This hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Porto, and an easy walking distance to all the major sights. Check-in was a breeze, the staff were incredibly accommodating, and the room was spotless and exactly as described. Valentina’s, the hotel restaurant, serves fantastic pasta and has some of the friendliest servers I met on the trip. I’d happily stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Porto.

Good but was better 12m ago. The coffee at breakfast is pretty bad out of the machine (top tip if you want an americano, don't press americano because that's instant coffee and awful, hit 2x espresso then fill with water then it's bean 2 cup). Great location and lovely staff, but missed the little treats from 12m ago.

Lovely staff / great location

Great Boutique hotel - Super friendly lovely staff / excellent location, comfortable bed. A great Bar right next to the hotel. Can be noisy but that didn’t bother us and the windows are double / tripple glas and you don’t hear much if they are closed. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
