Centralt hotell i Porto
Pros:

Centralt litet hotell nära Stadshuset, men på en sidogata. Mycket trevlig personal i receptionen. 2-stjärnigt hotell. Rummet hade en liten balkong och kylskåp. Populär restaurang i grannhuset med bra mat. Störde dock inte.

Cons:

Bodde på 8:e våningen. På våningen över låg frukostmatsalen. Så lite lyhört på våning 8 - då hissen gick dit och sedan fick gästerna gå en trappa upp till frukostmatsalen som också fungerade som bar efter kl 20.

Pros:

Det var bra med läget nära metro station TRINDADE som låg runt 500 meter från hotellet så det tog runt fem minuter att promenera.

Cons:

Frukosten kunde varit lite större var inte så mycket att välja på så den hoppade jag över efter första morgonen.

Un vrai plaisir! Je reviendrai...
Pros:

Quel bon accueil! Cela fait vraiment plaisir.
Localisation parfaite dans la ville.
J'ai apprécié l'ambiance cordiale et décontractée ainsi que le coté un peu "Old-school" de la déco.
Tres fonctionnel. Très propre. Merci pour toutes vos attentions.

Cons:

rien tout était parfait

Estancia maravillosa
Pros:

Hotel ubicado en pleno centro de Oporto, ideal para moverse andando a todos los puntos de interés.

La habitación doble asignada era muy amplia, cómoda y tranquila, disponia de terraza con unas vista a la ciudad.
Cama grande de 1,80, baño completo y sofá, todo muy bien cuidado.

El desayuno estaba incluido y era excelente, con variedad y buena calidad. Pero,

Mención especial para el personal del hotel, en especial en recepción, de 10 en todo momento, siempre amables y dispuestos a ayudar en cualquier cosa.

Sin duda, un lugar para repetir.

Cons:

Nada, todo fue perfecto
