United States of AmericaThe property is beautiful and the location, normally would be great. The subway construction right in front of the hotel is a horrible impediment. we switched sides and it was quiet and very comfortable. The staff that we encountered were all delightful and eager to help. The dining room staff were very kind and warm!
United States of AmericaComfortable, well located, friendly staff, good breakfast.
BrazilThe location was excellent. The room was clean and spacious. The view was marred by the construction of the metro line but you could see how good it was going to be.
PhilippinesThe hotel had amazing service and was in a perfect central location. Also the breakfast buffet offered is worth it and amazing! Loved the service that the staff provided for an enjoyable girls trip especially the connecting rooms and egg tarts offered to us in our rooms!
United States of AmericaThe hotel is located in the heart of magical Porto with all the important streets and sites within walking distance. The staff are extremely welcoming, in particular Hugo. There is major construction in front of the hotel, which resulted in diverting the entrance, but we didn’t hear any noise and it didn’t affect our stay. The hotel room was spacious and comfortable and had all the amenities.
BahrainThe location is great! Right in the center of all of the tourist sights. The concierge was VERY helpful with directions to sights, explaining what to see, and helping us book train tickets to Lisbon.
United KingdomThe location of the hotel was on point as it is located around the main square, however there is major construction taking place as they are working on connecting an underground transportation station. The noise level was better than expected. The room was very clean and a good size! The staff was very friendly! They were helpful in giving us recommendations for good local places to go, as well as, giving us directions. They happily greeted us at every coming and going.
