The impeccably curated interiors of this aparthotel, set in the heart of historic Porto, is one for the design connoisseurs amongst you. Spread across five buildings with a tranquil shared inner garden at it's heart, each apartment fuses bespoke-made furniture and luxurious finishes alongside rustic detailing and ceramics that the Portuguese do so well. And don't get us started on the distinctive scalloped-edge exteriors – what an architectural triumph. Inside, there are all the creature comforts to get settled in right away. Rustle up early evening drinks and nibbles in the smart kitchen space and pad outside onto your private balcony – the views of Porto's ornate balconies and rooftops beyond are every bit like you imagined. Or beat the heat and crash out inside with a movie – there's a smart TV at the ready. When it's time to soak up Porto's rich culture, make a beeline for the iconic Mercado do Bolhão and the signature blue and white tiles of the 18th-century Chapel of Souls – both just a six-minute walk away. Mosey over to the stylish Santa Catarina Boulevard (five minutes on foot) with its trim boutiques, striped stone footpaths, and buzzy cafes for obligatory pastel de natas and people-watching.... Or hop on the metro at Trindade (just a four-minute walk away) to unearth other corners of this captivating city.
