Top St. Ignatius Zoo Hotel Reviews

Zero Box Lodge Porto

8/10 Good

"A unique room, a brilliant welcoming with a beer to go, great complex. We spent two nights in our box, we were very busy so it was fine to come home to go to bed, but not sure I liked not having windows. Give it a try."

The Social Hub Porto

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in a fabulous location in Porto within easy walking distance of Bolhao Market, the main shopping area, the tour departure point. There are restaurants and bars all around. The room was immaculately cleaned and very modern. Serviced daily. Tea and coffee making facilities were well used! Loved the free water in the fridge daily. The staff were great. Very accommodating when we arrived super early, allowing us to change and leave our bags safely. Food and coffee shop was also great. We didn’t try the restaurant (but wish me had). The upstairs bar and pool/sunbathing area was fab again with attentive staff. The only criticism I had was that they needed more/ larger lifts. One was frequently malfunctioning and the other often so full you couldn’t get in. A minor issue. Everything else was fab!"

Pestana Vintage Porto Hotel & World Heritage Site

8/10 Good

"So our room was on the first floor with "a river view" . True but also a walkway right outside the window where pedestrian traffic could walk. So keeping the curtain closed was required. The room was a great size but a little odd in that the shower was glass all around in direct view of the bed and if curtain was open the windows. You could pull a curtain across to conceal so then there's that. The toilet was separated but again all glass so parts obscured but the door was heavy glass and left about 18 in for legroom if seated. Towel hooks in the toilet area. All the light switches were by the entry door. Despite those quirks the beds are comfortable, breakfast is very nice and the staff terrific. Close to all the riverfront activities and restaurants."

B&B Hotel Porto Gaia

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, pretty much right on the subway line. Luggage storage and large lounge area to hang out in. Room basic but functional, fridge very helpful. Free coffee and tea."

GA Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nous avons demandé de l’information pour une jourd’activitéd a Douro et aucun retour Les 3 premières journées, nous avions de l’eau imbuvable, nous l’avons mentionné a la reception et ca s’est réglé. Mise à part ces deux points, tout était parfait, personnel dévoué, accueillant et professionnel"

Origami Porto Residência

8/10 Good

"Host was friendly and informative, good location in Porto. Great for a budget stay"

Hotel Black Tulip - Porto Gaia

8/10 Good

"The hotel was convenient for our purposes but to be honest was a bit dated and tired. The room was a good size, with a big bed and a decent, if well used, bathroom with shower over bath. The restaurant was basic. Access into the basement car park (€15 supplement) was quite difficult to negotiate. They claim four stars but I would give three to be fair"

Quinta do Pedregal Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The most beautifully and friendly hotel with lovely and helpful staff. The great smile from all the staff was the most pleasing item of this holiday for me and my wife. Hotel was located outside Porto with an easy access to central Porto by uber or bolt. If you are looking for relaxing and friendly location this is the place to stay."

RUAH Apartments by LovelyStay

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place, very clean, just beside a metro stop, nice terrace to sit outside in. Nice kitchen bit and bathroom. Lovely touch of a bottle of wine and biscuits. I was a bit confused about checking in - once in the building I wasn’t sure which flat was mine but there was a lovely woman cleaning the room that helped me. Would def stay there again!"
