About this property

Portuguese Soul Bica | Iconic Tram View & Patio | Sleeps 4

A beautifully renovated two-bedroom apartment with a cosy private patio, set in a charming historic building.

Located on Rua da Bica de Duarte Belo, one of Lisbon’s most iconic and photographed streets, the apartment overlooks the famous yellow funicular, which has travelled up and down the hill since 1892. From the bedroom windows, you can watch it pass through this lively historic neighbourhood.

Just a short walk from elegant Chiado, bohemian Bairro Alto, Cais do Sodré and the riverfront, Bica feels like a living postcard of Lisbon. The surrounding streets are filled with restaurants, speciality coffee shops, popular brunch spots, traditional cafés and wine bars.

The apartment accommodates up to four guests in cafés and wine two bedrooms, each with a double bed. It also features a full bathroom with a shower, a separate WC, a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable living and dining area, and a private patio, ideal for breakfast, evening drinks or a peaceful moment outdoors.

Rich in Baroque-inspired Portuguese character, the interiors feature ornate ceilings, golden details, vintage furniture and crystal chandeliers, creating a theatrical yet welcoming atmosphere.

Bed linen and towels are provided, along with shampoo, shower gel, hand soap and body lotion. Amenities include Wi-Fi, cable TV, air conditioning, a dishwasher, washing machine, Nespresso coffee machine, toaster and hairdryer.

Self check-in is available, with access codes sent before arrival. Early check-in and late check-out may be available, subject to availability, at no extra cost.

Located on a pedestrian-only street, the apartment is ideally placed for exploring central Lisbon on foot. Taxis and ride-hailing vehicles cannot stop at the door, but the nearest drop-off point is only a short walk away.

A car is generally not necessary.

As the funicular and visitors pass through the street during the day, the neighbourhood has a lively urban atmosphere. Please note that the funicular operates independently and may occasionally be temporarily suspended for maintenance or operational reasons.

The private patio is reserved exclusively for guests.

Opulence and location

A renovated home done with love and attention to detail. Everything you need to dine in or just head out the door and hit local eats! Location was amazing and we were able to walk to many areas, or short walks to Metro or Trains. Ana was very attentive and quick to reply, and provided important tips to improve our stay!!!

Maintenance work

Noisy area with loud drunk people every night. Also the bathroom in the flat above was being replaced so endured 11 days of drilling, dust, rocks falling from the window above to the terrace area, from 10-7pm every day. I moved to alternative accommodation but wasn't fully compensated for the inconvenience. Very disappointed.
