Historic Center Porto - Passeio das Cardosas

The apartment is located in Passeio das Cardosas, a project representative of a remarkable work of urban rehabilitation in downtown Porto. It is a block bounded on the north by Praça da Liberdade, on the east by Praça de Almeida Garrett, on the south by Rua das Flores and on the west by Largo dos Lóios and Rua Trindade Coelho. This intervention allowed the public to open a new square, Praça das Cardosas, inside the block. The Square has 24-hour surveillance and its interior is closed from 7:00 p.m. and only residents are allowed to enter.
The apartment was carefully decorated, emphasizing the quality of the materials and the comfort of the textures of the fabrics used. Well sized and comfortable for 2 people, with a play area with two armchairs, a table and TV. The sleeping area has a double bed, equipped with bed linen, Colunex mattress that offers health and well-being, headrest in capitoné of white skin and sufficient cushions to guarantee the necessary comfort. We have a guest bed that will be installed whenever necessary. The room has underfloor heating which allows full comfort even in the winter months.
On the upper floor we have the kitchen and the dining table. The kitchen is equipped to provide a good culinary experience: stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, freezer, extractor hood, toaster and kettle.
The toilet is equipped with a modern set of hanging crockery, a bathtub with shower and a closet. We offer towels, bath sheets, hair dryer, washing machine, iron, ironing board and drying rack.
The cleaning of the apartment is ensured by a carefully selected suitable company. In case of prolonged stays the periodicity of cleaning will be agreed with the guest by means of price adjustment.
We have wireless internet and access to cable TV.
The apartment has 2 mini balconies overlooking Rua das Flores and São Bento Station (metro and trains).
The parking lot is located on the lower floors of the condominium, with elevators to Praça das Cardosas. In case of need of parking we thank you to mention in the reservation to be included the additional cost. (€ 30 per day)
Outside there are supermarkets, grocery stores, cafes, bakeries, restaurants, bars and a taxi rank.
Located in the heart of the historical center of Porto, all important monuments can be visited on foot: the Clérigos Tower, the Cathedral of Porto, the Lello bookstore, the Stock Exchange Palace, Ferreira Borges Market, Ribeira Square, River Douro are only 5 to 10 minutes away.

Beautiful Apartment

A great place to stay in Porto, you could not ask for a better location. The apartment is very comfortable, well stocked and immaculate. The safe, underground parking is just steps away. We would highly recommend this property, and we would rent here again if in Porto in the future.

Wonderful property - perfect location!

We spent 5 wonderful days in Porto and a lot had to do with our stay in this wonderful apartment. Susete was so helpful and gave us all the information we needed to get into the apartment but also gave us such helpful suggestions and recommendations to make our stay even more memorable. We felt very safe and comfortable in the apartment. It had everything you could need. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. It does get a little noisy later in the evening, but it didn’t keep us up.

An Awesome Place

We absolutely loved this location and little apartment. Although on a busy street, when you closed all of the doors on the little balconies, the sound was almost completely blocked. The apartment had all the amenities anyone would ever need to have a wonderful stay in Porto. Communication with the property manager was excellent. Susete was able to answer all of our questions and always responded in a timely manner. The place was very clean and the tub was excellent for someone who enjoys a bath! Loved our little home for the week. Loved Porto!

Beautiful lil apartment, very well appointed. Very near Sao Bento stn so can hop off train 2 mins away. Loads of resto, shops, sights all around. It is very urban so there is street noise until about 22-23h. 10 min walk to Douro river front. Loved it

Stay at Praça Cardosas

Clean, well appointed studio apartment in an active neighborhood. Numerous small shops and restaurants nearby. One block away from Sao Bento. The number of steps in the apartment can be tricky to navigate at night in the dark; but you soon get used to them.
