Charming and perfectly located in Porto's heart, the hotel offers unique rooms. Friendly staff go above and beyond. Despite some noise from street musicians, the cozy square setting adds to the experience. Spacious rooms, though lacking seating, provide a comfortable stay. A classic gem amongst the city's bustle.

The staff went above and beyond to assist international travelers. The location was perfect for exploring on foot, with a charming room and comfortable amenities. Delicious breakfast, although noise may bother some. Overall, a great stay marred slightly by noise and room layout issues.

The hotel's decoration and general areas are beautifully adorned with light-wood floors and patterned-tile accents, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance. The combination of cooler colors on the beds and walls adds a soothing touch to the décor, perfect for relaxing. Additionally, the hotel's accessible location near the Douro river and major tourist attractions makes it ideal for senior people to enjoy leisurely strolls and easy access to local amenities.
I would suggest more seating with back support in the lobby and dining areas for the comfort of senior guests.

I stayed at this lovely hotel for a few days and it was an amazing experience! The room was impeccably clean and the staff went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the river. I was welcomed with a glass of port wine as a gift, which was a nice touch. The bathroom products were top-notch and I loved having a terrace to relax on.
I do recommend this hotel.

The rooms at this hotel were clean and beautifully decorated, with charming old-fashioned baths and comfortable beds. the hotel's central location made it easy to explore the city by foot, with the main train station and river just a short walk away. There were plenty of shops, restaurants, and nightlife options in the area. the staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable, and the breakfast offered a great selection of hot and cold foods, including a refreshing bucks fizz.
The low water pressure in the shower, which could be improved. Other than that, no major complaints were found.

The room was clean and beautifully decorated with a charming old-fashioned bathtub and comfy beds. Breakfast was top-notch, with a bucks fizz to kick-start the day. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, making the stay feel extra special. 😊 The only downside was the bar area doubling up as the restaurant, which made it a bit less cozy for evening drinks.

Great location! the hotel is situated at the beginning of a cute pedestrian street with lots of shops and outdoor bars. It's also very conveniently located for walking to the main sights in the city. the staff was friendly and helpful, making the stay even more enjoyable. Additionally, the breakfast provided at the hotel was excellent, offering a variety of delicious options to start the day.
One downside of the hotel was the noise from the street performers and crowds in the cafes. They performed late into the night, making it difficult to sleep peacefully.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the heart of the city. The location was perfect, right in the pedestrian zone with a square where live music was always playing. We loved sitting on our balcony and enjoying the lively atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming, even greeting us with a glass of local Port on arrival. The rooms were quirky and well-kept, with all the amenities we needed including toiletries, tea and coffee facilities, and complimentary water. The beds were comfortable and our room even had a small outdoor terrace. The breakfast was fantastic, with a great selection of hot and cold dishes. this hotel exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend it to family and friends.

I chose this hotel for attending an annual general meeting, intrigued by its historical significance as Porto's Araujo & Sobrinho print business and stationary shop, established in 1829. The central location was ideal, providing easy access to the meeting venue and the train station. The staff was accommodating, and the ambiance of the hotel added to the overall professional experience.
The only service I missed for my work was a dedicated business center.

Nothing all excellent.

I loved this place! It's located in the heart of the city, in a pedestrian zone, and there's a really cool square right outside where live music plays. The room was soundproofed so I slept like a baby, and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. They even gave me a welcome drink when I arrived!
I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends.

Plus, it's very close to the Sao Bento Metro station. The rooms are nicely decorated, with a vintage vibe and modern amenities.

The rooms are spacious and cozy, and the private bathrooms are a big plus. The classic bathtub in some rooms is a lovely touch, giving a homely feel that I really appreciated.
Not a big fan of the limited view from some rooms, but that's just me.
