Porto is a place where cosmopolitan development and ancient charm don’t simply co-exist, they beautifully collide. Some things belong firmly to times gone by, like the narrow medieval alleyways and multicoloured shop fronts of the charming Ribeira district. Meanwhile, edgy advancement has crept in through boutique shops, trendy eateries and slick bars, somehow managing to repurpose the past. Scan the skyline to see for yourself the merging of these worlds, from the Dom Luis I Bridge to Casa da Música. Start your unforgettable Porto adventure at Premium Porto Downtown.
Located in the historical centre, this modern hotel allows you to look out across Porto from one of the best vantage points. Sitting on the panoramic rooftop as the sun sets upon the city provides a unique perspective few visitors are privileged to enjoy. Alongside a 360-degree view, you can also savour contemporary Portuguese flavours at the onsite restaurant.
In each of the 56 rooms you will find clean, crisp and minimal decor, as well as a generous amount of space for such a desirable downtown setting. Extra comforts such as air conditioning, flat-screen cable TV and a mini-bar come as standard. This may be city centre accommodation, yet there’s a distinct air of tranquillity about the place. The calming colour schemes, use of natural wood and cosy areas like the library corner no doubt contribute to this relaxing ambience.
Step outside the front door to find some of this city’s most famous sights: the old of the Porto Coliseum and the new of the bustling bars and restaurants on Galerias de Paris. Barely a ten-minute walk will take you to the iconic Clérigos Tower, the Douro River and the site of the Port Wine Cellars. Compelling architecture, fine wines and wondrous city walks await for your Porto break at Premium Porto Downtown.
