About this property

Flowerstreet54 - Fascinating LoveSeats at the downtown center

Due to its important role in Porto's history, 'Rua das Flores' Street has more visitors during the day than local people. It's a place you cannot miss. Why not stay here for some days instead of just passing through?

This self-catering apartment, on the 1st floor, is carefully furnished and features hardwood floors. This well-sized and comfortable apartment is for two people. There is one bedroom with one queen-sized bed. The bathroom is clean with a modern suite and has a bathtub and shower. Clean bath towels, Linen, and tableware are all included and the kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, stove, oven, fridge, toaster, kettle, and all you need to prepare your own meals. We can supply a travel crib at an extra cost.

The Flowerstreet54 building was completely rebuilt in 2005 and had to keep the original architecture by the imposition of the Culture Department of Portugal to maintain its beautiful Portuguese style. The apartment is 300 meters from Ribeira Square. Located just a 4-minute walk from the Metro station 'São Bento' and also São Bento Railway Station, arriving from Oporto airport or any other place in Porto city is easy. The location is convenient, fast and economical and from here you can easily take advantage of all other public and tourist transport.

Next, to the apartment, there are supermarkets, grocery stores, coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants, bars, museums, and taxi stops. Set in the heart of Porto's historic district, all-important monuments can be explored on foot. For example, Clerigos Tower, Lello Library, Bolsa Palace, Ferreira Borges Market, and Ribeira are all just 4 minutes away.

You can also visit the wine cellars of Porto and the Cais de Gaia by simply walking across D. Luís Bridge and getting the chance to do a Cruise in the River. Nearby you can rent bicycles, program a guided visit, and get the tram to the beach on a beautiful trip along the Douro River to the beautiful village of Pinhão.

Late check-in is acceptable until 02:00 a.m. (probably self-check-in after 20:00 via Key Box). Late check-out is possible if we don't have new guests on the same day. We will be at the apartment on your arrival to welcome you, and give you the apartment keys and all the necessary information that you may need for a perfect stay, including nice tips on what to visit. You will always be able to contact us by mobile phone or WhatsApp.

Ideal Location
Christina was the perfect host, she was there to welcome us and provided lots of tips on what to see in Porto. The apartment was ideally located. The apatment is well appointed and comfortable. Being in the centre of the action the neighbourhood is vibrant and alive during the day and evening but things always quieted down later in the evening.

Right in the heart of the action. The apartment was furnished and equipped to perfection. We particularly enjoyed all the activity on the street below, from street musicians to strollers out for the evening. A Perfect stay!

Centre of the Action
I chose this rental for its fantastic location. It’s super close to the metro for ease of travel, makes getting around a breeze. Centrally located also has you close to all the shops and attractions. This rental is right in the heart of the city/action. The windows do a great job blocking all the sound out when they’re closed - but having no air conditioning means you’ll want them open most of the time. As long as noise doesn’t bother you, you’ll love it! Live music and the hustle and bustle of the city makes the experience all the more exciting! Christina was a fabulous host, quick to respond and help us arrange a car back to the airport when it was time to leave. I would absolutely rent from Christina again :)

Why they chose this property

Location is crucial when visiting a city like Porto and our flat couldn't be more central than this. Metro and Train stations at 200 meters. One of the most important streets in Porto named "Rua das Flores", near Ribeira, is full of beautiful buildings, street artists, and fantastic stores. Clerigos Tower, Lello Bookstore, Bolsa Palace, and many others are all at less than 500m. Visit the wine cellars of Porto simply walking across D. Luís Bridge and getting the chance to do a Douro Cruise. Imagine being able to roll out of bed and into the bustling streets of Porto within minutes.

What makes this property unique

This apartment is located in a prime location in the heart of the city, where you will be able to walk to many of the city's top attractions. Despite being in an old building, the inside of the apartment has been completely renovated, giving you the best of both worlds. You get the charm and character of an older building combined with the modern conveniences and comforts of a newly renovated space.

Overall, this apartment in the center of Porto is a great choice for those looking for a comfortable and convenient place to call home while exploring all that the city has to offer. You will not need to rent a car and the bus, train, and metro will help you in the rare cases that you will need to leave the historical area. If you still consider renting a car or coming with it from other cities, In the historic center of Porto, is not easy to find street parking without paying regardless of the apartment that you rent in this area. But there are two underground parking areas, both of them only 200 meters away (Ribeira Park and Cardosas Park). You can check the parking price here: https://parclick.com/parking-porto
