Casa do Conto - Arts & Residence (Porto, Norte) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels
"With its minimalist urban interiors, it’s hard to imagine that Casa do Conto was originally a private 19th century residence. The property has undergone a radical transformation to create just six guest rooms, which now feature industrial-style raw concrete walls, contemporary shades of gray and sleek stainless steel light fittings that contrast with the smattering of vintage furnishings and gilded gold antique mirrors. The public spaces include a living room, library, dining room, and garden, and guests can also use bar Hífen at sister hotel Tipografia do Conto, which hosts a regular cultural program of exhibitions, concerts and events." - Tablet Hotels

Perfect location..centrally located and within a max 25min walk or very short drive to most major tourist sites but far enough away from all the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed coming back to a nice and peaceful space after our busy days.
The hotel itself is a small boutique hotel, sophisticated but cozy. The staff is wonderful, friendly and accommodating. I look forward to staying here once again on our next visit to Porto.

Great location and friendly staff. Few downside - room is motion sensor, as soon as you leave beyond 10 minutes - everything switches off. When asked, answer is simple - we do this for the eco system. Next, laundry service - wash and fold but all clothes were still wet. Next, no bottle and filter water - when asked, response is just drink directly from the tap. Management may need to pay attention how to make this more pleasant to travelers but overall this is not 4 star hotel . I’d say close to 3.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa do Conto in Porto. The building itself is a perfect mix of history and modern design, with every detail thoughtfully chosen. The atmosphere feels both elegant and welcoming, making it a very special place to stay. We lived on a top floor and had the best room with terrace.
The staff were warm, attentive and allways ready to help.
Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with local touches that made it even more memorable. The location is also ideal – only a short walk from the heart of Porto. Casa do Conto is truly unique, and we would gladly stay here again.

We stayed at Casa do Conto for 3 nights in August 2025. We absolutely fell in love with the interiors, the furniture selection and materials. Then, as soon as we arrived, the staff was kind and helpful. We had a great stay, cannot wait to come back.

Absolutely fantastic experience here. Beautiful room. Nice staff and amazing breakfast with well prepared homemade items.. A bit out of the way from the tourist areas (20 min walk) but very much worth it at the reasonable rates they were charging.

Unique, comfortable, quiet and perfectly situated in lovely Porto, Casa do Conto provided a warm welcome and a desire to meet our every need. Each morning brought a very fresh, delicious breakfast hosted by a cheerful, dedicated hostess. Without pause, Casa do Conto has the kindest staff in Portugal. We recommend the accommodation to all!

This is a place you don't want to leave! The staff is amazing. Viana went above and beyond to make your stay very pleasant.
She is cheerful, friendly and a problem solver. The beds are extremely comfortable and the breakfast was perfect. A lot of options including yogurt, fruit, meats, cheeses, bread, crepes and granola. This place has a beautiful garden area in the back of the breakfast area. We felt very safe and it was convenient to public transport. We will be back!!

This is a great hotel somewhat off the beaten path in Porto. Don't let that deter you though. It's about a 10 min walk to the downtown area. It's uniquely designed and the staff members were more than accommodating. They helped us with directions, gave us a tour of our room and also helped us with transportation. While staying here, my travel partner got sick, and the staff retrieved various items for her even though everything was closed (tea, ice, etc.). We had to leave super early in the AM and they still made us breakfast. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again if I was visiting Porto.
