Porto A.S. 1829 Hotel Review

Situated a mere 5 minutes' stroll from the historical Ribeira Square, the charming Porto A.S. 1829 Hotel boasts ample rooms overlooking the city. The all-seater Estadio do Dragao Football Stadium is placed about a 10-minute ride away, and the hilltop Romanesque Porto Cathedral is in the immediate vicinity of the 4-star historic hotel.

The restaurant at the A.S. 1829 Porto serves a buffet breakfast every morning. European cuisine can be enjoyed in the à la carte Largo restaurant. You can visit a bar situated close by and taste Portuguese cuisine.

This luxurious accommodation is placed about 20 km from Francisco Sa Carneiro airport and 550 metres from such cultural venues as the diverse museum "Portuguese Centre of Photography". Set within walking distance to an underground station, the entirely renovated A.S. 1829 is a few minutes drive from the lavishly designed historic Livraria Lello Book Store.

The charming property is situated within 15 minutes' walk of the landscaped gardens "Jardins do Palacio de Cristal", while Terminal dos Loios bus station lies a mere 400 metres away.

Offering ample bathrooms with hair dryers and towels, the allergy-free rooms are fitted with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels as well as a mini-fridge-bar. The nice touches include soundproof windows together with a writing desk. A separate toilet and a shower are available in private bathrooms.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and greeted us with a glass of local Port upon arrival. The rooms were quirky, well-maintained, and equipped with all the amenities we needed, including toiletries, tea and coffee making facilities, and complimentary water. The beds were comfortable, and we even had a small outdoor terrace in our room. The location was outstanding, right in the heart of the city, making it convenient for walking around, exploring local restaurants, and visiting major sites. It was also close to the Duoro waterside and just a 5-minute walk from São Bento railway station. The breakfast buffet offered a decent selection of hot and cold dishes, and the staff was friendly and attentive.
Nothing could have been better.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the heart of the city. The staff were incredibly helpful and even greeted us with a glass of local Port upon arrival. The rooms were quirky, well-kept, and had all the amenities we needed, including toiletries, tea and coffee making facilities, and complimentary water. We loved the comfortable beds and our room even had a small outdoor terrace. The location was outstanding, right in the middle of everything and close to most tourist attractions. We especially appreciated the quietness of our room, as it wasn't overlooking the busy pedestrian square. The buffet style breakfast had a decent selection of hot and cold dishes and the service from the staff was top-notch.
Didn't dislike anything about the property.
We had a fantastic stay in this hotel. The location was perfect, right in the center of Porto's old town, surrounded by local cafes and restaurants. We were just a short walk away from the Douro river and the metro stations São Bento and Trindade. The hotel facilities were excellent, with clean and attractively decorated rooms equipped with everything we needed. The breakfast provided was brilliant, offering a wide variety of delicious options. The staff were lovely and very helpful, always going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We couldn't ask for more.
Nothing, it is perfect.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The location was absolutely fantastic, situated at the end of the vibrant Rua Flores and close to Palacio da Bolsa and Ribeira. It was a convenient spot for exploring this city on foot and finding local restaurants. The hotel facilities were superb, with a historic building that had all the amenities I needed. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. The breakfast buffet offered a great variety of dishes, and the staff at the front desk were young, professional, and friendly. The service was excellent, with helpful staff always ready to assist with a smile on their face.
No issues.
