The charming retro decor and huge bathroom made it a memorable stay. The proximity to the beach and exceptional seafood restaurants enhanced our experience, and the staff was genuinely helpful throughout our visit.

The best and worst parts

Conveniently situated near beaches and renowned seafood restaurants with friendly, accommodating staff. The hotel’s atmosphere and appealing communal areas make for a memorable retreat.

Rooms can be affected by external noise, making restful sleep elusive. Limited breakfast options and inadequate electrical outlets for charging devices detract from the overall experience.

My room had a fridge, but the street noise from the tram was really tough to handle.

The service was great, and the area was very relaxing.

Unfortunately, the room was quite small for two people, which made our stay uncomfortable. Additionally, the noise from the nearby tram line was disruptive, particularly during the early morning and late night hours. It significantly affected our sleep, and the reception staff were not readily available to address any concerns during our stay.

The hotel is only a five-minute walk to stunning beaches ideal for surfing and sailing! We really enjoyed the rich breakfast options, especially the fresh fruit. Plus, the charming architecture gave our family stay a unique touch.

In my wife’s opinion, more family-friendly activities for kids would be great.

The location near the beautiful beach and an array of seafood restaurants really made our stay enjoyable. The building itself has a unique charm with lovely historical architecture. Although the room was a bit small, it was well equipped, and the cleanliness was top-notch. Friendly staff and great service added to the warm atmosphere. Breakfast had a nice selection, but I wish the variety could be expanded a bit more. Limited space in the common areas was noticeable, especially during busy times, and seating availability could improve. Overall, the experience was pleasant, but a little more attention to room amenities and common spaces would elevate it further.

the location was superb. near the beach and fish restaurants, with easy access to public transport. breakfast was a self-service buffet that filled us up. staff were friendly and eager to help us navigate the area.

the scrambled eggs could be better. 😅

The communal areas were great, and I loved the library/play area for some downtime. A fantastic location near the beach and seafood spots.

Charming architecture with a perfect beach vibe

I really enjoyed my stay with its amazing decor that felt like a blend of retro and art deco, very unique! The clean room we had was just right for the price and included a fridge, which was super handy. Plus, being so close to the beach and numerous seafood restaurants made our dining experience delightful. However, it would have been nice to have a kettle or coffee machine in the room for those early morning cravings.

The Double Room was okay for our 1-night stay. It had a nice little balcony, but everything felt a bit old and the noise from the tram at night made it hard to sleep. The room could’ve used some updates for the price. On the positive side, the location near good seafood spots was a plus!

Clean room with great beach access, but no kettle or coffee machine provided.

historic vibes with amazing architecture, quiet atmosphere adds charm to your stay by the beach

Charming decor, great location near beach.

The lounge on the 1st floor was super comfy. Loved the historic vibes, and the quiet atmosphere was a blissful surprise!

It was a strong match for a weekend adventure in Matosinhos with extraordinarily good value for money. The hotel is conveniently located, making it easy to explore local attractions and enjoy fresh seafood. Be sure to check out nearby restaurants for the best fish dishes.
