Friendly clean and quiet
That we were only there one night
The location was great. The decor was a bit out dated but very clean. Breakfast was very nice. Very good value.
Great breakfast and loved the location of the hotel… also the roof top deck!
Superior Location overlooking the river flowing into the ocean and with the sunset!
Staff were very helpful. They informed me that I forgot my house key in the room and they mailed it to me. The breakfast was very good. We loved the rooftop deck and bar. Great location in Foz. Excellent garage. Room was very comfortable
More closet space or chest of drawers would have been nice
Lovely hotel - best one if my trip. Has beatiful blue tiled entry (very Portugal) and rooftop space to sit outside and view the sea and old castle. Very good breakfast with eggs, cooked sausage, and lots of pastries.
All good - no bad.
The location was excellent. Easy walk to the trolley.
The hotel itself was noisy. We got a lot ofStreet noise. We were there for 5 nights and they put us in a handicapped room. Why?I went down to reception and they didn’t much care.One night there was a loud occupant above us. I went down to reception at midnight and told them to handle it. We wanted to sleep! The receptionist called the room and no one answered so he simply said he couldn’t do anything. WHAT?I asked what his solution was and he said I needed to go up and confront the guest. WHAT!!So I did. And the noise stopped. But still, are you kidding me?
The view is fantastic. The location excellent.
The room was too small for two people. The girls at the lobby do a better job than the guy. He did not like to be (bother ) asked for anything. His answers very short and sometimes with an attitude.
Large room with a great shower. Close to public transport and the beach.
Bed was a bit too firm for me.
Location is excellent & just off the beach but close enough to the city. Room was very comfortable & check in nice & easy.Bar & pool open until 01:00
Nothing to report as I have stayed here many times & the service & quality is consistant.
Beautiful historic location, great terrace overlooking the ocean, kind and welcoming staff.
Great location. Friendly staff, immaculate rooms. Loved the roof top area.
The location is perfect for the coast! Beautiful Panoramic views from the rooftop… Perfect for sunsets. Pool & cafe also on the roof. Close to the beaches, cafes, pub & grocery. Room had a retro feel, was clean & sufficient, good AC. Night staff was friendly.
Bed was old, hard & uncomfortable. Could hear neighbors every time they opened & closed doors.
This is one of the very best hotels in Porto - right by the sea, close to restaurants, yet in a quiet neighborhood. It is an absolute treasure of a hotel. The pool, seating area and views of the ocean are an absolute blessing. Breakfast was wonderful, the staff could not be more helpful, and our room, though modest was so comfortable and clean.
Location close to the beach was amazing. Lovely breakfast with delicious coffee. Lots of good food choices. Liked make up mirror in bathroom. Rain shower head weak water spray but water wand worked well.
Walls are thin so can hear neighbors.
very friendly and helpful staff, great location, easy connection to conference centre (bus 500 along the river, also doing downtown bridge).
Location. Helpful staff. Great breakfast. AC
Nothing really
Clean and good location
Bad unhelpful staff
Excellent location and staff very friendly
Would have liked more fresh fruit at breakfast ie grapes,strawberries
The hotel was beautiful and the location was good..
The staff, specifically the blonde woman at the front desk did not like Americans and she was super rude to my family on numerous occasions. In addition our rental car was vandalized and robbed while parked in front of the hotel.
