Next to the Douro river, near the beach and the historic centers.
Fabulous apartment - spacious, lovely decor, coffee machine, super clean, close to restaurants, the river & historic centre. Could not have wanted for anything more!
The host, Veronica was very welcoming, readily available & responsive to any queries. She was more than happy for us to leave our luggage after checkout so very accommodating as well.
Thank you Veronica, we loved our stay at Virtudes City Lofts!
Amazing property, was the best decision to stay here! Very central location and easy to explore all of Porto!! Room was larger and loved the apartment style, def recommend this for any couple or friends traveling together,very easy to check in and out, need something central and good quality choose this, $350aud per night, def worth it!
Wonderful in every respect, best staff ever, wonderful restaurant at base of hotel, had most meals there actually, best view ever to across the river to Porto. Spacious,clean well appointed apartment. Close to port houses and river boat transportation, close to chair lift. 15-20 minute walk to old town. 5 minutes to bridge. Would book this again in a heart beat. Didn’t want to leave….
Fantastic apartment along the riverfront yet perfectly quiet. Little gift of coffee. New, clean and comfortable with great kitchen if you want to cook yourself (we didn’t!). Fab breakfast included. Staff really friendly and helpful. Close parking. Laundromat around the corner. Restaurants everywhere. Walk to transport. Would definitely stay again, highly recommend this place.
Great location, spacious, well appointed, good value and fantastic views from outside the front door. The only issue is the address is not recognised in the Uber app (because it is not a street/lane that vehicles can use). A drop off address for the Uber/taxi would be helpful in addition to the photos of the location supplied.
Our experience in this hotel was absolutely wonderful.
The staff were wonderful from the moment we arrived and couldn't have been more helpful (but not intrusively so).
The hotel is spacious and architecturally beautiful and even has a lovely smell.
Our apartment was only one of the standard ones - but was so luxurious! Two bathrooms is always a bonus and we loved the little kitchen and separate lounge. Good air-conditioning and (heaven!) a washer and dryer!
The location is absolutely central and in walking distance to everything.
The parking lot is secure and easy to get in and out of.
My only suggestion would be to call ahead (they all speak beautiful English) and ask where to park when checking in. Parking illegally in the centre of Porto can be a bit of a unnerving experience!
