If you're looking for a cosy holiday apartment packed with handy amenities, a lovely outdoor space where you can sit and enjoy a morning cup of coffee, evening glass of wine, or simply a space to sit and soak up the Portuguese sunshine with a good book, then look no further than this thoughtfully finished apartment close to the many highlights of lively Porto. We think it makes an ideal base for all kinds of trips, be it with family, friends, solo, or for a welcome escape with your significant other. Sit back and relax in the inviting living area complete with a flat-screen TV with cable channels or cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen with a glass of crisp regional Vinho Verde in hand. In order to make Porto more attractive, the municipal tourist tax came into force. Here you'll find yourself conveniently located for exploring Portugal's vibrant second city, with a range of authentic restaurants, trendy bars and cafes, as well as museums, art galleries, and fabulous shops right on your doorstep. Located on the Marquês de Pombal Square, one of the most iconic streets in the charming city of Porto, the apartment is right in the thick of things.
