Hotels near City Church, Porto

The hotel is located in a very good state of the city and is very new. The hotel is very helpful, careful and pleasant! Some basic services are paid as a shower towel or a slipper.

Having had to leave our previous 'hotel' as it was so horrendous we arrived here where we were greeted with very friendly staff and a warm lobby. They sorted us a room and must have given us a really nice room following our bad experience as we were on the 6th floor at the back with a lovely view of the city. The room itself was really quite large and the bed was extremely comfortable. We slept so well! There was a TV, free wifi, AC/heating and a really nice bathroom. The bar/room service menus were reasonably priced and the staff had great knowledge of the city. The hotel itself is about a 5/10 minute walk from the main station you arrive in to from the airport which was really handy for our early journey on our final day. Would stay here again if I went back to Porto!

more like a villa than a hostel 😳❤️ super duper cozy! the people are so nice too! one of the best hostel breakfasts! they also give you afternoon tea and a snack! i got pancake!

Beautiful boutique hotel in great location. I did not really expect it would be so good. From the professional welcome to modern and comfy room, everything was just great! The price was quite high, but I think it was worth paying. We haven't taken breakfast, but there is a great place named Maria limão lovemade literally next door and I recommend having a bit there!

We really loved this hotel. The rooms and washrooms were spacious and well kept. The mini fridge was stocked and well priced. There is a mall in short walking distance and some great restaurants. We would have preferred to stay closer to the downtown area however the taxi ride was only 10 euro so it wasn’t too costly and the hotel really was beautiful.

I arrived at the hotel on 20 November 2022 for a 5 night stay. The stay was business related and with so many hotels to choose from, I decided to go with the Porto Palacio. What an excellent choice! The hotel is absolutely brilliant - I cannot find a fault. Check-in was very smooth and on arrival to the room - wow - very modern, crisp clean sheets on the bed and a spacious room. In terms of food, the Breakfast experience was the best part of the stay for me. I have stayed in many hotels around the world - both on a personal basis and a business basis - I can honestly say that the breakfast staff at the Porto Palacio are the best I've ever come across. On arrival, I was seated quickly. On Day 1, the staff members memorised what I had that cannot be chosen by the buffet - for example, a tea and two plates (as I like two plates) - on Days 2 and for the rest of the trip, I didn't even need to ask. I was called by my Title and Surname on arrival. The whole experience was brilliant. I would like to mention a lady called Rosa and another lady (they both greet staff members at the door) - their hospitality skills are great and they are always smiling - nothing is too much for them. I didn't eat at the restaurant in the evening but had room service as personally, I like to relax after a day at the office. The food was of good quality and was tasty and piping hot. I used the gym during my stay - the gym is open to members of the public, therefore is not your usual hotel gym. It's huge - there are loads of machines and I was never waiting for someone to finish using something. Staff members are friendly. All in all - a brilliant stay and is a genuine 5 star hotel! I will return to the Porto Palacio both on a business basis and also on a personal basis - Porto looks like a great city! It's a shame that I didn't have time to look around as I had a busy schedule but I will certainly be back! Thank you!!

A quirky former paint factory (so they told us) set about 15 minutes walk downhill to the riverside of the beautiful River Douro, with all the cafes, restaurants and port museums. Hotel fairly grand looking and hotel staff all smartly attired. We were upgraded to a lovely suite with window overlooking the Douro. Negative for everyone else that all other rooms had windows facing into the courtyard which seemed a poor design. Buffet breakfast adequate, evening meal adequate.

The facilities are great and very modern. The breakfast was amazing and had, in fact, a big variety of choices.

Stayed four night as a base for Porto centre. Would give it 3.5 if possible to use halfs. Rooms were clean although showing signs of wear. Bed made up daily and fresh towels. Lack of shelf space in cupboard. Used for breakfast once but also tried the Mitica Inspiracao out of the back door twice for a more relaxed setting and no temptation to overfill v the buffet. Shower has good temperature and flow. Friendly and helpful reception staff. Nearby supermarket for anything you need. The bus from the airport took 50 mins during the morning midweek, and initially goes away from the hotel before heading back towards it. If I was doing it again I would take the Metro to Ramalde the nearest stop and then get an Uber to the hotel. The airport Metro is just behind the road at arrivals. Bus 304 seemed the quicker bus than the 300 or 301 into town. Had issues with bus reliability getting back from town after 8pm using information from route planner on Google maps .. chasing round various bus stops near the Town Hall Square to no avail. Ended up prefering to get the Metro back to Ramalde and then €3 for an Uber. Opted to use luggage lockers at Trindade Metro, €6 small for upto 12 hours rather than detour back to the hotel on the last day. Other sizes available but limited availability.

Yes it’s out of town. If this is no great for you, pay the extra and go to the centre. Look on a map, it’s not difficult! It suited us down to the ground, the few bars etc around are truly for the Portuguese and not the tourist. There is a Metro a short walk away, then you can travel anywhere. Great breakfast, likes the Turkish bath etc and the pool is fun albeit too small to do lengths. Good value for money, would stay here again.
