    The best and most personal hotel experience ever

    All was good :-)

    A unique hotel close to the centre of Porto. A very personal welcome by the staff and owner of the hotel was the start of an exceptional 4 day stay in Porto. The hotel is discretely situated in a small street and when we opened the door to the hotel we found ourselves in a beautiful original house with original paintings on the wall paper, hand painted decorations and furnitures to match the originality of the entire house. All is carefully renovated with the hotel comfort in mind. We had a suite to the garden and experienced some of the most quiet hotel nights ever. The owner and staff finds an exceptional pride in their work and in maintaining the house and the hotel standard and were providing outstanding assistance and advices to visits in Porto. By far the best, most personal and most outstanding and unique hotel experience ever.

    Absolutely beautiful property in a very good location. We booked the duplex suite, which was spectacular. The room was spotlessly clean and quiet and the bed was very comfy. The breakfasts were delicious and very thoughtfully set out. Our hosts Maria and Ricardo were wonderful and made sure we had a great stay. We would be very happy to stay here again and would happily recommend

    We could not fault it! There were a lot of stairs- so not suitable to older/ disabled persons.

    The hospitality was incredible! We were so beautifully looked after by Maria and Riccardo. The place is exceptional. Great location, amazing breakfast, a port and almond cookie on check in, they even were happy for us to have a late check out. We will be back!

    The only issue was the jammy lock on the front door - it never caused us a problem as the hosts were on hand to help us out both times but I imagine if you wanted a late night out it might make you a bit nervous about re-entering the hotel.

    The hotel has a wonderful history within a unique building. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was superb - local treats and quails eggs too! Our room was just fantastic, all the attention to detail marble sink, and a dressing room. A lovely stay in a high quality and quirky hotel.

    Nothing, it was a unique and memorable experience. The bed was huge, the bathroom was massive. It was almost like staying with family.

    What a beautiful building, central location in a street convenient for all the sights of this wonderful city. A warm welcome and lovely atmosphere, you need to realise that you are staying in a unique and beautiful building. The hospitality displayed by the hosts was wonderful. We shall make this a must visit place again when we visit Porto.

    - stunning building, a really special place to stay and the bed was so comfortable we wish we could have taken it with us - breakfast was fantastic - fresh, local produce, one of us is gluten intolerant and Maria and the team went out of their way to find various gluten free options every day - Maria, Ricardo and Vlada were wonderful and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating - great location with pretty much everything in walking distance We’ll definitely be back!
