Best Hotels near Alma Viva, Porto

Isabella was very helpful in providing information for point of interest within cities. The hotel location is close to the Porto bar and entertainment scene. Hotel is centrally located to many of the POI within the city. The room is squeaky clean and nice comfortable bed. TV have many international channels including CCTV and English movie channels. Breakfast is available at 10 Euros but we didn't took the option as there are many breakfast outlets in Porto.

Our main issue with our stay was the staff. They were unengaged and uninterested in the guests. All of the staff were constantly hanging out on the sofas, watching Love is Blind Brazil on the flatscreen. They didn’t give off an inviting atmosphere, and the noise from the TV made it difficult to chill out or work in the common areas. Don’t stay here if you are a digital nomad! There’s no introduction to the stay. No information about walking tours, pub crawls, renting towels, nearest laundromat or breakfast and dinner. Breakfast cost 3,5€ and consisted of two hard buns and some fruit with yogurt. The staff seemed annoyed with preparing it. The hostel is pretty clean in general. The men’s bathroom tho, is a whole other story. During our stay the guests were mainly men, and their bathroom was only cleaned once a day. It left it in a condition consisting of toilet paper on the floor, sticky floor, walls and puke on the toilet and everything was just perpetually wet or moist. The shower couldn’t drain properly and there were mould in the corners and windows.

New hostel w perfect position. It’s placed in the central so u don’t need to buy ticket for public transport. U can walk from the hostel to many places to visit They also nice and support if u need any help I will come back here if I go to Porto again. XD

It's a bit of a walk up a rocky slope from the train station, but it's close, about 10 to 12 minutes away. If the carrier is heavy, it may be a bit difficult. It's about 5 to 10 minutes away from major hot spots, and it's small and clean. The wooden floor in the room and the tile floor in the bathroom were clean and nice to the touch, so I walked around barefoot. I was very tired at the end of the trip, but I quickly felt relieved after three warm showers. The welcome drink and homemade crepes for breakfast were also fun. The friendly female staff member gave me some recipes and gave my son a thumbs up, saying he looked like a professional chef. The bright smiles and greetings of the counter and restaurant staff are also impressive. It was a double room, and there was an extra bed similar to a sofa near the entrance, so I used it as both a bed and a sofa. I'm not sensitive to sound, so I think I could hear the sound of wheels rolling on the stone floor and the sound of rain all night long. I found this place in a hurry while traveling, and it was the cheapest with breakfast included, so I was most satisfied with the accommodations I stayed for 13 days. I've never written a review before, so I'm writing this review~

When we arrived we did the paperwork and payment quickly, then we saw the room, we stayed in a room with bunk beds, a double bed, very decent and clean. Since we were going to do tourism, we asked at the hostel itself for places to see, they very kindly told us where we could go and gave us a map. That night we also asked where we could go out for drinks and were told several options. We didn't get to eat anything there, but everything looked very good. 100% recommended

I am particularly satisfied with this hotel, although the space is a little smaller, but the location is very good, it is very convenient to go to the surrounding attractions, if you come back next time, you will choose this hotel again.

We stayed at this hotel on a bed and breakfast basis for 7 nights. The hotel was modern and clean, staff were very helpful. The room was cleaned daily and products restocked. The location was perfect for us as situated close to motorway. We had a hire car for the week so the hotel car park was great for us. Burger King was next door so handy if wanted a quick coffee day or night. The hotel does have a bar. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, alongside a full continental selection. I recommend this hotel, we would certainly stay there again.

Great location close to the Metro, although a bit noisy as there is construction outside and a barking next door. The rooms are tiny with minimal amenities. This is not a 4 star hotel as our package promised. Just a heads up, they charge you for extra coffee pods. Staff here is professional and very helpful-they wear many hats! They helped us book an amazing tour. Walking distance to shopping, an amazing indoor food court, and grocery stores. The breakfast room is very nice, and has good selections.

I may as well start my review with the only negative I could find. This was the smoking area directly outside the hotel entrance. So as soon as you open the door to go in cigarette smoke also went in. And now the good parts without a doubt, the hotels, biggest attribute are the staff. Our week started with a very warm welcome reception from a young man who was very polite and very helpful. Unfortunately, I have forgotten his name. But I guess that doesn’t really matter as it is a recurring theme during our entire stay . One young man who needs a special mention who works behind the bar, told me he was only 20 years of age, which I didn’t believe as he is one of the most honest, trustworthy and sincerest of persons I have the fortune to meet. It just goes to show that not all young people have attitude . Now I have to say that everybody who works behind the bar was fantastic and polite. so on behalf of my wife and I would like to thank you all. But Andre Martins you are a superstar from my heart you deserve a pat on the back and a promotion. One day my friend I’m sure you will be manager. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble. The management should be very proud. The room was fantastic overlooking the river was clean and tidy with plenty of room. On occasions we ate at the hotel and every time wife was running out of wine someone came to pour some from her bottle. Her exact words were she felt like a princess it was nice that staff mad us both feel very special. The food was very nice and we both would recommend. In due course we shall return to the hotel as it was well situated. Thank you to all an absolutely fantastic start to our tour of Portugal.
