Very nice hotel! Room was very clean, updated, quiet, cozy with just enough storage space. Breakfast was wonderful. Staff was very helpful. Only reason I gave it less than five stars is that the location is somewhat far from town. It’s totally walkable and safe, even at night, but it is a little farther out. Would still highly recommend, just know you’ll be a bit outside the main sites in town (but again, definitely still walkable).

The breakfast options were broad with all being fresh and delicious. The staff at the hotel were pleasant and welcoming, always ready to help. We were able to leave our bags upon check-out, which was important for us as we had a night bus. We would highly recommend this place. Obrigados!

The staff were all so sweet and lovely! And the breakfast is delicious with lots of variety and well worth the money. Overall a great stay and would stay again. The area is close to the centre but further away from most of the tourists so it’s quieter, and neighbourhood isn’t as well lit as would’ve liked for a female solo travelled at night so would suggest to be more cautious. There’s also plenty of nice restaurants in the area. Would stay again if were in Porto again!

Quick stop

I was in Porto just for the night and I really wish I had stayed here when I was in Porto previously! This is a really cute place to stay. It is well renovated and is really clean. My room was small but really comfortable. The icing on the cake though is the staff. Every time I walked passed a staff member they greeted me and asked if I was ok. I felt very at home here. I am sad that I wasn't able to experience the patio, bar etc while I was here.....just means I have something to come back for :)

Fantastic place for Porto

This is just like a hotel, couldn't fault it really. The basic rooms are a bit smaller, but it worked fine for us (a young couple). The superior rooms are really nice. Everything is lovely and clean and comfortable, bathrooms are great, aircon works well. The terrace is a real bonus and the customer service and staff at the check-in desk were excellent. It's in a great area with plenty of bar and restaurants around, nice to see a new bit of the city which has a good vibe.

My wife and I spent seven nights at this lovely guest house. Nice room, we went for the superior which was great. Very nice breakfast, terrace area for outside seating. Small bar for drinks too. TV has some channels in other European languages. Good WiFi. Close to metro station and a couple of handy bus stops to downtown or the coastal suburb of Matosinhos. Can't wait to visit again.

Boavista Guest House is a lovely, friendly and clean place to base yourself when in Porto. It is away from the touristy part of town and only a short walk to the city. The train line is just around the corner. There is a good 24 hour parking lot about a 5 minute walk away for under €10 a day. The breakfast provided was more than enough to get us through to lunch. I would absolutely stay there again.

Fantastic staff

Wonderful staff, I mean really really really wonderful staff. Great position for a hotel to explore Porto. But the room was tiny, and for us the bed was too firm. That being said, if you are only in Porto for a couple of days and like a firm bed, then I would happily recommend Boavista.

Great stay and great people

We had a very pleasant stay. We stayed for a total of 23 days so we got to experience pretty much everything there. The balcony was wonderful. We would sit there while enjoying a snack or meal and watch the everyday life of Porto down on the street. Our only real complaint was that the internet was spotty. The staff were really helpful and nice. Breakfast was tasty and a great way to start our day.

Great place to stay! Even with your furry friend!

I stayed for a week at Boavista Guest House and I truly recommend this place! Location is super central and within walking distance both to downtown, República, and to Boavista, Campo Alegre, etc. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the rooms are cozy, clean, and my room had a superb balcony over Boavista. Plus, it is pet-friendly, so I could take my dog with me, and they even placed a cute dog bowl in my room! Definitely recommend!

Great place to stay near city centre

Very pleased with our choice of accommodation in Porto as it was in a good location ( around 25 minutes walk into centre of Porto) and a 5 minute walk to the nearest metro station which was a short 10 minute journey to the old town of Porto. The room was small but quite adequate and comfortable with a nice view. The bathroom was again small but clean and modern. The shower was very good. The bedding was of good quality and the beds very comfortable. The staff were friendly and very helpful. As we were leaving very early they put the breakfast out a bit earlier for us to have something before we left. The breakfasts were very good with lots of fresh fruit, cereals, juices and fresh bread from the bakery nearby. Cheeses, cold meats, yogurts and various teas plus a decent coffee. The breakfast room was light, airy with modern decor. We could also catch the airport metro from the nearby station and only a 25 minute journey. All in all a lovely place to stay with good public transport or a pleasant walk. Would definitely recommend.

