Destination

Praça dos Poveiros (Square) 

There are countless reasons why visitors are attracted to this city. However, we want to share our selection of experiences which we believe perfectly translate the authenticity of this destination, using our hotel as a starting point. If what motivates you is a gastronomic getaway, we suggest a short walk to Praça dos Poveiros and the surrounding streets, where you can taste the idiomatically named francesinha (“little French girl”- emblematic sandwich from Porto), roasted pork sandwiches or the popular hot dogs.

Theater & Live Shows  Down the street, you can visit the Teatro Nacional de São João (National Theatre) and the Cinema Batalha (cinema), two bastions of contemporary culture to satisfy your desire for culture. Slightly further away, the Coliseu do Porto presents itself as one of the main stages in the city, receiving national and international artists from the most varied creative fields.

Shopping & Leisure 

In Praça da Batalha, embark on a journey through time on the emblematic Tram No. 22 and let yourself be guided through history. When passing through Rua de Santa Catarina and its intersecting streets, visit the historical local shops, the Mercado do Bolhão (market) and the Capela das Almas (Chapel of Souls). Resuming the trip, catch a glimpse of the main points of interest in the city, including the Torre dos Clérigos (Tower), Praça dos Aliados (Square) and the Estação de São Bento (Train Station). Alternatively, you can go to the Catedral da Sé do Porto (Cathedral), passing through the upper deck of the Dom Luís Bridge and the Muralhas Fernandinas (city walls) and continue the journey via the Funicular or Escadaria dos Guindais (Stairs) which transport you to the Ribeira (riverside) area, overlooking the Caves de Vinho do Porto (Porto Wine Cellars).
