OK so we arrived very early and the whole of the front and one side of the hotel is surrounded by construction for the new metro. I really feel for the staff but they were handling it well. We did have to wait a long time to check in but that was because they wanted to give us a room away from the building work. The junior suite was great and the welcome was fab. Breakfast was stunning and the staff were adorable.
In the heart of Porto, our 4 star hotel is ideal for discovering the heritage and gastronomy of this beautiful city. What could be better than staying in a new hotel with many services: breakfast, snack bar, gym, swimming pool and terrace. All the main attractions are nearby: UNESCO-listed old town, the famous Luis I Bridge, the Clerigos Tower and the Port Wine Cellars. We are waiting for you.

Environment: City center! very convenient! There is a small garden in the breakfast area, which is so comfortable
Service: The service is so-so. I won’t help with luggage.
Hygiene: Hygiene is relatively good, and the overall atmosphere is retro style

This hotel is in an excellent location, with a pedestrian street to the north, the cathedral and Douro River to the south, and Livraria Lello to the west. It is only a 5-minute walk from the train station, the most beautiful McDonald's, and the most beautiful cafe. It can be said to be the focal point of Porto. The hotel's interior is dark and simple, but if you look closely, you will find designs everywhere. It can be considered a design hotel. The windows are especially interesting. One tip: there are no curtains. The front desk and the bicycle-themed lobby bar are full of humor. The room is not big, but the bathroom is large, which is also a very modern and practical concept. There is an old restaurant downstairs in the adjacent hotel, where you can enjoy Portuguese breakfast, French girl, Befana, and extremely sweet desserts. Although the taste is a bit strong, it is very typical and worth a try.

Funny, on my way to the hotel, I passed a Catalonia Hotel whochbwas down the block. I almost had 2nd thoughts of staying at Premium not knowing what to expect. Although I only stayed for 1 night, it was a super stay. My friend and I arrived early and had the warmest greeting from the front desk. Cleiton R and Carolina B. They had such great smiles we instantly felt at home. Although the room was not ready since it was only 11am, we asked to store our luggage and they did without hesitation. Cleiton, since he knew it was our 1st time in Porto, took out a map and circled many places for us possibly to visit. We actually went to many of the places he had circled. We came back after 2pm because we purchased a few items and since we had a tour beginning at 3pm. When we came back Carolina informed us our room was ready. The room was decently spacious and modern. The bathroom was really nice. We freshened up quickly and both Cleiton and Carolina were there and let us know of the happy hour the hotel has between 4 and 6pm. Unfortunately we were not going to be back in tume, but they also let us know about the rooftop. We came back from our Port Wine excursion and we stopped at the rooftop. It was empty at the tune but met a young Argentinian man who he and I clicked right away. Ended up speaking to him for quite a few mins. He gave us restaurant suggestions in the area and we went to one of them and it went perfectly. The next day, as we checked out, we saw Cleiton and Carolina again and they expedited our check out flawlessly. I do have to mention the 2 people on the bight shift were also very nice!! We also got a bar of chocolate as a goodbye present. I rarely give out 5 stars, but everything worked out so well, I had to give one to Premium. I would happily stay at a Premium Hotel again!!!

Stayed here for 7 nights and was in 3 different rooms. Good News: Staff is great, especially Joanna and Marina (?) at front desk, and Paulo (?) and other bellman Overall decor is dated and needs refurbishing. Comments re: rooms… Room 234: Larger and very quiet with robe/slippers. Headboard is torn. Bathroom door in the way of toilet & bidet; need to close door to access. … Rm 232: Corner Suite. Beautiful but TOO NOISY. Despite wearing earplugs, closing double-paned windows + lowering electronic blackout shades outside bedroom window, still had trouble sleeping due to street noise (trucks, motorcycles, etc). Noise through evening and early morning hours when bins picked up. Windows need another layer to soundproof… Room 411: New side of hotel, VERY small room; no slippers/robe offered, better layout of bathroom. No view but very quiet. Bad news: For the amount charged per room (almost €200/night or more) + standard hotel tries to maintain, complimentary coffee and water should be available every day of stay, not just day #1. Beautiful view and good food from rooftop bar but VERY SLOW service. Tips: Location is by river so about 1-2 miles from city center which is uphill from hotel. Other option is to use Uber. Tram stop and supermarket conveniently located within 1-2 blocks of hotel. Can take tram toward Dom Luis Bridge to check out restaurants with great river views: Bacalhau (very small and don’t take reservations) or Vinhas d’Alho restaurant next door, takes reservations and has more outdoor seats. Overall: Wonderful, helpful and accommodating staff in lovely location but you could find better value other places, like the many ”AL” accommodations (private apartments similar to Airbnb).

