Very good hotel, a little small but cozy, my only advise is that you are not going to find the entrance from the street, is to the side of the building behind a restaurant of the corner.
This hotel is very cool. One of the most special boutique hotels you will ever experience. The room has great views outside. The bathroom is spacious. The owners have thought of every aspect you will want for.your stay. The breakfast is especially delicious and well crafted and to eat it out on the veranda gives you special views of the river and action below.
The bed is comfortable and easy to rest well .
Gran Cruz House is an exceptional place to stay, perfectly situated right on the Douro River. The location is unbeatable, with everything you could want or need just a short walk away. Breakfast was superb, and I highly recommend having dinner at the restaurant as well—the food was delicious. Be sure to sample their outstanding port wine too! The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making our stay truly memorable. I highly recommend Gran Cruz House to anyone visiting Porto!
The property was very central. It was an ideal location to use as a base to explore Porto. The staff were very friendly & helpful. I'd recommend staying here.
Gran Cruz is a lovely hotel well located near the river. It is quite small but clean and comfortable. The breakfast each morning was excellent with good options. Location in the city is great for seeing all of the touristy spots.
Great location, wonderful and delicious breakfast. Thank you Noemi and Mario from your service. The food at Casario for diner was amazing . We love everything at this place
The staff was friendly, we had the White room located on the 6th floor with the river view and what a view. Overlooking the Douro River, the room was very clean and when we walked into the room there was a complimentary bottle of their Port Wine for us to have while we stayed or take with us when we left. Breakfast began at 8:00am at the Casario Restaurant located within the Hotel and it was a Continental a La Carte, we had the option to sit inside or outside looking out to the Douro River. The breakfast was also endless and the staff was very friendly and helpful with anything we needed during breakfast. When we checked out it was quick and easy. There was complimentary Port Wine at the front desk as well where you could try all the different kinds of Port Wine from Ruby to Pink to Tawny. You’re right on the Ribeira and can catch any of the Douro River Tours and restaurants are plenty within walking distance, as well as the Dom Luis Bridge is right nearby as well. You’ll definitely not be disappointed with this room and hotel, especially with the river view!
Best hotel ever! Small, cozy and luxurious. Unbeatable location, Cesario restaurant was great for breakfast ( included) and dinner as well. We loved the chef experience 5 course dinner with wine.
Bruno was very helpful! He arranged for a shuttle to pick us up at the Douro Marina, and he also made reservations for us at your restaurant, Casario. (Bruno was very quick to respond to any communications with us.)
The Casario restaurant was absolutely amazing! Very good! Would definitely recommend!
And the next morning, Bruno was there to serve us a most wonderful complimentary breakfast!
I just wish we had decided to stay a few more days in Porto. We had a wonderful, but too brief, visit there!
I will definitely recommend the Gran Cruz House to friends who plan to visit Porto!
The house/hotel was super nice and had a great combination of modern with vintage style. It was great to listen to the musicians While relaxing in the room. The view was great. Also, very clean and the bed was very comfortable

We were very happy to find this charming hotel in the perfect spot right by the river with an amazing view.
This property was really clean and well maintained. The staff were helpful. They book both a transfer from the train to the hotel and a wine tour for us. Both went smooth and were good. Had water in the room and complimentary wine. The AC was a little weak but could still feel it.
Nice location!! Very lively!! The staff is very nice and helpful especially Mr Bruno at the check-in desk! A little noise at night due to party goers late. Excellent breakfast and top rate dinner in the restaurant (must try lollipop). Will stay there again if coming back to Porto!!
Lovely little hotel with very friendly staff, comfortable rooms and good breakfast. Only problem is the musicians playing outside all day up to about 10pm. They all suffered from being too loud and most of them were tone deaf.
A beautiful hotel!
Delicious breakfast…just amazing.
Located in a perfect area to walk everywhere in Porto’s scenic river district.
The staff was exceptional and recommended great places to dine.
Had a lovely bottle of Port for us in our room.
Highly recommend this lovely place!
Views are amazing, great comfortable beds and the energy around the property make this a great stay

A terrific small hotel where we felt right at home. Furnishings were beautiful. Food in the restaurant, Casario, was fabulous from the a la carte breakfast included to a lovely dinner. Staff was exceptional
