Mouco Hotel, Porto
Expert reviews
“A slice of Californian cool slightly removed from the heart of Portugal’s second city. The hotel is part of a larger cultural space that includes a concert venue, and takes its music credentials seriously. Meanwhile outdoor areas, especially the saltwater pool, are a real boon of staying here in warm weather.”

All you need to know

From the moment you arrive to the second you leave, immerse yourself in a unique adventure accompanied by your personal soundtrack. M.Ou.Co. crafts vibrant days and nights that don’t necessarily kick off with a soft lullaby. Here, everyone sets their own tempo, be it for enjoyment or relaxation.
M.Ou.Co. encourages this tempo to be multicultural, fostering a sense of community and igniting imagination. This ethos is woven throughout the 62 rooms engineered for music aficionados or those in search of a novel hotel experience. M.Ou.Co. guarantees splendid days and remarkable nights for all, as guests discover that a hotel is much more than its component parts.

Wonderful staff
Super friendly staff, nice bar with good selection of bar food. Easy trip with Uber or public transport to the main sights.
Not much but it would have been nicer for us as a group if the bar would stay open a bit longer :-).

Friendly staff and nice facilities
Nice location. Very friendly and helpfull staff. The room had a good size The swimming pool is not too big, but good enough for chilling
The lighting in the room is a bit complicated and either too much or not enough. Also, if you dont like concrete like finishings, it can be a bit annoying that walls, ceilings and floors are grey color

Design
The architecture design is so beautiful, the pool is a great addition and the room is very comfortable. The whole idea of the hotel is very innovative. 100% recommended
The prices of the bar a little expensive.

Very cool hotel, great staff, nice bar and food. Would stay again!
Amazing hotel, the design and style was very beautiful and cool. The pool was small but nice and had a nice little grassy area around it to chill in. The vinyl library was really cool and the drinks and food in the bar was great and a good price. A short walk from town or a couple euro in a taxi.
The shower door didn’t close properly but other than that it was perfect

Perfect contemporary stay, with exceptional service and great facilities for the family of four!
Perfect contemporary hotel, service was exceptional, great facilities (pool, bar/restaurant), personalised choice for music (vinyls). With some rooms with with kitchenettes, it’s perfect for families. Architecture, interior design, the gardens and the clam atmosphere makes the whole experience very pleasant and relaxing. We had a great rest!
The breakfast has somewhat limited choice for food (no smoked salmon, and scrambled eggs were somewhat lacking!), we had to change rooms as there was a strange smell in the bathroom - however staff were very swift to help us, and moved us to another room which was perfect. The area hotel is in is close enough to walk to the centre, or take an inexpensive taxi. However, the streets nearby are slightly unpleasant (we did not experience any issues, but we were always walking the four of us)

Brilliant - will absolutely stay here again
The concept is absolutely brilliant, and the style is awesome. I absolutely loved the ability to check out records to take to my room. The staff were super nice and helpful
The climate controls were a bit overly sophisticated (complicated) for their own good, but no worries. Just takes a minute to get going

Very pleasant stay! I would stay again.
The hotel has a modern architectural style, with nice little perks, as natural materials (wood, leather, stone). Rooms are very large and well air-conditioned. Little garden is fabulous! Swimming pool is small but comfy. Hotel restaurant has nice variety of meals including vegetarian ones. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Location is not great. Bathrooms are not well designed - simple lack of towels hooks and furniture.

Not your normal generic hotel…
Wow. The architecture is not like any other hotel. The artistic vibe is palpable. Great bar, nice pool overlooking Porto. Listening to Al Green and John Coltrain on my in room record player was wonderful.

Excellent high recommend, will come back x
Amazing beautiful, very friendly and fun staff. The design atheistic was stunning, also great ‘record library’ do not miss!
A full length mirror in the room, inside the wardrobe perhaps to keep the beautiful style of the room. Also appreciate that lovely coffee is available from the bar but not in the room and sometimes you need a coffee before you face the world!

Great place in quiet, non touristy neighborhood
Architecture, design, music, pool, food, drinks, atmosphere, location, walking distance to everything
Would love counter space in bathroom, more hooks to hang towels, etc

Great place to stay in Porto
Very cool & modern hotel. Very attentive staff. Excellent breakfast
Fine for us but some will find the location a bit too far (25 mins walk) from the main tourist areas

A chic way to experience Porto
Architecture, style, cleanliness, amazing helpful staff, nice food
sometimes the music was too much/could be calmer, but our room was also close to the bar

We enjoyed our stay at the Mouco. Great & friendly staff, nice and clean room and a small but pretty pool area.

Concept-focused, eco-friendly hotel.
I really loved the music-related concept. Such a cool experience. All the staff I met were super kind and friendly. (They tried to write my name in my language on the key cover, which was so sweet.) The minimalistic design is also beautiful.
Like other people mentioned, it would be much nicer if there were a wider range of music and records. Also, I think there should be more shelves or a hook in the bathroom. Kind of embarrassed at first because there was nowhere to put my clothes to change.

Disconnect and enjoy
Beautiful modern buildings. Very cool materials. Good vibes and very cool staffs Outside from the crowd of Porto in a cool area

Fabulous
The rooms were big, the space and architecture was beautiful, and the concept of the record player is great!
The bar needs to be more efficient and have attention to detail. We waited too much for a cup of coffee and tea, and one of the cups was cracked and the other was dirty.

Beautiful design hotel
Beautiful hotel, nice pool, comfortable room, good vibes!
Paying extra for parking in a garage with very narrow ramps and without direct access to the hotel. Our sound system wasn’t working properly 😞

Very great!
This hotel is really aesthetic. The concept is well realized. When you stay there, you don't wanna leave. The pool area is great, you can order a drink at the bar/restaurant and chill outside. There is great music everywhere, which makes the stay even more enjoyable. I really loved staying there.
The room itself was a bit dark.

Comfortable and stylish stay in Porto
Loved the overall vibe of the hotel, very nice look and feel and very comfortable. It was at a good walking distance from the center so we walked a lot. Staff was always super friendly and the room was nice, too :)
