10/10 Exceptional

Gorgeous, intimate hotel with beautiful appointments. Location is great but, because its in the heart of the tourist section at the river, expect noise at night. Highly recommend having dinner at the hotel.

Beautifully appointed rooms in a location that is in the center of the action. Stunning views from “river view” rooms. Breakfast was a moment to be treasured with incredible service, views, and food. The staff were delightful, knowledgeable, and engaging. Coffee was superb. Can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

We loved everything about the hotel, most of all the service (special shout out to Bruno). The hotel restaurant's host was wonderful. The chef bakes fresh bread, including gluten free options.

Delicious and Hospitable but... be ready for NOISE

Terrific hospitality. The only downside was it is LOUD LOUD LOUD nearly all waking hours. I wish I knew this. I came for the restaurant -- which I LOVED -- but wish I had stayed somewhere quieter.

Perfect Small Boutique Hotel

The Grand Cruz Hotel is simply a delight in the most desirous location, right along the river front. We were so pleased with our spacious and well-lit room with all the windows and, such incredible views. This is a perfect boutique hotel. The staff is so professional and willing to assist you in any way. For example, the desk manager offered to help lug our luggage up a hill. Thankfully, it was not necessary. But they go the extra mile. The breakfasts with Andre were perfect and you can sit and watch the river scenes. We loved every moment of our stay here.

William, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful small 8 room hotel on the prime corner overlooking the Porto waterfront- not quiet- but great music playing in the square until about 10 - parking is a few blocks away but worth leaving your big suitcase and carrying in an overnight bag - best restaurant ever!
