Special little gem
This was the most beautiful property we have ever stayed at. The staff was so friendly and took the time to sell us all about Porto and gave us a walking map. The property is just as you see.. a palace. I took so many photos. You will love your stay in this quiet lovely place.

Check in with Bruno was excellent! So very welcoming and helpful. Also shared tips on places to eat in the area. You don’t get that kind of welcome at big name brands!

10/10 Exceptional

Bruno was an amazing ambassador for both the Charm Palace and Porto in general. What an asset to your operation! His recommendations for places to eat were right on the mark and exactly as he describe — down to the descriptions of the food courses. So enthusiastic and genuinely interested in helping us experience the best few days we could in your city. The rooms are spectacular and the location perfect for staying just outside the hubub of the tourist core while still only 15 minutes walk from the old city centre. Too bad the water heater broke for the last two days though. The cold showers were bracing but not quite what we had hoped for. 😆 (An offer of free breakfast on the last morning would have been a cool gesture to make up for it. Just something to consider for future.) We would definitely come back for the check-in alone though!

Would definitely stay again
We had a really lovely stay in the Grey room at charm palace , access to our own outside seating and then the communal garden which felt very relaxing after walking up lots of steps and hills all day , felt very safe and comfortable at charm palace , Was Greeted by Bruno who helped us with ideas of things to do and dinner reservations , only thing I would comment on was the bed was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor ! But after using blanket as extra padding under the sheet it was slightly more comfortable , toilet and shower room were lovely , high ceilings made it all feel very grand ! Would recommend to my friends and family as a great place to stay , local supermarkets nearby and we walked everywhere and had a very good stay in Porto

Porto mini-break
We stayed 3 nights at Charm Palace. At check-in, Bruno took some time talking through some local restaurants and Porto more generally. And the room was fantastic!

We loved the Charm Palace. We stayed here two nights on a road trip through Spain/Portugal. We did book the "deluxe" room, which was more like a full apartment and was a nice relief after hotel rooms. The man that checked us in was really helpful.

Beautiful property, amenities close by. No parking, paid parking garage 10 minute walk away. Room was hot, no air, hard to leave windows open because of street and traffic noise.Bed just had a cold weather comforter, no sheet, so had to sleep without covers because of heat. Would still go back

Verified Expedia guest review

6/10 Good

While we were fine with the lack of staff at the facility per the description, our room was incredibly stuffy and the toilet wasn’t thoroughly cleaned. There was one small fan to “compensate” for the lack of air conditioning but the circulation was poor. Opening the windows led to a shared sun room with the hall and room across from us so we couldn’t leave it open to allow the cool air to come in. I will say the tub and shower were excellent, however. Pillows on the bed were flat and old. Just an ok, but otherwise uncomfortable stay.

A Porto delight!
A beautiful guesthouse, located centrally but outside of all the action. We walked to all the sites north and south of the river. Our room was very comfortable, really spacious and very well equipped. Paid on street parking in front but a paid car park nearby and very good value. We paid €20 for 48 hours.

6/10 Good

It is a cute building. Unfortunately, there are a few drawbacks: very uncomfortable beds and no air conditioning. They should get mattress covers and mini splits. There was a WiFi issue during my stay, but they did come to fix it. I did not like that they entered my unit without permission while I slept late one morning to do the WiFi repairs.

That historical hotel I always wanted stay in :)
Helpful friendly and beautiful with a fantastic location is how I would descibe this hotel experience. My advise would be to plan to bring in one meal to eat in the courtyard and have a relax in the upper sitting area.
