Hotel América - Porto

very cold at night in the room

Very nice hotel, though the room was very small. Breakfast was excellent. The service provided was very good. The staff was very competent and helpful.

The hotel is on a very busy and noisy (and dirty) street - try to get a room facing the yard ! The room was spacious, especially the bathroom. The floor in the room was however cranked, and some of the boards would come out. The breakfast buffet was very rich. The hotel doesn't have a real luggage room, ours was put to the handicapped people's bathroom...

Very well situated, in a main street of Porto. You can walk to the city centre. There is a shopping centre in a 5 minutes walk. Good price, not expensive. Our room was noisy because of the cars in the street.

this hotel is just good for one short stay and for the rate paid but its not high quality hotel the breakfast room is booring and sad with walls just in front of windows the restaurant next to the hotel is not good forget it go to bolhao market on basement nr 36 you can eat in this market with very friendly people and eat for LUNCH AT 12 00 EURO FOR BOTH PERSONS WITH FISH GRILLED DESSERT AND WINE WHICH IS GOOD

good hotel close to shoppingstreet and metrostation.

Very friendy staff always able to solve all the problems and questions, nice location, very good food, very nice-styled breakfast room. I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone!

Receptionists (I meet 5 of them) NEVER smile. I asked also informations for the nearest metro station: their answer (verified on their drawn map and tube's map) was uncorrect and I walked under the rain a lot, without reason. Don't book room nr. 103: it's over the reception, and you listen everything, telephone rings included; and it's ON the street: opening window, everyone see you as a red quarter! Very clean, bathorooms too.

Rooms at front of hotel are very noisy! The road is very busy all night as it seems to be a major travel route in and out of city. After one night we asked to be moved to a room at the back of the hotel which was much quieter. Location is good but definitely not in a pretty part of town. About 10 minute walk to nearest metro stop and the main shopping street in Porto. Good half hour walk from Ribera district. Breakfast was very adequate. Staff, although not entirely helpful, were competent.

Receptionist unpleasant and undhelpfull, room ok even if bed not good (matress...), no real parking space, breakfast disapointing.

Although we turned up about 10am, our room was made available very shortly for us to store our luggage and we had free coffee whilst waiting. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff gave us good info about the sights in Porto, and directions for getting to the airport. The hotel is easy walking distance from the centre of town and has its own car park - a bit narrow (had to back out) but still very convenient.

Très bon accueil au bureau. Chambres vasres et calmes, super propres. Bon restaurant à deux pas et locatrion de voiture à 200m.Tout est OK;

É um bom lugar para hospedagem pois está muito próximo da zona central(historica) da cidade e ,no máximo , a 5 euros de táxi das principais atrações da cidade. Gostamos muito!

The hotel is very good vslue for money as I previously stated - and I still recomend it, but this time we were given a room which was extremelly smelling of cigarettes and the airconditioning system did not work.

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights at the start of our holiday in Portugal and we considered it a very good value for money.The only problem was some noise in the room because of the street trafic. Keeping windows closed and using the airconditioning system improved the situation. However the one night spent in this hotel at the end of our holiday was not so good (see our other rating and review about this hotel).
