to get started.

The location is great- close to the train station that you could walk to the hotel from it. Near the water too. The hotel was clean, and the staff very accommodating.

Terriek, United States of America

We loved this property in Porto. It was a hidden gem. It's located in the heart of Porto, walking distance to the Douro River and some fantastic restaurants. The rooms are large by European standards, and the breakfast is delicious! We will definitely be recommending this place to our friends and family.

Ashton, France

Lovely room and decor. Really comfortable bed and pillows. Superb location. Great breakfast!!! Most of the staff were really friendly and helpful. Only check in was a bit unhelpful.

Location was wonderful. We returned after two days down the River from Pinhao to the hotel. They were able to store our luggage while we were gone and placed it in our room when we returned. Breakfast was plentiful and available until 10:30.

Porto's old town is full of crumbling pastel-colored houses. It's peaceful and relatively untouched – despite being designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it's still off most tourists' radars.
