I stayed here from April 9th–12th and absolutely loved my experience. The location couldn’t be better — right by a bus route and just steps from Mercado Bom Sucesso, so I never ran out of great food options. What really stood out, though, was the staff. They were incredibly kind and attentive. When I checked in, Teresa at the front desk noticed my suitcase handle was broken. She told me they might be able to fix it, and on April 11th she actually repaired it for me in the lobby. That level of care meant so much. The hotel was spotless, comfortable, and convenient in every way. I’m already looking forward to staying here again on my next trip to Porto.

There is a lot to like about this unusual boutique hotel. I loved the musical theme - there were pictures of music and or instruments decorating the walls, even the bedside lamps were in the shape of a treble clef. And the staff were lovely - very friendly and helpful.|However, it's a long way out of town and it was difficult to find nice places locally to eat. Dinner in the hotel itself was disappointing - a set menu only, no choice, and the meal served was mediocre.|And the bathroom arrangement was decidedly quirky. The sink area was open to the room with a shower cubicle and a toilet cubicle off: the toilet didn't have an actual door, just a frosted glass screen which allowed sounds, and smells, to escape into the room.

The hotel has both pros and cons. Location is not the best for sightseeing, it’s about a 10-minute walk to the nearest metro, then a few stops to the main attractions, which can be inconvenient especially in rainy weather. On the plus side, it’s right next to a lively market/food court with lots of local bites, and there’s even a supermarket inside.The staff were very kind, spoke good uEnglish, and even provided a welcome plate with fruits and egg tarts, which was a lovely touch. The room itself was nicer than the photos: spacious, very clean, with a safe box, closet, and separate bathroom and toilet. Breakfast was plentiful with many varieties, though it was the same selection every day.A few downsides: the cleaning staff entered my room twice while I was inside (once early in the morning while I was asleep, and another time while I was in the bathroom). They may have knocked, but it still felt intrusive. The window setup was also awkward, my room faced the lobby, so I had to keep the curtain closed the whole stay for privacy, which made the room dark.Overall, it’s a comfortable hotel with great staff, but the location isn’t ideal if you want to be close to main attractions. If the price is good compared to the ones in the center, then it could be a good choose as taxis to the center cost about €5 one way. Otherwise, I’d probably choose somewhere in the more central area next time.

It is a beautiful hotel that is connected to the market. The rooms are beautiful and the bed is incredibly comfortable. The staff are also incredibly nice. We would love to stay here after our Camino, but they are fully booked. Understandable.

We had a brilliant time in this hotel. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable, excellent location and the staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. |As a musician I just loved the whole music theme and enjoyed playing the grand piano! |I’ve recommended the hotel to several friends and hope to be back some day.

This is my third stay at the hotel. Stayed in the hotel for 4 nights on this latest trip. Very comfortable room, clean, great location in a lovely part of Porto. The staff are wonderful and couldn't do enough for us. Shout out to Diogo and Theresa for their help and always a smile. Highly recommend.

The hotel has some clear positives: the location is very convenient, close to the Mercado Bom Sucesso, good restaurants, and relatively easy parking, including a limited number of spaces directly below the hotel. However, our stay was disappointing. The check-in process was slower than expected, and the room was not ready at 2 pm as originally promised. The bathroom design was also quite cumbersome and not very practical. The biggest issue, however, was the lack of proper air conditioning in the room. The hotel changed our room, but the problem continued, and the temperature stayed around 25–26°C throughout the night. This made it very uncomfortable to sleep. Given this experience, I would not recommend this hotel during the summer (we stayed here in early July). In my view, it does not meet the standard expected from a 4-star hotel.

Overall very good experience, friendly staff, nice location, very nice breakfast! My room was ok, but I do have some remarks here: no bin in the bathroom, only in the toilet and under the desk. No power outlets at the desk. These are just minor things. What bothered me most was the shower, which has a lot of black mold spots. This was really not ok. The shower in my friends room had it also, though not as bad. This really should be fixed, because other than this, I really enjoyed my stay, shout out to the great breakfast again and friendly people at reception.
