I extend my sincerest hope that the Guarany becomes a popular space of downtown Porto, in this city that we love so much. This has been a meeting point for several generations, the Guarany will, I am sure, continue as the genesis of future projects of many. The Guarany is, beginning today, for me, a meeting place, a forum of freedom. Thank you for giving back to the city "our" Guarany.

The history of a city is made up of sustainable institutions, and men who know its value and transmit this to future generations ... Today we make history ... The old Guarany is back with all its great charm and in the hands of a man who realized and transmitted this to his children and friends, the real value of this property is in the history of our Porto. Congratulations my dear friend Barrias for this contribution to our city. Many congratulations and best wishes to you and all your direct collaborators on this project... Doing it this way is even nobler. A big hug.
