Nouvel hôtel de luxe à proximité de Porto et son aéroport (20 min). La renovation de cet ancien couvent chargé d histoire est d une finesse absolue. Les chambres sont magnifiques. Mention spécial pour le spa Sysley incroyable. Enfin le grand point positif est le personnel qui se met en 4 pour répondre à toutes vos solicitations. Un grand merci à la manageuse de nous avoir accompagné durant notre séjour. Un hôtel de luxe à découvrir sans hésiter.
