The view of the Duoro River from all of the rooms and the lovely outdoor space was outstanding. The walking trail alongside the river was easily accessible. I wished we had a longer stay at this wonderful location.

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 great. Staff is nice. Rooms have drinks. Breakfast is free. The lunch and dinner is not my favourite. Better to go outside for that. The rooftop pool is amazing barely anyone there too. You do have to take Uber to get into the city, but only cost around five euros.

Amazing hotel! The hotel itself is gorgeous and just outside the city so it is quiet and less busy than downtown. The restaurants were fantastic too.
