Such a beautiful hotel. They make you feel so special. This hotel is very elegant and you are treated like royalty. The breakfast was amazing as was the dinner we had in the hotel restaurant.

Very old building. Did not like the decor

Overbooked and under staffed. Exterior Architecture is beautiful, some of the interior especially the rooms are very outdated. Stay in the main part of the hotel may be a bit better. The shower was disappointing, low pressure and hard to get your whole body under the head. No conditioner provided.

It is a great hotel. It is clean and quiet, with a great breakfast, nice rooms, and professional staff. The best thing about it is the building itself and the surroundings. It's hard to believe such a beautiful place exists.

We chose in hotel because of the pool and free parking. When we arrived we were greeted at the door and offered a glass of complimentary port wine. Our stay was great. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The pool was excellent. We had beautiful dinner at the restaurant across the street. We walked over to the nearest public beach and stumbled upon a local snack shop. (5 minute walk to the left of the hotel on the walkway- not walking towards Porto) Had some beers and snacks. Delicious. We enjoyed our stay.

The building where the hotel is located is very beautiful but the service is not up to the standard of ‘leading hotels of the world.’ I have stayed in many and it is not even close. We got our room cleaned only at 4 pm, staff did not leave us filtered water for the coffee. Breakfast was a bit of a mess. Service at the bar was slow, the tables were dirty and overall staff did not seem to care. At the pool at some point there were no towels and the service lacked attention to detail.

What a dreamy place! The only bad thing was only spending one night at this gorgeous location!
The palace is beautiful, well maintained, and the staff is friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We arrived late and they accommodated us in the amazing restaurant. The food was superb and the exquisite service was unforgettable. Sebastiao, Rita Araujo, and Jose Almeida took care of us and made us feel so very special.
The rooms are large and beautifully decorated. There were personal touches like a bottle of Porto and a handwritten note waiting for us.
Breakfast was delicious and was only made better by the complementary specialty coffee drinks. Incredible stay! Would love to come back one day.

Our room was large and very comfortable. The elevated, corner view provided splendid views of the river and the adjacent palace.

Gorgeous historical home turned luxury hotel. Attentive staff; massive, high quality breakfast buffet; free shuttle to town (although it was always full or not going when we needed to. But Uber to town is 4-5 Euros (meter taxi was double, so do the Uber). Five minute drive to charming Porto’s historical city center. Fall in love with Porto and the Palacio do Freixo!

The check in was a bit confusing.
There were no staff at the pool or service at all at the pool. It was a trek to the bar and tiu had to carry your drinks on a tray down stairs and in the lift !!
Mojito was not right, not enough sugar or lime.
Pillows in the bedroom were too big and we couldn't get the tv to work.
There seemed to be an absence of staff.
Not great coffee at breakfast, it tasted like nescafe.

Hotel was beautiful we had a room facing the river, staff was great. Only issue same as most the AC went off around 11 pm luckily we had 3 windows to open but all over Spain and Portugal it was the same thing.

Unbelievably luxurious stay in this 300 year old building. This was a full 5 star experience for a very reasonable price. I don’t ever stay in hotels this fancy because I don’t want to spend that much and I’m usually not in the hotel, but this was quite a good deal so I took it and it was marvelous. I would have liked to be closer to town, but honestly the view was awesome and Ubers got there in less than 5 minutes ever time. I wish I could have stayed longer. The breakfast, the spa, the work out room, the staff, and the room were all top notch. The property is gorgeous especially if you. want a classic European manor house kind of vibe. Even tho the building is old, the technology was excellent, ordering room service, the WiFi, and the in room system on the tv was all fast and fantastic. I was not aware of this family of hotels but I’m a fan and I’ll look to stay at more of their properties soon!

The hotel and the staff are excellent, my only complaint was with the air conditioning which was not working and the room would get very hot and made it difficult to sleep. The staff tried to do everything possible to accommodate us but the problem could be solved, besides this issue I fully recommend this hotel. The hotel is great, it does make you feel you are in a castle, the staff is magnificent, they really go out of their way to serve you in every way possible.

We had a good stay. We were upgraded to a suite which gave us more space however the location of our room was near a street and parking garage which got noisy overnight. We enjoyed the walk and views along the river. Just over 3km from city centre to walk. The breakfast was excellent staff were friendly and helpful. My only critique is that the mattress was very firm. We noticed on our last day an option to put a cover over the mattress to make it softer. Look in the top of the closet and ask staff to remake your bed when you arrive.

The property has a good view of the river and has good amenities. To reach the main centre either you take a bus or taxi or walk 45 mins by the side of Druro river which is scenic. The property is more for events than for tourists. One set back for the property is that to go to the dining space you may have to take a route outside the property. This can be an issue if its raining or not so good weather.

Beautiful property in a lovely city that is a 4-5 star. However let down by its breakfasts and morning staff. Very poor quality breakfast buffet that often ‘ran out’ and we were only advised on our last day that there was actually a ‘hot’ menu we could order from. Seemed to have there better/different staff on the Friday who actually knew what they were doing. Shame as the hotel itself is stunning.

It's a little far from key tourist attractions, but it's such a great hotel. It was a great stay with antique facilities and excellent service from the staff. Those who want a quiet and comfortable rest will never regret it

Staff at bar and kitchen are very friendly although the food are salty. Staff at housekeeping are a bit lost, forgot to clean the room or came very late when we called to split the bed into two. Breakfast is good. Overall, a pleasant stay.
