Beautiful rooms

Stayed here for 3 nights with my family of 5 (kids age 10, 9, and 7). Stayed in 2 rooms, no adjoining rooms available but stayed across the hall from each other. Overall a nice hotel, loved the rooms. Right in the center of shopping and close to many walkable restaurants. We even walked down to the Ribiera. Would stay here again.

Wonderful hotel, feels very grand and beautiful! Good location, easy to walk everywhere but also near a metro. The staff were all really lovely, especially the breakfast staff! Room was nice and big and the aircon was lovely and quiet. Breakfast was good, coffee was simple machine so not the best but altogether nice! Roof terrace was lovely in the evening. 24 hour desk Amazing place would definitely stay again.

Great hotel

Excellent situation in middle of shopping zone with loads of restaurants nearby. The decor in hotel is superb. Only downside is 1.5 euros for a coffee pod. Take your own nespressos.

Great location. Shockingly quiet room. The full breakfast was a great beginning to each day. We were a little confused about parking, but the Caterina Market garage is literally a block up in the same street and wasn’t expensive. Everyone was so nice. The hotel is beautiful. I’d stay here again. Only issue was the bed was very firm but it wasn’t as big a deal as I had anticipated. And being by Bolhão market was a giant bonus.

Excellent location, disappointing room.

We received a warm welcome and efficient check-in. All members of staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean. Although the bed was comfortable it was on a mezzanine reached by a spiral staircase. This was quite dangerous in our opinion and difficult to negotiate during the night or when carrying anything, however small. It was annoying that coffee and water were chargeable - did not use. Apart from a 10% discount on restaurant (did not use) no VIP service. Did not receive free bottle of wine advertised when we booked. Excellent location but would not return.

A classic, old but very well kept Hôtel. Located right in the shopping district, market and with multiple eating options in the immediate area. The best of the trip. Mis-rated as 3 star in my opinion.

Great property and staff. Staff was very attentive and ordered a taxi for 4:30am. Location was excellent for walking and access to restaurants. Is a unique property and they keep the decor like you are in the 1950s. The only reason for four stars instead of five is that the breakfast, although a decent one, was the same every day. If you stay for multiple days this becomes a bore.

Great convenient hotel located in the heart of Oporto. It is very close to São Bento Station and you can walk to many places from there. Our room was very nice, comfortable beds, nice bathroom. The shower was being weird with the water temperature, and the hotel can be quite noisy if you are in the first floors. Breakfast is amazing. Very good food options, quality, and great coffee. Overall, an excellent deal for a budget friendly stay.
