I spend four nights in the Vera Cruz Residential hotel. The hotel has just so wonderful location close to the Av. dos Aliados - just ca. 2 minutes walking distance from Aliados Metro Station and ca. 5 minutes walking distance from Trindade Metro Station (thanks to it arriving from the airport is so easy!). It is also close to the... More

Positives: 1. Staff are extremely friendly, caring and helpful. 2. Great location - a 10 min walk down (and I mean down) to the river 3. Nice view from the roof-top breakfast room Negatives: 1. Stuffy, outdated décor 2. Small rooms, with extremely uncomfortable bed (and I am really not fussy about bed-quality) 3. Damp bathroom with inadequate airflow -... More

I had a simple standard room (the least expensive option) Cons: - Room smelled really, really awful - Shower was tiny, water got all over the floor, the bottom of the curtain had mold. But pressure and temperature were good. - Asking price (60 euros) is too high for the quality - WiFi costs money, but it is available in... More

The hotel is conveniently located for everything in Porto, the rooms are clean, and the breakfast room has a lovely view. However, it has poor insulation and is located on a busy street, so we could hear cars passing all night long. Also, although perfectly adequate, the rooms are charmless and small (I left with a painful bruise on my... More

I had bood a hotel for my daughter and I to spend a few days to get to know Oporto. Unbeknown to us, my husband had arranged to surprise us-the staff made it easy for him to make all the arrangements. Rooms (we had 2) were superior. Breakfast was included and served on bright rooftop setting (w/views). Front desk staff... More

This is a standard traditional city centre hotel but perfectly fine for a short stay. Furnishings in the bedroom were old and traditional wood (nicer than normal hotel stuff) but very well maintained and clean. Mattressess was firm and bedlinen crisp and of good quality. Public areas were pleasant with some thoughtful additions like books and magazines. Lift and double... More
