Chic & basic was awesome. It was in the perfect location. We could stop by the room anytime because it was close to everything we were interested in. The beds were comfy, the breakfast was super convenient with lots of variety, and the internet access was great. We hung out at the bar across the street one night and had a blast and met some new friends. We even met anniversary twins at the bar (we were married the same day and same year). We would definitely stay there again next time we are in Porto!

Despite being opposite one of Porto’s noisiest late-night spots, the rooms in this bright, modern, chic, affordable hotel are almost soundproof, and you’ll never hear a thing. Walkable to everywhere in this walking-friendly city. The breakfast buffet is ample, elegant, and affordable. And the staff might be the friendliest, most informative, and most accommodating of any hotel in which I’ve stayed. A bit pricey, but totally worth it. Highly recommend.

Best part of the experience - staff members. From the moment we walked in we felt like we are among family members. Very accommodating, very friendly, very helpful. Good location, unusual style, comfortable beds. The only disappointing part was the swimming pool (or the lack of it). We looked for a hotel in Porto specifically WITH the pool. It states on the website that it has a pool but in fact it doesn't..... Otherwise, very pleasant stay!!!!! Thank you Manuel for great history lessons!!!!

Lovely staff / great location

Great Boutique hotel - Super friendly lovely staff / excellent location, comfortable bed. A great Bar right next to the hotel. Can be noisy but that didn’t bother us and the windows are double / tripple glas and you don’t hear much if they are closed. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Stunning but room was a let down

Stayed here for 4 nights on a city break. Hotel processed our check in despite us arriving very early and stored our luggage. They gave us such a good overview of the city using a map. They also called us once our room was ready, which was earlier than official check in. We really appreciated this. The overall hotel is super stylish and in great condition. The staff are all friendly. The location is great. The street outside gets very busy at night with the bars spilling onto streets. There are people offering narcotics immediately outside the hotel because of the crowds. But we always felt safe. And none of the noise impacted our stay. We stayed in a suite with terrace. And the room is my only negative thing about this hotel. It was wonderfully spacious but lacking in useful and functional considerations. No drawers to unpack into, small hanging space only. Bedside tables were tiny metal shelves, with one of them losing half its usable space to the phone. There was no where the two of us could sit together in the room to have a coffee. One desk chair. One comfy chair. No table. But so much space to have had these. Bathroom had a double sink which meant no usable space to put your items. Lighting in the shower was dull. 1 bottle of water per day only. Just really not the luxury stay it describes itself as.
