About

Blau 1911

Blau 1911 is a thoughtfully restored bed and breakfast in Porto's Boavista district, set back from the bustle of the historic centre. The property overlooks a private garden, and the original tiles and parquet floors give it a distinctly local character. Guests consistently praise the immaculate rooms and the personal attention from the hosts.

Mornings start with a continental breakfast served in a sunny conservatory that looks out onto the garden – a detail that comes up again and again in reviews. The location is practical for travellers: the metro is close for airport transfers, and Rotunda da Boavista Park is next door for a quiet stroll before exploring the city.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 20:00, which may be tight for late arrivals. Guests with evening flights should plan ahead.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, this property won't work – the policy is strictly no pets.
  • Located outside the historic centre — While convenient for transport and the park, the B&B is a bit removed from Porto's main tourist attractions – you'll need to walk or take the metro to reach the old town.
  • No parking on site — If you're driving, you'll need to find street parking or a nearby garage – the property doesn't list any parking facilities.
