REPUBLICA 157 Guest House Reviews

This apartment has two rooms on one floor, a large living room, two bathrooms, and a small balcony. The decor is very homey, and there's even a gramophone, which was a nice touch. The room was very clean, and amenities were plentiful; they even gave us a small bottle of red wine. The hotel is just over a kilometer from São Bento Station, but it's almost entirely uphill (Porto is very hilly), so it's manageable if you take your time. Actually, a more reasonable plan for getting to the main attractions from the hotel is to walk downhill to the river and then take a taxi back up.

Great hotel. Very well located. We loved the cafe next to it.

Everything during my stay was perfect: • The room was immaculate, cozy, and truly felt like a home away from home. • Special thanks to the Port wine and curated guidebook greatly enriched my exploration of Porto!

About 15mins away walk from the center, room is really big and attractive, I was going to rebook for two more nights, unfortunately it’s all booked up… recommend!!

Very nice location, very clean and very easy to check in, thank you for this service

What a wonderful quirky place! Spotlessly clean, everything you need and a super comfortable bed. Lovely little coffee shop a few doors down too. Would recommend & would definitely go back.

Beautiful service apartment! I love the decor and the quiet neighborhood, there are two supermarkets right next to the house and a couple of cafes. Amazing for solo travelers or couples :)

Great place, perfect location. Spacious flat.

Wonderful apartment

Beautifully decorated home with detailed finishing touches - the photos don’t do the place justice! We got a room in front of the garden - it was great to wake up with a coffee, vinyl playing and people watch a little. The home is in a convenient and clean location - Inés was amazing and helpful every step of the way while we communicated via WhatsApp. The home has all you need to feel like a true home away from home - every detail is thought of. Could not recommend this place enough! We were so relaxed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Everything was great! Nice apartment in an old building. Placement of the apartment is great. You can easily get to all sights and cafes/restaurants. Check-in was very comfortable. We got welcome drink from owner of the apartment. It was so pleasant.

My dad and I came on a trip, and the owner was so kind and the accommodation was in such great condition that we had a very satisfying stay!! My dad said several times that this was his favorite accommodation he's ever stayed in. I don't usually write reviews, but I really had to write one here. I highly recommend it!! The room was really spacious and it was very close to Trindade Station, the biggest transfer station, so it was very convenient to get around! If I come to Porto again next time, this is a place I want to stay! There was also a cute travel route map that the owner made himself, and it was the best in many ways.

I ended up staying one more day in Porto, but the accommodation was so nice that I extended my stay for one more night. The owner contacted me quickly and was very kind, so it was great!!

The landlady was incredibly thoughtful. Even though it was hot, she was still very welcoming. The hotel is very conveniently located near the train station, with plenty of food and drinks nearby. The room overlooks a park, and the interior design is superb – it's absolutely perfect!
