Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the rooms were small and the bathroom tiny, they were surprisingly comfortable. However, the noise from both the street and other guests was quite bothersome. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the old town and city center, making it ideal for exploring the city. The dining experience was decent, although a few more options for breakfast would have been appreciated. Despite the minor inconveniences, my overall experience was positive.
The hotel is centrally located, close to attractions and nightlife, with historic charm and live music at the restaurant. The rooms, while spacious with a balcony, lack elevator access for luggage but offer a quiet stay. Service is exceptional, with friendly and efficient multilingual staff. The dining selection is somewhat limited, yet satisfying. Overall, a great value for the city center position, despite accessibility challenges.
My stay was a mix of positives and negatives. The hotel had a central location and friendly service, but the cleanliness of the rooms left much to be desired. The dining experience was not up to par, with limited breakfast options.
I loved the historic building and the live music at the restaurant, but the dark and unwelcoming atmosphere in the rooms left a lot to be desired. The central location was ideal for exploring Porto, yet the disappointing dining experience was a letdown.
Despite some challenges with elbow space in the rooms, the hotel managed to provide a quiet stay despite its central location. The unwelcoming atmosphere due to dim lighting was a downside, but overall, a peaceful experience right in the heart of the town.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, except for the modern bathrooms with a balcony, were on the smaller side and quite cold due to the windows, necessitating constant use of the A/C. However, the service was helpful and clean, though a bit old. The location was excellent, right in the city center, but improvements are needed. The dining options were limited and not the best, but the continental breakfast in a bright, comfortable room was decent.
