Although this property was a 25 mins walk from the main attractions, it was easy to park here which was one of the reasons why we chose it. We were in a more modern room that was not located in the main castle and the room was quite spacious and clean. The big negative about this property for me though was how uncomfortable the bed was and this was the reason for my 6/10 rating. It felt like there was no padding between me and the springs in the mattress. I have never slept on such a terrible mattress in my life. The only reason I was able to tolerate staying here for the 2nd night was that I found a thick blanket in the closet which I folded and placed between the mattress and the bed sheet. Honestly, I was surprised that such a nice hotel had not invested in better mattresses. They should at least add a memory foam mattress topper. I would not stay in this hotel again unless I knew they had fixed the mattress issue.

Inside the confines of the beautiful hotel vacility and grounds it was wonderful. Everything was secure the staff was great. The breakfast (included) was excellent. We loved everything about the hotel and grounds. The only thing negative would be the distance to the historical area (2km) and the area around the hotel was a little sketchy. All said… it was a wonderful stay.

Porto stay and day cruise on the Douro to Pinhau.
A lovely 18th century hotel set in lovely grounds. The old and the new blended exceptionally well. Attention to detail was second to none. The staff were friendly, helpful and provided useful information on where and what to visit. Short walk from a metro station. A definite place to stay in Porto, just so charming.

An amazing stay. Very convenient location near the metro and secure parking is on offer at a small price. A beautiful breakfast every day. The only small detail was that the toilet stopped flushing the last night we were there but will have been fixed for the next guests no doubt.

Very atmospheric hotel.
If you want to live in atmosphere of late 19th century chose the castle tower. They have suots on the low level, but they are ordinary. Service and front desk is wonderful. The breakfast is average and almost the same every day with limited veriety, not exiting but ok. Parkin is $12 a day.

Quirky and comfortable
Lovely, quirky hotel with bags of character, friendly and helpful staff and comfortable rooms, and good value. Location is slightly against it, though, as it's just a bit too far out of the centre to pop back once you've gone out for the day, although taxis and Ubers are available and not too expensive.
