This studio apartment is a perfectly located base for trips to Porto. It’s ideal for couples that want to be in the thick of the action, as it’s close to the stunning Santo Ildefonso church as well as Rua Santa Catarina, Porto’s main shopping street. From this central pad, you can easily see the city’s main attractions, and take your pick from a wide variety of fabulous eateries. The apartment is a lovely space to return to after busy days out. We love the exposed stone walls, and the narrow balcony where you can sip your morning coffee or a nightcap. Sometimes the best things really do come in small packages.

This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected – light sleepers may want to pack earplugs

You’ll have access to a shared laundry room here

About Portugal
Once boasting history's largest empire, Portugal now happily tends to its own small but beautiful patch, inviting visitors to uncover its treasure trove of natural wonders.
