Pestana Porto A Brasileira

There’s so much to tell you about this five-star stay. But first, coffee. Years before becoming a hotel, the building was the first place in the city to serve a brew. Over a century later, the hotel has faithfully restored A Brasileira café to its former glory – so you can start each day with an espresso and a pastry, surrounded by the original architectural features.

The rooms also provide a nod to the past. Each one is decorated to reflect the spices and goods that were imported by the Portuguese during the 15th and 16th centuries, with themes including coffee, tea, anise, chocolate, and pink pepper. The hotel’s French patio with a natural vertical garden will catch your eye, too.

The on-site restaurant serves traditional Portuguese cuisine and a sumptuous buffet breakfast every morning. If you’d prefer to pop out for a meal, the hotel’s central location means there are lots of top-quality offerings on your doorstep. Love some local tips? The English-speaking staff will be happy to help.

Wake up and smell the coffee – this luxury stay is too good to miss.
