Rooms were big, we stayed in 2 bedrooms. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable and had full kitchen. Ines (PM or owner) was very hospitable, helpful and responsive. She responds to our questions promptly. I highly recommend Republica 157. Again, thank you so much Ines!
Beautiful little apartment with comfy bed! Such sweet extras left by the owner: a cute little bottle of port to toast, water, coffee, a nap with recommendations. Truly kind attention to detail and very accommodating to early or late coming and going with a secure space for luggage offered. Thank you!
I was immediately taken by the hospitality and thoughtful and unique touches in my room. I loved the location as it was away from business but close enough to walk to everything and anything. I also had one of the best and most affordable meals of my trip right across the street. I was missing a breakfast and found myself hungry every morning, but that's not to take anything away from this gorgeous unique place. It's just to tell you if you need a breakfast in the morning, this might not be a fit for you. But boy oh boy, if they had breakfast, I would be in heaven. I would definitely stay here again.
The stay at República 157 was fantastic and Inês was so helpful with providing recommended sights to see and walking paths from the place. The supermarket is also close by and convenient
I really enjoyed my stay here. The guest house was spacious, quiet, and very clean. The host offered helpful insight as to restaurants and tourist attractions.
Well located, spacious apartment that exceeded my expectations! The place is enormous and the bed was so comfortable with a nice firm mattress. There was no noise or disturbance and the building has a lift to assist with bringing luggage upstairs. The check in process was totally smooth and I couldn't fault this place! Would highly recommend.
Absolutely brilliant. The accommodation was very spacious, very tastefully decorated, lots of facilities and everything was spotless and fresh. We even had two toilets. The bed was big, crispy clean and so comfortable. Lots of lovely thoughtful personal touches. Ines was really helpful and very welcoming. We could even get into our room 3 hours earlier, which was so helpful. She also arranged for our taxi to the airport. Ines own recommendations out together in a map were great. We highly recommend this place. The beautiful park opposite was just getting finished and once done will make this hotel even more desirable. If we come back to Porto we know the best place to stay 😊
Property was conveniently located within walking distance to shops and restaurants. Very clean and comfortable room. Welcome drink of port in the room was a nice touch. Our room had a view of the street and park, which I enjoyed. Will definitely recommend staying here. Love Porto!!
Our stay exceed our expectations. Check in was simple, the stay itself was comfortable with a lot of attention to detail (personalised map). The place was much bigger than we thought it would be.
For us, the location was perfect. A little out of the city centre but not too far.
Well decorated and furnished.
10/10 experience!
I have stayed at many places in the world, but this one was special! Everything was perfectly organised and the host is super friendly and reliable. A save locker room to leave the luggage was a plus! Will definitely stay here again.
The host is very nice and friendly. She helped us to carry the bags inside as it was raining. We are very thankful to her. The place was clean and beautiful. The location also is very convenient.
It was so lovely, super clean and accomadating. They left us coffee pods and water everyday. The room is fully equipped with everything you could think of. The best thing was really the cleanliness. Close walk to the city center and the area has supermarkets/restaurants open and felt safe. Would absolutely recommend!!
A wonderfully unique place. The apartment had everything I needed for convenience, the hotel is located on a beautiful square from which there is a street with many restaurants and boutiques and about a 15-minute walk you enter directly into the city center. I used Uber that cost almost nothing to get to train station.
Stayed 3 nights in this fantastic apartment. The room was spotless and a lot of original features have been retained. Its only a short walk from Trindade metro station and a similar distance to the old town.The host provided grest communication and maps of the local area and attractions were also provided. I can highly recommend staying here.
Amazing hospitality and amazing space. i booked the space 3 xs in 2 weeks. Ines the proprietor was so helpful and generous. welcome port too! dont miss this space. Safe, clean, next door to a fabulous cafe for any meal and also next door to a fabulous jazz club. enjoy!
Everything was just perfect. Ines was so welcoming and made sure I was stocked with plenty of water and coffee/tea and had great recommendations for restaurants and things to do. Beautiful and comfortable apartment overlooking a park in a very secure building and safe area. Perfect location in Porto. I could have stayed a lot longer if I had not already had planned to walk the Camino de Santiago. Highly recommend!!
Republica157 is a gem. The commitment to design excellence is evident in every detail, with exceptionally stylish furnishings and decor that create a welcoming atmosphere of understated luxury. The charming attention at every moment comes from a sincere desire to make guests feel valued, and help them explore this wonderful city. The combination of design, comfort, service and a very convenient location near key attractions makes it a standout choice for anyone visiting Porto. The experience overall was excellent, and I eagerly look forward to returning again (and again) to this truly exceptional place.
Remarkable accommodation ~ with super thoughtfulness. Staying a total of 6 nights in Porto, so very lucky to hit on this state of the art guest house. Sleep on cloud feel king bed plus giant comfy sofa bed. Smart TV is now offered. Big fridge and full kitchenette. Everyday water in designer’s bottle plus capsule coffee, wait at your door. We love Porto more because of this unique place and of course, the generous hospitality from host. Room is spacious that I jog every morning before self prepared abundance breakfast. You won’t believe, right. Really unbelievable, have to come and check. And there are endless details in the room, check them all out. You find them in other reviews. I definitely will re~visit Porto if only, I successfully book this place. One minor issue, need to close all window and turn on air~con while sleeping if you are travelling from soundless city. Not noisy but next to road with random traffic. It’s a six star Guest House, thanks HOST 😊Hugs
