The historic manor house CASA CAMÉLIA is situated in the heart of Porto, only a short walk from the river Douro and Porto’s main sights, bars and restaurants. The house dates back to the 18th century and has been a place of significant importance to the city ever since. Behind the house, hidden from the street, lies a romantic and vast private garden with a small forest of beautiful Camélia trees. The name of the house is not only in honour of these amazing flowering trees but also to the city of Porto, which is also called “The city of Camélias”. In 2020, the house and its garden have been completely renovated and opened in autumn 2021 to welcome guests from around the world.

The house is located in Rua da Bandeirinha 26 at the border of the historic city center of Porto, in the district of Miragaia. Miragaia is a very good and quiet neighbourhood with local residents and the Rua da Bandeirinha is a narrow one way street with only few traffic. The property is on the hillside, overlooking the Douro river. All the main tourist attractions, the river, as well as restaurants and bars, are in a walking distance of only a few minutes away. Recently, an escalator was constructed, which connects the Alfandega at the river, the Ribeira and the Rua do Monte dos Judeus, which is right below the property. There are bus stops and stops for the historic tram within walking distance.
