Loved our stay at Hotel Grande Rio, the staff was super responsive and helpful. The view was great and the beds comfortable. It was very quiet at night and walkable to the downtown Porto! Overall excellent value for the price. Will return.
The staff were wonderful! But they only clean the room and change the towels every 3 days. In addition, the room had some serious mold and mildew. It was very noticeable and our entire room was damp most of the time - we tried turning on the AC but there was no dehumidifier option. The pillows were also flat pads. I would go back if the mold issue was addressed just because of how friendly the staff is.
On the good side: The staff are pleasant and very helpful. The property is clean, super clean.
On the not-so-good side: The building is old and so are the beds,
A charming and convenient spot for those wising to explore all Porto has to offer. Close to transit; assistance available at nearly all hours; and petite albeit cozy rooms.
We had a great time here even though just staying for 1 night. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, modern and very clean.
The only downside I would say is that our booking said King size bed, but we received a double.
Highly recommend a visit.
The Hotel is only a few hundred meters from the Marques Metro station. The hotel has well appointed rooms with cable TV and am en suite.The staff are friendly and helpful and can provide suggestions on what to do andcwhere to go overall great value for money.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Our stay at this hotel had both positives and a few drawbacks. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the location was quite convenient, making it easy to get around and explore the area. The hotel also seems to have been recently remodeled, which was a nice touch.
However, the rooms were not very spacious, and the bedding felt quite old and could use an upgrade. One challenge we faced was the absence of an elevator, so carrying luggage up two floors was a bit inconvenient.
While the pricing is reasonable for what’s offered, we would likely consider other options for our next stay.

It was great except that some of the fixtures in the bathroom were a little loose and needed attention.
The hotel is nice and new, but the WIFI never worked on our room, neither the Air coinditioner. We asked for help, but the hotel didnt provide any help. Very disappointed.
Bel emplacement central avec le métro mais parking plein : il faut penser à réserver et ce n’est pas possible via expédia :(
Personnel des plus accueillant avec explications claires pour aller dans le centre (2 stations de métros)
Un bémol sur les prises pour recharger les portables : 2 prises électriques dans la chambre trois personnes placées au même endroit + une dans la salle de bain : pas très pratique !
Equipe de funcionários bastante acolhedora. Tentaram resolver todas as solicitações. Os quartos não são muito grandes mas são limpos e silenciosos. Pena que o hotel não e tão próximo ao centro historico, mas tem estação de metro a poucos minutos a pé.
