Pros

Regular schedule of cultural events featuring artists and designers
Central courtyard and back garden for outdoor relaxation
Located in an area with high-end shops and traditional eateries
Cons

“In my opinion, this is a unique blend of contemporary design within a restored 19th-century building. The arts and residence concept fosters cultural engagement with local artists, and the personalized service is a highlight. Its location in Cedofeita, near Casa da Música, places guests in a less touristy yet well-connected part of Porto, making it a stylish base for exploring the city.”
