Cats Hostel Porto

Beds were comfortable and clean. Great location close to the cathedral and walking distance from most other attractions. Staff at desk and in bar were super friendly. There are activities like karaoke and beer pong available for the guests. Met some really lovely people, too. Would definitely stay again!

An easy 5 star all round for what is one of the best hostels I've stayed in recently. As an older - 50 something - traveller I can be critical of the hostels I stay in. But Cats is even better than the high standards of Generator. A really top notch hostel; location is great, as well as the friendly staff. Huge shout out to Daniel on the bar!

Great place on a budget. The staff is superfriendly and rooms are nice with toilets and showers inside the rooms. They have a nice self-kitchen facility. Seem to attract very nice crowd. In the heart of Porto, very close to Cathedral and other attractions.

My trip in Porto was very nice thanks to this hostel ! Particularly to Marco, with his good recommandation for restaurant, visit and some place for party! The room is very cool and clean, the bed was confortable and the location was perfect to visit Porto by walk

Really enjoyed our stay at Cats Porto. Some of the nicest and most secure rooms I’ve seen at a hostel - new, comfy, wide beds with their own individual lights and plugins; big lockable bins that tuck under the bottom bunk for everyone to have their own; and 24-hour staffing of the front desk for access and security.

Though we didn’t use it much, the kitchen was fairly big and well stocked. The building also has a bar, and a walking-pub crawl leaves from there several nights a week. Because of the pub crawl, the bar closes pretty early too - meaning a quiet night for those staying in.

Thanks Cats!

I cannot recommend this place enough! The Staff were fantastic and helpful. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable.

Says it has a rooftop bar but it wasn’t clear if it was open to the public from the street outside?

Excellent hostel to stay in the very center of Porto. The staff is very nice, helpful and modern. Mixed room are located in the same building that the reception, the building has a terrace on the roof. The private rooms are in the other building very close. We had a private room and in the June we alone in all building. There is 1 room per floor, no elevator. We had a private key for the building and for the room. (You leave a 5€ deposit in the check-in and get it back once you check-out). On the ground floor, there is a semi-equipped kitchen with some dishes and refrigerator.
Private room was clean and has everything you need: bed, air-conditioning, shower, TV, closet, hair dryer, heater, even a small stove, nice view to a quiet street and to the cathedral.
The breakfast is included in the price, it is simple but enough, you do not need more to be full. We had a late check-in after 1 am and there was no problem there since the reception works 24 hours. Also there was no problem at all to store our luggage for several hours after the check-out.
I would absolutely advice to stay there and I would definitely come back myself.

I stayed here with 15 lads on my stag do and it was perfect. The rooms and beds were clean with individual locked cabinets for personal storage. Some rooms even had double showers and toilets which made it much easier in the mornings. Also has its own bar and restaurant and roof terrace.

Would definitely recommend. Thank you to all the staff who made our stay very enjoyable.

Wonderful hostel, I only have good things to say about this place. Very comfortable, modern, fun and in a great location. Highly recommended.

The room was great. Each bed had a curtain, light, bench, PowerPoint and locker that was accessed using your individual room key. Bed was comfortable. The bathroom had two showers and two toilets which was great. The hostel was clean and modern with multiple common spaces to spread out. Staff were great too. Highly recommend.

Wow! I LOVED my stay at Tattva Design Hostel in Porto. The staff were friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable. Bunk beds very comfy, including private light and curtain. Lovely building and AMAZING BREAKFAST! Honestly the BEST hostel breakfast I've had- all the regular things like juice, coffee, tea, bread (but nice bread not crappy white sliced bread) and cereal but also PANCAKES!! eggs, fruit, cheese and ham. I had a wonderful stay and would DEFINITELY stay again!

Very trendy. Great rooftop bar to relax with a view of the old town. Would definitely recommend this place to budget travellers, young people and groups that want to meet other like minded people. Great price/quality ratio! Very friendly staff, and always eager to help you with any questions.

Amazing hostel! The price per night here is crazy low for what you get. The rooms each have bathrooms with multiple showers/toilets and each bunk has outlets and curtains. Their breakfast buffet is pretty good for hostel standards and they'll let you print out boarding passes for free. Wonderful service, value, and even location!

Great beds, they make things very private even though you're in a large dorm with personal bed fans and lights, plugs and a curtain that wraps all the way around plus lockers under your bed. You can have dinner at their little restaurant, do laundry, use computers, sit on the rooftop patio. It's great! Quite a walk down and uphill to get to the water and some other areas, but that's Porto. Wifi is good also! 10€ dinners are a bargain and a lot of fun to join!

Great hostel. Good communal areas. Good staff. Well organised bar crawl. The roof terrace on a warm and dry night is the highlight. The furniture and fittings are quite up to date and the place is kept clean and tidy.

Very nice and cozy hostel with a fair quality / price range, and a very good location, less than 5 min walking from the São Bento Station. The bedrooms have big lockers under the beds, and these have personal and private curtains. I have been in a 10-people bedroom, which had its own bathroom with 2 showers and 2 toilets. Breakfast is amazing, where you can make your own pancakes!

Truly one of the nicest hostels I've stayed in. Clean, friendly staff, comfortable beds and great breakfast. The location also deserves a 5 star rating - literally at a stone throw from all main attractions in Porto. Ideal for a short stay in town if you're on a budget!

In terms of facilities, the best hostel I've stayed at! Beds have curtains, power outlets, fans, and the free breakfast includes hot foods like pancakes, sausages, and eggs. In terms of a social environment, it was only Ok. Staff was friendly, but other guests seemed fairly reserved and there were lots of groups.

Absolutely loved my stay at Tattva Design Hostel. It's clear to see that the owners have put a lot of thought and work into the design of the place. The beds are super super comfy and i had a great night's sleep. The staff went above and beyond to make sure i had a great stay there. They were always there to give personalised recommendations when i needed them. Also, the breakfast was a great touch, especially the pancakes. All in all a great stay! Top marks, well done guys!
