We used to go to the Villa C hotel in Vila do Conde, but we decided to try the Santana Hotel this time. And it paid off! :) Customer service was fantastic, everyone really nice and attentive. I don't want to go into comparisons but it was by far the best experience in this subject in hotels in the area.... More

In my opinion this hotel has a reasonable quality/price ratio. It is located at the entrance of the city, perfectly ok if you are traveling by car. The breakfast is good and the staff is also pleasant. I would say some furniture should be renewed.

There are better rooms available in the hotel, in the ground floor. However, I was so "lucky" to get one in the minus smthg floor, with old worn out carpet, old bed, old TV, old etc etc. In the so called fitness room just one machine was working, forget the rest. The windows in the gangways of the hotel need... More

Excellent location, next to the river Ave. Very friendly personnel. Breakfast is ok. Nice rooms (with balcony) lacking in space just a little bit. Tv was old and refrigerator made some noise (although it didn't disturb our sleep).

This is a nice and clean hotel near the River Ave, the river that passes through Vila do Conde. The hotel is very modern and comfortable, with good facilities and a good breakfast, but it's not in the city centre. It's a good hotel to stay when you're exploring the north of Portugal.

Our party of 4 stayed for 4 nights in 2 rooms at the Santana Hotel. The hotel is located up a short, steep cobbled hill about 15 minutes walk from the Santa Clara Metro stop, (only a 5-minute uphill walk after crossing the bridge but not a great option when dragging a suitcase) and normally there are no taxis outside...

The Santana is perched on the hill above Vila Do Conde so affords quite spectacular views. On arrival the front desk area and carpeting did seem in need of a bit of care and attention. The receptionist was helpful and friendly and asked if we needed any help with our luggage which we declined but regretted!! It was quite a... More

Awful hotel, definitely NOT a 4 star. The only redeeming quality about this hotel is the restaurant. When I arrived at 12am due to a delayed TAP air portugal flight, I was told that the only thing to eat in the hotel and vicinity was a ham and cheese sandwich. When I arrived to my room, I had no wireless... More
