The idea of luxury accommodation in a historic building in the very heart of Porto has become reality: we have just opened the doors of Torel 1884 Suites & Apartments where we offer you 12 deluxe rooms and Suites in our former Palace. In addition, you can choose from our 11 unique Apartments located 200 metres away, on Rua das Flores, downtown Porto's trendiest street. Our stunning Palace dates back to 1884, and we have filled it with the spirit of the Portuguese explorers: travel the world by visiting Africa, America and Asia, and discover a different exotic theme in each room – from spices and silk to coffee, tea, porcelain and tapestry. Let yourself be whisked away into the world of the Portuguese navigators as they travelled the world, discovering not only foreign lands but also exotic spices, new foods and superb materials within them. Embark on your own exotic journey and breathe in the spirit of the adventurers through our lavish materials, natural colours and exotic plants. In Bartolomeu Bistro & Wine, an intimate and elegant yet relaxed space, we offer the perfect atmosphere to linger and sip a glass of fine Portuguese wine, accompanied by samples of typical Portuguese specialities.
