Urban apartment - Casa da Portela is registered at the Tourism Board of Portugal (no. 5105/AL) and supervised by the local authorities, Camara Municipal do Porto and ASAE. This means it is run according to the Tourism Board rules and guidelines and that it operates within the Portuguese law. But the best independent proof of our quality is the reviews from our guests, which you are invited to read.
This apartment is cosy and urban but functional. I've put a lot of love and care in the decoration of this apartment. I love details and would like the guests to feel at home.
Sé is the most typical place in Porto. Near the Cathedral, overlooking the river. When walking along the narrow streets you'll meet not only tourists but locals who still live here.
