Stayed at the Hotel de Paris for two nights in late Sep. When I arrived and handed over the prepaid voucher in the reception, it turned out I had mixed up the dates and my booking was in effect for two days later. No problem, no bureacracy or paper work, we got the last room and everybody was happy. Big... more

well I read all the reviews and I must say it was great to have a wonderful place to stay. it was clean,very clean. The staff were so firendly and helpful. I loved the fact that it was an old place and it had such charm. People says it was old but when they take such great care of the... more

This old style hotel is just off the main boulevard in Porto and near the landmark Clerigos church. An eighteenth century building in a typical Porto street with easy access to the university district where trendy Porto folk increasingly hang out. The rooms are basic - absolutely no frills. On their own, I wouldn't wax lyrical. But the communal areas... more

Porto was our first stop on our trip and after a long overnight flight from Seattle, we arrived in the morning and were warmly greeted and well taken care of our entire stay. Our room was nice, with a view back towards the river that was lovely. We were on the third floor with a little balcony. For the price,... more

Great location. Loved Porto and loved the location of this hotel. Entry and reception are lovely. The rooms not quite as nice. The rooms were very simple. Cheaply done. Lights were very dim - you couldn't read by them. Must be the power in general as had problem recharging phones and cameras (maybe not the fault of the hotel). Bathroom... more

When I arrived at this hotel, I though 'Wow!'. The entrance and lobby are both very grand and the public parts of the hotel are also impressive. However, the rooms are quite basic for what you are paying for. The service is exemplary and the breakfast is very good with a lot of choice. The location of the hotel is... more

The Grand Hotel de Paris is situated in an excellent location - about a 5 minute walk from the Sao Bento train station. Everything that we could have possible wanted to see was within walking distance and there are numerous cafes, restaurants, etc just outside the door. The hotel has been wonderfully cared for and has a delightful faded elegance.... more

I love this place. This was the second time I've stayed here (first time in 2004) and it's still great. The hotel is a Victorian era building in central Porto, right off the main square and is located about 5 minutes from the Termine metro and about 10 min walk to the river. Be under no illusions - this is... more

Booked the Grande Hotel de Paris following both TripAdvisor and Rough Guide recommendations. Booked over the internet - was easy and straightforward. Showed up at the hotel only to find that the hotel was actually closed (although - fortunately, attended) and that they had booked a room at the Best Western down the street. I am incensed that they didn't... more
