Overview
If you’re looking for a family friendly city break (with the option of some adults only time) look no further than Martinhal Chiado’s collection of stylish serviced apartments. Smack bang in the heart of Lisbon old town, in the trendy Chiado district, you’re treated to the best of both worlds with five star hotel services combined with spacious studios, fully equipped kitchens and the all important separate sleeping spaces. In a stroke of genius they also offer a Kids Club for 6 months +, babysitting services, and the Pyjama Club – an evening childcare service (which runs until 10pm) allowing parents to hit the town knowing their tiny travellers are safe and sound. Hand luggage only might not be a thing of the pre-parent past, as the handy Baby Concierge provides everything from potties to pushchairs. On site restaurant Bar 1855 serves a buffet breakfast, lunch, light snacks and creative cocktails, whilst the famous Mercado da Ribeira is a short 5 minute stroll away.

Bantika
Parent to Tiny Traveller aged 4
Right in the heart of Lisbon, close to the Time Out food market, it was super simple to walk everywhere from Martinhal Chiado. Rooms were huge and light and the kitchen facilities were great. The Kids Club was lovely and I really appreciated the long-time serving staff, who made me and my son feel totally as ease
Worth waking the baby for
01
Belem
The original birthplace of pastel de natas, Belem is blessed with a waterfront location, astonishingly intricate Jeronimos Monastery and the Torre de Belem – a coastal defense tower dotted with gargoyles inside and incredible views from the top
02
Oceanário de Lisboa
Promoting ocean conversation and education, Lisbon’s indoor aquarium (one of the largest in Europe) is home to sharks, sea otters and coral reefs
03
Sintra
Just 40 minutes from the city by train, Sintra is a magical land of Disney worthy castles, palaces fit for princesses and fairytale forests
