Nice hotel, room excellent but balcony not really usable due to large amount of bird droppings. Loved the bar on the 17th floor, nice place to relax after a day exploring Porto. Amazing view. Staff all very friendly and helpful room serviced daily. Porto has many hills, hotel is approx 20mins uphill from river front, manageable but tough after dining etc but plenty of pitstops on the way. Great base to explore Porto from all attractions walkable.
