Concierge "This residencial—a simply hostelry that's a bit like a boarding house, only without the meals—lies smack in the center of the old city, overlooking busy Avienda dos Aliados."
Fodor's "The well-equipped, comfortable rooms in this excellent pensão are usually in great demand, partly because it's right in the center of town." Full review
Michelin Guide "This beautiful Beaux-Arts building located in the centre of town boasts polished wood floors and newly furnished rooms."

Best to request one at the back.

Throw in its free walking tours, homemade dinners on request, port wine tastings, concerts, and you'll see why it's booked up so often – reserve ahead.

The Telegraph9.0
"So much more than just a bed for the night, Gallery Hostel, with its rooms named after local architects, writers and artists, gives you a real flavour of Porto." Full review
Time Out "Gallery Hostel is anything but dodgy share accommodation, with a boutique concept that aligns it more to a shared-room hotel than a hostel." Full review
