Location is great and the most fabulous pub outside the front door. Bed was huge!! Need one of those at home. The lady on reception called Jessica is clearly very proud of Porto as the information on check in was great

Check-in (on-site) was quick and easy. There was an electronic self check-in that could be fine remotely, but I abandoned that after a few minutes as being a faff. Access to the secure car park beneath with our motorcycle was also easy, and there was a dedicated motorcycle area. The hotel really is quite funky. It's only a few years old and clean and modern. The fixtures and fittings are good with excellent linen and towelling. There is a TV in the rooms but curiously you can't watch TV on it, it functions purely as a screen you can cast to if you've brought suitable tec to do this with. Our room was very quiet with good sound insulation, but it was at the rear of the hotel. Outside the front of the hotel, it does get very noisy at night. If silence is your thing, make sure you ask for a room at the rear. The breakfast, if you book it for your entire stay, is good value for money, but... see below. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Their English is good, which was invaluable with our virtually non-existant Portuguese. All in all, it's a very good international hotel.

The hotel is very central, although a little difficult to locate. The surprise was the car park underneath the hotel. Very convenient indeed. The area around is bustling with bars and restaurants. The room (207) was not large with few places to put things, but very clean and rather quirky. The staff were very kind and helpful. Reasonable price. Passing through so didn't try the facilities nor dine there so I cannot comment.

One of the coolest hotels we have stayed in. The hotel was located in a very popular area with many restaurants and bars nearby, but also a short walk to all the major attractions. The hotel itself had a very cool vibe throughout. The rooms were very clean!! The bathroom was great - the best shower pressure! The beds and pillows were also very comfortable and our room had a cute little balcony that allowed us to open the door for some fresh air and opportunity to take on the atmosphere in the busy street below. The hotel staff were very helpful and answered all our questions, as well as organising a private transfer back to the airport.

Breakfast was great with a wide selection of fresh options. Eggs, bacon, cooked mushrooms, tomatoes, yogurt, cereal, granola, many breads and pastries, fruit, cheeses, ham, Nutella, honey, fresh juices, coffee (with machine to make proper cappuccino and lattes. The vibe in the hotel was unique and chill staff was so friendly and helpful. Room had plenty of space. We had the family room which was two connected rooms with one having a king and the other with two twins and a portion of the hall privately separated that made it like a foyer. This was an amazing space for our family of 4. The location is great! In the center of Porto with close walking to everything!

First of all, we felt really welcomed: such small details as a glass of porto during the check-in or a tote bag on the bed really add to the positive experience. Location was amazing: central, there were stops of public transport quite nearby as well as lots of nice places to eat and drink around the property. The room was quite big with a modern interior. Even though our window was to the side of the busy street, we did not hear any disrupting noises at night. Breakfast was great: a wide selection of both hot and cold dishes as well as variety of pastries.

comfortable room, very clean and quiet at night. Breakfast buffet was good and a nice touch to have free coffee and cake late afternoon after a hard days sightseeing. The staff were very friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English. A brief welcome meeting to show us the sights was very helpful and included a free glass of port. This is a Spanish chain of hotels and they take a theme to play with the decor. So in this “gravity” themed hotel there are upside down plants and wall coverings and an ornamental pool shaped to look like a swimming pool on its side. Quirky but nicely done!

Hotel was in a great location, close to the city center but far enough away to be in a quiet area. The staff was very pleasant and helpful and recommended a great seafood restaurant. We were pleased with the room, I reserved the room with a balcony - it was nice to sit outside at night. I enjoyed the funkiness of the decor and ate in the Valentina restaurant for lunch and dinner - pizza was delicious.

The staff was outstanding and the highlight of our stay. They are SO helpful and patient. The parking lot was small, but doable. The breakfast was expansive and I'm glad we included it in our stay. The room was very spacious and had good air conditioning. The hotel was in a populated area, so it felt safe. We went to a restaurant that the front desk recommended and it was an amazing meal.
