This hotel was perfect for a pit stop after a long day of travelling. If you are planning a trip via mainland on coach through Spain to Cascais or Lisbon via Porto then I would recommend you spend your night's rest at this hotel. It's conveniently located to the intermodal Coach station and Campanha train station (5min by Uber or Bolt - walking will take you 25-30min which i wouldnt recommend if you have lots of luggage on you as the pavements are quite elevated!), it's connected to the Alamada shopping centre so you can head over for a bite to eat in the food court and wonder around the shops or supermarket and gets some bits for the onward journey, and the breakfast buffet in the morning is plentiful and set in a nice dining space with views of parts of Porto. To top it off, its also located right in front of Porto's football stadium so if you're interested in Portugal's sports culture then you will have the added bonus of taking pictures with direct views of the pitch without having to go inside. The hotel was quiet, bed was decent, pillows were ok. The only downside to our stay was the fact that my advanced request for a lower floor room couldnt be accommodated despite the fact i made it clear I cannot go inside lifts and have hip impingement so can't go up too many flight of stairs. I ended up in a lot of pain considering the staircase doesn't reflect the actual number of floors we had to walk up (more the like double! 3rd = 6 flight of stairs). Not disability friendly.