Having had to leave our previous 'hotel' as it was so horrendous we arrived here where we were greeted with very friendly staff and a warm lobby. They sorted us a room and must have given us a really nice room following our bad experience as we were on the 6th floor at the back with a lovely view of the city. The room itself was really quite large and the bed was extremely comfortable. We slept so well! There was a TV, free wifi, AC/heating and a really nice bathroom. The bar/room service menus were reasonably priced and the staff had great knowledge of the city. The hotel itself is about a 5/10 minute walk from the main station you arrive in to from the airport which was really handy for our early journey on our final day. Would stay here again if I went back to Porto!

The location is convenient, and it is convenient to take a taxi to various attractions and restaurants (Taxi is very cheap in Portugal). The check-in is fast, the service is very good, and the room is very clean and comfortable, because there are three single beds in the triple room, if there are three people, it will be better than only A room with a double bed or an extra bed is much more comfortable. The only small downside is that the sound insulation is not particularly good.

Outstanding
This is the BEST hostel I’ve stayed in, would honestly stay here over a Hilton. I booked a double private room with breakfast and was upgraded to a family room - despite not needing the extra bed, it was nice to have the extra space and not feeling cramped. The staff were amazing and couldn’t do anymore to assist me in anyway. There was an ample choice of options at breakfast, with the usual stuff found in a continental buffet. I must say the food was delicious! I also dined at the restaurant in the evening which was also delicious and VERY well priced - €12 for a meal and a drink! The room was very spacious, especially as I was a solo traveller. The bathroom was well maintained and the entire room was CLEAN! Along with very comfortable beds and passable pillows (but I am fussy with pillows). The location was perfect! Just 10-15 minutes from Sao Bento and around the corner from the river. I must say I did feel EXTREMELY SAFE both in the hotel and in Porto in general. Why would I stay here over a Hilton? For the price I paid, it was extremely well value and I must say I had a 5* experience here.
GGuest UserLast year I had the most wonderful stay at Menina Colina, and was excited to return. Unfortunately I now wish I had reserved elsewhere, as it has been nothing but a disappointment.
Prices are so much higher than a year ago, but I thought I got what was a good deal on the garden room. Turns out it is greatly overpriced for what is offered, as it has none of the exquisite design or attention to detail that the interior rooms have. It also seems to be neglected in terms of maintenance. The coffee machine was leaking, and after reporting it, it was made out to be my fault as I was using it incorrectly. I had to physically show a member of staff the leaked water for them to agree to replace it. I was really annoyed that they felt that they needed to demonstrate to me how it works rather than just replacing it immediately.
The next disappointment was that the room was initially not serviced at all, and no explanation was given. When you are paying $165 for a mediocre room (not even including breakfast), one would at the very least expect the bins to be emptied.
The bathroom also had a terrible smell that permeated the room, and mosquitoes were a problem too.
Management did offer me lunch or attendance of their fado show, but none of these arrangements fitted into my busy programme. I thought a small financial compensation would have made more sense. That did not happen, and nothing further was mentioned or discussed on check-out.
The final issue was the online check-out which they require. When I tried to complete it, my bill was for my entire stay, although 3 of the 4 nights had already been paid months in advance. So my conclusion is unfortunately that Menina Colina’s standards have dropped significantly, and that it is overpriced for the lack of attention to detail that is evident in several areas.
GGuest UserWow- what a great location and eclectic hotel. Staff was very welcoming, happy, energetic and went out of their way to offer directions and recommendations to restaurants. Clean room, crisp sheets, well maintained. The hotel itself is right across the street from the Cathedral and is central to so many tourist sites, restaurants and shops. We truly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend this hotel.
GGuest UserOur family reserved 3 rooms and arrived on a very early flight . Jose was kind enough to get 1 of our rooms ready within an hour so we could at least wash up, rest for a bit, and refresh before going out for the day. He continued to take care of us throughout our stay with anything we needed, while being extremely kind and personal. He is an excellent representative of the quality and care the hotel offers. We also liked the ambiance of the hotel. It was nicely lit and decorated in a fun, eclectic, and relaxing fashion. Our room rate included the breakfast which was an amazing spread with much variety, highly recommend. Location was central, easy walking distance everywhere. Small disappoin**ent was lack of gym. I know we walk around alot but it would’ve nice to have the option as my husband and son like to exercise quite a bit. In addition, the TV lounge room which can be nice for teenagers/kids to use while waiting for our rooms to be ready was rather plain in terms of interior design, just gray concrete walls, as opposed to the interesting and colorful designs of the rest of the hotel. This is just an observation, I would definitely recommend this hotel and would come back again.
