Nice business hotel
Nice business hotel, would not use it for recreational stay. Great staff, fine room - pillows a bit large/hard, but good facilities and breakfast. Dinner also good - and ask staff for guidance, some very good local restaurants close by (lot of stairs down to the port)
Peter, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good little hotel and facilities for young children. We had a lovely stay and would return. Only downside was the room was a bit small for the four of us but then again we were out and about for most of the days. Location good and only a €4 Uber ride into the old town
Jonathan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Pool is small and crowded but fine and not many in Porto. BBQ night was poor. Should have gone out. Room was fine. Location is short Uber to everywhere but not mention walkable.
lyndon, 1-night trip

The staff are great but the building is dated and could use an update. The location is isolated so it is necessary to drive to find restaurants.

Alastair, 10-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice location close to Porto. Fantastic breakfast. Silent hotel with walking distance to arrabida shopping centre. You cant walk over the closest bridge Ponte de Arrábida when going to porto. Bolt is cheap, take bolt over the bridge and walk the rest. I really recommend the hotel for familys.

A wonderful hotel
I love this hotel because it has a wide-open reception and a children's play area next to it so whenever we visit my daughter always makes a friend or enjoys the play area in the summer you'll have a warm pool which unlike other porto pools - the staff are super friendly and they really go out of their way and the breakfast was so nice and also I really love the outside play area and can't recommend this hotel enough
Rachel, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Air conditioning was not good
Ummul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff had a weird rude attitude throughout our stay. It isn’t exactly the nearest from the main area in Porto, but it worked for us for what we needed it.
Ivania, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

My family enjoyed the amenities of the hotel. It’s was a little disappointment to came to our room and not found it clean, specially the bathroom.
