Just the Tónico

Just the Tónico: Porto

That lengthy balcony with views over Porto's rooftops sealed the deal at this downtown studio apartment. Set on the top floor of a historical building, while this is a studio space, it's a surprisingly practical and roomy home. There's a well-equipped kitchen to rustle up brunch with customary pastel de natas and a sofa area for curling up with coffee. Better still, that balcony captures the evening sun for a few Porto Tónico aperitifs. While the must-see sights can be reached on foot from here, you're set back from the city's historic centre. Or hop on the Trindade Metro instead – it's just a five-minute walk away.
