A Little Piece of Porto

Found in one of the oldest residential buildings in Porto, this apartment might not look 200 years old thanks to modernisation, but it remains historic. Now updated to house families itching to explore this UNESCO World Heritage City, it's comfortable – though the two bedrooms with the sloped ceilings might be better for kids – and bright with a fantastic location. Walk to Porto Cathedral and other landmarks in minutes, buy fresh produce from the Bolhão market only a short stroll away, and hop on the trams to find points of interest further afield.

Home truths:
*This apartment is on the second floor, with no lift. With the stairs to climb here, it might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility. *The ceiling in two of the bedrooms is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests. *Parking in Porto can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *Your host provides basic toiletries and essentials to get you started, but you might want to bring your own to top this up. The nearest supermarket for stocking up is a short walk away.
