Menina Colina Guesthouse

In the heart of Porto — a 19th-century guesthouse steps from Livraria Lello and a 15-minute walk to Ribeira Square. Crystal Palace Gardens, Clerigos Tower and Bolhão Market are all within easy walking distance, putting this central guesthouse close to the city’s best sights.

Housed in a restored 19th-century building, Menina Colina Guesthouse mixes antique bones with modern furniture across just 9 air-conditioned rooms. Expect an original breakfast room, a music hall with period ornaments, a peaceful colourful garden and a terrace — small-scale, stylish and quietly charismatic. Rooms include desks, daily housekeeping and en-suite showers with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers.

Take in terrace views and wake up to garden mornings in the communal outdoor spaces. The guesthouse offers a cosy communal living room, a picnic area and complimentary wireless internet throughout the property. Luggage storage and a 24-hour roundtrip airport shuttle are available for a surcharge.

Multilingual staff, luggage storage and a safe-deposit box at the front desk help keep things running smooth. A roundtrip airport shuttle is available 24 hours for a surcharge.

A continental breakfast is served daily from 8:30 AM to 11:00 AM for a fee, and there’s an on-site restaurant for easy meals before heading out to explore Porto.
