Really nice rooms that have everything you need. The property is beautiful but it’s a little difficult to get around to the different areas. Outside areas are very nice with great views.
Away from main Porto city but close enough. Easy to park in the area. Enjoy the buffet breakfast. Rooms are spacious, clean, modern and great views of the city. Staff friendly and helpful. I recommend this hotel.
Nonfunctioning air conditioning,
Noisy from people walking along the river, concert was being held at 1130pm in the conference room and could be heard from our room
This hotel is a renovated perfume factory, very cute with good access by car to main attractions Porto (or a 55 minute stroll).

The room was simply beautiful and the views from the balcony were absolutely fabulous. The hotel boasted fantastic amenities such as indoor and outdoor pools, a games room, and a gym that were all well-maintained and enjoyable to use.
One aspect of this hotel that stands out is its secluded location. While this may require additional transportation costs to reach the heart of Porto, the upside is the serene and peaceful environment the hotel offers. It was a delight to come back to a quiet place after a day of exploring the city, where one could relax on the balcony and admire the twinkling lights of Porto and the river.
However, there were some downsides to consider. One notable point was the limited dining options due to the hotel's location. The buffet dinner priced at €35 per person seemed steep compared to the value it offered. Additionally, the absence of a stocked mini bar with complimentary water or other beverages was a disappointment.
Although the toiletries provided were of good quality, the absence of hair conditioner was a let-down. It would be beneficial for the hotel to consider adding this item to enhance guests' experience.
In conclusion, I would recommend this hotel if you seek a peaceful retreat away from the bustling city center of Porto.
We truly enjoyed our staff. Staff were awesome. If you need something do not hesitate to ask. We would stop in the bar at night after a long day and the bartender would make a beautiful cappuccino. Be sure to get a room with a balcony and enjoy the morning river views.
