Bright & Ready

Sleek, modern and centrally located, this Porto home is perfect for couples or solo travellers looking to take in the sights of this charming city. Take it easy in the smart living space – perhaps you’ll tap away on your laptop at the desk or enjoy a moment of stillness on the soft cushions and rug. Mornings begin under the rainfall shower, before hashing out an itinerary as your coffee warms up in the handy kitchenette.

When you're ready to head out and about, wander through the pretty cobbled streets, soaking up the authentic atmosphere, as you pass an array of fabulous restaurants, authentic cafes and chic wine bars from your doorstep. You're a short walk from many of the city's most celebrated attractions – from the Church of Saint Ildefonso and Clérigos Tower to the stunning Livraria Lello bookshop. As evening draws in, head to Bolsa Palace and the Cais da Ribeira down on the riverfront, for a romantic stroll along the Douro and a taste of local cuisine.
