Grande Hotel de Paris

Lovely classic hotel

Plus: This grand hotel is old -- the oldest in Porto in fact. However, what is lacks in modernity is more than made up by its style and service. You will be greeted by a doorman when you arrive. The red carpets, the keys in the storage racks, and the antique furniture are charming. Good breakfast and a lovely dinning room and a quaint little garden are added bonus. Oh, great location too. Highly recommended.

Plus: Charming old hotel intelligently renovated

Historic old hotel in central location

Plus: Great location and buffet breakfast. The building itself is almost a museum.

Minus: If you prefer new and modern, stay somewhere else.
