Name: Casa Da Amalia
Address: Rua Do Guadiana 39, Cascais, Portugal, Cascais, Portugal

Question 1

Where is Casa Da Amalia located?

Accepted Answer

Casa Da Amalia is in Estoril, Lisbon (Rua Do Guadiana 39, Cascais, Portugal), close to Jerónimos Monastery.

Question 2

How much does Casa Da Amalia cost per night?

Accepted Answer

Prices are set live by the hotel — check the booking page for a real rate for your dates.

Question 3

What is the cheapest month to visit Lisbon?

Accepted Answer

February is the cheapest, with four-star doubles in Baixa often at €90–130 and hostel beds around €22. January is close behind, apart from the first few days of the month. Both are mild by northern European standards — around 15°C by day — but you should expect rain and short daylight. The upside is that Castelo de São Jorge, Jerónimos and Pena Palace have no queues, and Sintra restaurants take walk-ins. Avoid mid-November: Web Summit at the Altice Arena makes it one of the most expensive weeks of the year.

Question 4

How many nights do you need in Lisbon?

Accepted Answer

Four nights minimum, five or six if Sintra matters to you. Two full days cover the centre and Belém, and Sintra needs an entire day on its own — the train from Rossio takes about 40 minutes each way and Pena Palace alone absorbs two to three hours with the walk up. A fifth night lets you add Cascais on the Cais do Sodré line, or Queluz and Mafra. Under three nights, you will see Baixa and one viewpoint and little else. Weekend breaks of two nights are common but leave no room for the palaces.

Question 5

How do I get from Lisbon airport to the city centre?

Accepted Answer

The metro red line runs from Aeroporto station and reaches Baixa in about 25–30 minutes with one change, at Alameda for the green line or Saldanha for the yellow. A single ride costs around €1.80 plus €0.50 for the reusable Navegante card, bought from the machines in arrivals. A taxi or Uber to Baixa covers the 7 km in 15–25 minutes for roughly €15–20, more at night or with luggage supplements. If you are heading to Cascais or Estoril, take the metro to Cais do Sodré and the train from there, about 40 minutes for €2.40. Note that the metro does not run between roughly 01:00 and 06:30.

Question 6

Do I need a car in Lisbon?

Accepted Answer

No, and in the centre a car is a genuine nuisance — hotel parking runs €18–25 a night and Alfama, Mouraria and Bairro Alto have streets no wider than a car door. Trains handle the classic day trips: Sintra from Rossio in about 40 minutes, Cascais and Estoril from Cais do Sodré in 33–40 minutes, Queluz-Belas on the Sintra line. Buses from Campo Grande and Sete Rios reach Mafra in about an hour and Óbidos in around 75 minutes. A car only pays off if you are touring the Serra da Arrábida, Setúbal and the Costa da Caparica, where services are sparse. If you do hire one, pick it up on the day you leave the city, not on arrival.

Question 7

Is Lisbon better for families or couples?

Accepted Answer

It works for both, but the areas differ. Couples do well in Chiado, Príncipe Real and Alfama, where the appeal is small guesthouses, viewpoints and fado rooms holding 30–40 people. Families are usually better in Parque das Nações — flat, modern, next to the Oceanário and about 20 minutes from Baixa on the red line — or in Belém, where the monuments and the riverside park are all on one level. Family rooms and cots are much easier to find in four-star hotels on Avenida da Liberdade and in Parque das Nações than in converted Alfama townhouses with no lift. Expect around €200–280 for a family room in high season.
