NH Collection Porto Batalha

The rooms are very quiet, abundant breakfast, complimentary water, coffee; cookies and apples at the reception; very central location, parking available (17.5€ / night), Christmas market is just in front of the hotel. The room has a mini-desk and good WiFi connection. Post office is 2 min away, if you wish to send postcards.

The property is an iconic building in central Porto which has been refurbished to a high standard. The entrance hall and reception are very well appointed and the plaza immediately outside the hotel leads within a km to the cathedral.

The location was good - high on the hill overlooking the river. The hotel is in a square where there are some bars and restaurants and close to the town centre. I did not realise however how hilly the area is! We had room only and the room was spacious, spotlessly clean and airy. The bathroom was lovely and again, spotless. There were little nice touches, such as complimentary water and vouchers to sample Port wine.

The location is perfect for discovering Porto and only a short walk to the Funicular that takes you down to river level if you have had enough of the hilly streets. Our room was quite small but had a balcony overlooking the square which was delightful. We don't normally expect hotel restaurants to be of a particularly high standard but the restaurant here was exceptionally good and we dined there twice. Live music in the bar later one night was good too - a very talented guitarist. Staff were very helpful. We will stay again if we revisit Porto.

Our room was very spacious, with a balcony and great views of the Batalha square and toward the river. Super clean and well maintained. Breakfast was v.good. The location is top -- allowing you to walk to many places. The hop-on-hop-off bus stop is right around the corner. The Luis I Bridge is around 5-7 mins walk, around 20 mins walk to Livraria Lello. For healthier food options Honest Greens in Santa Catarina street appears to be the closest and v.affordable.
