The property was beautifully decorated and a fabulous location.
I highly recommend although if you want a spacious room ensure you request not to be in room 5.. it’s in the eves and not for anyone over 6ft..
That wouldn’t deter us from going back and recommending this gem of a hotel.

I absolutely LOVED my stay at Harbour Inn! I wish I could have stayed longer. Sara and Paula and the other girls working there were so welcoming, kind and friendly, and went above and beyond to care for me and endure I had a wonderful stay! They even leave fresh baked goods out every day for the guests! Unbelievable for any accommodation. The room was beautifully designed and decorated, smelled softly like fresh roses when I opened my door each day, and the bed was super comfortable. Beautiful amenities and provision of luxe soaps/shampoo etc which were appreciated after the airport disposed of mine :p I truly can’t wait to visit Porto and the Design Inn again- and will highly recommend this place to all my loved ones and people visiting Porto. I was able to easily walk everywhere I needed to, and always felt safe as a solo female traveler entering and exiting the building.

Great accommodation, very stylish and comfortable. Couldn’t get in on arrival as we didn’t receive the entry code in time, (not sure whether this was due to the hotel or hotel.com platform). Only took 10 mins to sort this out.

Sara And the property were terrific. Sara was there to greet us. She helped with check-in and calling cabs. She even left breakfast for us because our flight was leaving early. I would definitely recommend this property!

Having read the reviews I thought they were too good to be true but I was wrong.
Fantastic hosts, beautiful property, lovely rooms particularly the bathrooms. Very good breakfast.
Lots of good restaurants within five minutes walk. Easy options to get into Porto by bus or metro. Close to the airport and right on the beach.
We will certainly return.

The hotel was so quaint and quiet. The staff made check in a breeze and they were so friendly and accommodating. I would return to this hotel anytime! Absolutely loved it. My only complaint was that we couldn’t stay longer!

Great spot! Some confusion about check in time and our door not locking but was remedied. Nice clean room although we had leaking water through the ceiling from top floor. Great area and the breakfast was top notch!

I spent a couple of days with my niece in the Harbour Inn. The breakfast which was served at the restaurant downstairs was good. Sara and the cleaning ladies are very polite. It was a very pleasant stay.

I had a great stay with my niece at the Harbour Inn! Sara, the manager, is very nice person!
The breakfast at the restaurant downstairs was good too. There are plenty of restaurants around and the beach is just a few steps away. I will go back!!

Cozy little room
Lovely little place close to the beach. Large beds and good facilities in general. Top floor rooms not ideal for tall people. Breakfast is served in the restaurant - be sure to check (information isn’t displayed anywhere)

Splendid location
Location couldn't be better if you are looking for a beach stay. Easy keyless system to access the property, which is very convenient when you want to carry as little as possible to the beach. Room was excellent and clean. Splendid bathroom. Great attention to details.
