What a lovely place to stay. The terrace, overlooking the river, was the perfect place to enjoy a leisurely breakfast. Breakfast itself provided and excellent selection too.
The staff were very attentive, helping us get connected to their Internet and quickly replacing a malfunctioning kettle in the room. They were also very efficient when it came to getting a taxi or making reservations at restaurants.
We would certainly stay here again if we came back to Porto.

We absolves this hotel! Excellence in just about everything. Great breakfast buffet, great service, ALL STAFF very, very hospitable, unbeatable location!! At our arrival we went to have dinner at the restaurant. While my husband went to use the restroom I let the waiter know it was our wedding anniversary and I asked if we ordered dessert they would be willing to plate it in a special way. He said yes, but when dessert came they outdid themselves! It was a dessert for two or delicious tiramisu with little lit candles and two glasses of champagne!! And all of that compliments of the restaurant for being our anniversary!! We will definitely come back and recommend this beautiful hotel.

This was a very nice hotel on the banks of the Douro river, excellent restaurant with delicious Portuguese wines. My only complaint is that the restaurant doesn't open until 07:30 for breakfast so I was offer a reception breakfast which truly terrible. Plastic long life white bread, processed ham and cheese and sugary snack, and terrible coffee. Shame as that's what I remember but otherwise was excellent.

The property was lovely and the room had a great view of the river. However, the hotel was so preoccupied with conserving energy that we were not really in control of the room's temperature. The AC would not go below a certain temp setting (and the weather was warm) and it went off altogether every time we stepped out on the terrace. We will not stay there again.

The hotel it self was great however the service and meal in the restaurant was excellent the first night, however on the second day breakfast was ok dinner on the other hand was awful between badly behaving chid and poor service ( ordered drinks which we had to flag down the hostess for after waiting patiently for 20 minutes, and then having the meal served after which the drinks finally came. My wife's fish was over cooked as was my pork tenderloin, could not catch anyone's eye so we left. We eat breakfast in the morning and eat elsewhere for our last day. Would not recommend to our friends to eat there.

Staff service was amazing. Free upgrade, early check in, assistance with bags… just really great from beginning to end.

My only complaint is the person who cleaned the room turned off our AC and opened the balcony door on a 95 degree day. This not only took more than 24 hrs to fully cool back down (the ACs don’t work great there) but actually consumes more energy than leaving it on.

Really nice pool area overlooking the river. Not much within walking distance, but Ubers were quick and cheap. Nice service around the pool, although a little slow at times, made up for by the friendly staff.
Good breakfast options and a wonderful seating area hovering over the edge of the river.
Gym was small, but some free weights and modern cable machine.

We stayed one night in the hotel. It was not suitable for my mobility impaired mother, so well before checkout time we asked for a refund for the remaining two days. We checked out and did not stay the remaining two days, valued over $900. They had zero sympathy for this, and outright refused a refund. Expedia tried to collect the money, and again they refused. I asked for the Front Office Manager's email, and was given a fake email address that is bouncing.

Additionally, this hotel was terrible. The price paid was $450/night. For that price you can get a much better hotel. Don't be fooled by the \"5 star\" rating, it is not real. The \"bar\" is basically a cafeteria, the pool bar is generally closed, there are no plants or anything by the pool, the rooms are extremely small, and the service was no where near 5 star. You are just paying for the view, and there are other hotels that have views also, but are MUCH better. I.E. Yeatman, which was also $450/night. Total ripoff, and just terrible how they treated my mother.

Dishonest, disorganised, disappointing.

We arrived at 3:00pm which is the agreed check in time. Only to be told that a guest had been ill in the room and that the room wasn’t ready. We were offered a downgrade or somewhere to wait in the meanwhile.

While we waited around the pool for a number of hours it because apparent that a number of guest had been told the same “story”.
Our room was finally available to access at 7:00pm.
No offer of compensation, curtesy drinks… nothing!
I was staying at the hotel with my dad, spending some quality time together since I lost my mother, his wife of over 40 years just a few months prior.

So to say it’s left me feeling disappointed is an understatement.

Sad really because the location, room and some of the staff were amazing. I’d guess the management a probably running the hotel short staffed.

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.

Is a 5 stars hotel to charge but is not complying with the standards of 5 stars hotel. Maybe a 3 stars in quality of the service.
Place view is beautiful and rooms and comfortable. The people in general are great and helpful.
The problem for me is lack of good management.
Not the same as the other Pestana group hotels.
Very disappointed of the hotel. Will never recommend and surprise to see a 4.7 rating in the reviews.
Summary. Is a 3 stars hotel with prices of a 5 stars hotel
