Once you navigate your way indoors, the hotel is very modern and welcoming. Unfortunately it is tucked up in behind a store and you can miss it if you're not certain where you're going. The rooms are a little small but adequate. They do not offer North American outlets so be sure to bring along your adaptor. The breakfast restaurant... More

This hotel really goes out of its way to provide 5 star service: reception and concierge were superbly friendly, and you even got a glass of port (should you so desire) when checking in. Rooms were huge: good work area, large bed, bathroom, and separate toilet. Came with numerous towels, robes, slippers, turn down service (if you like that kind... More

there are different classes of room in this hotel. the lower floors lack the extra touches such as slippers and robe, and feel just a little less well laid out. the higher rooms have fantastic views. There is an AMAZING rooftop bar. expensive for portugal, but one of the best views of the city, over to the atlantic up to... More

I have stayed in this hotel about 4 times now, all for business. Each time has been excellent, the standard is very consistent. During my last visit the Portuguese national team were also staying in the hotel which meant it was busier than normal, especially around reception. However we were still dealt with very quickly at reception and given a... More

ts clear that Europe has different standards for rating hotels. What you would consider a 4 star in the U.S. is more like a 3 star in Europe. The Porto Palacio for example is considered a 5 star yet internet is not included in the room rate. In this day and age, that is almost unheard of. They offer a... More

This is hotel is a great find and phenomenal value for money. Probably suffers a bit from its location, which is a bit out of the way, and the economic situation in Portugal, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. The location not a big issue as taxis are cheap. Rooms comfortable, spacious and clean, a luxury hotel at budget... More

This was our first visit to Porto, Portugal and after reading several hotel reviews we decided not to stay in the "old" fashion hotels at Downtown but in a more modern hotel with all facilities and a fresh smell. This hotel is very well communicated and you can go easily downtown Porto by local transport ( 1.80 Euros) or taxi... More

This hotel claims to be one of the 'Leading Hotels of the World'. Don't know how it managed that. It also claims to be 5 star hotel but by European standards it would be classed as a 4 star. We found that the star rating in Portugal was not equivalent to UK ratings. The room was adequate and had double... More
