For our family reunion (with dog) this ibis and its staff provided the perfect housing: parking the camper, excellent breakfast buffet with long breakfast hours, attentive staff and above the river Douro and the old fishermens' town of Afurada = for us the perfect combination!

Better than your average ibis ( which are generally good anyway) check in took quite a long time , but that was more due to difficult guests. Parking behind the hotel for a larger vehicle, evening meal was good and breakfast as well very reasonably priced and comfortable quiet room

Ibis is a decent average place to stay, nothing fancy. A bit out of the way from the Porto water for walking, but a nice view of it. Value stay for sure. if you're looking for good basic place to be, this works. One negative is the cost of food at the hotel, Breakfast was WAY overpriced.

J'ai adoré mais une chance qu'il ne faisait pas chaud parce que la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas il n'y a pas moyen de l'activer. Et ce n'est pas très bien insonorisé. Pour le service et l'accueil tout a été parfait!
