I was stunned to learn that there is no Internet in the rooms. The hotel has plenty of old-fashioned charm and should stay that way. But since it accepted electricity, it could also accept Internet in the rooms.

Beautiful and elegant antique hotel. Everything they kept original. It is like you are walking on a 1930 movie. Very elegant and charming. The elevator is very unique and gives you the vintage feeling of the time. Although, I guess… even the carpet is original… this vintage hotel is so wonderful, but they do need new carpets asap (the old carpet gives the hotel a cheap, weird vibe). They need to figure out how to incorporate a new carpet with an antique style. Bedroom was ok beautiful decorated with vintage furniture, bed was very comfortable. They do not have a huge balcony, but quite nice to have the Mondego River view (keep in mind that the view in the pictures is better, in the real life view, the hotel has plenty of bus stops in front of it, and unfortunately they were having construction when we were there - noisy and dusty). Breakfast was poor in quality and options; fruits were not cut; coffee was terrible, not a gluten free friendly place. Hotel is very close to many coffee shops, bars, restaurants, and pharmacies. Overall this is a nice vintage hotel budget friendly in a very central location for travelers who are visiting the city for a couple days.

Old World Charm

If your looking for modern conveniences this is not the hotel for you, but if you want 1920s charm, this is 5*. No fridge, coffee, satellite TV, but great charm.and a pleasant breakfast. Very friendly staff, old carpets and I think it's great.

Stayed at 5 hotels during my trip in Portugal and this one is by far the worst hotel. Pros: - Nice receptionist that helped us refill our water in the middle of the night - Cool elevator - Free breakfast and was actually decent. Had drinks, eggs, and lots of protein choices Cons: - Very run down and old building/room - Water pressure was super weak - Horrible wifi connection - Musty carpets Would not stay again personally

Hard bed!

100+ year old hotel that they have tried to preserve close to it’s original character. Obviously it wont have modern features and that’s fine with me. I only gave this three stars not because of the age but because of the hardness of the bed and issues with the cooling/fan. Cooling issues were resolved quickly (thank you!). Bed hardness was not (until I could get back to my chiropractor). The breakfast was very nice (European), but it was the same every day. Some variety would be nice. Staff were mostly friendly and accommodating.
