The hotel was a fantastic place to stay whilst in Porto. The room was very spacious and beautifully decorated. The room over looked the courtyard and was very quiet.
The staff were all so friendly and knowledgeable about the area, giving us some excellent recommendations and advice.
Breakfast was included and was lovely.
I would highly recommend this hotel.

The location was amazing. The staff were so helpful and charming. Our room was perfect and the maid service was wonderful. The breakfast was the best we’ve ever had in a hotel. We just had a really special time

A great place to stay when visiting Porto! The staff were very helpful from check in to check out, the hotel is very located when going around the city and overall great value for money.
Would definitely stay here again the next time I come to Porto!

This is a great apartment, ideally located for visiting Porto. The owner was very helpful and responsive. Our group had a wonderful time, would 100% recommend!

A delightful place and a faultless stay. This is a beautifully-designed property in an excellent, central (but quiet) location with kind and charming owners and staff. Will certainly return. Highly recommended.

The hotel has a spectacular position overlooking the river and historical centre of Porto. Service was excellent and not overbearing. Breakfast and dining generally were high quality. The outside pool area is lovely. You can walk down to the river direct from the hotel, where there are a lot of bars and restaurants - it is however quite a steep path, so perhaps not suitable for all. Thoroughly recommended.

We stayed in the apartment block, room 4 at the rear—really quiet, which was ideal. Situated between Sao Bento and the riverside, it's the perfect place to explore this great city.
