This hotel should provide a disclaimer or alert guests that the A/C will not be functional or find another alternative. Better maintenance should be in place so the guests will have a comfortable experience. We were placed on the top floor where the A/C was not working. This was in May, I cannot imagine if it was during the summer months. Due to the heat and lack of air circulation, the washroom smell leaked into the room - where the head of the bed is facing. There is a window you can open but due to large amount of birds and other animals, we did not want to take the gamble that they may enter the hotel room.

Descobertas was a perfect hotel for our stay in Porto. It was so close to everything! The included breakfast was a great bonus and they kept everything very clean. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

I must say it is a wonderful hotel in a great location if you want to be in the middle of it all. Down side is there’s an incline to get in and out of it. Transportation vehicles cannot transit in front of it. Only in the early morning hours. But overall, I would definitely go back.

First things first, this hotel is great! It is in a wonderful location, right by the river side. Lots of restaurants, etc. very close by. You can walk up into the city and be to lots of the historic sites within 15 minutes. Room is modern and clean. They do not offer bathrobes or slippers as every other hotel in this category did on our visit. Breakfast buffet is adequate, but with minimal offerings. Of the six hotels during our stay, this was the simplest breakfast. HOWEVER, PARKING is a disaster. Usually hotels if they do not have on-site parking will have some type of arrangement with a local parking lot. This hotel does not. Which means we had to park two blocks away. We got onto the website of that parking, garage, and it calculated €27 a day to park, check out 3 days later, the rate was actually €60 a day. So we spent almost $200 just in parking. Very frustrating. Also, in order to get to the hotel, you must walk down cobblestone street and into the block to get to the front door. So this also means when you check out and leave, you must pull your luggage and bags uphill on a cobblestone street. The description of this hotel on Expedia needs to be much more clear – elderly people, or people with a lot of luggage would have a problem getting to the hotel. And it really needs to be explained that parking can be very expensive and that they do not have a contract with any local. if we had known this, we could've made other arrangements as far as a rental car.

Very quiet hotel, just a stone’s throw away from the Iconic bridge (20seconds to the river.) We loved the intimacy of the hotel, it’s calm vibe and attentive staff. Our room was very spacious, the beds very comfortable and the toiletries great. It was a perfect location for everything we wanted to do in Porto. Just perfect.
