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.

The white room is beautiful and has beautiful views of the river. Very clean, well maintained, excellent staff. We left super early to catch our flight, and they surprised us with a to-go breakfast box from the restaurant. Very nice detail and came in handy!

Lovely place. Even better than the pictures. Directly on Riberia Square so expect some noise but it more than makes up for it in comfort and finish.

This was a wonderful boutique hotel that was a perfect place to stay on the waterfront in Porto, within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly, especially Antonio. The restaurant was so good that we did most of our dining at the hotel. The breakfast that was included was very good as well. It is a lively atmosphere with lots of cafes on the street but when we closed the windows and shutters it was remarkably quiet. We enjoyed the street musicians as it added to the ambiance. Would definitely stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel, itself was lovely~ spacious room, well appointed, and excellent location. The review is unfavorable due to the hotel’s restaurant. We ate their complimentary breakfast Saturday morning and had reservations for Saturday night (we did not eat anything else on Saturday, as we were looking forward to their menu offerings). We ate Sunday’s complimentary breakfast. Immediately following breakfast, my wife started to have diarrhea. Within 2 hours she was vomiting uncontrollably. My malaise set in around that time, and I experienced the same vomiting and diarrhea . It is 48 hours post our dinner, and 33 hours post our breakfast, and we are still sick. I hate to leave such a negative review, but I also feel obliged to warn other travels.

Incredibly nice staff. Breakfast had bread, juice, and your choice of something cooked and was very good. Rooms are well done and look nice. Only complaint is it is in a very lively area and it can be late outside until the crowd quiets down (also one of its positives).

Amazing and helpful staff. Delicious breakfast. Beautiful boutique hotel with 5 star bed and linens. Lively location with lots of restaurants and shopping. Very loud plaza at all hours of the day and night so if you are a light sleeper use a sound machine app.