If you fancy a little more space during your stay in Porto than a standard hotel room then this is the place for you. Our apartment was fabulous with everything you could need during your stay including a lovely private patio to enjoy the weather with a glass of wine after a day of exploring the city. The communication with the My Story team was brilliant, who were hands on for whatever was needed.
AAnonymous UserThe whole city is relatively old, and the modern hotel is more prominent. It is relatively close to the train station, and it takes 12 minutes to walk. There are not many restaurants around, and there is a pizzeria next to it that tastes good. Overall, Portugal has the lowest consumption in Western Europe.
RR_TWThe room is simple but the space is quite large, the location is a bit biased but it is a quiet area. There is a beautiful outdoor atrium, shared with the same brand hotel next door. When I checked in that day, I may just meet many people when I arrive at the same time. There is only one front desk brother service that tests everyone's patience. After all, even the Italians behind can't stand it (ha). Other words, there is a very warm little brother at breakfast who will greet you. The overall atmosphere is good. The people living here are quite special. Many retirees and many young people like backpackers.
XXIAOYUANWhat a royal style! I really like the interior design and the elevator is so interesting! Great location, walking distance to main attractions. Breakfast is good too! There is a complimentary tasting of Porto grape liqueur at the front desk and a lounge with coffee and other refreshments.
GGuest UserParfait! Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans cet hôtel, tout était très bien. La gentillesse de l'accueil à notre arrivée, la personne se plie en 4 pour nous faire comprendre tout, est réellement à notre écoute et veut nous aider. La réception ne se trouve pas au même endroit, à quelques rues seulement. Arrivé à l'appartement, un digicode nous permet de rentrer dans l'immeuble, puis une fois à l'intérieur, une boîte à clefs avec un autre code permet de récupérer les clefs du logement. L'appartement était parfait. Propre, agréable, joli, j'ai beaucoup aimé les boiseries. Une partie nuit, une partie jour avec salon salle à manger TV et cuisinette avec micro-onde, bouilloire, cafetière Krups à dosettes. Des couverts et de quoi manger y figurent également, ainsi qu'un mini réfrigérateur. Salle de bain avec grande douche et meuble où déposer ses affaires, WC séparés avec fenêtre. Énorme baie vitrée. Chambre avec placard suffisamment grand. Parquet partout. Le ménage a été très bien fait, je dirais même parfait par rapport à certains lieux parfois même 3 ou 4 étoiles visites parfois !les petites attentions de la femme de ménage à nous plier les serviettes joliment étaient très agréables. Dès que vous avez besoin de qqch, vous demandez et ils y répondent immédiatement. Le petit déjeuner, lorsque vous l'avez demandée, est déposé devant votre porte de chambre le matin de bonne heure, et se compose de tout le nécessaire ( jus d'orange, fruits, sachet de thé ou dosette de chocolat ou de café), croissant ou petit gâteau, 2 petits pains, confiture, beurre, sucre, yaourt, petite brique de lait. Nous avons passé un séjour plus qu'agréable à l'intérieur de cet appartement. Le seul moins pourrait être la climatisation qui faisait office de chauffage également donc, à l'époque de notre visite, qui chauffe bien la chambre mais a du mal à chauffer l'autre pièce de par la disposition de l'appartement, mais cela ne nous a paS gêné plus que ça et n'entâche en rien notre expériences ultra positive dans cet apparthotel. Nous les remercions vivement.
GGuest UserI arrived at the hotel on 20 November 2022 for a 5 night stay. The stay was business related and with so many hotels to choose from, I decided to go with the Porto Palacio. What an excellent choice! The hotel is absolutely brilliant - I cannot find a fault. Check-in was very smooth and on arrival to the room - wow - very modern, crisp clean sheets on the bed and a spacious room. In terms of food, the Breakfast experience was the best part of the stay for me. I have stayed in many hotels around the world - both on a personal basis and a business basis - I can honestly say that the breakfast staff at the Porto Palacio are the best I've ever come across. On arrival, I was seated quickly. On Day 1, the staff members memorised what I had that cannot be chosen by the buffet - for example, a tea and two plates (as I like two plates) - on Days 2 and for the rest of the trip, I didn't even need to ask. I was called by my Title and Surname on arrival. The whole experience was brilliant. I would like to mention a lady called Rosa and another lady (they both greet staff members at the door) - their hospitality skills are great and they are always smiling - nothing is too much for them. I didn't eat at the restaurant in the evening but had room service as personally, I like to relax after a day at the office. The food was of good quality and was tasty and piping hot. I used the gym during my stay - the gym is open to members of the public, therefore is not your usual hotel gym. It's huge - there are loads of machines and I was never waiting for someone to finish using something. Staff members are friendly. All in all - a brilliant stay and is a genuine 5 star hotel! I will return to the Porto Palacio both on a business basis and also on a personal basis - Porto looks like a great city! It's a shame that I didn't have time to look around as I had a busy schedule but I will certainly be back! Thank you!!
