Hotel Details

The upscale Artist Porto Hotel & Bistro is a 5-star, 17-room boutique in a converted art school. The hotel's restaurant features light- and dark-blue tub chairs, blue wallpaper, and a muted brown carpet. The lobby features polished light-brown travertine floors, statues and wood carvings, and a blue front desk. Walls display wood-relief carvings, prints, and portraits.

“What stands out is the school-hotel concept: tourism students run the place, bringing youthful energy to this quiet corner of Porto. The restaurant, A Escola, is their hands-on classroom, serving tasting menus crafted by experienced chefs. I'd say this is an interesting way to experience the city-both luxurious and educational.”
