Residencial Vale Formoso

Gostem muito da Residencial Vale Formoso, a simpatia dos funcionares é espantosa, estiveram sempre ao nosso dispor e ajudaram nos em tudo o que foi preciso, também gostei muito da tranquilidade da residencial que apesar de estar cheia nunca fomos incomodados com qualquer tipo de ruído.

The host family doesn’t speak English , but they are helpful

Our room was in the cellar , therefore there was no window in it .

Staff was really friendly

Good hotel. The staff was very friendly. There are a good supermarket and a cafe near the hotel. It is possible to have a help with a city orientation. Also, one of the worker have a very cute cat and sometimes we saw it))))

We were in Porto in November. It was rainy and very high level of the humidity. In the hotel was also high level of the humidity and small amount of fresh air. A lot of old building in Porto have problem too.

Staff was incredibly helpful. One of our group needed a taxi at 5am and we speak almost no Portuguese. At 5am a taxi was waiting for us. Amigo Jose was incredibly accommodating.

A little outside of the center. For us that was fine, but some might not like to walk as much as we do.

-Excellent reception, a family owned and operated hotel, with a very personal attention, they even helped calling the airport about a missing bag, the cleanliness better than in a 5-star hotel, and a good breakfast.

None.

The hotel is very nice, very very clean, and wifi is free. The personnel reception is very welcoming. José, we have to thank you for your smile and your advices

The hotel is near a bus stop (frequent), but a little far from metro stations. However, the tickets cost 1.5 euros, which makes it a little expensive to travel to the city center. Heating was a little slow in the room.

I chose this residencial because of the other comments and the proximity of my friends' appartment. Indeed, José is very helpful, the hotel is nice and comfortable and the breakfast is simple but good. A solid choice.

As for me, I needed to be around the Paranhos area. But for people visiting Porto it's not the closest hotel to the centre.

Everything! This was the highlight of our trip, we felt we found a gem of a hostel. It's family run, and the family are just lovely. Mr Jose and his son were delightful, helpful on all counts, even escorting us to a post office one day as we couldn't find it!! Hotel premesis was a lovely 100yr old building which felt really typical. Room was very clean, sheets were changed everyday. Breakfast was simple but very nice. Centre of town was a short bus ride away. All in all a lovely experience.

No problems at all would definately recommend this place.
