Opposite the Museu de São Roque – a museum of Portuguese sacred art in a 17th-century cloister – and just five minutes’ walk from Camões Square, Chiado Arty flats is in good company. Inside, the architect-designed interiors of these self-catered apartments opt for an arty theme: abstract canvas paintings are at the head of the bed, while upcycled oil barrels are repurposed as side-tables and sinks throughout the apartments. Expect a blend of both the old and new – eclectic décor decisions, Nespresso machines and flat-screen TVs contrast rustic window shutters and idyllic views of traditional Portugese architecture.

Dare Lisbon, in the centre of Lisbon’s Old Town, retains all of its building’s original 18th-century features, including tiles, fresco walls in some of the apartments, St. André crosses, arches, stone masonry and noggin walls. But it is also progressively modern in its approach: this family-run business is eco-friendly and mindful about its carbon footprint. During the refurbishment process of the apartments, which have been designed in collaboration with local artists and outfitted with plastic-free toiletries and kitchen and dining areas, Lisbon suppliers were used while also facilitating the use of the the most energy efficient equipment. Anticipate only organic and biodegradable packaging in your apartment, and daily fresh ingredients to prepare your breakfast.

    Located on the street of its own name, Rua Áurea, and housed in a building dating back to the beginning of the 18th-century, Residentas Aurea exudes as much charm as its heritage might suggest. Yet its traditional design doesn’t feel outdated: chandeliers, rattan chairs and wooden window shutters take pride of place within the apartments, which offer views of traditional mustard, turquoise and red clay Portuguese buildings. Heading to the city with your lover? Let the hotel know in advance; for an extra fee they can organise a bottle of sparkling wine, flowers and fruits upon arrival.

    Chiado in Lisbon’s historic centre, the traditional hub of artists, playwrights and intellectuals, is home to this apartment block, which is also nearby the city’s only opera house, National Theatre of São Carlos, and The National Museum of Contemporary Art. Staying here is a must if culture takes precedence – it only takes a stroll around the Chiado streets to feel this area’s artistic heritage. Meanwhile, the contemporary design of the apartments, featuring kitchenettes and dining areas, sits in stark contrast with the traditional exterior of the building – offering the best of both worlds.

    The Visionaire Apartments, an ex-merchants’ house of the 16th-century, takes inspiration from its surroundings on the Praça da Figueira – a statue of King D. João I, to be precise. This king started the Portuguese navigations in the 15th-century and developed the city into a multicultural hub of trading and commerce – and the interiors, doused in hardwoods, tapestries, printed textiles, tiles and pottery of the native styles, pay due respects to this. The one- and two-bedroom apartments come complete with designer furniture and fully kitted-out kitchens, while the establishment is filled with as much history as some of the city’s museums.
