Madalena Hotels, Porto

"Just unbelievable, staff made our experience world class!"

"Clean and best location"

"Very close to the airport and metro station. Hotel staff was very helpful."

"Great location, clean and quiet. Amenities are pricey "

"Buffet breakfast was extensive and of good quality, rooms are large and very comfortable, location was perfect for us."

"Showers have a problem with temperature regulation. Be very careful with any small children. Can go from very hot to quite cool without any adjustment, ongoing. It was extreme in our first room assignment to the extent that it scared me. They gave us a second room assignment, but it had a stench (that I could later smell in the entry/lobby area - I believe it’s a sewer gas smell) in the bathroom area as well as a huge concrete support that took up literally half the shower area space…. So I asked for yet another room assignment. Third room smelled fine, thank goodness, and the shower water temperature problem was less extreme, but still noticeable. Still, don’t have children unsupervised in those showers. Truly. Bed was very comfortable! Great mattress. A/C worked great! Bathroom was large (tho that second, smelly one was pretty bad, tbh). They should honestly give a bargain price for that crazy half shower situation. I don’t think they can possibly clean behind that huge support pillar, which makes me wonder about the smell. Front desk people are very helpful. Location is great, and cost is very reasonable. Prices in the bar are a bit expensive, so I would go experience the city rather than spend money there. We did not try the breakfast. We would rather try small, local cafes and bistros. Rooftop amenities might be nice for summer time. We’re all about location and cost, and only two adults in the room, so this place was perfect for our minimal needs."

"Excellent location - on the river and a short level walk to Ribeira with all its restaurants. We had a brilliant view of the river and the Dom Luis I Bridge from our room."

"The staff members were outstanding: helpful, kind, and funny. The only weird thing was the decor which features a light pole in front of an art print (why?). And the TV is in the full length mirror."

"Everything great!"
