Thought it was very good valve for money. It is very comfortable and quiet. Lots to eat at breakfast and the ladies who attended to us were so nice and nothing too much bother, We also met the owner who spoke passionately about Porto and the Douro river. Also free port wine on arrival!
From the front door you have a few steps to climb. The property does say there is only a lift to take suitcases to the appropriate floor but there are a number of steps to climb before you get to reception but it wasn’t a problem for us and I’m sure staff would help if required

You wouldnt know its a hotel from looking outside as there is no sign outside, you will have to go by the address as its beside a store. The hotel is through the narrow steps to the second to the 5th floor. The lounge is very pretty, and styled very nicely. The breakfast is very good, you get many choices. The staff are very nice and helpful. Its right across from Porto Fresh Market and the train station is only 10 mins walk and major sites including to walking to river is only 20 minute away. The famous McDonalds is around the corner.. so its very good central location.
We had our room on the top floor (3rd or 5th floor) and its a lot of stairs to climb. The rooms are small, the washrooms are clean but very small. Could use some hooks, as we traveled for Camino and hanging washed clothes was difficult. They could use shelving as there was 0 cabinets and tricky to unpack and pack things without cabinets to store things.

Fabulous location, so central and a 2 minute walk to/ from metro. A wonderful market directly opposite and so many shops, restaurants and cafes literally on the doorstep. The room was spacious and well appointed. Loved the shutters, they kept the room dark at night and cool in the day. Comfortable beds and excellent air con. A nice spacious bathroom. The large safe kept our passports and electricals safe during the day. Breakfast was very good. Great selection of food to suit all tastes- Carla, Carol and Soraia kept the breakfast table well stocked and replenished - a lot of the food was homemade on the premises. Their cheery “good mornings” set us up for the day. All the staff were so welcoming, friendly and keen to share ideas of places to visit in their beautiful city of Porto. Artur on reception was especially knowledgeable, welcoming and friendly. We have recommended this wonderful B&B to many already!
Our “city view” (listed in the room details) from the bedroom was disappointing- a metal fire escape! Still it didn’t spoil the stay in anyway.

This was our third stay at B the Guest, and as always, everything was excellent. Tiago checked us in and we had a great chat. All staff members are so friendly and helpful, and this lovely boutique hotel is beautiful. It’s in a fantastic location right across from the Bolhao market (not to mention Mantegeiria for freshly made Pasteis de Nata). Our room was on the first floor and was very spacious. I love the little things they have thought of. There’s a spacious table with a comfortable chair for laptop work. And the vanity in the bathroom spans the width of the room, so lots of space to keep your toiletries, towels etc. The beds were super comfortable and our room had a nice little balcony if you wanted to step out for air. The breakfast buffet is lovely, and the women who work there are friendly and helpful. Sariah, Carla and coworkers were awesome! We sat in the gorgeous lounge last night for a glass of port. It’s such a beautiful room. We will hopefully return again next year to Porto and we will of course stay at B the Guest.
The only issue to note for others is that there are stairs involved. Not a problem for us, but this would not be the place for people with mobility issues. Also a minor suggestion for staff but a plug extension on either of the bed side tables would be great so you could plug the lamp and phone charger into the same outlet. Wasn’t a big deal as we made due.

Beautifully furnished excellent location. Amenities were excellent from breakfast , room detail and extra’s, books, hair dryer, fresh water .. Air conditioned and no noise level even though we were front room. Missed breakfast on our last day due to early checkout and a take out breakfast was put in our room the evening before. Very thoughtful and appreciated. Staff were very helpful and positive - excellent check in great communication from booking to checking in!

Excellent buffet breakfast which was topped up constantly, plenty of fresh fruit, cakes and bread. A waitress would come round asking if you wanted to try some different produce from the kitchen e.g. mini pancakes, cakes, chicken bites. Superb location for the brilliant main market, across the road to gates. Many very good restaurants, bars, bakeries and delis near by. The room was spacious, clean and all basic amenities included (safe, TV, hairdryer, washing products, mini bar etc). The bar/lounge area was superbly decorated. When we arrived we were met by Sofia who was very welcoming and gave us many recommendations of places to visit and places to eat. We were given complimentary glass of port and local green wine. all staff were extremely helpful. The hotel also arranged our airport transfers.

Location is fantastic. Central to everything. Staff are attentive and thoughtful. The decor is elegant and homey at the same time. The lounge feels like a personal living room, not a hotel lobby. Bedroom was furnished with a beautiful and hugely comfortable reading chair and a vintage style radio set to play classical music when you entered the room. Very thoughtful touches and much appreciated ,
There are a lot of stairs as this is a heritage building. But, if able,it is good exercise. Staff deal with your luggage if required.

A very nice place to stay in a central location, some 10 minutes walk downhill to the main sites such as Ribeira and the Douro river. It’s also 5 minutes from the main Sao Bento railway station. A particular plus here is the closeness to the lovely food market opposite and Metro within it. Really as central as you’d want. We liked the in-house bar - very classy looking and exclusive to guests. We had a very quiet and comfortable room, you’d never know there is so much going on outside. It looks like they’ve added soundproofing panels built into the design. Thank you to Arthur and Sophia for their very helpful advice and service. Highly recommended.

There is nothing about this small boutique hotel that we did not love! What a surprise to find this place which had such quirky decor, a lovely living room to relax in, and extremely helpful staff/owners who really seem to care about the place. Choose the breakfast - a wonderful array of pastries, yogurt, cheese, eggs, cereal and fruit. The location is perfect. You are right across the street from the large outdoor market. We ate dinner there many times, and next door there is an amazing bakery. Our room was HUGE! Everyone was so nice, I especially want to thank Soraea who always had a smile on her face. They go the extra mile here. We were even packed a "to-go" bag for our very early morning flight when we checked out.

great location; lovely facility. staff was friendly and so helpful. welcome cake and glass of port was lovely as well as the map and orientation to the city.
Small hotel…hard to find; only a door with the name on it, across from the big market. we saw the picture of the market on the website and thought that was the hotel so we went there first before finally finding the door to the building across the street.
