I absolutely LOVED my stay at Ruby Charm Houses! Miguel and Maria, the husband-and-wife owners, have created something truly special in Porto!
The building is over 350 years old, full of history and character, yet the rooms are beautifully updated, clean, modern, and comfortable. The location is fantastic—close to everything but tucked away from the busy streets, making it surprisingly quiet, peaceful, and safe.
The outdoor courtyard is an adorable hidden oasis! There are places to relax, a hot tub (€15/session), laundry-drying space, fish to feed, and even cats to hang out with!
The thoughtful extras were wonderful, including complimentary groceries upon arrival and the BEST orange juice I've ever tasted from the Algarve! They also have a convenient online system for requesting room deliveries, laundry service, and more.
But what truly made my stay unforgettable was the hospitality. Miguel personally gave me a map of Porto, circled places to visit, and offered recommendations based on MY interests rather than generic tourist attractions. He genuinely wanted me to make the most of my time there!
You can feel the love Miguel and Maria put into every detail. This isn't just somewhere to sleep; it's a memorable experience with hosts who truly care and treat you like family.
If you want history, charm, comfort, convenience, and exceptional hospitality, DON'T HESITATE! Book Ruby Charm Houses! I will absolutely be staying here again! ❤️
