Photos and Description of the Vitoria vacation apartment rental
Right in the centre

It's a just renewed apartment with all the commodities of contemporary life, with a little taste of its original modernist architecture. The building is from the fifties it was the first street in Porto to have had a proper urban project made by one of the finest Júlio Brito, the same author of Coliseu do Porto.

It's a two bedroom, one with a double bed, and the other with two large singles. The kitchen is an open plan to the living room, with a small balcony to Clérigos Tower. It is equipped with all appliances and hygiene stuff like soap and shampoo;and all the small comforts you may need so travel light!

Yes, these are all theatres within walking distance. Three of them are part of the National Theatre TNSJ São João : TECA - Teatro Carlos Alberto, MSBV São Bento da Vitória Monestry. Also Rivoli Theatre and the Coliseu. Rivoli and Coliseu are independent and have a variety of shows that include musicals, dance and concerts.

Museum Soares dos Reis : Just renewed museum in the heart of Porto, counts with a great collection of Portuguese artists in all these different areas: ceramics, sculpture, engraving, jewellery, furnishing, painting, textiles and others. Beautiful gardens. Closed on Mondays.

Churches and Cathedrals: There are so many churches within your reach that is a challenge to remember them all.

The most important are just a few 10 minutes away like St. Francis Church, St. Lourenço, S. Nicolau, Carmelitas, St. Ildefonso, Sé Cathedral , .... you choose!

Buidings and sites worth visit: Palácio da Bolsa, Mercado Ferreira Borges, Palácio das Artes, Culturgest, Livraria Lello, Palácio de Cristal, Horto das Virtudes, Passeio da Virtudes, Coordoaria Gardens, São Bento Station, Aliados.

Close to local markets such as Mercado do Bolhão for your groceries, or Carlos Alberto for a funky antique, or Ferreira Borges with its diverse cultural program: short films, theatre performances, concerts, and nightclub HardClub; and it's weekend market: with gourmet goods and secondhand clothes.

Porto is not well known for it's beaches (though they are really swell), so you should definitely check in for winter time as well! Hot coffee, hot chocolate, hot tea, hot culture time too! :)

Um Apartamento muito bom!

5 of 5
Submitted: November 18, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
Este apartamento é muito agradável. É exatamente como as fotos, super limpo, muito bem decorado.
A Sr. Mafalda é muito atenciosa e ajudou-nos em tudo.
O preço é bastante acessível para o tipo de apartamento que é.
Também é muito bom para as crianças (meu bebé adorou).
Owner's Response: Olá Marta, muito obrigada pela resposta! Fico contente que esteja mais uma família agradada com as condições do apartamento. Tentamos sempre fazer melhor de acordo com as considerações das pessoas que vão habitando o apartamento, mesmo que por escassos dias. É bom saber que as pessoas se sentem imediatamente em casa, ou melhor ainda de férias! :P

Wonderful stay

We ( party of 5 ) had a wonderful stay in this apartment. It was exactly as in the photos and was well equipped, spotlessly clean and beautifully set out. The location of the apartment was perfect, so close to all the amenities we needed and sites we wanted to see.Mafalda couldn't have been kinder or more helpful and gave us excellent recommendations of places to eat and also to visit. Red Bus Tours are ideal for seeing around Porto and saved the aching legs on the really hot days. Do make sure you visit the Yeatman Hotel for a wonderful view of Porto and to dream the dream! Many many thanks Mafalda and Andre- you're wonderful hosts and we wish you all the very best. The Chambers family.

We stayted at this lovely apartment in Porto in August 2012 with our little baby of 18 months and it was amazing. The location is perfect to visit Porto since near of tourtistic attractions by walk. Mafalda provides very useful information and tips for the staying. Well furnished, rooms provide enough space to leave and play with kids. The area is safe and provides a good view of the life in Porto. We definitely recommed this apartment for family and couple.

Great Apartment and Location

5 of 5
Submitted: August 21, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
This is a lovely apartment in an ideal location in Porto. It is spacious, sunny, and very clean. The kitchen is very well equipped and easy to use. Mafalda is a very kind and thoughtful host, always available to offer sightseeing advice and help.

The location is in the heart of downtown Porto within easy walking distance to most of the tourist sites of Porto. Nearby there are many affordable and excellent restaurants, and lots of nice places to walk and explore. It is an ideal base for visiting Porto and the surrounding area. The apartment easily accommodates families.

I was in Porto for an extended visit and very much enjoyed staying in the apartment. I would definitely recommend the apartment to others, and I would return here again on another visit to Porto.

