The receptionist was rather rude to us and his ability of speaking english was poor. In a country like Portugal that us very hot there is a need of cold water in your room and there was no fridge in the room. There was no window in the room and the room was very small. The stairs for the upper floor were over our bed so the ceiling was very low and we hurt our head many times.

The location was very good. It was clean.

No coffee maker or refrigerator. We had to ask for a hot pot and supply our own coffee or tea. No luggage rack either.

The location, once we found it.

The door to our room rattled from the draught when the window was open. Other than that everything was fine.

Location near the old town and metro. Friendly staff. Comfy beds.

On the Sunday morning I woke up twice, first at 0130 and then again at 0445, this linked to that you have to ring a doorbell after 2400 to get in, the signal / doorbell was loud and echoes through the reception area and to our room one level higher, this should be done in a different way, avoiding waking up the guest who are not out partying. The rooms are very sensitive to noise from the stairway outside, you wake up when someone gets back late.

Best location we ever had, always maximum 800m by foot to all what we wanted to see. Small room, but functional.

The location is good in terms of being close to Saõ Bento train station, Cathedral (Sé) and other sights, is really comfortable/strategic, however the street where it's located, at night can feel sketchy.

Nice tiny cozy room, very comfortable, the check-in process is very easy and staff replies effectively to any question you may have during your stay.

Great location, helpful staff, well equipped and comfortable room. Really a great place to stay while exploring Porto.

The stairs can be daunting. (Andre to the rescue!) The towels are thin and scratchy.

The property was a lovely modern surprise tucked neatly on a street that looks like it will burst with energy after the construction of the museum across the street. Inside, despite many stairs, was inviting and warm. The staff eagerly helped me with my bag. After a speedy check in, André took a full ten minutes directing us on dinner options. Our light and bright rooms were spacious with huge double glazed windows to the back. The shower was perfect. There is a heater, wall mounted tv, extra pillows and blanket. Breakfast was good. The hotel, two hilly blocks from the Sao Bento train, is in a great location for getting around.

Temperatures did drop. The heating worked well but with large windows the heat didn't stay in. There was a dripping from bath tap that wouldn't stop. Our room was fairly close to street level so could hear outside noises at night (drunk people). Breakfast was sufficient but not much for a vegetarian or vegan. Even the tongs for the cheese were set to use for sliced meats and cheese (these should be separate) The fruit wasn't topped up until 3 days later, so there was only over ripened bananas as an option most days.

Location was great, central to everything in the city It was well maintained and the rooms were comfy The guy that checked us in was nice enough to give me a kettle for the stay as it was really cold and wanted hot water for tea.

Breakfast wasn’t very good. Coffee was cold and limited amount.

The room is damp because of the weather. No elevator in the property.

The location is good, very close to many attractions and the train station.

Not big issue with accomodation, just could have a problem with a lot of stairs in the hotel. Some vegetables will be good for breakfest.

Great location. Close to Train station. Nice small hotel with very comfortable beds. Also breakfast was good. We will choose the same hotel for the future.

A bit on the small size for the room and some noisy street traffic and noise.

Great location and clean and very lovely tiles and decorations

Stayed in October 2023

Lots of stairs to get to the room which was very small. There was hardly a place to put our bags. And the breakfast, other than the espresso was marginal. Better to go out to a cafe.

It was clean, beds were good and with the windows closed no street noise. Staffed by nice young people. And it is in a great location.

The room didn't have a window. It was very compact.

The location was near the cathedral. A warm welcome was given. The room was ready and clean. Air con worked well.

Would have given a 10 but the toilet was leaking slightly. A container had been put there by the staff which I emptied each morning. Also there was a slight smell of drains and occasionally cigarette smoke. These seem a lot of issues to only deduct 1 point for and had I been in the room more they may have caused me more distress. However the location is so so good this went a long way to make up for what probably was out of the control of the owners (understand takes time to organise plumber and drains smell is not uncommon in Portugal also cigarette smoke can drift from outside).

Location - a Hilton is 30 seconds walk down the road and is rated no. 1 in Porto on Trip Advisor. I enjoyed going there for food and drinks- not expensive for a Hilton but the rooms a lot more than here. Guest House is very near the famous bridge, Cathedral and Sao Bento metro and train station (metro exit signed for historic area is nearest - there are two exits for the Sao Bento metro). Recommend National Theatre tour (just uphill from hotel). Visited Braga (lovely Cathedral) and Aveiro (canal type waterways with colourful boats) on train from Sao Bento. Recommend a tourist gets a 24 hr or 72 hr Adante metro ticket 7€ / 15€ if will use metro a lot. Ticket machines for metro and train easily converted to English / other languages. Trains also inexpensive. Taxi from airport (shared fare with others met at Airport) but was only €32 total with 2 separate stops and at 11pm on a Sunday evening. Metro however is only €2 from airport. Metro very easy. Bom Successo market (Casa da Musica Metro) excellent with restaurants and bars within. Leonidas Chocolate shop nearby to there - fabulous. Also Cable Car very good - get on across road from one stop on metro after Sao Bento (first one over the bridge). Or walk over the bridge. Loved Porto! A few people commented street may seem unsafe at night. Yes, there are homeless people sheltering at night particularly in covered areas - also of the Theatre and Cathedral but there is a housing problem in Portugal. I am sure these people are not on the streets by choice. I was never bothered by anyone and came back relatively late on a night.

One of the rooms was very stuffy, the fan helped but it was noisy.

Very charming and spacious room, comfortable beds, great shower. The entire accommodation seems to be recently renovated and everything looked very new, making a nice impression. Perfect location, walkable distance to many sighseeing. It was a pity we stayed there for only one night. We would definitely stay there again on our next trip to Porto.

The rollers don’t make the room totally dark as I like. I would prefer air conditioning than fan. When you leave the windows opened, it can be very noisy

Good location, clean, good taste. The shower is very good!

It is an old building so we can hear all the noise from the street and from the corridors.

Excellent location, nice breakfast

The bathroom is very small, the wardrobe lacked the length so only shirts can be hanged. I did not mind, but the sound proofing was poor.

Guest House Triunfo is situated next to the main attractions, metro line and University, in a old, historic building. There are nice restaurants and bars close by. The room is nicely decorated and cozy, with huge windows. The WiFI was excellent. The breakfast was simple but tasty, with good coffee and Pastis de Nata every morning. The staff was very friendly and spoke excellent English.
