"The most memorable and best experience of my Porto trip was staying at Charm GH by YourPorto. The location is amazing. The best view of Porto just few yards away. You can walk to the river and the iconic metal bridge. The room is extremely clean and beautifully setup. The bathroom, the towels, the bedsheets, pillows are all extremely clean and meet the luxury hotel standards. Healthy breakfast with fresh fruits, egg, bakery, cheese…orange juice, tea, and coffee. Carla is so friendly. I highly...

"Great hostel, owner is super nice, knowledgeable and helpful. Place is just a 10 minute walk to the main area of Gaia and Porto, so its quiet, but also convenient. I got a private room in this hostel, but I'm sure a dorm room would've been fine. Free breakfast every morning and owner offers recommendations or engaging conversations about Portugal and Porto. They did my laundry for 10 euros too, which was great. "

"Best hotel as it is more like a studio apartment with kitchenette (refrigerator, etc) and within walking distance of the river, highly recommend and would stay here again, a little confusing how to get there by walking from the train station but probably could have taken a taxi from the train"

The Yellow House :)

8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (18)
"The Yellow House was clean and comfortable. Paulo’s mother was lovely, greeting us and pouring us port to celebrate our arrival. She kindly showed us the basics of our place, and even walked us down the street to show us where to go and eat. Fado Portuguese was so close, great food, wine and live Fado. Be healthy and reasonably active…lots of hills to climb here, but so much to see."

8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (182)
"This is a real value for money hotel. I was on the sixth floor and the room and bathroom were spotless, with the rooms serviced daily. The bed was really comfortable and there was no disturbance from traffic noise at night even though the metro line runs directly outside the hotel. Although admittedly I was at the back of the hotel which would be quiter in any case. The staff were welcoming, professional and extremely helpful with check-in and check-out being effortless. I had an issue with...
