Porta Nobre Boutique Hotel by Aspasios

It was a very nice hotel, room was really good. And they had a nice little swimming pool on the roof. Unfortnatly the bar was closed, we fixed that by buying some water and chips and took the port from our room.👌

This hotel is located in the tourist center of Porto, near the Douro River. First of all, the front desk staff were wonderful. They were very friendly and attentive. They also always spoke to us when we entered and left the room. The room was very spacious, with a queen-size bed and a sofa large enough to lie down on. It was a wonderful hotel.

Charming hotel with tasteful renovation of a historic building. Rooms were spotless, comfortable, well appointed and staff friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommended.

We loved our stay! it was so comfortable and stylish. The pool area was so beautiful. We were able to walk to restaurants and shops. Perfect place to stay.

Very Nice Stay Great location, near to all the sites. On the river, bike hire next door which was useful. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Nice big comfortable bed. Perfect for a weekend couple break.

Overall, my husband and I had a terrific stay at Porta Cobra, 6 days in total in beginning of August. + Nice location + Extremely friendly reception staff + Great large apartments with a nice kitchen and large bathroom + Perfect cleaning every day + Beautiful view (rooms with city view) + Nice small pool area In general we felt very welcome and appreciated and we will definitely recommend the hotel, but we will also mention a few points for improvement: – Although the rooms are protected from street noise, they are very noisy towards the hallway and every day we were woken up by other residents or the cleaning service team passing the apartment. – We experienced quite a bad smell from the drain in the bathroom. – Air conditioning was impossible to fine-tune (either max cold or we had to turn it off – not ideal in the summer heat) – The elderly gentleman who managed the pool area was initially very hostile and was telling us off like little children when we just arrived: In all calmness we tried to turn two free-standing sun beds so they faced the sun. When he noticed, he immediately rushed towards us, waving his hands dramatically and gave us a proper scolding as if we were ravaging the place. (FYI. We are a calm couple in our early thirties so it was very uncalled for.... and in totalt contrast to the attitude from the rest of the staff).
