It is hard to recommend a Home, since this is more a cosy Home than a tourist hotel!|It is beautifully designed and perfectly managed.|The writing on the wall accurately states “here we don’t welcome tourists, instead we make new friends.” Without exaggeration Paula and Sara run this business as your friends or even family members.|The Hotel is easily accessible by Porto metro, since the Matosinhos Sul (Zone 3) stop is just at a 5-7 minutes walking distance if you arrive here anywhere from Porto.

Several other restaurants, beach cafes and pizzerias, grocery stores are just nearby. Breakfasts are somewhat modest, non buffet and served at your table directly. At an early check out breakfasts are delivered even to your room thanks to the courtesy of the management.|We had booked a family room, which was the largest room available there and which easily accommodated two adults and two kids in two separate rooms. The room was located on the high first floor and in reality was the second floor of the building with a balcony overlooking the street and port area. Although right on the street, we felt absolutely no noise from outside, except very little screaming of floors from upstairs and corridors of the Hotel.|Beds were comfortable, rooms modern and clean, local air-conditioning available.|Thanks to high communication skills of Paula we had all the needed information and the check-in done prior to our arrival there.|Indeed here we found friends and felt an attractive...

Read moreMatosinhos may not be the prettiest place on Earth - it’s the impressive beach, the surf, the many seafood restaurants and the proximity to Porto that makes you stop here.||||Among the grey concrete buildings only one house makes you smile and want to stay - The Harbour Inn. This little hotel is a gem!||||Please, take a look at the enclosed pictures of our room - you want to live here for weeks and months. A very nice breakfast is included and is served at the restaurant downstairs every morning from 9 to 11 AM. Parking in the street is free.||||Paula or Sara welcomes you with true warmth and makes your stay here one of these moments that you will never forget … My wife got sick during our stay, and without hesitation Paula arranged for hot soup, toast, tea, bottled water and other necessities- with a smile, with genuine concern and with the remark: Is there anything else I can do…?||||Thank you SO MUCH, Paula - you must be an angel here in your...
