Tips / Destination

Check out these affordable places in Porto where you can get a good night’s sleep for a bargain price.

 

Hotel do Norte is one of the oldest in the city, but it was renovated around 10 years ago. It’s right next to the Bolhao Metro station and the market, well situated for bars, restaurants and attractions.

 

The Rex Hotel is another historic property housed inside a 19th-century mansion. With rooms for as little as €50 per night you can’t beat this place for a combination of atmosphere, location and price.

 

If hostels are more your thing, try Rivoli Cinema Hostel. This award-winning property has a swimming pool, games room and a huge terrace where you can hang out with other guests, and the price is great too.

 

Porto Lounge Hostel is a favorite with solo travelers thanks to a nice bar where you can meet other people easily, as well as free pub crawls and walking tours.

 

Sport Hostel is the best option for those really counting the pennies, with rooms among the cheapest in town. There are also bargain private rooms for couples, too. Cook your own meals in the kitchen and take advantage of the knowledgeable staff to plan a cheap day out.
