Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Location scores lower than other aspects — While guests find it convenient, the location rating is the lowest of the categories, suggesting it may not be within immediate walking distance to the very centre.
  • Price and service rated slightly lower — The 'Price and service' category also scores 7, indicating that some guests may find the value less compelling compared to other strengths.
  • No detailed landmark proximity — The page lacks specific distances to major attractions, so you may need to plan transit or walking times yourself.

“The staff are absolutely wonderful, and the room is impeccable with all the amenities you’d expect from a Crowne Plaza.”

8.7Verified guest

“We were impressed by the quality, presentation, and service in the restaurant. The chef is extremely talented, offering a high-quality and innovative menu. This restaurant is a hidden gem, not your average city hotel dining.”

8.7Verified guest

“The staff were very good, especially with my special requests. My room was spacious with a fine view of the city.”

8.7Verified guest

“I’ve been visiting Porto on business for over 20 years. I stopped staying here when the Sheraton opened next door, as the hotel needed refurbishment and the food was average. The modernisation has brought it up to international standards, and the food is now excellent. We ate as well here as anywhere in Porto, and the food puts the Sheraton’s to shame. The rate was good, and the staff were terrific. I’m recommending it to friends.”

8.7Verified guest

“Rooms were excellent with all amenities for a comfortable stay. Tastefully decorated with a cosy feel. We stayed only one night, but we’d be comfortable and well served here for longer. Porto is small enough that this hotel is close to all attractions, and the open-top buses pass right in front.”
