Convenient location!
The place is super easy to find and close to the main train station. It’s very easy to access, you get an access code in advance for both your room and the front door. Rooms are newer, but lack bathroom Privacy. They have wonderfully helpful and kind staff and a delicious breakfast!

Great staff and great location. Room 5 has a wonderful 'living area' and a fabulous view over Porto. The bathroom is practically open to the bedroom and lacks privacy.

Great location- walking distance to very nice areas. The hotel was very clean and modern— nicely and simply decorated. Breakfast was just okay.— the only staff person was a bit overwhelmed and wasn’t able to keep up with making breakfast for everyone during the more popular times. Food was fine but simple. Only real issue was getting in. When we arrived the door was looked and a code had been sent only that day to allow entry. During the day I didn’t have wifi or cell so I didn’t get the code and was locked out and no manager is on site. Not only that, once I did get access to wifi and got the code it turned out that the manager had given me the wrong room number so our room code didn’t work. Luckily the cleaning lady was there and she figured it all out. All fine in the end but a bit of an unnecessary mix up — could have been avoided by sending the entry info in advance and double checking the room number assignment.

Very good room
I stayed for 3 nights in Room No.5. The facility is quite new and clean. There is a lovely attic with a comfort sofa and a great city view. Location is good.

Avoid! No booking existed when arrived to hotel
When we arrived to the hotel it turned out its one of those unmanned hotels where you just use code to enter the building & room etc... However I had not received any code. I checked mail box/spam but nothing. I tried calling and sending them email but no answer. Not even the next day. We booked another hotel close by. Luckily there was still rooms available.

Fabulous aparthotel
Fabulous stay. Room was lovely, clean and just right for our 4 night stay. Bed was really comfy and even though there was building work right across from our room you could not hear a thing. Pedro was.really friendly and gave helpful information about what to visit and how to get there, he also cooks a mean pancake! Breakfast was also nice small selection but just what you need to start your day. Nothing was too much trouble and you felt really relaxed.It is also quite central to most of the tourist attractions. Will definitely stay here again when we visit Porto

Great hotel...with problems
The hotel is in a great area. The rooms are very new, modern, and clean. Breakfast was good. However, we had a few issues. We stayed two nights and had NO hot water both mornings. Two mornings of freezing cold showers. On the second morning, we had a strange attendant. She stood watching my husband and I eat in silence for quite sometime. It was one of the strangest interactions I've ever had with a hotel worker. My last concern is the amount of time it took the hotel to respond to emails as well as the information given. I had booked parking garage about 800 m from the hotel for 25 euro. Based on the recommendation of the hotel, I cancelled this and changed to a garage that was nearer. Unfortunately, I was left with a 75 euro bill for less than 48 hours of parking. This is partially my fault for not doing more research, but I would appreciate more considerate recommendations from the hotel staff.

Great place to stay in Porto
House of Artists is a great place to stay in central Porto. Room 5 is light, bright and really comfortable. We were extremely well looked after - nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was a real treat - who could resist fresh pancakes with fruit and syrup! You can walk to everywhere you want to see from here and it is so handy for the metro and all bus routes. I would recommend this place if you like to be in the authentic heart of the town and being looked after by people who really seem to enjoy their work

Small yet comfortable, super modern & well located
The House of Artists is in a great location, right in the center of the historic district, within easy walking distance to top sights like the Ribeira and the Torre dos Clerigos. There are some great restaurants on the same street as the hotel, including higher ends ones and more affordable local spots. There is also a well-stocked grocery store in the corner (super convenient!). Even though there is no full-time staff at this hotel (only in the mornings for breakfast and room cleaning) the service was magnificent, we received a security code via e-mail a few nights before and we could go in and out without needing to carry around a key. Joao was there in the mornings, he served us breakfast and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. He also took time to tell us about the top sights we should visit and provide restaurant recommendations. The room was small but so are most of the other boutique hotels in the historic district since the buildings are older. Even though the room was small, everything was super new, renovated, well-lit, clean and well-designed. Loved out time in Porto and House of Artists! Would definitely go back.

Nice people and nice stay
The hotel is a new construction with just 6 guest rooms and is well located to many of the attractions of Porto. The rooms are very clean and each has the artwork of a different artist displayed in the rooms as well as there being art in the hallways and breakfast room. The bathroom was of a generous size, modern and worked well. The bedroom had a built in kitchen but the space was very tight with there being little room between the bed and cabinets so that the wardrobe doors could not open fully. there was a fan in the room but it was a little hot at night as we had to turn the fan off because it was noisy. The staff were very friendly and offered great information to help to get to know the city and what to do. The breakfast each morning offered a variety of continental offerings that were all fresh. Good fresh squeezed orange juice & the option of freshly made pancakes with fresh fruit. You have to walk up stairs to get to your rooms, no lift for those that need that. The hotel is located in a gentrifying section of town that still retains its traditional neighbors. Lots of restaurants of different types and costs around. Only challenge was finding the hotel on foot as Google Maps located in the wrong place. Easy access to the front door and rooms with the use of a numeric key pad.
