Arco do
Bandeira
16 apartments in the heart of Lisbon's most iconic square. Historic Pombaline architecture, eclectic interiors and the energy of Rossio on your doorstep.
"An 18th-century building facing Rossio - Lisbon's living room. Sixteen apartments, each one a character of its own."
Arco do Bandeira occupies a grand Pombaline building on the edge of Rossio, the square that has been the beating heart of Lisbon for centuries. From the moment you arrive, you are inside the city - not visiting it.
The 16 apartments range from intimate studios to generous two-bedroom spaces, each decorated with an eclectic mix of antique and contemporary pieces. Original timber floors, high ceilings with plaster cornicing, original azulejos and marble bathrooms sit alongside bold colour choices and curated wallpapers that give each apartment a completely distinct personality - no two are alike.
Some apartments offer direct views over Rossio square - with the Column of Pedro IV and the Teatro Nacional stretching out below the windows. View apartments are subject to availability.

Rossio - the soul of Lisbon.
Rossio has been the centre of Lisbon's public life since the Middle Ages. Its wave-patterned cobblestones, ornate fountains and grand 19th-century facades make it one of the most photographed squares in Portugal - and you'll be living right on it.
From Rossio you can walk to Chiado in 10 minutes, reach the waterfront in 15, or simply sit at one of the esplanades and watch the city move around you.
