Words from those who visited us
“The hotel is new, beautiful and in an excellent location. It is comfortable, the breakfast is amazing and the staff service is spectacular. They made us feel at home and helped us a lot. In addition, the rooms had all the amenities for my elderly parents and they were VERY attentive. Everyone was very kind and attentive.”
Josefina Escobar
“A very luxurious and elegant hotel. I think the hotel is new. When I booked, I didn’t see any reviews, but I took a chance and booked, and it turned out to be one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in throughout Europe, not just in Porto! Our reservation was for 3 days. The hotel was clean and sophisticated, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was very spacious, the bathroom was large and with hot water, and they provided everything, from tissues and water to toothbrushes.”
Aziz Almutairi
“Amazing hotel with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. From check-in, where they surprised us with flowers for our anniversary, to the delicious breakfast, everything was excellent. The room was beautiful and the bed was extremely comfortable. Despite only being open for three weeks, the service was outstanding. We were sad to leave and would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to return soon.”
Nicola Lindley
“Newly opened hotel in Porto, with comfortable rooms, excellent beds, and elegant decoration. It has a pleasant patio, is close to major attractions and the Crystal Palace Garden, ideal for enjoying the sunset. The breakfast is fantastic and the staff is very friendly, helpful, and attentive. An excellent stay, considered the best of the group during three weeks in Portugal, looking forward to coming back.”

“It was my first stay at this hotel and I had an excellent experience. The staff was very helpful and friendly, the room was beautiful, comfortable and very well decorated, and the cleaning was done daily. The continental breakfast was very good and the fact that it was free was a pleasant surprise. The location is also great. I recommend it without hesitation!”
