The Lodge was great; i only stayed there one night because i was attending a conference at the hilton (which is about 200 ft away) and couldn't get a room there the first night, but after staying at the lodge the first night i wish i had just booked there the entire time. they offer you a welcome drink while your bags are brought up. the room was spacious and very nice. i had a great view of the river/city. unfortunately there were big wildfires during my stay so (i assume this is why) the pool area was not open

A very modern hotel with great amenities and a really friendly staff. Also has one of the best restaurants in the area, if you want an elevated dining experience (in both senses of the word) located close to all the major port houses, if that is what you are here for.

This was a wonderful hotel. I was able to upgrade to a river view which was totally worth the money. The hotel was beautiful and the staff couldn’t be more welcoming. A must stay place in Porto.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at this beautiful hotel. From the moment we arrived until our departure 8 days later, every effort was made to ensure our time there was nothing short of amazing. Attention to detail was on point; food was delicious; staff were amazing. All of them - I don't know everyone's name, but Ana, Danielle, Hector, Marta, Henrique - were completely delightful. We have stayed at many hotels and this one shines. We look forward to returning & would recommend without any hesitation.

A perfect hotel with nice rooms and a beautiful bathroom. There was a toilet in a separate room. The pool is great with lots of good seating. There are lots of restaurants nearby.

The best! Ten stars!! This was our second time staying at the Lodge and was just as great as the first. The people are so wonderful, accommodating and helpful and really exemplify consummate customer service. The rooms are nice, the bar well-stocked and the breakfasts are incredible, not to mention the perfect location with walking distance to all of the port houses and other attractions in Porto. We even had problems with last minute travel plans and they worked to find an alternate the night before we left. We cannot thank them enough for their help, nor recommend them more highly when you are in Porto. We will return!

Wonderful experience. Staff was amazing and so nice. The included breakfast had many options which was great. Nice big king size bed in the room was very comfortable. As an American, I know that European hotels can sometimes be much smaller compared to what we are used to. This was not the case at all. I highly recommend.

Amazing
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the service was amazing. The room was always spotless, bed was like sleeping in a cloud lol. The breakfast had a huge amount of options and was always well stocked. The waiters /waitresses were always attentive and we were treated like royalty. To be fair every member of staff treated us like royalty and couldn’t do enough for us. Would highly recommend the hotel for comfort, cleanliness and service. Would stay again without hesitation.
