Cedofeita Hotels with Pools

This Porto hotel has only been open a couple of years. It is a little bit away from the Douro river, about a 15-20 in walk, and the historic area but it is right on the Metro Red Line which is the one that goes to and from the airport. It is also only one stop to the Trindade station which connects to other lines and down to the river. The Lapa station is a short walk to/from the hotel. The hotel is very nice and very accommodating, the rooms are good sized, there is an in-house restaurant and bar, along with an outdoor bar with a limited menu by the pool, which often has music in the evenings. The morning breakfast buffet has many choices and was well presented, thanks to Isabela and Jorbert who took good care of us each morning. There is no Executive lounge or full-time concierge but the front desk and bell staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. Joao was a great bartender for an evening stop at the bar. Views are across the roofs of Porto and the hotel is so new, there is still vacant lot on one side, that is left over from construction and the closest route to the hotel from the Metro is across a trail through a dirt lot (you can take sidewalks that take a little longer). Would return on another trip to Porto.

The room is relatively close to the city center. The room is big, really big, and the sanitation is OK. The whole hotel is full of blue elements. The breakfast is about the same. The corridor is a bit narrow and dark. They have a problem, they can't check in early, it's in the afternoon After 3 o'clock, before leaving the store at 11 o'clock, most hotels can check in at 12 o'clock. I don't quite understand this, and it's impossible to negotiate.

We stayed 3 nights and wished it was longer. Based on previous reviews we were expecting a quieter area but the hotel is set off a busy street not that you hear any traffic. The building is absolutely stunning and spotlessly clean. All of the staff are super friendly and can't do enough for you. The hotel is located about 10 minutes from the centre along a pedestrianised area with lots of local shops, cafes and some restaurants. The breakfast was delicious and would rank as one of the best we have had. Lots of choice and regularly topped up to ensure no-one misses out. The service time for breakfast was great too - until 11am everyday! We recommend the cooked to order omelette. We would recommend the hotel and felt that the price we paid was very good value. A hotel of this quality would be double in the UK!

We are on our last night before heading home from Porto and have truly had the most amazing stay at Maison Cabral. It's a total gem tucked away in what feels like a residential area but not far from local bars, restaurants and the sights of Porto. Alberto, Susana and the team have been absolutely amazing and cannot do enough for you. They gave us some great tips for our stay and greeted us like family each time we saw them. The added bonus of their furry friends Luchino & Vitorio (the cats) made us feel even more at home. Our room was perfect with a modern and classy feel, in keeping with the rest of the hotel and we absolutely loved the garden and pool area. We stayed for a week which was perfect as we were able to explore Porto in the morning and then laze around the stunning pool in the afternoon (with the cats😻). Kurt & Dave
