Very quaint boutique hotel in a great location. The room was beautiful, with a wonderful view over the Duoro river and Dom Luís I Bridge. In easy walking distance of everything (although being Porto, there are lots of hills). The included breakfast was absolutely delicious. All cooked fresh to order rather than a typical buffet. All staff were very friendly and helpful and we appreciated the complimentary bottle of Port in the room. We enjoyed listening to the music outside in the evening, but keep this in mind, as this continues late into the night so may not suit everyone. Surrounding bars/restaurants are okay for a drink to take in the atmosphere but are very touristy. However, there are plenty of choices all within walking distance.

We loved everything about the hotel, most of all the service (special shout out to Bruno). The hotel restaurant's host was wonderful. The chef bakes fresh bread, including gluten free options.

Great location on the river, nice and comfortable room, bed and shower. The staff gets 6 stars for their service! Only thing to consider was that the music playing outside below along the river was pretty loud until 10 or 1030 pm, which didn't really bother us, in fact the singer was pretty good, but our friends in another room tried to sleep early that night and said it was hard. We would still come back and stay there again.

Beautiful small 8 room hotel on the prime corner overlooking the Porto waterfront- not quiet- but great music playing in the square until about 10 - parking is a few blocks away but worth leaving your big suitcase and carrying in an overnight bag - best restaurant ever!

I absolutely loved this property. We stayed in the pink room overlooking the river, and entertainment square. The welcome reception port sample was lovely welcome, and then the bottle that they supply in your room was superb. The view is outstanding, but I will say that if you are sensitive to night noise, it is in a very busy area that parties late into the night. We didn't mind this - we simply shut the doors and put on white noise. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic, and our server remembered our likes (coffee, juices, pastries), after the first day. This really is a gem of a hotel!

Stayed 3nights. Very comfortable and clean, air conditioning worked well/ quiet. The noise from the street was audible through the vintage/ old single pane the glass but it died down enough by11pm or so... didn't have to use ear plugs though it was nice that they're provided. Antonio at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful to many questions and provided a recommendation (and got us reservations) to a fantastic restaurant for dinner ( Adega Dona Antonia ). Breakfast/ items was also very good including the coffee and very attentive/ friendly service from both waiters on both mornings. The third morning they packed us a breakfast to go since we had to leave early. Small/ inconspicuous entry to hotel Might be hard to find if you don't have a guide. We would recommend to stay here. We were on the 5th floor ( Vintage room)

Stunning
Fantastically helpful staff, cute hidden lobby, and GLORIOUS rooms! I cannot believe this wasn't triple the price. I will be recommending it and staying again, on a longer trip.
Bedroom is large, with great materials and windows that open easily.
Bathroom is bigger than mine at home! The towels are INSANE. I own Abyss towels, and these are seriously close, something I've NEVER experienced in a hotel.
