Highs & Lows

  • High ceilings, wood floors, and huge windows keep the old-world charm of this bustling neighborhood

  • Hello, location! Baixa House is in my favorite part of Lisbon. We could walk outside, grab a coffee, go to a fantastic restaurant, or shop late at night.

  • Despite being in the center of one of the busiest parts of Lisbon, you will not be inundated with a cacophony of ambulances and fire trucks. You can get a good night's sleep

  • The service was a delight. We were provided daily cleaning and breakfast. Breakfast included a bunch of options that were friendly to all of our food allergies too!

  • Family-friendly vibes! They provided a tiny tub for the little one to wash, a crib, and a cute high chair

  • If you're used to a microwave or formal dining area, they don't have them. So come prepared

    Plastic-free and energy-efficient. The only waste on the premises was in the toilet

    The windows were essentially noise-canceling, so the only music you could hear was outside when you opened the windows
