Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Lovely quirky boutique hotel right by the River Doura and in the middle of all of the restaurants and liveliness that area holds. Good continental breakfast included. Short walk via the lower bridge to visit Gaia and the wine cellars on the opposite side of the river. Perfect spot for our 5 day trip. Only drawback was lack of view from our room and some noise from the hotel and restaurants below.

Really like this hotel and the staff are great. Room is lovely. Only issue is driving during the busy summer season in Porto is brutal and finding parking was challenging. If you are without a car, this place is perfect, on a walking street by all attractions and tons of restaurants. But hotel is fantastic

Centrally located boutique hotel in downtown Porto. Just a few meters from the Douro River and tourist restaurants. Only downside is it is quite noisy in the evenings. Clean & modern. Highly recommended.
