    We had a bit of a problem with the reservation but that was resolved very nicely. The rooms with the river view are amazing and you are right in the heart of the city.

    It is really expensive. I was there for a special occasion - my husband’s 80th birthday so do not regret the cost but it’ll take me to his 90th to save up for another visit!

    So welcoming & friendly from the minute we arrived. The most stunning room I’ve ever been in - views over the river and the bridge, even from the toilet! It was always a delight to come back to. The location of the hotel could not be better. Comfortable bed and easy chairs. Big windows which really shut out the outside bustle when you wanted to. Breakfast was superb - anything you could possibly want and all of excellent quality. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and were always bright and friendly. Lovely people. This goes for reception staff too. A stunning hotel.

    There is impossible to get to the hotel entrance by car. Therefore you should park your car in far public parking (it is not so cheap), then bring suitcases about 500 m to the hotel

    When we arrived at Pestana Vintage Hotel Porto, we were offered a glass of Port which Porto is known for. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Adriana even accompanied us to our room, and showed us the way around the hotel to get to the RIBS restaurant. Thank you Adriana! We were pleasantly surprised when we got to our room and found a lovely welcoming note from Daniel Peneina, the Duty Manager, and a box of their famous Pasteis de Nata. We enjoyed that. Thank you Daniel! The room was a pleasant size, and the beds were large, comfortable and the sheets very soothing. They had complete amenities ... toiletries, coffee, tea, with coffee machine and water kettle, and gave free bottled water every day. Even the lady who turned down the beds and left chocolates for us, was very pleasant and respectful. We had dinner at the RIBS restaurant the first evening and truly enjoyed the Entrecote and the very flavorful rice which was like a risotto. The hotel is on the Ribeira side and located right across the River Douro. It is a perfect place to be if you want to be in the center of activities and do not mind the hustle and bustle outside the hotel.

    Only downside was the outdoor/terrace bar. Getting service and drinks in the evening took forever and they clearly were understaffed both in terms of waiters and bartenders.

    Breakfast was wonderful. Our room was upgarded to a full river view. Staff across the hotel were friendly and helpful.

    The bathroom. It was a death trap. Tub too high to safely step into. Tub floor a complete slip & fall hazard. No discernible tape in the bottom of the tub. No handles on the inside of the tub/shower. Absolutely. Unsafe. I went three days without a shower.

    The location was outstanding.

    The meat restaurant at night was very disappointing. Already in the early evening two types of meat that we chose were finished and for dishes we waited for almost an hour and a half without any apology or consideration from the staff before we complained about it

    A lovely place, stuff. And great breakfast.

    Despite being adequate the Breakfast buffet was a bit disjointed but our main concern was the staff who all seemed totally aloof and seemed to have no intention of communicating with their guests! Most of our time each morning was spent trying to catch the attention of one of the waiting staff! This applied generally to the bar staff as well.

    The hotel's location is outstanding...
