A lovely stay in the Royal Suite of a real castle/villa!
There was some construction going on to maintain and upgrade the property, which didn't impact on our staymuch.

The historical hotel is beautiful. It is well preserved and cared for. The room was comfortable, great bed, bathroom was modern and very clean with excellent water pressure. Delicious breakfast in a historical area.
My only issue it was a longer walk to the main square and restaurants then expected. That is not something you can change, but just helpful for tourists to know.
Wonderful place.

We had a wonderful experience and appreciated the owner showing us the beautiful sanctuary. We will recommend your place to anyone coming to Porto. At checkin, it would have helped to know the Bistro existed. You may also consider safety strips on the bottom of the bathtubs. Overall, our experience was tremendous.

The staff are wonderful! The property is beautiful. Our room was average-3 star hotel room. The bed was awful. The shower was great. Minimal room for toiletries. It did have a fridge and a safe. AC worked well. We did not get a room with all the ornate furniture.
I guess that’s up to availability when you get there.
The area is far from city center if you want to walk. It’s a good 35-40 minute walk. There is a metro station 5 minutes away walking.Overall good stay but due to the distance and the bed we would not come back.

Loved the garden and patio chairs everywhere .Hotel was combo of modern and unique old style
Breakfast was lovely and had fancy area where buffet style was served .Breakfast host was lovely and kind to explain about traditional desserts they had on menu . He event went extra mile to save me one of traditional desserts on my day 2 . I thought breakfast area felt like I went for high tea every day , absolutely amazing
