Casa Amora STUDIOS0

Paulo was very easy to communicate with, and very very nice and hospitable. He met us himself and gave us recommendations about the neighborhood & our stay. We remained in touch throughout the whole stay, regarding breakfast/cleaning, and anything we really needed. Breakfasts were very nice, it was great that we could pick to receive them at different times every day, which we did according to our plans. Fruits, croissants & pastries were amazing, cheese and meat selection as well. Loved the little park next to the apartment, as well as the Argentinian restaurant around the corner. The location was great as well, away from touristy areas but also within walking distance to the very center. Overall, we enjoyed our stay in Lisbon :)

The shower did leak a little bit, so we had to request extra towels for the bathroom floor (which were provided without any questions upon our request). Overall, nothing else notable.

This was our second stay in Casa Amora and although changed compared to when we visited 10+ years ago, it has kept the same hospitality and great people who run it. It is clean, equipped with everything one might need with the breakfast included (a great one, you choose from the variety of savoury and sweer choices) and close to many attractions (10-20 minutes walking distance) and if you do not feel like walking, there is the Rato station taking you almost anywhere in the city (and beyond). Quiet in the night and just perfectly lively during the day, it is the excellent starting point in Lisbon. Paolo is a great and very hospitable host, who met all our needs and inquiries promptly. He provides great recommendations of restaurants and ongoing exhibitions, if you're into arts&culture. Beside Paolo, the staff was also very friendly and hospitable. We recommend this stay to everyone and look forward to returning one day!

The manager and staff were brilliant. Breakfast was excellent. The location was also outstanding; close to the metro, a lovely small park with a great cafe very nearby, an excellent bar just round the corner. Overall the apartment was very comfortable with good facilities.

BA lost my wife's suitcase for over 2 days. The first 2 nights were quite noisy, especially the bin collection lorries. We chose the wrong time to visit Lisbon, as everywhere was extremely busy and all the public buildings in Sintra were closed due to a strike.

We really enjoyed our stay at casa amora. Paulo was one of the best hosts we ever had. He was very helpful: he waited for us even when we were checking in late, he was very responsive through messages and had some great recommendations on what we should see in Lisbon. The breakfast was also very delicious and fresh. The studio is close to the city center by foot and by bus.

The studio was a bit too dark for our liking. We also had some problems with the rain: some rain water entered the apartment due to the fact that the studio is at ground floor level. But Paulo was very helpful and cleaned up in a matter of minutes.

We loved everything about Casa Amora. Paulo met us on arrival and told us about the area - about the beautiful gardens, the silk industry, Maria Helena Vieira da Silva - it all brought the house and area alive; such a wonderful sense of history here. Communication throughout was excellent, we were given plenty of suggestions of where to visit in this fabulous city, where to eat etc, nothing was too much trouble. Our apartment (Vieira) was beautiful - big comfy bed, well-equipped kitchen, shutters to close at night (loved those!). Breakfast was incredible - anything you wanted from the very generous list - meats, cheese, bread, croissants, granola, pastel de nata etc. delivered each morning - what a great start to the day! Great location - you can walk into the city centre easily or pick up the metro at Rato (5 minutes away); there's a supermarket and lovely restaurant called Aguas Livres just around the corner plus the fabulous, intimate Procopio Bar is literally your neighbour. We had the best time; highly recommended!

Leaving!

At check in we were given a great introduction to the area, where to go, restaurants, directions to places, history of the apartment, introduction to Lisbon. A great location, with a short walk to a very cool part of Lisbon and access to all the main sights. There was everything we needed in the apartment, good shower and nice toiletries. Clean and well equipped. We loved the park opposite the apartment, with ancient mulberry trees and the water tower where we experienced a Frida Kahlo immersive exhibition. We ate at the Panda ramen bar which was a short walk way, and at Tascardosa for a genuine Portugese dining experience. The breakfasts which were delivered to our room were excellent, and the communication with the owner, Paulo, was first class. We loved everything about this apartment!

We were very glad to stay in Casa Amora, specially in the studio/ duplex Maria. Good service in many ways from Paulo and his team. Breakfast is really good , specially when they bring it to the studio. Nearby here is a nice small park, some local bars, restaurants and also a supermarket. After a nice walk of about 15 minutes it is easy to connect with the public bus or tram to the center. Casa Amora studio/duplex Maria is a good place to explore Lisbon for a few nights.

Everything was very smooth and the owners and staff are really kind ! The whole place feels like home. Breakfast is excellent quality. They are all very attentive to your needs and extremely reactive! It really feels like home ! Very clean and very safe ! Located near one of the oldest bar in Lisbon ! Nothing is pretentious, on the contrary all is very authentic with simplicity at its best with a lot of taste !

Wonderful bed, super nice staff, excellent breakfast. Superb location if you're there to explore things outside of the heart of the tourist district.

It seems like the quality of the rooms can vary a lot -- the first studio they put me in was small and dark, without a kitchen, and wasn't that nice. When I asked to be moved, my new studio was much better, but it still felt pretty dated and old (not in a historic way). I wish I'd been able to stay in one of the studios shown in the listing photographs. Still, the bed was large and comfortable, the bedding was fresh, the studio had good light, and overall it was a very good experience. I would come back again.

It was lovely! Great space for lounging, never felt cramped. Studio was decorated very comfortably and it was stocked with everything we needed. Breakfast in the morning was lovely, and the hosts went out of their way to offer recommendations on what to do, where to eat, and how to get around.

It could use a full length mirror (maybe back of the closet?!) but that’s a minor detail.
