Situated on Porto's historic Rua Santa Catarina, renowned for its shopping and endless eateries, this apartment is an excellent choice for a solo traveller or a couple wanting an authentic stay in the heart of the city. Upon entry, you'll be struck by an abundance of natural light thanks to the arched windows, creating a bright, laidback space to relax. The home is decorated in a boho style, with wood floors, homespun furniture and subtle shades of colour. Thoughtfully designed, the mezzanine bedroom extends the space upwards, resulting in high vaulted ceilings and wooden beams overhead, making for seamless modern living. Away from the apartment, you're perfectly placed for taking in the history, art and culture of the surrounding area. Many of the top attractions are easily accessible on foot, including the Chapel of Souls (seven minutes), the Santo Ildefonso Church (thirteen minutes) and the Mercado do Bolhão (ten minutes). Having worked up an appetite, head to the Batalha Square for a bite to eat at one of the fantastic gastrobars or lively cafes, just thirteen minutes away, or take the twenty-minute walk down to the beautiful waterfront restaurants in Cais da Ribeira for a delicious dinner, spent watching the boats drift along the river.
