We will be in Porto for 2 nights in early June. Looking for hotel suggestions...midrange or boutique hotels. Not interested in apartment rental. would like to be central for attractions/cafe/restaurants within walking distance.
Thank you
Two hotels: Hotel Infante de Sagres, Barrio Alto. You have posted your question in the area for travelers to post reviews. You need to post your question inDestination Questions and Answers.
Very recently travel expert forSpain and Portugal, Maribel, listed exactly what you are looking for in the Europe Forum, Portugal on Fodors.com. I recommend you look there as this advice is from a highly recognized expert.
We stayed at 1872 River House on the west end of the river front (Ribeira). A little pricey, but well worth it for the service and location. We were there for the Sao Joao festival. Crazy, but fun. Would definitely stay there again (listed in the RS Portugal guide book).
Our stay at Guest House Douro was terrific! Great location; exceptional service and a wonderful breakfast. Highly recommend.
I stayed at a new hotel called the Se Cathedral Hotel. It’s a Canopy by Hilton hotel - so it’s like a boutique hotel but you get Hilton points, etc. It’s right across the street from the Se Cathedral and just a couple of minutes from Sao Bento station. Not really a neighborhood atmosphere but so convenient for getting different places by train or Metro, walking to Gaia, etc. The staff spoke great English and were super nice and helpful!
