Independent in Douro Litoral from NZ$119

"Staff was friendly and rooms were nice and big! My only two complaints is that the pullout couch was very noisy and when someone would move everyone heard because it was an open space. I also wasn’t thrilled to get charged to use pool and amenities in spa. As a hotel guest I feel like we should have been given a day pass at least once. "

"River view “apartment” with balcony was an excellent room. Clean, spacious (for european standards) and very comfortable. Hotel had fantastic views of the river and bridge, and extremely easy to get to the city even though it’s not placed in the city center. Staff was extremely helpful and accommodating whenever needed be. Breakfast buffet was extensive and delicious. Will be back if I find myself in Porto again. "

"A lovely hotel, the room was perfect and clean. Breakfast was superb, a good selection with freshly baked pastries A great location too overlooking the river, and accessible to explore the city or get the tram outside to the beaches. Would recommend to anyone who likes understated chic hotels, without the bling. "

"Everything, everybody great at this new hotel (~1 year old)! Enjoyed our short stay.... Good quiet/safe location but still close (~5-10min walking distance) to river, brigde, restaurants, etc"
