"The staff were super. Room excellent and maid service top notch. Pool a nice touch being heated. Will definitely come again Expedia should rate this 5 Star"
"Beautiful hotel!!! On the other side in Gaia.. we trully enjoyed and travelled with our kids and had a connecting room which was a super plus
Just 1 thing I could say is the showers are open .. maybe great if traveling with only your husband.. but for family with small children not to comfy"
"Spacious room. Complimentary tea, coffee and bottled water. Excellent breakfast, with plenty of variety. The 3rd floor Cuzco bar serves great food and has impressive views of the Douro and the Ponte Luís. A stones throw from the riverside and in the heart of the port wine district."
InterContinental Porto - Palacio das Cardosas by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"We considered several hotels before making up our minds about the Intercontinental and we are delighted we did! It is an impeccable hotel! The décor makes an immediate statement of quiet grandeur and classic elegance. The lighting is a standout: the cascading chandeliers with their layered black shades and crystal elements, create a striking contrast and the polished marble floors, detailed with intricate geometric inlays, convey craftsmanship and permanence, while the neutral palette—creams, ivories, soft golds, and deep blacks—keeps the space timeless rather than trendy. The service is superb (all of the staff is great, reception, restaurant, concierge, etc). Rooms are very spacious and spotless clean and are provided with toiletries, bathrobes, iron with ironing board, great hair dryer, safe, coffee station, and mini bar! The bathroom is also very spacious and comfortable with separate bathtub and shower areas and a separate area for the toilette and bidet. The decoration of the rooms continue with the same ambiance created in the lobbies. The location is superb! The hotel is in the middle of everything and within a short walk to a lot of the touristic attractions. There is a very nice Italian restaurant called La Ricotta nearby which is definitely worth trying. Would most certainly stay again!"
