Hotel berhampiran Instituto Pernambuco Porto, Porto

Room was very clean but very small

Hotel in zona Afurada a Porto, leggermente decentrato ma da tenere veramente in considerazione per visitare la città. Camera e bagno piccolini, ma dotati di ogni comfort. Noi eravamo al terzo piano con vista sul mare, bollitore per caffè e tè, acqua di cortesi, prodotti da bagno molto buoni, compresa una crema per il corpo che ho trovato di buona profumazione e veramente gradevole dopo la doccia. Parcheggio gratuito. La colazione è super, disponibile fino alle 12, mette a disposizione frutta fresca, yogurt ottimi di tre tipi diversi, pasticceria fresca comprese le ottime Pastel de Nata, pane e affettati, formaggi, marmellate e miele. C'è la possibilità di farsi i pancake e le spremute da soli. Tutti ottimi prodotti! Hotel 3 stelle con servizio colazione da 4. Se non si vuole prendere macchina o mezzi pubblici, si può chiamare Bolt che con 3 euro circa ti porta al Ponte Luiz da dove si possono raggiungere a piedi molte attrazioni della città che ho trovato molto bella.

Great location close to the Metro, although a bit noisy as there is construction outside and a barking next door. The rooms are tiny with minimal amenities. This is not a 4 star hotel as our package promised. Just a heads up, they charge you for extra coffee pods. Staff here is professional and very helpful-they wear many hats! They helped us book an amazing tour. Walking distance to shopping, an amazing indoor food court, and grocery stores. The breakfast room is very nice, and has good selections.

Gostava de deixar um comentário sobre o Novotel porque realmente surpreendeu-me muito pela positiva. Ia sem grandes expectativas. Vi alguns comentários que mencionavam a antiguidade dos quartos e a falta de modernidade. A realidade NÃO é essa. O Hotel é maravilhoso. A entrada é enorme, os funcionários são super simpáticos e facilitam a estadia. Ficamos num quarto com vista para o mar. Com uma boa casa de banho, com uma banheira grande. Os armários do quarto são imensos! Tem um sofá cama mesmo que seja um quarto para dois. A televisão era igualmente enorme! O quarto é bonito, com uma decoração, e aconchegante. Tem ar condicionado e um mini bar que estava incluído no preço todas as bebidas do mesmo. A zona do restaurante era muito bonita. A piscina? Muito boa. A água estava sempre morna. De 0 a 10, avalio o Novotel com um 9 e só não dou um 10 pelo tamanho da piscina. É um hotel muito bom e procurado por famílias com crianças, o que faz com que a piscina esteja sempre cheia. Quanto ao pequeno almoço também quero deixar um elogio, pois é bastante variado e nunca deixam acabar as coisas. Gostei muito

Do not be put off by the reviews for this hotel. Our experience was really good and with a little planning this could be the ideal hotel for your Porto stay. The hotel is a solid 5* and I spend a lot of times in good hotels. The bar area down stairs is comfortable and a nice place for a pre or post dinner drink. The cheapest decent wine we came across during our stay at Porto was here @ less than 4€ a glass! The executive room we stayed in was immaculate, large and with a very comfy bed. The views from the 12th floor were wonderful overlooking the river. There are two swimming pools and whilst the one on the roof was too chilly for a dip during the day at night it made for a very chilled area to drink. The other pool is above the gym on the 1st floor and it’s nice that there are dressing gowns in the bedroom so you can just go down from your room without having to walk across reception. The restaurant offers a buffet and a La carte. Neither were anything special and we only ate here once. The breakfast was much better with loads of choice and decent scrambled eggs! One of the best things was how cheap Uber are in Porto. You need them as there is nothing around the hotel and it’s not safe to be walking around at night here. 5€ To Porto, 7€ to Mastohinos and around 20€ to the airport makes travelling to places quick and cheap. Days out: If after a few days in central Porto and Gaia you are looking for other lovely places to go I would highly recommend going to these places: Mastohinos - 7€ in Uber and only 15 minutes from the hotelfor beautiful beaches, a lovely park and some of the best seafood restaurants in Portugal. Guimaraes: 7.5€ return on train from Sao Bento railway station. A beautiful medieval town with beautiful cheap dining, castles, palaces a cable car and more churches than you can imagine. If you do go here PLEASE try the pregos at Pregaria de Guimaraes. They are truly amazing and outshone for me anything I tried in Porto.

We booked here last minute to spend 3 days as a family, we arrived late, the rooms were ready. We wanted to change the rooms into connected rooms. The property is clean, customer service is great. It is also next to a shopping mall where you can get good food and do some shopping if needed. Uber is easy in Porto so no need to worry about any trips to the beach or tourist attractions.

The unique design of the hotel, I like it very much, as soon as I enter the door, there is a friendly reception of the lobby staff, which is exactly what I need. Front desk staff meticulous care, patience and professional explanation of the surrounding attractions and food, hotel rooms are also a lot of free items, mineral water, soda water, a variety of drinks room is spacious, light transmittance is very good, clean, simply refreshing, bed is also very comfortable, the room is central air conditioning, is simply a palace level of enjoyment. Go out to visit also sent a handwritten map, and to help me book the show tickets and cars, the model is very comfortable and enjoy the whole journey, too intimate! Really good, really checked in the left and right guests let people feel that other hotels do not feel very down-to-earth! There's fruit at night. It's so sweet. I'll stay in a hotel like this more often.

1. This is 5 star accommodation. Historic building with character but modern. Perfect for two couples. Matching accommodation no fights over the best rooms which are on separate floors. 2. Perfect location for exploring Porto minutes from main areas but quiet 3. Perfect host. Helpful and accommodating. 4. Clean, quality towels, and bath products etc.... 5 100% recommended..

Stayed four night as a base for Porto centre. Would give it 3.5 if possible to use halfs. Rooms were clean although showing signs of wear. Bed made up daily and fresh towels. Lack of shelf space in cupboard. Used for breakfast once but also tried the Mitica Inspiracao out of the back door twice for a more relaxed setting and no temptation to overfill v the buffet. Shower has good temperature and flow. Friendly and helpful reception staff. Nearby supermarket for anything you need. The bus from the airport took 50 mins during the morning midweek, and initially goes away from the hotel before heading back towards it. If I was doing it again I would take the Metro to Ramalde the nearest stop and then get an Uber to the hotel. The airport Metro is just behind the road at arrivals. Bus 304 seemed the quicker bus than the 300 or 301 into town. Had issues with bus reliability getting back from town after 8pm using information from route planner on Google maps .. chasing round various bus stops near the Town Hall Square to no avail. Ended up prefering to get the Metro back to Ramalde and then €3 for an Uber. Opted to use luggage lockers at Trindade Metro, €6 small for upto 12 hours rather than detour back to the hotel on the last day. Other sizes available but limited availability.

Great hotel. Has everything going for it. Breakfast good choice. Room good size . All amenities. House staff lovely and helpful. Restaurant excellent, worthwhile booking to ensure a seat. Spa and indoor pool very relaxing.