Good location. Lovely staff

We stayed 3 nights here in September. First time just for a night. Room quite noisy as old windows with wooden shutters on 1st floor. Good air con.
Second time after a few days travelling, and they had kindly moved us to a quieter room higher up and at the quieter back of the hotel with new double glazing, though this had no aircon, and it was very hot. We were supplied with a fan though. Rooms are modern and clean. Beds are a bit hard for my personal liking. Bathrooms modern and good.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was decent: fresh bread, croissants, fresh fruit (bananas, apples, oranges, plums), cheeses, cereal etc. Coffee a bit ropey.

Best Value in all of Porto.

Great little Guest House. Cannot be beaten for the price or even twice the price! Rooms are comfortable and clean. Comfortable terrace area for relaxing. Good breakfast. Convenient location.
WiFi needs to be improved and a splash pool would just top it, but hey overall it's a 9.5 for the cost.

Great hotel very close to the beach

We had a wonderful stay. The front desk staff were so helpful and full of great tips about the area (they were great with calling the rental car company to speak in Portuguese when we had issues!). The beach is very close and absolutely stunning - wild and beautiful sand dunes. I would highly recommend visiting this hotel and Costa Nova if you like a relaxing and beautiful beach town.

Pretty clean room and impeccable ensuite bathroom.
It's a couple of minutes away from a metro station that connects to the airport, the location in itself doesn't have anything specific. We had a street room and it wasn't very loud. Thin walls, you can hear the TV from the next room, lucky us it was only TV...
Staff felt totally indifferent to us, only negative point here.

Clean and good value

Good value hotel located a short walk from the main part of the city centre and close to metro station. Room was clean and bathroom fitted to a high standard, and was fairly compact for a twin room. Only minor complaints: window was next to a roof which made the room very noisy during rainy periods, and buffet breakfast was very basic.

Very clean but not very comfortable!

Everything in the hotel was very clean and functional and the staff were very friendly and helpful. However, there is a serious lack of comfort and everything is so dated it was like being in a UK seaside B&B 30 years ago! My room had a double bed, a bedside table and a wardrobe - no chair, no table, nowhere to sit other than on the bed. The bathroom was very small with one of the tiniest sinks I have ever used and not even a shelf to put my things on. I think I could have done much better for the same price. On the plus side, it is very close to Carolina Michaelis metro station which is on the line from the airport and is also very easy to get to and from the city centre. I wouldn't stay there again though.

Great option for a stay in Porto, very satisfied.

I have no complaint honestly. The only thing is that the rooms are somehow small. Apart from that, it's a great \"value for money\" option. Staff super-friendly and professional, location good, cleanliness impeccable... Bathroom excellent and renovated. Didn't try the food at the hotel as there were so many delicious things to eat out in the city, but it should be good. Highly recommended.

Perfect guest house, 3 minutes from the metro line

Very helpful, knowledge of everywhere in town to go and how much things cost. First thing they sat me down and opened up a map and said what would you like to see or do during your stay, they then drew out exactly how I could get around the town and explained how to find the metro line and how to use it.

They upgraded me without any charge, had free wifi throughout the guest house too.

I throughly recommend that you think of the Boavista Guest House, it is 75% cheaper than over priced places like 'The Grande Porto Hotel' and from what I saw of that place it was living on old fortunes, completely didn't deserve to charge people the prices it did.

Great location and helpful staff

Right around the corner from a Metro station and 10-15mins stroll into the centre this hotel is in a great location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was clean, a little small but that doesn't matter if you're not staying indoors much. Great en suite, modern shower and fittings. Breakfast isn't hot, cereals, coffee and bread rolls, croissants and cheese/ham slices. It's adequate but not hangover breakfasts! They run breakfasts til 10.30 on weekends so you can lay in. Overall a great little place... oh and a fab terrace for relaxing.
