Beautiful small 8 room hotel on the prime corner overlooking the Porto waterfront- not quiet- but great music playing in the square until about 10 - parking is a few blocks away but worth leaving your big suitcase and carrying in an overnight bag - best restaurant ever!

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!

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.
