Cale Guest House

"A good small hotel in a great location. Reception staff were lovely. Decent sized, comfortable room. Comfortable bed. Reasonable bathroom. The shower worked well. Breakfast was OK"

"The shower was over the bath and felt a little risky getting in and out. Not enough coat hangers. Staff at breakfast not very friendly. The breakfast was basic and the coffee terrible"

"The accommodation is very centrally located. The room with a private bathroom was very nice, spacious, and bright, with a view of the street. A highlight of the place is the rooftop terrace, which offers a wonderful view over parts of the city. The breakfast was also really good. The very friendly host provided us with helpful tips for our stay in Porto. All in all, I highly recommend this accommodation."

"We didn’t have any complaints. However, both the rooms and the terrace can only be reached via fairly steep stairs. This accommodation is not recommended for people with limited mobility."

"Location was brilliant Staff were excellent really helpful"

"Bed not overly comfortable"

"Excellent location in the center of historic Porto; the entire staff had been very nice, helpful and friiendly"

"Parking only available in nearby parking garages at substantial rates; very inconvenient if you travel with larger baggage due to unavailability of elevadors."

"Great breakfast, super location. Warm welcome and really helpful information sharing from Chris"

"Would have preferred more pillows Strange noises in the room …. from the plumbing perhaps?"

"- Amazing breakfast selection. -Amazing views from the terrace and room 7. -Room size was excellent and had a separate small living room area. -Warm. -Great extras- kettle, biscuits, water, blankets. -location is great. -Extremely helpful and warm staff- Crís really helped with bags, Laura helped to give city tips and placed our bags in our room as we couldn't check in as we arrived very early. Grateful as we had to walk over 3 flights of stairs!"

"-On 2 occasions the receptionists (not Crís) got our bags mixed up and placed them in incorrect rooms. Luckily the accommodation is small and secure, but this could be unsafe. - no lift, so be mindful how much you travel with. - consider having a mirror in the living room or a mirror with lights around it for makeup!"

"The guest house is in a great central location in easy walking distance from/to the Sao Bento station (connect to Campanha), Douro river and old town and tourist areas. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. Chris at reception was very welcoming and provided lots of advice about places to visit and where to eat locally and she always had a friendly greeting when we returned to the guest house. We had a large room on the top floor with good open views towards Gaia and the opportunity to observe people and activity in the local area. The room had a large comfortable bed and a separate sitting area with sofa and armchair and good aircon/heating. The bathroom was large, with the shower over the bath (plenty of hot water but weak pressure). Breakfast was typical continental fare with fresh juice, cereals, yogurt, boiled eggs, meats, cheeses, breads and cakes. Good quality and more than enough to start your day. Overall, a pleasant place to stay that was good value for money."

"As commented upon by others - steep stairs only that could be a challenge for some guests. Chris was happy to assist with luggage. Also, a small fridge and kettle in each room would make stays more comfortable for guests."

"Very clean and spacious. Great location. Very attentive staff. Very knowledgeable about the area. Would highly recommend"

"Nothing"

"Very comfortable stay, lovely helpful staff, including sorting storing our bicycle"

"Aucun."

"The warm welcoming reception by the staff at checkin will always be remembered. The breakfast was basic but tasty. The courtyard at different level provides great views of the city. Excellent location , meant that the sights along the river as well as in the old city was within easy walking distance."

"Not much not to like...😄"
