About this property

Casa das Arcadas - Free GARAGE - Praça de Giraldo - Historic Center

A modern, bright, and quiet apartment on the first floor of a historic building, located along the medieval arcades of Praça de Giraldo, with its famous Henriquina Fountain, from which the main streets radiate and provide access to the city center.
Sleeping above the arcades and waking up to a view from the balcony window—with its typical wrought-iron railings and imposing weather vane—of the Church of Santo Antão and Praça de Giraldo is a unique and unforgettable experience!

The apartment is located right in the heart of the historic center, and you can visit all the monuments on foot, without needing transportation.
There is a taxi stand at Giraldo Square, and buses run frequently. In the historic center, all parking is paid, but the apartment has a free parking space at the Santa Catarina Condominium, about 50 meters from the apartment.

This is a flat that feels like living in someone’s beloved home and not like a sterile hotel: it has character. Luisa was extremely welcoming and ensured we were well informed and well settled. The flat itself is just off the city’s main square so it is not particularly quiet. The mattress could be due to be replaced, but that is my only complaint. A truly lovely way to live like a local in Evora.

Luisa furnishes her place with extra details, and she provides a full introduction to Evora -- things to see and places to eat. She encourages guests to share their experiences with future guests, and these write-ups are interesting. The location can't be beat -- just off of the main plaza in old town.

Historic Evora

The apartment was spotless and very comfortable. We were right in the center of the historic area and could walk to everything. The little grocery across the street has fresh baked goods for our breakfasts and each and every meal was great. The unit included a parking spot which was ideal for rental car we had for touring nearby towns. We stayed 6 nights.

Luisa was a wonderful host. She met us in paraca de Giraldo and made it easy for us to park our car in her garage, which was few minutes walk away from the apartment. The apartment in a medieval building was beautifully renovated, very clean and comfortable. She kindly showed us around, treated us with a very tasty white wine, cheese and bread and gave us all the great tips to experience the beautiful city. We had a great time and love to stay again if we come back to Portugal.

Excellent Apartment!

We really enjoyed staying in this property, located within the old walls/palace of Evora. The apartment was BIG and very nicely decorated. The location can't be beat, just park your car in the provided garage and walk everywhere. The bedroom can be loud at night so be sure to shut the wooden window doors to help block the noise. Host was so helpful and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!
