I loved this hotel although on first impression you may think its too far away from Porto and doesnt look very attractive from the outside its really whats inside that counts. The breakfast was amazing inc GLUTEN FREE corner with cornflakes & croissants 🙌🙌 The shower in the room had great pressure, an Iron that actually was better than the one at home, a fridge, Great Wifi. Room service, Housekeeping all 1st class and the jewel in the crown was Patricia in the spa!! Best massage yet. Its the staff that make this hotel. Dont worry about location UBER is 2 minutes away and this hotel will save you hundreds of pounds compared to porto old town. Great break away

The hotel was lovely and clean. Suite was spacious and views were beautiful. Only one cup and one robe, and housekeeping didn’t come until we were back for the night but luckily we weren’t too bothered about having the room cleaned. Would return.

Great stay, great view of the city’s comfortable bed, I enjoyed my stay in the hotel. The only feedback I have is that the outside front of the hotel has a smokers section and anytime they smoke all the smoke comes in to the bar area. Aside from that everything was great.

We are regular IHG members and stay in Holiday Inn hotels around the world. This is a truly lovely hotel, with views across the River Douro. Large spacious rooms. Restaurant and bar on site. Helpful staff. 20 mins to the airport. 15 mins walk to the metro. Many shops within walking distance. I would definitely stay again. We had food from the restaurant once which was good. One not so good area. We didn't try the buffet breakfast due to illness but had a room service breakfast instead. The hot item arrived cold, old scrambled eggs from the buffet prepared from powder, and the selection of breads were old and squashed, no jams or honey etc. I'm sure the actual buffet would have been much better had we felt well enough to try it. Overall still fab.
