Hotel berhampiran JD Sports, São Pedro Da Afurada

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..

You can walk to the airport ( 7- 10 MN walk). As a con/negative point I would mention the late check in by 4 pm, with the ”friendly” suggestion that you can check in sooner paying a 20£ fee... unacceptable in my opinion...

good location nice staff love all things Portugal i am a solo traveler wan to visit 100 countries ASAP

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.

We stayed at this hotel on a bed and breakfast basis for 7 nights. The hotel was modern and clean, staff were very helpful. The room was cleaned daily and products restocked. The location was perfect for us as situated close to motorway. We had a hire car for the week so the hotel car park was great for us. Burger King was next door so handy if wanted a quick coffee day or night. The hotel does have a bar. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, alongside a full continental selection. I recommend this hotel, we would certainly stay there again.

I arrived at the hotel on 20 November 2022 for a 5 night stay. The stay was business related and with so many hotels to choose from, I decided to go with the Porto Palacio. What an excellent choice! The hotel is absolutely brilliant - I cannot find a fault. Check-in was very smooth and on arrival to the room - wow - very modern, crisp clean sheets on the bed and a spacious room. In terms of food, the Breakfast experience was the best part of the stay for me. I have stayed in many hotels around the world - both on a personal basis and a business basis - I can honestly say that the breakfast staff at the Porto Palacio are the best I've ever come across. On arrival, I was seated quickly. On Day 1, the staff members memorised what I had that cannot be chosen by the buffet - for example, a tea and two plates (as I like two plates) - on Days 2 and for the rest of the trip, I didn't even need to ask. I was called by my Title and Surname on arrival. The whole experience was brilliant. I would like to mention a lady called Rosa and another lady (they both greet staff members at the door) - their hospitality skills are great and they are always smiling - nothing is too much for them. I didn't eat at the restaurant in the evening but had room service as personally, I like to relax after a day at the office. The food was of good quality and was tasty and piping hot. I used the gym during my stay - the gym is open to members of the public, therefore is not your usual hotel gym. It's huge - there are loads of machines and I was never waiting for someone to finish using something. Staff members are friendly. All in all - a brilliant stay and is a genuine 5 star hotel! I will return to the Porto Palacio both on a business basis and also on a personal basis - Porto looks like a great city! It's a shame that I didn't have time to look around as I had a busy schedule but I will certainly be back! Thank you!!

The hotel is located next to the TRINDADE metro station which leads to the airport and which connects the différents metro lines which is very practical. The staff is of high quality and very welcoming and friendly. I have already stayed in this hotel in 2020. The room is very clean and well appointed. I recommend this hotel

Sauberes modernes und günstiges Hotel in 10 Minuten Fußweg oder 3,5€ Uber Fahrt zum Flughafen Porto. Ganz bequem, um von dort abzufliegen. Was mir persönlich in dem Hotel gefehlt hat, waren zwei Dinge: 1) Toilettenbürste 😆 und 2) Wasserkocher, um Kaffee oder Tee zu trinken. Frühstücken konnten wir nicht, weil unser Abflug um 06:55 Uhr war. Daher Wasserkocher wäre perfekt.

El hotel está ubicado a unos 20 minutos de Oporto. Bien comunicado con bus casi a la puerta y perfectamente si vas en coche. La limpieza es extraordinaria, tanto en las habitaciones como en el resto de estancias. La lencería (toallas y ropa de cama) de muy buena calidad. Estupendo tener aire acondicionado en la habitación. Todo el personal muy amable en todo momento y dando solución a nuestras consultas siempre con una sonrisa (pisos, recepción, buffet) El desayuno correcto. Un gran detalle hacer un guiño a la gastronomía portuguesa ofreciendo pasteles de nata. El parking cerrado y gratuito también es un plus a valorar. Me gustaría felicitar por la gestión del establecimiento y a todo el personal que lo hace posible. Se nota todo el trabajo que hay detrás para que los clientes nos sintamos así de bien. ¡Enhorabuena, equipazo!

My experience at this hotel left much to be desired. Right from the start, the reception staff were unwelcoming and unhelpful, particularly the man who was on at our arrival. I emailed ahead stating we would be arriving VERY early asked asked for an early check in but also stated I appreciate this won’t be 9am with our arrival, on arrival we walked up-to desk and I said we are checking in today and before I could finish the ride man said, check In starts at three you will need to come back! After a few more challenges we stored our bags in the luggage room and got changed in the toilets as because we were not checked in we couldn’t have a key card or access to the gym changing area! We arrived back to the hotel at 14:51 and we’re greeted with a it’s not checkin time yet so let me see if your room is ready!!!!! Luckily it was The discomfort continued in our room, where the air conditioner remained non-functional for the first two days, making the room unbearably hot. It wasn't until I expressed my frustration loudly after 2 days of polite chasing at the front desk that someone was sent to fix it. The quality of the bed was another issue – the springs in the mattress were palpable, leading to restless nights. On top of this, the Wi-Fi was frustratingly slow, making it challenging to stay connected. The condition of the pool was consistently subpar, with murky water and a lack of cleanliness. Communicating with the staff was a challenge due to their limited English proficiency, often requiring multiple attempts to convey simple requests. The room itself did not live up to expectations, lacking comfort and proper amenities. As someone who values a good hotel gym, the fitness center here was a major letdown. It lacked essential equipment, and the cable machine was out of order. To make matters worse, the elevator leading to the gym was also out of service. The hotel's location was far from ideal, situated a considerable distance from both the city center and the beach, making it inconvenient and isolated. This however is an observation and my poor choice of location In summary, this hotel, despite its appearance, should be rated as a 1-star establishment due to unfriendly staff, issues with room amenities, and a disappointing gym. It does not deliver value for its price, especially given its inconvenient location. And it’s hilarious that it is a 5 star hotel
