Staff was very helpful and breakfast was great, when the items are available!

Car park its a nightmare!! In front was never a space, at back the cameras was not working, so they are not aware that you are at back gate to go in ou out of the car park!! You have to go on reception tell them that they need to open the gate, and on Saturday and Sunday no space's at back for our car, its a NO!! On Synday was too many people for breakfast, so most of the food was not available at that time. And the room, could be bigger, i felt a bit clostrofóbic with suh a small room!

Staff all good, parking good, Breakfast good, free shuttle downtown

2 day stay, one day of which we had toilet issue and not fixed properly until next day, location of toilet paper roll wasn't the best. We were in main building and no elevator to 2nd floor, luggage carried up by staff which was great but we carried down

Hotel was lovely, staff were helpful and friendly. Rooms clean and comfortable Breakfast was good New pool area will be great when completed

There were extensive building works being carried out at the back of the hotel to build a new swimming pool area ( which we were not made aware of either by the hotel or booking.com) they started early and it meant using the current pool was not relaxing as it surrounded by builders drilling, welding and dust. Our room was also up a set of stairs which had a light using a sensor - it was not sensitive enough and i fell on the stairs as it was too dark to navigate safely.

Overall it was a good stay other than what’s above.

The breakfast was good. The bedding covers were comfortable. The staff came to the room to help us with the A/C.

There wasn’t enough lighting in the bathroom. The room should have been cool once we got in. The hotel didn’t have ample parking.

Cleanliness

The room / property is in desperate need of an update / refresh. We were also disappointed that the complimentary city shuttle that was promoted with signage out front wasn’t operating as “the driver was on vacation,” & no options given on how to get to Porto. We were basically on our own to figure it out.

Nice friendly hotel

Very comfortable bed. Bathroom facilities were clean. Staff were very friendly. Bar and breakfast were very good.

We were up graded to a suite which was nice however on down side we were not told of the flight of stairs and another in the room to the bedroom/ suite which were very steep. It would have been nice to have been informed and help offered with bags.. We had struggle getting bags to room…. We could have asked for help but managed ourselves. We had difficulty getting the air conditioning to work. The mini bar was empty but we did have water and coffee/ tea facilities.

- fair Price for parking inside

- fair Price for parking inside - close to the city (15-20 minutes walk)

- really noisy hotel without any soundproof at all!! (We could hear the guests in the other room talking with each other, not screaming, talking!!) - no selection of different pillows. There were two of them for each side, but both very very big and hard

Nice hotel, good amenities.

The rooms are nice and were immaculately cleaned. Very good pressure showers, which for me is essential

The pool is really just a plunge pool. The restaurant seems to push their buffet even though they have a la carte menu as well. In saying that, the food was always good.

Enjoyed comfortable stay a short walk to downtown Porto and main sights in the city.

Good stay a nice newer hotel, with convenient shuttles and mini shuttle road train to town center in Porto. We walked most of the time to and from Porto center and bridge. Comfortable and quiet, good breakfast. I would stay there again. Free parking on the street if available.

Only one small thing: I forgot to mention to staff but the pillows were quite thick and stiff, all of them about the same. No other selection. I suggest having 2 soft ones as well for each double bed.

Interesting design, very clean and new, helpful stuff, quiet location, no shelves, bad restaurant

The hotel is new and very unusual in design. At first you fill like in a Renaissance refuge. You need to spend some time just to walk around it as it looks like a small village with secret nooks and passages. There are two floors in each building and everything is automated. TV is a part of a large mirror which adds a new world strike to otherwise Lui XVI style of rooms. It is located in a very quiet place, away from Porto or even from the Vila Nova De Gaia tourist center. However, the free shuttle running every 30 min (from morning until 16:20) to the Porto historic center solves the issue. Taxi is 5 - 7 euro to get there or back. You may also walk for 20-25 minutes to get to Ribeira part of Porto. Car parking is in the hotel inner yard. Rooms are very clean, the cleaning is always during the most convenient time for guests. The soundproofing is excellent. There are different places to sit outside in the inner yards of the hotel and take a rest. There are a lot of additional services provided and the front desk personnel goes above and beyond to help. Breakfast is good. The toiletries in the bathroom are very good. The airport shuttle is very convenient and fast.

The bed is comfy but the pillows are pushed into such undersized pillowcases that they fill like stone. The rooms are small, but the real issue is a total absence of shelves or drawers in the room, even in the wardrobe. And the wardrobe is large enough to hang clothes and to house shelves, drawers, mini-fridge and safe. The latter two are also missing, there is not even front desk safe. Large people will not fit on the toilet tightly placed between the sink and a shower glass wall. Water pressure is very low in the otherwise nice shower. Again - no shelve for shampoo or soap in the shower stall. Abundance of artificial flowers (in Portugal, where some tree or bush is always in bloom!) adds some morbid feel to the hotel. That makes it look a little like mausoleum - considering the grandeur, black, red, and gold colors design, solemn faces and classic attire of stuff. The worst part is the restaurant - it looks like rococo palace inside, but the food is worse than mediocre, especially for Portugal, and seriously overpriced. No wonder, it is always empty - tastier food and better prices are just 10-15 min away.

Great option if you have a car and about a 30 min walk to the main city

The staff were kind enough to suggest off-street parking rather than parking inside the compound which would've charged. There was plenty of space to park outside. There were problems with our room, so the staff offered complementary wine while we waited for them to address it.

We had booked a twin room, but was given a double bed. The staff tried separate the beds but couldn't. When asked about upgrading the room with twin beds they said we needed to pay more for the room upgrade - not the correct answer when we specifically booked a twin room. The air conditioning wasn't up to standard as it was still very warm in the room.

Do your homework before you go. Look at your room before you pay upfront.

There was a good choice of food at breakfast. The room was clean and the shower was powerful with hot water always available. The room was soundproof and the air conditioning functioned well. The bed was large and extremely comfortable. We could see the Douro river from our room. See photo for our view.

We had to pay for the room up front when we arrived. We had a junior suite. The Purple Room 221. It was definitely not worth 160 euros per night (including breakfast). The room was on a split level with the sitting area at the lower level in a dark corner next to the en suite. There was no table available in the sitting area. Not conducive to sitting at all - which was the whole point of having a suite! We asked to change our room but were told the hotel was full and nothing else was available. We could see the river but only from the bedroom level and there was a very busy road in front of us quite close to the hotel. There was very little storage space in the room and only a narrow lip round the washbasin for storage in the bathroom. We mostly lived out of our suitcases which is all right for a day but not so good for a week. The hotel advertises a shuttle service (a land train) running half hourly during the day into Porto - three of the four days that we waited for the 10.20 it did not arrive. The swimming pool is small with very limited seating . The only lounge area is in Reception with limited seating and the Bar is in a separate building with a few barstools. The courtyard has a seating area but the courtyard is also the car park! This general lack of convivial public space only emphasised the poor facilities in our room - especially on dark, colder nights in the wet. We gave our feedback directly to the hotel - it has only been open a few months so hopefully things will improve.
