Great Experience at the Intercontinental Porto
10.0The hotel is beautiful and peaceful with a great location. The staff are super nice, friendly, warm, and attentive. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast in the Astoria Restaurant each day, the options and quality were very good, adults paid full price and the kids under 9 were free.
Not great
6.0Breakfast was not good. The buffet had a warm bar section that was not warm at all the first day we were there and barely warm the second day. The hot dishes were okay but warm not hot. The black coffee tasted like cheap instant coffee and the cappuccino foam was very dense. Bread knife was dangerously dull. We avoided doing any other meals at the hotel because of it. Back courtyard area weirdly faces a chinese EV branded area and has dead olive trees in pots. Not much to look at. Room was okay, and had a nicer view out the front of the building. Only 1 chair at a desk so no where to sit together as a couple and relax. Shower was small but the bathtub was a good size. We enjoyed the couples massage that we got, it was the highlight of the stay. However the hotel gym is weirdly located in the same hallway so after checking in and changing into robes you're walking by people in workout clothes to the massage room.
vale a pena a escolha deste hotel
10.0A localização é excelente perto de tudo. O atendimento das equipes desde o check in ate check out excelente. Cafe da manha excepcional
Porto in Luxury
10.0The hotel was exactly what I have grown to expect and respect about all IHG properties. We love the entire brand.
Intercontinental is a perfect choice for Porto
10.0Perfect location, gorgeous hotel and rooms, attentive staff, great breakfast and bar areas- 10/10 for sure ! Centrally located so walking the city is easy. Highly highly recommend.
Very underwhelming
4.0I have the Platinum-Ambassador status and thought I would get a slightly better experience. It was very disappointing. Let's start with the positives - Beautiful lobby and restaurant - Friendly staff - Great location Now a series of not so good experiences. We had 2 rooms for 5 of us. The kids room got upgraded to the nicer view. It was always too warm and humid even after we had the technician there. The other room had more powerful AC which was blasting over the bed all might. The position of all outlets were behind the furniture making it hard to plug in. No speaker or way to cast. Only one bottle of water per day and they wanted to charge almost $7 for a second one (very stingy for this level of hotel). The large bathroom of one room had only a sheer drape covering large window overlooking the square so at night, a free show for people in the street (staff offered to come put something over it but seriously, couldn't they put normal draped. Maybe I'm just used to level of quality and service that I get from Hyatt hotels but this was way below my expectations.
