This hotel is one of the best stays!
The rooms are clean and they are cleaned early in the day so if you want to come back after lunch, you have a tidy room.
The breakfast is excellent! Lots of choices and great coffee!
The staff as well weee super helpful and nice.
Highly recommend this hotel!
We had one of the best experiences at this hotel in Porto, we had a river facing room, free wine welcome wine a plus. ,Their breakfast buffet is spectacular too, wine, fruits and cheese spread inside their wine room and of course wine and Bloody Mary is included, staff are very helpful, can’t sing them enough praise. Will definitely stay again
Located in the heart of Porto by the river, this place is very nice and convenient. Using historic buildings that are well equipped inside. The view from the room was spectacular, especially at night.
A lovely hotel in an amazing location. Our room was facing the river and the bridge, a spectacular view to wake up to! Also facing the square to experience the street music every night!
The staff is friendly and helpful, a call out to Hugo and Olivier for their attentiveness and great customer service!
Overall a very pleasant stay! Would recommend the hotel for its location, friendly staff and quality breakfast!
Loved the location at the Rio Douro! Lots of options for drinks/dining, shopping and walking thru the neighborhoods of the city. The hotel was nice with sitting areas to meet with others in our group and the staff was very friendly and polite. I would definitely stay there again.
Hotel is in the best location in Porto for walking around the Ribeira district, restaurants, and quality ‘Mase in Portugal’ shops as well as the normal touristy shops
Staff and breakfast was wonderful! My husband celebrated his birthday and was given a birthday cake at breakfast!
The hotel is located right along the river! So beautiful!
