We had a wonderful time at the hotel, with exceptionally helpful staff and beautifully designed rooms that made our stay all the more enjoyable. The breakfast was lovely, though it could be a bit limited for some. The location is convenient for exploring Porto, making it easy to walk to many attractions. Overall, it offered a great value for the price and added a personal touch to our experience.
The hotel is a charming little gem in Porto, offering a cozy yet spacious atmosphere with beautifully designed interiors. I particularly appreciated the friendly and attentive service from Laura and Hudson, who made our stay more enjoyable. However, it could be slightly challenging for those with mobility issues due to the lack of an elevator. The breakfast was simple but delicious, and the garden area added a lovely touch to our experience.
Our stay at Malmerendas was outstanding. The historic character blended beautifully with modern comforts, making it a unique and enjoyable experience. The staff, especially Hudson and Laura, provided exceptional service, always ready to assist us with any question or need. While the breakfast was delicious, I would have appreciated a few more options. Overall, it offered great value for money in a charming atmosphere.
This boutique hotel offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere with spacious rooms and a lovely garden. The staff, particularly Laura, were incredibly helpful, providing excellent recommendations that enhanced our stay. While the breakfast was simple but tasty, it left a bit to be desired in variety. The location is convenient for exploring the city, though it involves a fair amount of uphill walking.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The combination of charm and modern amenities made for a wonderful experience. The hotel is located within a comfortable walking distance to many attractions, but there are also great local spots nearby for dining and supplies. The room was spacious and tastefully decorated, enhancing my enjoyment. However, the breakfast selection was somewhat limited, especially if you're looking for a more substantial start to your day.
