Great Stay in Porto

It was an excellent location for us in terms of seeing and doing what we wished to do. The staff was very accommodating and even provided a boxed breakfast for us on a morning that we joined an early tour group. Breakfast was delicious at the hotel.If you like a small hotel with great views of the river and a welcoming staff then this is the place ! A word of advice...pack lightly unless you accept a transfer because some Ubers and taxi's cannot pull up to the door.
lovely view

Delicious and Hospitable but... be ready for NOISE

Terrific hospitality. The only downside was it is LOUD LOUD LOUD nearly all waking hours. I wish I knew this. I came for the restaurant -- which I LOVED -- but wish I had stayed somewhere quieter.

The Gran Cruz House went beyond my expectations. The staff was helpful and friendly. The room decor was attractive and authentic, overlooking the river. The breakfast was elegant and delicious. It was a lovely two days in the heart of Porto.

Stunning

Fantastically helpful staff, cute hidden lobby, and GLORIOUS rooms! I cannot believe this wasn't triple the price. I will be recommending it and staying again, on a longer trip.
Bedroom is large, with great materials and windows that open easily.
Bathroom is bigger than mine at home! The towels are INSANE. I own Abyss towels, and these are seriously close, something I've NEVER experienced in a hotel.

Lovely boutique hotel situated on the riverfront in Ribeira. Easy walking access to all attractions and right in the centre of all restaurants and bars. Friendly helpful staff and comfortable and spotlessly clean throughout. It has a small restaurant with balcony and views over the river great menu for evenings. Couldn’t fault this hotel we will be back.

The white room is beautiful and has beautiful views of the river. Very clean, well maintained, excellent staff. We left super early to catch our flight, and they surprised us with a to-go breakfast box from the restaurant. Very nice detail and came in handy!
