Disliked: Staff & service
Staff could be more pleasant and welcoming towards non white guests. It's obvious they behave differently towards non white individuals. The gentleman at the front didn't even bother to help me with bags or door when I was checking out and getting into a taxi.. didn't expect it from a Ronald owned hotel.

Treat yourself to a palace stay!!

Wow!!! This old Palace turned hotel is amazing!!! The service was above first class in all areas. Property was lovely. Breakfast was huge and delicious. We did order a late afternoon meal at the bar area because the restaurant didn’t open til 7:30. we ordered hamburger with fries but it came with chips and we ordered the salad with out chicken. They sent to chicken which was very dry. Loved to walk along the water. We took a 1/2 day private tour of Porto highlights which was excellent
View from the water.
The rooms are actually in the old factory brick building to the right.
Outdoor sitting area by the river
Be sure to wander around at night.

Loved staying at this very beautiful and elegant hotel. Only area of minor discontent was darkness of the room and being on the first floor proximity to outside (literally 1 foot away,) so had to keep curtains drawn for any semblance of privacy.

Our stay at Pestana Palacio do Freixo

Our stay at this beautiful and historic hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We were delighted to receive a complimentary room upgrade, which made our experience even more special. The room itself was elegant, comfortable, and filled with thoughtful touches that showcased both charm and modern comfort. The food was outstanding—each meal felt carefully prepared and full of flavor, making dining here a true highlight. The amenities throughout the hotel were equally impressive, striking a perfect balance between history and luxury. Every detail, from the décor to the overall atmosphere, added to the sense of staying somewhere truly unique. We left feeling relaxed, cared for, and already planning a return. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and luxurious experience in a historic setting.

This is an attractive hotel a reasonable distance from central Porto. We liked it for the pool area which was quite beautiful and relaxing with a view over the river and one of the bridges. The Luis bridge/old town is a good 45 minute walk away but a fairly easy and cheap Uber (4-7 euro usually). There is not a huge amount immediately nearby but there is a nice riverside walk leading to a few cafe/bars and a good pizzeria. The staff were very good and helpful. Room size was decent in a superior double with room for an extra rollout bed for our child and still space to move about and sit on the sofa. Our 4th floor room had a lovely river view. Breakfast could be very overcrowded at times which was the only real negative.
