This beautifully restored apartment in a historic building is the ideal place for guests who appreciate fine design. Located in the smart Bolhão district, close to many of the city's most famous attractions, it's a special spot where you can relax in style. The ornate facade gives way to a bright and airy apartment, with huge windows that flood the space with natural light. You'll love the high ceilings and ultra-modern design details, created by young Portuguese designers and artists. The kitchen is perfect for whipping up your favourite dishes using fresh, local ingredients from Mercado do Bolhão, just five minutes away on foot. And, there's even a Juliet balcony where you can enjoy your morning coffee or sip a sundowner in the fresh air. The famous Chapel of Souls, with its blue and white tiles, is just a short walk away, while the impressive Igreja de Santo Ildefonso also reachable on foot. A fifteen-minute walk will bring you into the charming Ribeira neighbourhood, with its winding streets and historic architecture. And, it's not a trip to Porto without visiting a port house for a tasting, and stopping off at a local bakery for some freshly-made pastéis de nata.
