The 15 foot high decorated ceilings and huge windows that opened wide were a delight. Very nice breezes in early June. Somewhat romantic, but not in the honeymoon sense of the word. It's definitely a European style hotel. The breakfast was the only real downside. Staff were pleasant, though many spoke no English. I would happily stay there again.

We asked for 5 separate beds, but we only got 3 double beds, so we had a bad night, before going to the airport at 4 o,clock in the morning

The place was perfectly clean, our room was new-fashioned and brand-new. Everything was perfectly fine and the staff were genuinely helpful. The location was nice, only 5 minutes walk to Praca da Republica. We appreciated a magnificent restaurant with a local menu.

Spacious and modern room with a beautifully high ceiling. It's conveniently located on the edge of the city, close to downtown where you'll find all the main attractions and plenty of nice places to eat 🏙️.

Friendly helpful staff. The grand period architecture/decor - the ceiling in our bedroom was like that in a stately home. Free on site parking (I never had a problem but the car park sometimes got full). Rooms reasonably priced. Bar prices low (although very limited selection and we never saw anyone else use it). We did not regret choosing this hotel.
Poor plumbing - pipe hammer and the wash basin was slow to drain. Bathroom design - the position of the W.C. stopped the door opening fully, restricting access. Breakfast adequate and not the worst but could have been better.

Wonderful small hotel with strong wi-fi. Good bed, clean bathroom and multi-channel television. - Perfect and magnificent location a short way from Praca da Republica. - Short walk to downtown where most of the touristy sites are and the centre of Porto.

The excellent situation close to the centre of Porto. The comfortable room at a very affordable price (breakfast included). The friendly, accommodating staff.
The continental breakfast was adequate, but not great. Unusually, for Portugal, the coffee was awful!

The staff here is friendly, the place is clean, the location is amazing, and the rooms are spacious and value for money with air conditioning.
