02011 Estrela III

It's been nearly a month since our stay at your lovely Estrela 3 apartment, and I meant to write you earlier to say thank you for providing such a wonderful place to stay during our short visit to Lisbon. The apartment made us feel at home. The neighborhood was quiet yet interesting. We bought groceries and wine from the local stores and the people were very friendly. We will recommend the place to others who may be considering a trip to Lisbon which has become one of our favorite cities.

The apartment was very nice and large and airy. Both bedrooms were spacious with plenty of storage space. The patio was lovely and we enjoyed it very much. The apartment was very clean. And the kitchen well equipped. We loved the neighborhood, places to to eat and buy supplies. Very easy to walk to other areas of the city or catch a taxi. We highly recommend this apartment and Lissabon-Altstadt!

Good Afternoon Herr Witold, A little while ago you e-mailed me asking for my evaluation of the apartment we booked in Estrela, Lisbon, Portugal. Here are my comments:- The apartment is very spacious and benefits from the balcony where we ate most of our evening meals. The beds are comfortable although I prefer a full size pillow rather than the smaller continental ones. The kitchen is exemplary in terms of what is provided and is possibly the best we have ever seen in all the apartments we have visited over the years. The Estrela area is lovely and having the park near by is a real bonus to just sit in the shade on hot sunny days (and for the regular craft markets at weekend) I would encourage any visitor to explore the Lapa district as the buildings are wonderful, and have a trip spotting all the embassies in the area. It took us a little while to orientate ourself but eventually found that Rato was not that far away and Av Liberdade was walkable from there. I think it is important to know that you need to be reasonably fit if you stay in Estrela as it is what we call in the UK "up hill and down dale" (I am 66 and my wife 57 and we both enjoy walking) to make the most of a visit. The information pack in the apartment is very useful. Mrs Delminda was very helpful and kindly took us to the supermarket on our arrival, so our thanks to her. Overall, we had a very pleasurable break in Lisbon and my wife has asked me to express her appreciation about the apartment as she has had a very difficult time with illness for the last 6 months. She has come back much more relaxed and refreshed and hopes to return to her work at the university very shortly. I hope you find this feedback useful. With very best wishes

We had booked 10 days in this apartment and I can say, it was great. In our case, we were travelling with a child with coeliac disease, which means we must cook because restaurants are difficult. That means, too, that we travel with own pots, with own plates and all kitchen stuff, which is necessary to cook. Of course, we can only begin to cook, when the whole kitchen is absolutely clean because the contamination risk for people with this disease is very high. It was the first kitchen, where I didn't have to clean anything. The fridge was clean, the oven was washed, the exhaust hood was not fatty and ugly. There were enough dishes for four people, so you didn't have to clean all the time. Everything in this apartment was intact. It was quiet and cosy, the furniture was comfortable. All in all, it was a wonderful stay and we can all recommend this apartment. When we will come again to Lisbon, we will for sure book this apartment again.

You will enjoy the Estrela apartment. I hope at least as much (or more) than I did. Bright, peaceful centrally located with excellent public transportation to take you anywhere. The Jardim Estrela is a few minutes walk away. Numerous stores and restaurants are close by. And you can walk to the center in 15 minutes or so. The historic Tram 28 stop is just at the end of the street. Really like this apartment. You should too!!!

The apartment was excellent, very comfortable and well arranged, and very well equipped. The area is pleasant, with many British connections, a huge basilica and an attractive park. The British cemetery, near the park, is also worth a visit. The novelist Henry Fielding is its most famous inhabitant. The 28 tram provided excellent links to the center and beyond. We enjoyed Lisbon. The transport system was good, and we easily got around on trams and buses. We also went to Sintra for the day, which we also enjoyed. We found people very helpful and friendly. An apartment and a city that are well worth visiting.

Dear Witold, We have now returned to London. We very much enjoyed staying in your comfortable and well-appointed apartment. It was very comfortable and convenient. We will certainly recommend the apartment to other people. Many thanks for the arrangements.

We were a party of 6 people staying in Estrella III and we all loved it! The check-in was easy and the apartment was just like the website had described - open, spacious and welcoming. The location was good, very quiet and within walking distance of the deli and several restaurants. We enjoyed visiting Belem (pastries and white port, divine) - the art gallery is a hidden gem, Sintra and the coast. The public transport system was simple to use and everyone was very friendly.
