In Porto Gallery Guesthouse

Очень милый уютный отель. Прекрасное местоположение, всё в шаговой доступности (и рестораны, и достопримечательности, и река). Очень внимательный и радушный персонал. Комфортабельный номер. Вкусный завтрак.

We had a wonderful stay at In Porto. It is a small guest house and the guest rooms are all individually and beautifully decorated with lovely pieces of art. There are pieces of artwork throughout the house and it is truly unique and a welcome change from the usual standard hotel lobbies. They sraff are only at reception until 3:00 so if you arrive after this you will have to key in the code and find you own way to your room. We booked a room that was called Intuition on the second floor as the stairs are fairly steep. The room is well equipped with all the necessities but counter space is very sparse in the washroom. The beds are very comfortable and although the inn is on a main street it is very quiet in the evening. Housekeeping was very good and the linens, pillows and towels are of good quality. There is a laundromat just up the street so we were able to get our laundry done. There are also many restaurants nearby. The service staff are very helpful. Katya was the server when we arrived and she was very helpful. When we left there was a gentleman on duty and when we asked him to call a taxi for us he asked where we were going and when we told him we were going to the dock to board a river cruise he offered to ask a friend of his to take us to the airport at a fraction of the cost. He and his friend loaded our baggage in the car and we were taken to the dock. This is a great guest house in a nice location. Prices are fair. The rooms are lovely and have so much character. Breakfast is good and service is friendly and accommodating. It’s a great place to stay. We found a very good Churrasquiera called Pedro’s Frangoes just down the street. It’s very good food and reasonable.

We stayed at the apartments for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. They are only a few years old and positioned in an ideal location only a few minutes walk away from restaurants and shops. It took us about 15 minutes to walk to the bridge over the River Duoro where all the action is. The room was plenty big enough with a large well appointed bathroom. Special mention should be made of the manager who went out of her way to make us feel very welcome and provided an excellent breakfast plus a daily fresh baked cake that we could help ourselves to at any time. Be aware the manager isn't there after 3p.m. so if you arrive after that time you will need to ring the owner to get a security code to open the front door. Also there is no lift and the stairs are quite steep so carrying heavy suitcases is a bit of a challenge. Very reasonably priced, we would highly recommend these apartments.
