“Housed in a meticulously restored historic mansion, this literary-themed hotel appeals to those seeking both luxury and culture in Porto. The celebration of Portuguese writers extends beyond the uniquely designed rooms to engaging literary events. I was particularly drawn to the dining experience at BLIND, the on-site MICHELIN Star restaurant, and the serene wellness facilities which promise a relaxing retreat.”
