Top Boavista Hotel Reviews

Cenica Porto Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Overall was a pleasant stay. I had water leaking into my bathroom from the bathroom above me. They were able to fix it but I heard another guest say he had the same issue so I worry it's a problem all over the building. Overall : 8/10 Beds : 8/10 a little soft for me, have down toppers and very soft pillows. Not great for side sleepers. Towels: 9/10 really large Bathroom lighting: 7/10 Despite the issues I liked the hotel and would stay here again."

Crowne Plaza Porto by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best hotel and staff that we have experienced in Portugal this year. The staff made the stay amazing, the service was 5 star. The rooms were big, clean and lovely. Comfy beds and a nice shower and bathroom. We stayed multiple nights and even went back again on our way to another adventure. The food was wonderful and the breakfast was the best I’ve ever had. The selections were amazing and lots of fresh fruit. The bar was nice and quiet, watched lots of soccer and had amazing food there as well. My son says the best Caesar salad he’s ever had and the Angus burger is a must. Wonderful service and hospitality."

The Social Hub Porto

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this hotel is perfect. The staff, cleanliness, location, safety features. I would recommend The Social Hub to anyone and everyone of all ages. Me and my 2 girl friends could not have felt safer traveling there. It checks every box in terms of what you're looking for when traveling. Perfect place!"
