Vieira's Place

Vieira's Place: Porto

Style and practicality go hand-in-hand at this Lapa district apartment designed by the famed architect Siza Vieira. Each bedroom is as light-filled as the next, thanks to those floor-to-ceiling Juliet balcony windows, and there’s a twin bedroom tailor-made for little ones. It’s worth noting the Metro overground runs close to this home – handy for getting about the city, but the passing trains may take some getting used to. But for a home this central, that’s all par of the course.

Home truths:
*There is free street parking available outside this home.
*This home sleeps eight guests, with the last two guests sleeping in a twin room with single beds. We think this room is better suited to children sharing.
*You’ll check into this home with a keypad and code.
*A cot and high chair are provided for little ones.
*Your host asks you to respect quiet hours from 10pm to 8am.
*The home is close to Lapa’s overground Metro, so expect to hear some noise from passing trains.
*The communal areas of this building might appear a little worn and dated in parts.
