What a lovely experience! We only stayed on night in Porto, but this property was outstanding! Such friendly and incredible staff, and they brought up our breakfast in the morning. It was so lovely to have breakfast and watch Porto wake up. Night was lively outside the windows- just what we wanted! I highly recommend this hotel, we will be coming back.

The staff, breakfast and location made this a top rating for us. Breakfast was the best we’ve had on our trip - so much beautiful fresh fruit and juices, cooked to order eggs, breads and pastries …. Luís at the front was so helpful, providing us with his personal walking map of the city. He provided restaurant recommendations, helped with transportation and called the restaurant to let them know we were going to be late. We would definitely stay here again.
