Tolles Stadthotel
Pros:

Super Lage, reizendes Personal und ein privater Parkplatz. Wir haben ein Upgrade bekommen und hatten für unsere letzte Nacht in Porto ein wunderschönes großes Zimmer mit Stuckdecke und einer Dachterrasse. Sehr bequemes Bett, großes Bad, und ein gutes Frühstück. Allerdings nicht ganz preisgünstig.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would remember this hotel especially for its atmosphere, beautiful views, great
Pros:

The hotel really impressed us. It has a great location, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We also really appreciated that the hotel is dog-friendly, which made our stay much easier and more comfortable.

The hotel itself has a unique and atmospheric design. It feels like a place with its own character rather than just a standard hotel. There are many interesting details that make the stay more enjoyable.

But the absolute highlight for us was the view from the room. Watching the sunset from the room and then looking at the stars in the evening was an incredible experience. The view really adds something special to the stay and makes the hotel memorable. 🌅✨

Cons:

The main thing we did not enjoy was the breakfast. Unfortunately, there was very little choice, and the food did not feel very nutritious or filling. We would have loved to see more fresh and healthy options, especially for breakfast.

Leider nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Saubere Handtücher, Personal gut (junge Frau sehr nett und hilfsbereit), der teilweise ältere Charme (wie zb die Zimmerdecke) war nett gemacht, jeden Tag frisches Trinkwasser im Zimmer

Cons:

Badezimmer: Wasser stinkt sehr, Toilette war dreckig bei der Ankunft, Dusche läuft stark aus beim Verwenden, komische Flecken an Wänden und Tür, kaum bis keine Ablagemöglichkeiten und keine Lüftung, Badtür schlecht zu öffnen und sehr laut

Zimmer: undefinierbarer Gestank der auch durch konstantes Lüften leider nicht weggeht, viele Flecken im Teppich, sehr hellhörig und der Straßenlärm war sehr störend, keine normalen Deckenbezüge sondern nur Tücher (sehr unhygienisch, da diese von dem Inneren der Decke immer wegrutschen), kein normaler Schrank oder Ablagefläche, Sitzmöglichkeit war nur ein Hocker mit wackeligen Beinen, nur portugiesische Fernsehsender, Steckdose macht komische Geräusche, kein Kühlschrank/Minibar

Lage: war okay (nicht zentral aber in 15 min erreicht man einiges zu Fuß), im Park & den anliegenden Straßen direkt neben dem Hotel waren viele Obdachlose

Goed verblijf!
Pros:

Logeerden hier 3 nachten tijdens ons verblijf aan de stad. Vriendelijk ontvangst, goede kamer en sanitair. Ontbijt was in orde, maar geen wauw gevoel. Wij waren er met de wagen en goed dat je er de wagen veilig kan parkeren.

Cons:

Ligt 30min wandelen van het centrum, maar dat weet je als je dit hotel boekt.
