First, there is massive construction in front of the hotel that should have been finished last year but the new completion date is TBD. Thankfully, our room faced the back of the hotel, looking out into an interior apartment complex, so we didn't have to deal with the early-hour jackhammering. But if I had shelled out some serious money for the Intercontinental brand and a pretty view of Praça da Liberdade, Porto's main square, and was just looking out at a construction lot covered in tarp, I'd be pretty disappointed. Service here was iffy. When we got to the hotel, the bellboy took our bags and, since the concierge was busy, pointed us to some empty seats nearby; I assumed we'd then be next. Then a line starts forming for people waiting to check in as we're sitting there before we finally realize we need to be standing in the line. We never got much of a "Good morning" or "Have a nice day" from the bellboys, only a very diffident nod. We had a hotel credit and used it at the bar; food was exceptionally mediocre and, par for the course, extremely expensive. Two redeeming points for the hotel: 1. The breakfast buffet was pretty good, with several options and fresh fruit. Still doesn't hold a candle to the legendary hotel buffets in Asia. 2. The location was stellar, easy walking distance to most tourist attractions and the bridges in Porto. That's probably what drives the price up. Wouldn't stay here again.

The hotel arranged parking for us as we had a rental car since we came from Lisbon to Braga and then Porto. The parking was included in our price and the lot was just a short walk from the hotel. We had a small suite as we had three adults in the room. It was fairly large, especially by European standards and very nice. The room was extremely quiet. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom spacious with white marble. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. There is a little cafe attached to the lobby that is very pleasant and my daughter and I had a nice breakfast there during our visit. The A Brasileira might not be the least expensive option in porto but I felt for the location and quality it was worth it,

One of the hotels we stayed at was NH Porto Batalha. Conveniently located to much that Porto has to offer, I'd stay here again on a next visit.

The breakfast spread offered variety and the good was pretty good. We had dinner one night in the hotel restaurant and dinner was also good.

We were able to walk everywhere in just a few minutes. It is located a little off the beaten path which made it really quiet and relaxing. We stayed down by the river front and across the river most of the time. If you want to go up into the city center, I recommend taking the funicular or uber if you don't want to walk up a huge flight of stairs. The walk to the city center is straight up the entire time but it was fine because we took a break at a coffee shop. This hotel has a beautiful rooftop bar with a really pretty and quiet view of the river. Our room was clean and the tile accents were beautiful. The front desk and bar staff were really friendly and everyone spoke English. If we go back to Porto, we would definitely stay here again.

The food at breakfast was fantastic. A huge variety of wonderful dishes to choose from and the best omelet bar. Speaking of bars we opted for dinner a few nights in the magical bar with a wonderful pianist and captivating night view of Porto and the Bar staff went above and beyond to make our experience picture perfect.

This is significant when dealing with the hill down to the hotel with luggage and more importantly UP! The front desk people were great. So helpful with information and friendly. Our room was a bit small. Everything we needed was there and we were comfortable with an alley-view room. Little did we know, said alley becomes quite the culinary scene after 8;30 at night. We loved being greeted with port on arrival. The breakfast buffet was what made our stay so memorable. They had everything from bakery items to standard fare to specialty items cooked to order to a charcuterie room that i was totally enamored with. Glad we found out about the mimosas on our last day as we would have started on them every morning. I would definitely stay here again and recommend the place. Side note* sunset view of the Douro from their upstairs balcony at Vinology is not to be missed. Bring your patience and don't go hungry. This spot is a missed opportunity for them- It could be a fabulous destination in itself. The other food outlet Heritage Bar was meh too so only 4 star rating.

AC doesn't work well, so you are warned for the summer months. Room was spacious, super clean and very comfortable. Not as many ammenities as other hotels, but you do get the robe and slippers and toiletries (attached to the wall). Not too shabby. The staff for the most part are GREAT. On our first day some really couldn't answer questions/seemed confused and had issues with both English and Spanish, but we got through it. They try hard, and that is worth something. The lobby is small and can get crowded quickly. And now Bicicleta - the most unfriendly, obnoxious and unhelpful group of people I have met in Portugal or in most places. ABSOLUTELY THE PITS. Starting with Mr. Grumpy bouncer with an idiot attitude that is like a drill Sargeant when it came to checking on people not walking in from the streets on their way to the CROWDED breakfast room. (with bfast included in your price I can understand their concerns, but this guy was a bully). Most of the staff have a godforsaken look on their unfriendly faces, so if you are just wandering in to look around, expect to be inspected from head to toe and treated like you are a threat to society. NOT FRIENDLY. Breakfast: Where the coffee machine is located creates a mess of a line in front of the hot breakfast buffet area. Food is not bad, but navigating it gets very confusing. And when you add on the most of the staff are simply the worst you will encounter in hospitality, it makes for a mess. KUDOS however to how management handled the power outage. With back up generator, aging adults were able to use the elevator and toilets flushed. COLD shower, but they had power. What didn't manage the situation well was of course Bicicleta, who could only offer salad and didn't think about bread and cheese and cold cuts. Hotel management of the situation was SUPERB. Bicicleta? They should just keep peddaling into another country and leave for good. Have I said they are a dissappointing crew for the most part? All in all, I would still stay here, now that I know my way around town, because the location is great and management works hard to please!
