place situated in the park and the food is excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend and hope to return at some point.
