Convenient, beautiful location in the old town
This hotel is set in the picturesque old town of Porto, with a beautiful view of the city. Within walking distance of the Riviera, Vila Nova de Gaia, and the main shopping street, you'll be able to enjoy exploring Porto on foot without any need for a cab.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Parking nearby is difficult
There's limited onsite parking. Though there is plenty of places to park just a short walk away, it can be difficult to find a free one. And when you do, your car might not fit between other cars, particularly if it's a big one.
negative:
Loud on the street side
The hotel is located on a busy walking street, and rooms on the street side tend to be a bit noisy as a result. If you need a quiet room, make sure to specifically book a room on the garden side; not only do they provide a nice view of the hotel's garden, but they're also much quieter.
negative:
Some guests have issues with breakfast
Though most guests have agreed the breakfast is enjoyable, a few guests have complained the breakfast room is a little cramped, or that breakfast starts too late in the morning.
