Avenue Vert is a bubble of bright, modern design right in Porto’s historic centre. We loved the open layout and natural light. In terms of location, you can’t get more central than this. Urban adventurers will be able to explore the city on foot from here, and there’s strong public transport links. But be aware, this prized central spot also means noise – the Avenida dos Aliados is a bustling commercial centre that hosts festivals and city-wide gatherings during the holidays.
