Historic, striking and minimalist in Porto
A stylish and welcoming family run hotel in a lesser known, but fascinating and diverse, neighbourhood close to the historic centre of Porto. The style is minimal but without skimping of the essentials of comfort and welcome.
The Location

There are also parks, beaches, winding alleyways and piazzas, superb seafood restaurants and great shopping close by.
