A unique combination of functionality and history is what you will find in these apartments, ideally located in the most central and exclusive area in downtown Porto, a few meters from Ribeira and right in the middle of the historical centre, with all kinds of cultural and gastronomical offers nearby. The apartments are part of rehabilitation work on a building that was born from the ruins of the Convent of S. Domingos (13th century), devoured by a violent fire in 1832. Built on the ruins of the old chapel, the charred stones on all the walls of the apartments are all that remains, as a memory of the former convent. The building, therefore, intends to be a compromise between past and present. The Past is represented by the original construction (from the 19th century), of excellent quality, which we tried to respect as much as possible. The Present is illustrated by the contemporary design in adaptation to the service of our guests. Come and enjoy the generous space of the apartments, the comfort, the careful design and the harmonious coexistence of antique and contemporary furniture. We offer you TV, internet, air conditioning, very comfortable mattresses, and fully equipped kitchens, including a washing machine and dryer. All units are fitted with air conditioning and free Wifi. Also note that the building doesn't offer an elevator and all apartments come with stairs to climb. We thought above all, to preserve the testimonies from the past, while in conformity with the well-being of our guests when designing the "Capela Apartments". Situated in the centre of Porto, 300 metres from Palacio da Bolsa and 200 metres from Ferreira Borges Market, the popular points of interest near the apartment include Ribeira Square, Sao Bento Metro Station and Sao Bento Train Station. The nearest airport is Francisco Sá Carneiro, 16 km from Apartamentos da Capela, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

The apartments are located in the most exclusive area of the city centre, in the middle of all the most important points of historical and tourist interest and in the vibrant cultural and nightlife area where you will find numerous restaurants, cafes and bars for all tastes and all wallets. Just 2 minute walk from Ribeira, one of the city's most iconic places, next to the Douro with its magnificent views of the river and its bridges, of which the D. Luís I Bridge stands out. Just a bit more there is the S.Bento metro and train Station, another one of the city's ex-libris and from Rua das Flores, a beautiful pedestrian artery full of restaurants and cafes for all tastes.
