Reviews

We’re dog owners without a car and very happily living in Alvalade. Very residential, local Portuguese area that’s got easy access via transit to most parts of the city. I emphasize that it’s a local neighborhood in that we never hear English spoken here and it very much feels off the tourist path, (which we like). Just giving that disclaimer in case you preferred to be around English speakers and other expats. - Justin, October 20222

The noisiest area in Lisbon. All the low flying planes take off and depart over this neighborhood. You’ll go crazy. - Gardne, December 2020

Alvalade is very well connected and good secondary schools around. - Ana, November 2021

Alvalade is also a very cute little place. It's off the beaten path for most foreigners and tourists, but I like it a lot because it's really local and you have everything in the neighbourhood - Check out the street called Av da Igreja in Alvalade. - Cíntia, May 2021
