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.

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.

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.

Die Metro und Stadtbushaltestellen sind nur ein paar Minuten entfernt und auch Parkplätze gibt es. Die große Strasse vor der Tür ist der Kompromiss für Stadtnähe. Preis & Leistungen stimmen.

I was welcomed incredibly friendly by Carla, who performed the check-in - we had a very nice chat about the Caminho and she even offered me a glass of port wine. The accommodation itself is comfortable, quiet and clean, with a terrace in the back. It's also super close to the metro station, which is very convenient for any traveller. I only stayed one night but I had a good time and good rest and would recommend it to anyone.

Best stay we had on our 2 week vacation to Spain/Portugal. The receptionist was absolutely lovely, quick messages, and a fantastic guide to help us out sent before we arrived with parking info. Loved the little patio and the welcome beverage. Was close to everything but quiet enough we didn’t hear any big city noise.

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.

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.

O hotel é bem agradável, com instalações novas. O quarto em que ficamos era bem funcional, mas apertado para 3 pessoas adultas. O café da manhã tem menos opções do que parecia nas fotos, mas é gostoso. Sugiro apenas acrescentar ovos mexidos. Nosso único contratempo foi que deixamos as toalhas de banho no local de troca, mas qdo voltamos percebemos que não haviam sido trocadas e estavam hem úmidas. Porém, qdo pedimos para trocar, fomos prontamente atendidas.
