A top quality hotel in Porto
Travelled on 07/2025
This is one of the nicest hotels weve stayed in. The standard of everything at the hotel is very high. We were greeted with a welcome drink while reception sorted out our check-in. The rooms were great. Huge beds and a nice bathroom. Breakfast was plentiful and good quality with great views from the dining room. Rogèrio (from guest relations) was excellent. He made sure our stay was comfortable and went the extra mi...

Wonderful stay
Travelled on 07/2025

We missed our reservation elsewher...

Beautiful hotel and amazing customer service.

Incredible
Travelled on 07/2025
Absolutely unbelievable! We have NEVER had better service at any hotel anywhere and we have been to many!
From the moment you arrive, the staff is waiting to make you comfortable.
The breakfast buffet was gorgeous and way more than youd usually see/get.
Rooms were clean and decently sized. Loved the overall decor....
