With the exception to a female receptionist at check-out, all the staff was very friendly and efficient, in particular the car valet drivers. Breakfast is always nice. The location is excellent, hence this was my third stay at this hotel.

The Spa is still not fully functional as some of the showers don't work and the same applies to the lower temperature steamroom. We had to pay an additional charge to access the Spa, hence we were expecting to enjoy all the facilities available. The female receptionist who was working when we checked-out was boarderline unpleasant and unhelpful.

The rooftop bar is beautiful - lovely views and drinks. Staff very prompt and friendly - checkin was smooth. The drink voucher was a nice touch. Common areas were will kept and very comfortable.

The hotel facilities are beginning to show their age. No doubt this hotel was once a 5 star but in modern times it is more like a 4 star. Small things like stains on the carpet and walls in our room, the pool facilities are quite dated for what you’d expect from a 5 star. Plugs beside the bed are very awkward to get to - shower water pressure was very low. Pillows are super soft and the mattress quite hard.

We stayed in one of the suites for our family of 4 - nice spacious room with two large full bathrooms. The rooms were clean and great for our stay. We enjoyed breakfast every morning - plentiful spread with a good variety of warm and cold foods. We enjoyed using the pool facilities. The staff was very professional and friendly. My friend left his mobile phone in the Uber and the genuine concern that the staff had in their attempts to help facilitate the return of the phone was fantastic. Anytime we had a question or left and returned the hotel, the staff were always there to greet us with a warm smile.

The pool/gym/spa facilities are not the hotel's own establishments. As such, the children's pool area (which looked great for our young children) were not availble to use as there were children's swim classes during our pool time.

The room and hotel were very clean, and the staff was helpful. There was a great breakfast, a very good restaurant, and wonderful waiting service. The view from the upper floors is superb, and overall, the hotel is fantastic.

1- The swimming pool. I think for a 5-star hotel a bigger swimming pool with more facilities should be provided. I was not sure if the entry to the gym is also included, but after checking the GYM, I also did not like the facilities there. 2- Room service is too expensive. I was charged 12 euros for a coffee. There was a charge of 7 euros for any inquiry to room service. Ordering a coffee outside the hotel and bringing it to the room costs less than 12 euros. 3- The location was very good, but far from the city center and far from the beaches. The closest metro station is 10 minutes away by walking, but the UBER service in Porto is cheap and easy, so not a big deal.

We recently stayed at Porto Palacio and had a fantastic experience. The hotel is located in a prime area, making it easy to explore the city. The room was spacious, clean. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any requests. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, I highly recommend Porto Palacio to anyone visiting Porto. It offers excellent value for money and a memorable stay.

Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. Staff were professional. The room was a very good size. Not central but fairly good transport links, and some nice restaurants nearby. However, we found the room too warm as the air conditioning wasn't very effective, and we were unable to open the window.

The room We stayed in the exclusive suite with our 4year old After 4 requests for a fold out bed in finally came as I had to repeatedly go to reception and eventually ask to speak to the manager The kids pool , was booked for private classes from 4-8pm . No mention of this on website , no mention that it is booked privately at all Furthermore you have to buy , yes that’s right buy swimming hats , not from the spa or where the swimming pool is located but back at reception We wouldn’t have booked if we knew the kids pool wasn’t available and the biggest suite in the hotel can’t cater for a family of 3 !! Having complained about all this , we were offered 3 cooked breakfasts that would be brought to our room at 6:30am as we had to check out at 7am for a flight We didn’t get cooked breakfast, we got cereals and pasties Staff in the swimming pool and spa facilities are RUDE and unhelpful - this isn’t the service of a 5 star hotel , actually I wouldn’t even consider this a 4 star We stayed in the Editory in central Porto all week prior to this , the service and staff were extremely helpful . But I will not ever stay in any of there hotels again due to this experience at Palaico. Regret spending €1500 in there establishment and would expect some form of compensation

Design and view

We were there 2 nights, and we couldn't book a restaurant. It was always busy, and we were told to book in advance. But i don't know when as we didn't know a month in advance that we were gonna come there. The same goes for the spa. Called them a few times and messaged them, nobody answered. When we came down wonen was on personal phone call and said that she had seen our message and they didn't have space because they had just one specialist (i mean, she could bother to answer on the message as she read it). Then I came to the gym to do pillates and before I saw a special room with equipment and was happy and excited. But the woman at reception said I can't go as it's just for classes and personal trainers. I said there is no one now. Maybe I can use it as all the equipment was there, she said no, it's the rule. I had to be under the stairs on a passing way to get a place. I mean, overall, 2 days of not great experience. Besides the reception guy who checked us in, everyone was rude and not caring enough to try to help. We didn't feel welcome, won't recommend it, and don't want to come back.

The room itself was clean and offered a pleasant view. The rest of the hotel was very nice. I particularly enjoyed a complimentary drink at the rooftop bar, which was delicious and offered excellent views.

However, the mattress was extremely hard and made for an uncomfortable night's sleep. A significant drawback was the pool facility. I was disappointed to find it was shared with a local gym (Solinca) and was not exclusive to hotel guests. The atmosphere was stifling, the décor was lacking, and the overall environment was neither attractive nor inviting. For a hotel of this standard, a private, well-designed pool area for guests would be a major improvement.