Un appartement chaleureux au coeur de Porto

5 of 5
Submitted: August 8, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Quelle heureuse idée d'avoir loué cet appartement ! Situé au coeur de Porto, nous (deux adultes et trois enfants) avons pu visiter cette magnifique ville à pied, en métro, en tramway et en train. L'appartement est spacieux, confortable et très propre. On sent que Mafalda, la propriétaire, met tout en oeuvre pour que les locataires se sentent comme chez eux : la literie est impeccable, le mobilier en excellent état, le wi-fii disponible... Elle n'hésite pas à répondre à nos demandes et nous a envoyé par mail les meilleurs restaurants qui correspondaient à nos demandes ainsi que le trajet à suivre pour nous rendre à la plage.

Bref, un séjour inoubliable pour nous tous.
Owner's Response: Merci!

I am happy to see that the stay in the apartment has left excellent memories, that's more than we aim to achieve. We are always hoping to improve more as possible and with all the good tips from our guests we are sure to get a better response every time.

Thank you for your lovely review. Hope to see some other time!

Au revoir

Magnifica situación

4 of 5
Submitted: May 5, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
Apartamento amplio. luminoso y limpio. Estupendamente situado para visitar Oporto. Un poco ruidoso por las noches dado que está en el centro de la vida nocturna, pero muy animado. Lo recomiendo.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your feedback, as you can see in other people's reviews it really varies. Most of the people are extremely surprised with how quiet it can be in the center! And you have stayed as our guest during the holiday Easter season so I do think the extra movement in the streets is absolutely normal - vacation time to party extra.
I do think is good for the future traveler to know that this apartment is located at the heart of the city, where everything happens, where all the main historical buildings are, restaurants, cafes and bars.
We are definitely looking into making some thick velvet curtains to make the nights more comfortable for such situations, and it will make the place look gorgeous!

We (2 adults and 2 kids) had wonderful holiday in Porto at the end of March. It was summer like weather (up to 28°C). We have stayed at Vitoria apartment for 4 nights and we liked it very much. It was just perfect, let’s list only few pluses:
-Landlady is very friendly, responsive and helpful; we have got all necessary info from her by mail beforehand and personally during our stay. It was pleasure to meet her :)
-Apartment is very spacious, clean, with nice décor and all necessary facilities; it feels fresh and welcoming; it has also a good selection of guides and books about Porto and Portugal. It was really quiet at night although it faces the street.
-Location is just in the heart of Porto. Walking distance to the old part of city, 7 minutes walk from metro station, close to shopping district, surrounded by cafes and restaurants. For families with small kids I would suggest to buy 2 or 3 day ticket for city tour bus, which stops nearby apartment (tickets can be used also at regular busses).
I’ve already recommended this apartment to my friends and I can sincerely recommend it to any fellow traveler. If I will revisit Porto, I will definitely try to book this apartment.
Have a nice stay in Porto,
Renata from Bremen

We stayed in Mafalda's apartment for a week and were very pleased with it. The apartment itself is very spacious, light and clean and had everything we needed. It's location is great; it's within easy walking distance of anywhere in downtown Porto. Mafalda was very helpful and was on hand if we needed anything. Highly recommended!
Owner's Response: Thank you for such wonderful review, Porto has just been awarded as number one destination from European travellers

I hope we can make that experience as interesting as possible, with references only a local can. I am very glad to meet the expectations of our guests.
See u soon :)

Hola, animo a todas las personas que quieran pasar unos dias en Oporto y alrededores, que alquilen este piso! Yo fui con dos amigas, y a parte de que es un piso muy acogedor, barato y cómodo,la ubicación es perfecta, estas en el centro, cerca del ayuntamiento, que para organizarte las zonas que ver en Oporto es genial. Tienes cerca la estación de S. Bento, por si quieres coger un tren e ir a ver algún pueblo de alrededor (que es lo que hicimos nosotras). Por otra parte, si os apetece salir de marcha, justo en la manzana de detrás del piso, se encuentran la mayoría de pubs y discotecas de Oporto. Y por último, la propietaria es muy buena persona, te ofrece toda la ayuda que necesites, como mapas e información de como llegar del aeropuerto al apartamento, sitios que visitar, como poder acceder a ellos, horarios de los sitios, de trenes, todo, todo, es muy amable! Para nosotras ha sido una muy buena experiencia, así que ánimo! Un saludo, Joana.

A really wonderful flat, right in the centre, that instantly makes you feel at home. Incredibly useful help from the owners, and such wonderful details throughout the flat - really great. We travelled with two small kids and had no issues at all. We'll be going again!
The city and the architecture are well known to most, the trouble is this little gem of a flat really makes you want to stay in!!
