Lisbon linen shop
 
I'm trying to contact the well-known linen store - Principe Real - which I have read about in various articles on the city. Trouble is I am not getting anywhere - seems the phone number is invalid. Has it closed? I was hoping to order linen when there...

Thanks but I know the website - unfortunately email is coming back to me...phone number seems to be wrong/unavailable tho' it's still listed in the phone directory. After 70 years in the business have they gone out of business? It occurred to me that maybe the very elderly owner is no longer around.

I really don't know. But the website looks quite new to think it belongs to a dissapearing enterprise.
Try to keep this post up for Lobo_mau to see it, he's from Lisbon and maybe can help you.

Is anybody calling for me???
Hi Candy, nice to see you around.
I just called Principe Real and the call was answered by a very polite gentleman.
I dialed 213465945. From abroad, dial (your international prefix)+351+213465945.
International prefix is 00 in Portugal, but may be different in other countries.

Thank you very much! It is odd though as the email keeps bouncing back AND I keep getting an unavailable tone when I dial. Now I'm thinking that probably I was making a mistake with the no. Good to know the shop is still there and thank you for your invaluable help!
