It is distinguished by a renovated centenary building that features historical elements with modern touches and vintage style. All rooms include windows and air conditioning. Some rooms have views of the Douro River. Meals can be prepared in the kitchenette and served in the dining area available Located just a few steps from the Douro River and the historic city of Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. What's more, the privileged location just a few steps from the historic centre makes it easy to reach the city's main attractions, making your stay even more convenient and enjoyable. The breathtaking views and cosy atmosphere are truly incomparable. A few minutes walk from the Ribeira, Stock Exchange Palace, Ferreira Borge Market, Allied Avenue, São Bento Station, the famous centennial Lello Bookstore, Clergy Tower, Paris Galleries, Rua das Flores ... The house has free parking in front of the property. There is public transport near the house. I have a private transfer from the airport to the house and vice versa.
