great location beautiful 🤩 interior and great breakfast

Janine United Kingdom

Location of the place is perfect. Centrally located and within the beautiful train station, unique! Lovely breakfast as well.

Teresa Philippines

They were so accommodating and it was such an amazing way to experience Porto! The whole place has this high-ceiling historic charm and overlooks the center or Porto. You can walk to everything you need and meet a ton of people on the top floor. The earplugs they provide were a must for us because it gets a little loud in the area, especially if FC Porto wins, but it was our favorite place we have ever stayed…they really made our honeymoon feel special.

Alex United States of America

Lefteris Greece

Great location, staff were very friendly. Good place to hang out with other people. Well kept, decent breakfast in the morning. Though it's right next to the train station I couldn't hear the trains at night, so was able to get good rest.
