Yours Guesthouse

Miragaia


Squirrelled away in one of the loveliest streets of old Porto, this guesthouse has bags of originality, with antiques speckling cheerfully decorated rooms, reached by a spiral staircase – the best have fine city views. Enjoy breakfast in the walled garden when the sun’s out.
