The hotel rooms are really clean and have an original interior just like you see in the photos. They are chic and come with air conditioning and a large luxurious bathroom. However, they tended to be really hot even with the air con. The service is very kind, friendly, and welcoming, making me want to come back for sure. The location is very central and could not be better, as it is close to most of the important landmarks, delicious restaurants, and cool bars. The dining experience offers four set menu choices that should cater to most tastes, although it could be improved with more variety. The facilities are convenient and well-maintained.

The hotel offers a unique room concept that, while impressive, may not fully justify the price. The rooms are clean and stylish, albeit on the smaller side for two people without a lounge area. The location is excellent, right in the heart of the city with convenient self-service lockers on each level. The dining options are diverse but slightly pricey, and the service, although friendly, can be slow at times.

Staying in a non-traditional room setup at this hotel is an interesting concept, but it may not fully meet the expectations considering the price. The rooms are well soundproofed, providing a quiet environment for your stay. The service is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff, except for some occasional delays. The location is convenient, being close to the shopping district and within walking distance of all key spots in Porto. While the dining options are good, breakfast comes at an additional cost. The overall value for money is reasonable.

The hotel's rooftop rooms were small and compact but fine for one night, very clean and well-equipped. However, it can get quite noisy at night due to the bar and restaurant on the ground floor. The service was really friendly and helpful, especially at reception, with a paid shuttle service available. The location is central, right next to the shopping district and within walking distance of popular spots in Porto. The dining experience had 4 menus instead of a buffet, seen as a better solution, although with very basic options. The facilities were well-maintained.

The hotel offers spotlessly clean and very comfortable rooms, but lacks some basic equipment for a more enjoyable stay. It can get pretty hot even in winter without the air conditioning on. The service is friendly and kind, but there were issues with the air conditioning not working for cooling. The location is excellent, close to important landmarks and public transport. The dining options are delicious with fresh produce, but the choices are limited. Overall, a great value for money stay with some minor room amenities missing.
