Top Centro / Baixa Hotel Reviews

Pousada Porto Rua das Flores

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The hotel is very central with many cafe, bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. It is somewhat higher than the river and a 'hill climb' when returning from the river, but also close to public transport. The rooms are very well appointed and maintained. Service at the bar was exceptional and the food very good."
