"The Lisboans is the perfect vacation rental/hotel hybrid: You feel like a local, settling into a one- or two-bedroom apartment that comes with a fully stocked kitchenette (mini-fridge, microwave, stovetop, and the all-important dishwasher) and spacious, stylish digs. But there’s also a Lisboan team downstairs that will give you tips on where to go for dinner; bring you fresh bread, pastries, and juice each morning; and clean your apartment daily. The location is also fantastic—in a quiet residential district between Alfama and Chiado, with plenty to explore in the neighborhood, including the nearby Praça do Comércio. Bonus: The Lisboans is connected to hot new restaurant Prado and Prado’s market, so you can pick up a few grocery essentials next door." - Laura Dannen Redman
