The hotel is great. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Location is ideal except it is noisy outside. If you are a light sleeper, make sure you enquire about a quieter room.

Room was fine; safety bars in the shower would be a nice addition. Location was excellent especially for Ribeira and Gaia. Breakfast was good.
All the staff were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. They loved their city and really wanted us to enjoy it. Restaurant recommendations were excellent. The receptionist who greeted us on arrival was particularly helpful and made us feel so welcome.

Nice location. Great reception staff. Difficult access - we’re not able to get dropped off and had to walk 1.5 blocks with the luggage.

Unique entrance at area taxis cannot enter (but they can drop you at the top of the hill very near by). Breakfast was exceptional with all the choices. Room was quiet and clean. Beautiful tapestries and old shoes as decorations in our room. Nice corner cushioned nook to rest on. Two twin beds. Excellent place. Would return.
