to get started.

Everything about this hotel was excellent. We were there for my wife's birthday and the staff laid the perfect table with champagne as requested.

Ken, United Kingdom

Kind staff, excellent customer services, awesome views and facilities, I loved the SPA and the restaurant

Gladys, United States of America

Staff were extremely helpful in accommodating our requests of double bed quality and view from the room

Adriaan, United States of America

Good range of things on the buffet, but can't say they were particularly great. Eggs were a bit rubbery. Still, nice having the choices.

Anonymous, United States of America

Everything, close to centre of aveiro within walking distance to restaurants and some sites.

Maria, Australia

The under ground garage perfect for the motor bike. The location was perfect. Lots to see and do. Lots of beautiful places to eat We will definitely be going back.

We loved it all and will return. We loved the location - pretty much on the canal - we loved the pool and jacuzzi and the breakfast was great too! The staff were very good This was recommended to us by friends and we were delighted My name is Caroline

Carolone, United Kingdom

Berian, United Kingdom

New hotel with friendly staff and close to center of town.

Rosa, United States of America

Hotel is nicely situated at the top of one of the canals. You can join a boat tour of the canals from a dock just opposite the hotel which costs 10 euros, or you can take a ten minute walk to the centre of Aveiro and get a boat there. The boat tour is interesting and takes about 45 minutes. Free car parking is available just across the road from the hotel, or in a basement car park for which there is a charge of 6 euros per night. Good breakfast and a nice spa area make this a great choice for a stay in Aveiro.

Our room was of a reasonable size but would have benefited from some maintenance- chipped floor tiles The very novel bath/shower mixer was let down by a broken hand wand rail clamp that resulted in the bathroom getting totally soaked. Biggest niggle - there’s a kettle in the room and tea bags but the hotel doesn’t supply coffee sachets or milk blisters - really strange
The hotel is in a great location- public areas are pristine- room was spotless

The electrical system in the room was very cumbersome. There were tons of switches and when you turned one on, it seems like something else turned off. Very confusing. And 1 bedside lamp did not work so we had to move the desk lamp over to the bedside table. That whole process created more stress than we would have wanted.
New hotel with friendly staff and close to center of town.
