Perfectly Charming
The Gran Cruz House went beyond my expectations. The staff was helpful and friendly. The room decor was attractive and authentic, overlooking the river. The breakfast was elegant and delicious. It was a lovely two days in the heart of Porto.

Stay Here!!
We had the most wonderful and magical stay at the Grab Cruz House. The morning attendant, Arthur, was amazing. He took care of us every morning and gave us ideas of places to go and things to do. He also got me a birthday reservation at a wonderful restaurant nearby. This hotel has a lot of style, sits right in the middle of one of the best areas to mill about and has a terrific staff that is very accommodating. We will be back and we will tell our friends all about it! Great value overall for all of the experiences we had!

Stayed 3nights. Very comfortable and clean, air conditioning worked well/ quiet. The noise from the street was audible through the vintage/ old single pane the glass but it died down enough by11pm or so... didn't have to use ear plugs though it was nice that they're provided. Antonio at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful to many questions and provided a recommendation (and got us reservations) to a fantastic restaurant for dinner ( Adega Dona Antonia ). Breakfast/ items was also very good including the coffee and very attentive/ friendly service from both waiters on both mornings. The third morning they packed us a breakfast to go since we had to leave early. Small/ inconspicuous entry to hotel
Might be hard to find if you don't have a guide. We would recommend to stay here. We were on the 5th floor ( Vintage room)

The hotel staff went out of its way to make my wife and I feel comfortable. We loved the 2nd floor outside bar with a beautiful garden. The hotel is on a quiet residential street very close to very nice restaurants and bars.

Fantastically helpful staff, cute hidden lobby, and GLORIOUS rooms! I cannot believe this wasn't triple the price. I will be recommending it and staying again, on a longer trip.

The white room is beautiful and has beautiful views of the river. Very clean, well maintained, excellent staff. We left super early to catch our flight, and they surprised us with a to-go breakfast box from the restaurant. Very nice detail and came in handy!

Lovely place. Even better than the pictures. Directly on Riberia Square so expect some noise but it more than makes up for it in comfort and finish.

This was a wonderful boutique hotel that was a perfect place to stay on the waterfront in Porto, within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly, especially Antonio. The restaurant was so good that we did most of our dining at the hotel. The breakfast that was included was very good as well. It is a lively atmosphere with lots of cafes on the street but when we closed the windows and shutters it was remarkably quiet. We enjoyed the street musicians as it added to the ambiance. Would definitely stay there again.
