Porto and Douro

Classic Meets Modern

A calm balcony apartment on Praça Marquês de Pombal, close to Porto's landmarks

Porto, Portugal
2 Guests1 Bedrooms1 Bathrooms52 m²16:00 / 11:00

About this home

This one-bedroom apartment pairs clean, minimalist lines with a working balance of comfort: a double bed in the main room, a bright living area with a sofa bed and TV, and a kitchen equipped for anything from coffee and toast to a proper dinner. A private balcony gives the flat its own quiet corner, ideal with a glass of wine as the evening cools.

The address is Praça Marquês de Pombal, a calm square with fast access to the centre. Avenida dos Aliados, Torre dos Clérigos and the Ribeira are all within walking distance, and Marquês metro station is 350 metres away, about five minutes on foot, connecting directly to the airport and train stations.

Mornings suit a slow coffee at the kitchen table before heading out to the cafés and shops nearby. Evenings are for the balcony, watching the square settle as the city's landmarks stay a short stroll away.
