    A hidden beautiful and quit hotel that came as a surprise. So very close to the old town of Porto which is only a bridge away. Staff very helpful especially when it came to renting a car.

    The location, cleanliness, and staff friendliness were all perfect. The best part was definitely the quality of the bed and bedding. I also loved the self-service café on the first floor, which guests could use on an honor system — it was such a nice touch!

    Lovely room, comfortable and modern. Staff were fantastic, making us feel welcome and making sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The honesty bar was fabulous, and the courtyard a lovely place to sit and have a drink after busy days exploring Porto. Location was great, a 3 minute walk down to the river and the centre of Gaia and transport to get across to Porto.

    We had a suite in the old building, it was lovely! And with a great view over Porto! The breakfast room was very nice, looking towards the inner garden. Breakfast was very good. The location in Gaia is also good, close to the river, but also far enough from the noisy main street.

    It sounds a cliche but this hotel is a gem. You would not expect to have a real heaven behind the front doors you won't even notice. A courtyard, an honesty bar, a room with a balcony, blinders, reaaaally comfortable bed and you can sleep with an open window. And it is so close to the WOW wine and culture centre and the river with all the port houses!

    The hotel needs to better communicate location. Is hard to spot and they keep the door shut. They wouldn’t tell you where to park until you arrive which given the chaos one way road system is difficult. I didn’t park in the recommended centre historical car park as despite its relative proximity it is always full and frankly a nightmare, needs a car elevator. I parked in WOW which is great but if you’re there multiple nights you would want to save money and park where the hotel suggests.

    Great location on foot. Nice clean rooms.

    Fantastic boutique hotel!

    • Budget Double Room

    Our room was on the 1st floor and only had windows that opened out into the inside courtyard. There was no natural light and we didn't open the windows for privacy. But it was fine since we didn't stay in the room much. Wish that there was free fresh coffee in the morning.

    Great stay at this boutique hotel that was a lovely mix of old and modern. The staff was very nice and helpful. We loved the location on the Gaia side of the Duoro River. Short walk to many restaurants and landmarks. Highly recommended!

    A beautiful hotel. So tranquil! A quiet oasis away from the crowds. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We arrived early and were able to leave our bags whilst we took a lovely walk along the river. Perfect location for port tasting, river trip and watching the sunset. The honesty bar is lovely and the quiet garden a great way to finish the evening. Definitely would stay again.
