Menina Colina Guesthouse

This is a lovely little hotel with delightful staff. The hotel is in a very low key area opposite the hospital but wasn’t noisy at all. It has been beautifully refurbished and the garden is lovely for a drink or spot of lunch. We stayed in the main hotel and also in the garden room which was spacious (slightly lacking in privacy as there are only light curtains covering the large glass windows). It’s exceptionally clean and the staff are real gems, especially Felipe who gave us great restaurant recommendations and was so charming and helpful. We would definitely recommend this hotel and we will be back to stay here!

Fantastic place to stay. The building has been beautifully restored while having all the modern facilities necessary. Our room was spacious, well-appointed and comfortable and, had the weather been better, we would have enjoyed the west-facing balcony (and the garden). Breakfast was just as thoughtful, our food was colourful, healthy and nicely presented. Everyone we met was helpful, efficient and concerned to make our stay enjoyable. 'Thank you' to them.

A renovated City Villa, well situated in Porto. The inner city is quickly accessible by foot, including sights, restaurants and bars. Parking is a bit of a problem though. The rooms are stylishly renovated and highly recommendable. The garden is very well kept and host to regular (about once a week) musical or literary events on the early evening hours. SItting on the rooms private balcony and listening to live music was indeed a nice event. The breakfast-buffet isn't very plentiful but you get served a freshly cooked warm breakfast in return. 10/10 Interior and rooms 6/10 breakfast 9/10 Location 9/10 Staff Das Hotel ist eine renovierte Stadtvilla mit modern eingerichteten Zimmern. Das Stadtzentrum ist sehr gut zu fuß zu erreichen, Sehenswürdigkeiten, Restaurants und Bars inklusive. Die Parksituation ist hingegen etwas kompliziert. Im schön hergerichteten garten werden etwa einmal wöchentlich Musik- oder Literaturveranstaltungen abgehalten (am frühen Abend). Vom Zimmerbalkon aus Livemusik zu hören ist durchaus ein angenehmes Erlebnis. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist sehr spartanisch gehalten, dafür bekommt man jeden morgen ain warmes Frühstück aus der Küche serviert. 10/10 EInrichtung und Zimmer 6/10 Frühstück 9/10 Standort 9/10 Mitarbeiter

Very homie, the staff went out of way to acomódate us, love the decoration, good location.

This was a beautiful guest house with a very attentive staff and an amazing breakfast. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

This is a fabulous place to stay!

The Menina Colina Guesthouse is the epitome of lovely. It was a family home, beautifully converted to a guesthouse. There is a charming backyard where you can enjoy a coffee or wine. Breakfasts were ample and quite good. The highlight of our stay was the friendly, gracious, and helpful staff. The only possible problem would be for someone who has difficulties with stairs, or with walking uphill to the guesthouse. I highly recommend it.

We found this as a more affordable place to stay and are thrilled we did. A rescured, rehabilitated building at the top of the hill on the porto side. Unassuming from the outside, you step into old elegance once past the door. Don’t be afraid to unload while double parked (flashers on) , traffic goes around with nary a honk. We stayed in the apar**enton the third floor (no elevator, sorry) as it slept 4. Beds are very comfortable, linens are nice, and the bathoom had everything we needed. The breakfast needs to be ordered at booking, or the day before, but was lovely. The best cinamon french toast i’ve had, OJ, fruit, fresh espresso-made coffes, scrambled egg, and rolls and yogurt. All served with warmth. For us, the clincher is the back yard. It is green, lush, and peaceful. Coffee at one of the tables or breakfast on the (small) balcony is a delight. The quay is down the hill, probably a tem min. walk. Of course it is a 20 min. walk back up (we chose to take a cab having already walked enough hills). Wewould be happy to return.
