チャーミング ハウス マルケス, ポルト

Our stay at Charming House Marquês was absolutely wonderful! My boyfriend and I arrived around 10 AM before our room was ready, and were kindly welcomed to check in and leave our bags for a few hours while we went out to explore the city. We were given a great summary of the neighborhoods and our hostess gave us great tips and marked up a map for us. The room was so lovely and comfortable! Had it been a little warmer, we would have definitely spent more time on the terrace with morning coffee. The breakfast was great! It included fruits, croissants, sweet treats, cold cuts, cheese, fresh jams, parfaits, cereal, coffee, and I'm sure I'm missing something. What a great start to the day. We truly felt at home here and each member of the staff that we met was so kind and helpful. The location is in a quieter area, but most sights/neighborhoods are no more than a 10-20 minute walk. There's a metro station a half block away if you're going a bit further. All in all, it was sad for us to leave this gem of a guesthouse and city. Would totally recommend staying here!

If you like to walk and stay in an off the beaten path place, this is the place for you! Really close to Santa Catarina (street that takes you directly to old historic part of Porto) where there portugese bakeries abound. It also takes you by some of the cheaper places to buy things like shoes and clothing. It is also a fairly short walk to the Medical Association and university. The metro is also really close by. Carla and her crew were great-they provided an orientation in English, tea and cakes if you are there in the afternoon, and the breakfast was excellent-fresh fruit, crepes, baked goods, cereal, home made yogurt parfaits. The rooms are clean, comfortable and quiet. This is a great place for couples with older children who can walk and are game to try new things. We would definitely stay again. Thanks Carla and crew!

Very nice and comfortable inn good breakfast. You can walk everywhere. Would highly recommend it.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Only challenge was finding the parking garage, but once found, it was very convenient.
