Very nice property and large, modern rooms. The air conditioner in the first room was not working and they promptly changed us to another room. The room had a Nespresso coffee machine with pods, cream and sugar. As coffee lovers, we were delighted. The second day of our stay, there was no coffee pods. When we called the front desk, we were told it was only free the 1sr night. If we want more pods, we have to pay 0.50 euro per pod and for the cream. We considered it very tacky and distasteful. We were staying 3 nights in the hotel. They need to revisit that policy

The property itself was beautiful, the room was also nice and comfortable and the staff were friendly, professional and super helpful. Wonderful stay. Wish I would have gotten a room upgrade and the VIP amenities and unfortunately the sky bar was closed so I could never have the bridge view but the location and again the friendly staff were very accommodating with my breakfast and my experience was smooth.

Riverside location but some way from the most crowded Ribeira Square area so a good deal quieter, and still excellent views especially from the marvellous Douro Sky Lounge bar on the hotel's roof. Convenient for the fascinating Tram Museum next door, and today's tram goes right past the front of the hotel - the tram is charming but often crowded though and there is no really close Metro station. The rooms in this impressive building - originally a fish market, I was told - are bang up to date and distinctly classy. Very slippery floors in the otherwise delightful bathroom & shower are the only thing that might give me pause for thought at my age. Good for those who can walk some distance, are ok with taking a few taxis, or who are interested in the attractions nearby, which also include the departure point for helicopter tours. I would stay again but might ask if they could provide some mats in the bathroom.

Everything was good except for getting our luggage into the reception area, as the reception area did not have a ramp to roll our luggage in. ON the other hand they had very helpful staff who used a small lift to get our luggage up to the reception level.

Bring good shoes, long walk to Porto action
this is a beautiful, modern, minimalist ambiance hotel. However, the location is not great. Very far from the bridges and hustle of Porto. The service was excellent, very polite and attentive. The rooms are small and the rooftop bar was hosting an event so we were ignored. Also we received a free glass of wine which in my opinion should have been a signature drink, in truth we would have stayed longer and spent more money. Also because you are so far from the main part of Porto or Gaia I thought the food was expensive for Porto but you are somewhat a captive audience because of the distance from the town. We preferred to walk about 20-30 minutes to town for a better and more affordable food. Just a suggestion make the drink something worth coming back for?

Located on the Douro river, the property is near the Ribiero area but not in it.. so less busy. Architecturally interesting, it is an old fish market and the designers kept the themes. Staff were knowledgeable and helpful, rooms very well appointed, and in house restaurants were affordable with quality food.
