What to visit in Porto from your doorstep
Ribeira and the D. Luís I Bridge
Just a one-minute walk separates our locations from the city’s most famous backdrop. Stroll along the banks of the Douro River, soak up the vibrant atmosphere of the outdoor terraces and cross the majestic D. Luís I Bridge to enjoy one of the most beautiful views in the world. It is also on the other side of the river, in Vila Nova de Gaia, that you can visit the famous Port Wine Cellars.
Palácio da Bolsa and Church of São Francisco
Major city landmarks are located right next to our properties. The Palácio da Bolsa (Stock Exchange Palace) is a must-visit for its architecture and stunning Arab Room. Right beside it, the Church of São Francisco impresses every visitor with its gilded woodwork interior.
Rua das Flores and São Bento Railway Station
Heading up towards the centre, the vibrant Rua das Flores invites you for a leisurely stroll among traditional shops, charming cafés and street performers. At the top, São Bento Railway Station awaits you with its world-famous tile panels depicting the history of Portugal.
Flavours and Traditions on the Banks of the Douro
Exploring Porto is also done at the table. In the area surrounding our accommodations, you will find everything from traditional ‘petiscos’ taverns — where the Francesinha and codfish dishes reign supreme — to modern signature restaurants and outdoor terraces perfect for unwinding at the end of the day.
