Chic & basic was awesome. It was in the perfect location. We could stop by the room anytime because it was close to everything we were interested in. The beds were comfy, the breakfast was super convenient with lots of variety, and the internet access was great. We hung out at the bar across the street one night and had a blast and met some new friends. We even met anniversary twins at the bar (we were married the same day and same year). We would definitely stay there again next time we are in Porto!

Despite being opposite one of Porto’s noisiest late-night spots, the rooms in this bright, modern, chic, affordable hotel are almost soundproof, and you’ll never hear a thing. Walkable to everywhere in this walking-friendly city. The breakfast buffet is ample, elegant, and affordable. And the staff might be the friendliest, most informative, and most accommodating of any hotel in which I’ve stayed. A bit pricey, but totally worth it. Highly recommend.

Best part of the experience - staff members. From the moment we walked in we felt like we are among family members. Very accommodating, very friendly, very helpful. Good location, unusual style, comfortable beds. The only disappointing part was the swimming pool (or the lack of it). We looked for a hotel in Porto specifically WITH the pool. It states on the website that it has a pool but in fact it doesn't..... Otherwise, very pleasant stay!!!!! Thank you Manuel for great history lessons!!!!

This hotel may not be 5 stars however their service is beyond five stars. The staff are very attentive, professional and friendly. They will go above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best. The manager Jose is amazing and the staff appear as if they are treated well and are committed to make your stay exceptional. They made me feel at home while abroad. The staff must love what they do because it comes across when they interact with you. I received five star service during my stay. We want to come back! Thank you all at Chic & Basic Gravity!
