I was a bit surprised by the prices of hotels in Porto and considered a guesthouse as an alternative—especially since I’d heard these tended to be quite high-end here.

If you’re craving something more substantial, there’s a small café just next door. While it’s not right in the heart of the old town, it’s only one street behind the Museu Nacional Soares dos Reis and a pleasant 10-minute walk from the iconic Torre dos Clerigos. Sao Bento Train Station is just around the corner. Special thanks to Nelson, the owner—he was incredibly helpful from booking through check-out, always friendly, responsive, and genuinely attentive.

Staying at PortoSense Ribeira was an absolute highlight of our trip to Porto. The location is unbeatable—literally steps away from the heart of the city’s charm, and we never felt the need to go far. The apartment itself has a wonderful character with a cozy, welcoming feel, and the full-length balcony overlooking Praça Ribeira is simply magical. Watching life unfold below from our private space was unforgettable. Hosts Christina and Filipe were incredibly responsive and helpful—from arranging airport transfers to giving us tips on navigating the narrow streets and avoiding traffic restrictions in the square. They even helped us store our luggage when we arrived earlier than expected. The queen-sized bed was super comfortable, and the elevator that goes straight to the door made getting in and out a breeze. (Just keep in mind: no elevators on the steep streets above!) One thing to note: there's no air conditioning, so we had to keep windows open during hot nights—while this brought in fresh air, it also meant some noise from the lively square, especially on weekends. Tall guests might find the shower area a bit tight. But honestly, these are minor trade-offs for such a perfect location and well-designed space. We loved walking along the Ribeira every day, strolling past the Palácio da Bolsa and up Rua das Flores. And don’t miss Miss Pavlova just across Rua de São João—only a 3-minute walk away. Their breakfast offerings are fantastic, and their pavlovas? Absolutely divine. This apartment isn’t just a place to stay—it’s part of the experience.

Staff went above and beyond with their friendly, attentive service—always smiling and ready to help. Breakfast was fantastic: a generous spread of fresh pastries, fruits, local cheeses, and hot dishes. Even better, they welcomed us with a large bottle of mineral water upon arrival—a small but thoughtful touch. Everything about this stay felt personal and exceptional. For a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and hospitality, this hotel is unbeatable. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Staying at Mayor's Apartments in Porto was an absolute delight. The building is beautifully restored, with three floors and a convenient elevator—just four steps to reach the top floor. Located in Zone 1, right in the heart of the historic city center, it’s just a short walk from the iconic Clerigos Tower.

It featured a spacious living area with a kitchenette and sofa bed, a cozy double bedroom, and a stunning marble bathroom with a generously sized shower (though the tile flooring could be slightly slippery at times). Furniture was high-quality, and linens and towels were provided—excellent attention to detail. One small suggestion: having a bottle of water in the fridge upon arrival would make guests feel even more welcomed. If arriving by car, avoid the underground garage at Jardim de Cordoaria—it’s expensive at around €80 per day. Instead, head to CC Bombarda/Parquet do Carregal, only about a 10-minute walk away, where parking costs just €15 daily and is covered and open 24/7. Just note that payment must be in cash. Overall, if you're looking for a central, stylish, and well-located place to stay in Porto, this apartment complex is a top choice. Highly recommended!

The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and genuinely helpful. I was a bit confused at first with the check-in process—my booking instructions said to message them ahead of time, but I didn’t receive a reply after sending a message. However, once we arrived and gave them a call, they responded immediately and checked us in without any hassle. The apartment itself was spacious, comfortable, and exactly as pictured online. It’s a great choice for travelers who appreciate authenticity and local charm. My only note: if you’re bringing heavy luggage, be prepared for a bit of a climb—this city is hilly, so packing light will save your legs for exploring the beautiful streets and sights. Overall, an excellent stay and highly recommended.
