Outside, only a small marking on the door gives any indication of what awaits inside: a 19th century building upgraded with modern luxury features in a fresh space that truly respects its past. Once inside, next to the tiny reception, guests and visitors can buy goods from the specialty store that sells Portuguese wines, gourmet products and a selection of design books, while further inside there is also a coffee shop and restaurant as well as an outdoor patio and garden area where ROSA ET AL’s special Bazaar Brunch is served, based on organic, locally-sourced fresh ingredients and home-made dishes.

Homey and unconventional, ROSA ET AL consists of just 6 spacious veranda suites where original wooden beams, plasterwork ceilings and preserved architectural details are combined harmoniously with mid-century furniture by design legends of the likes of Jean Prouvé, Hans Wegner, and Charles and Ray Eames. Set against a backdrop of natural materials, wooden floors and white walls, the perfect canvas is provided for the different decades of interior design that blends together vintage, modern and contemporary details. 

{Yatzer Tip} This summer, ROSA ET AL is expanding with two additional accommodation options. Guests will soon be able to stay at the Garden Pavillion, ideal for those who want to be close to nature, or the Serviced Loft, a bright, one-bedroom modern apartment right in the heart of Porto’s historical centre.
