We stayed on the 7th floor overlooking the riverfront. Spectacular location. So many restaurants and outdoor cafes right there. Busy, but not too crowded in early June. Lots of night life. Friendly staff.

Silvia Uruguay

We loved everything about this hotel. We made the reservation here because of the location, which couldn't be beat, but were so impressed by the attentive, friendly staff, and the little touches such as a glass of port úpon arrival, macaroons in the room, chocolates on the pillows, a breakfast that was incredible. We miss this beautiful hotel!

Mary United States of America

The location, the staff and the super comfy bed in a very quiet room. It is hopping busy all around the Ribeira area, which is super fun, but our room was as quiet as could be which we appreciated as we needed to catch up on sleep after arriving that day from the US
