Casa Amora Studios

Once again my research paid off, we were both so very happy with the choice of staying out of the city centre, as it always does. Arriving directly from the international airport via the metro system we were given the most delightful and unexpected welcome by Paulo at 2100, after being given instructions and tips for our five night stay in the studio apartment Paulo took us outside for a small tour of the immediate neighbourhood, a wonderful start to our vacation. Our ground floor apartment had all the amenities that we needed for self-catering if we so chose. Each morning we looked forward to the knock on the door at our preferred time for the delivery of our breakfast supplies in a wooden crate, we did not go hungry. The bed was comfortable, the room could be darkened sufficiently and air-con worked well for a pleasant night sleep. Street noise was minimal but we chose to sleep with the windows closed and air-con on for the best solution. Across from the apartment building was a delightful shady park were the locals congregated at the park cafe while children played in the playground. We enjoyed it also. It was a real treat to also see a remaining section of the Aqueduct and Water Reservior. A short walk away from the apartment was a supermarket, further on were bars, restaurants, public transport options, gelato and more. The walk into the centre took about thirty minutes, a great way to discover a new destionation. We would stay here again without hesitation.

I'd highly recommend Casa Amora! The apartment is comfortable, clean, well decorated and with all the important amenities working well (ac, internet, water temp). Breakfast was included - it was delicious and fresh delivered in quaint picnic box each morning. The location is awesome as you're in a neighborhood that has a local feel. Our host, Lulis, was incredible and shared recommendations without being overbearing. Traveling with two other girlfriends, we got in very late at 2 am after multiple delays and Lulis was there to cheerily greet us and make us feel safe in our new accommodation! This place is a GEM!

Casa Amora is a fabulous haven in Lisbon. Paulo, Abishek & Bibek look after guests wonderfully - delivering a beautifully presented and varied box full of delicious breakfast delights each morning and providing lots of brilliant recommendations. The duplex suite was very stylishly decorated and comfortable, with everything you need - including lovely local soaps. Lots of lovely touches. Paulo’s fabulous map showing his favourite places to see, the best pastel de natas (absolute heaven), great restaurants and interesting local shops, really helped make our stay so special. His recommended restaurants were all fantastic and filled with locals. The location is great - adjoining a charming square in the Amoreiras neighbourhood, not touristy, a short walk to the metro/other good public transport and about 15-20 minutes walk to the Principe Real. We really look forward to returning to Casa Amora soon. A great find.
