Estrela Suites by Lisbon Dreams offers its guests a special holiday adventure right in the heart of one of the oldest neighbourhoods of the city. Estrela Suites is made of 3 independent suites, which all tell their story.. And have its own charm.. The cobbled stoned uphill street, whistling trams, neighbourhood sounds & the peculiarities of an old building provide the guests with the setting for a city break with a twist. It is not perfect, but it is "very typical" of Lisbon! :)
Wine Cellar Suite is a basement apartment with a lot of charm. Inspired by Portuguese wines, this little apartment provides its guests with a unique holiday home & experience.. The old Portuguese tiles, a bedroom window to an old internal stone wall, bits of pinewood furniture mixed with good wine and sounds of Tram28 passing by.. It sounds like a line coming out of a book, doesn´t it.. ?
This basement apartment has one bedroom and a living room with sofa-bed (for 2 people). The living room has also a dining table and TV. There is a little hidden kitchenette with pinewood doors, equipped with fridge, stove & microwave, teakettle, coffee machine and toaster. The living room has two small windows to the famous Calçada da Estrela street, which help to catch some light, a glimpse of people, cars & Tram28 as well as the treetops from Prime Minister´s Garden.
