The rooms were spacious and clean. Desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Fine breakfast selection. Pool maybe a bit small but plenty of loungers etc. Nice bar. Did not appear to be a restaurant for an evening meal but this was not a problem for us. A fine hotel which met all of our expectations.

Lovely hotel away from the town, at the river mouth. Very comfortable room and bathroom. Nice rooftop snack bar with a lovely view towards the ocean. There are few restaurants around. The area is perfect for walks along the river or the ocean. I would recommend it to those who want to stay away from the busy area.

This was a very clean and safe place to stay. The staff was helpful with arranging transportation to the airport. The only bad thing was the garage. Difficult to enter.

Great spot to stay with access to all Foz do Douro has to offer, and easy access to central Porto. Breakfast was fresh and had a lot of options. Rooms were small but comfortable with nicely updated bathrooms.

Very good value. Lovely hotel in superb location by the River. Friendly and polite reception staff. Room is small but very clean and comfortable. The only disappointment was the breakfast, no service from waiter, rotten fruit, old scrambled egg and disappointing Pastel de Nata. Better to go out for breakfast at a cafe.
