"If you hear your hosts at Vila Foz Hotel & Spa talking about “Ninimalism,” it’s not a mistranslation, and the pun is fully intended. The Portuguese designer Nini Andrade Silva has been known to design-oriented travelers since long before the current boom in Portuguese design hotels, and her signature style is on display here at Vila Foz. It’s a stunning, ornate 19th-century manor house on Porto’s Atlantic coast, and while its architecture has been meticulously restored, its interior design — especially in the guest rooms — is beautifully contemporary, just like everything we’ve seen from Ms. Andrade Silva over the years." - Tablet Hotels
