HOTEL DESCRIPTION
Hotel Tipografia do Conto is a creative hideaway set in a former typography workshop in the city’s Cedofeita district. Every detail reflects its literary and artistic roots, from engraved ceilings and sculptural concrete walls to bespoke furnishings crafted by Portuguese designers. The result is a space that feels both raw and refined, where design and storytelling quietly intertwine. The hotel’s rooms are minimalist yet warm, each one telling its own story through textures, typography and light. Guests can enjoy a peaceful garden terrace, a pool and a relaxed bar that feels like an artist’s studio. Just outside, Porto’s galleries, cafés and independent shops bring the neighbourhood to life, making it a perfect base for those who love design and culture in equal measure.
A creative hideaway in Porto where words, concrete, and calm meet. Design lovers will feel right at home.

Hífen bar on the ground floor works as both hotel bar and cultural space, hosting small events, exhibitions and concerts and giving the place a local, lived-in feel
