Top Centro / Baixa Hotel Reviews

Pestana Vintage Porto Hotel & World Heritage Site

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous river view room, excellent staff, fantastic breakfast!! Beautiful location. Highly recommend!"

Porto Royal Bridges Hotel

8/10 Good

"There was no closet per/say. There was a rack with several hangers. It was quite modern and stylish. The A/C did not function in our room and there was no one on staff who showed how to use it. The street noise at night was quite noticeable. The desk person was quite helpful in getting us transportation to our cruise ship."

Hotels 705 Porto Prime Home

8/10 Good

"Lovely clean hotel and very friendly staff. Be aware the hotel is a 30 min downhill walk to the river and 20 mins to the shops and bars, so obviously a strenuous uphill walk on the way back. Currently building work going on behind and to the side of the hotel therefore spoiling the peace to be found in the garden. We stayed in a deluxe apartment that was huge. In the vicinity are some good Coffee and Pastry shops for the morning and a lovely Italian restaurant for evening. Also a supermarket is 5 mins walk away."
