Very welcoming and comfortable
Very friendly staff was very welcoming. We had a loooong flight. We got settled in our room before enjoying some delicious Port and cake. We received a map and personal recommendations on where to visit. Breakfast was fabulous! Would highly recommend. My son and I stayed here after flying into Porto and before beginning our Camino journey in Baiona.

Very good location. Be careful or you’ll pass right by it. The front door looks like a door to an apartment. The name is on the door. If you arrive before check in, they have a very comfortable lounge to wait at. A very convenient grocery store is just down the block from the hotel. Very walkable to many sights.

A lovely stay here. A good-sized room and bathroom with a comfortable bed and mini-bar. Really friendly staff and a welcome drink with cake on arrival! They gave us good recommendations for restaurants and boat trips on the Douro River. We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed it. We would definitely stay here again.

The location is in the heart of the city. Parking can be an issue but the staff know of a few spots for a decent rate. Rooms are large and have everything you need. The staff are amazing, even helped me figure out the Portuguese highway toll system. No elevator., but a dumb waiter for luggage. Well appointed breakfast included as well.

The area around the property seemed quite safe. There were a lot of food options around and the hotel is located right in front of a lovely food market. The staff was incredibly nice, attentive, and caring. The room was big and spacious. The only improvements I would suggest is to increase the brightness in the bathroom given the tiling is dark, and to ensure there are no bugs in the room before guests check in as there were two flies and a mosquito in our room which we had to chase to get rid of. We would stay at this location again.

Awesome Location and Friendly Staff
With roomy, comfortable rooms, and a great location across from the Mercado do Bolhao, this was the perfect place for our stay in Porto. The front desk host, Anna, was friendly and extremely helpful in guiding us to some of the top spots to visit in Porto. She was also very accommodating in making sure we had breakfast available prior to regular breakfast hours on the day we left early for a Duoro Wine Tour. Thank you, Anna. We are looking forward to our return to B the Guest Downtown!

Best Boutique Hotel in Portugal
We can not say enough good things to say about this beautiful hotel. The front desk girls went above and beyond to make us familiar with the area and were a joy to chat with. The morning breakfast people put out a home made delight and the setting of the unique artwork is just a joy to spend time in. You are right down in the middle walking distance to everything......I can't wait to go back!!! Thank you for a wonderful experience on our first day in Portugal...
