Frommer's "Set within an antique villa, a few steps from the São João do Foz fortress, this hotel evokes old Porto at its most nostalgic." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"Hotel Boa Vista is a mid-range property housed in a charming 19th-century building in the quiet Foz da Douro area, where the Atlantic Ocean and Douro River meet." Full review
Lonely Planet "A classic, 19th-century seaside inn outside and a thoroughly modern if somewhat characterless hotel inside." Full review
Time Out "The fourth floor has a terrace open to the general public, with a lovely view of the sea. And you don’t have to starve there – they sell snacks and cocktails." Full review
Fodor's "True to its name—which literally means "nice view”—this hotel has eye-popping views from the rooftop pool and sun terrace of the Douro Estuary and the Atlantic Ocean." Full review

"One of the country’s newest pousadas is an 87-room gem improbably created from a magnificent 1742 baroque palace...and an adjoining eighteenth-century brick flour mill. ... The new best bet in Porto." Full review
Star Service "Set on the banks of the Douro, on the east side of the Arrabida Bridge, a short five-minute taxi ride to the old city, and looking out across the river toward Vila Novia." Full review
OysterLuxury

The Telegraph8.0
"Unlikely pairing of an 18th-century palace and neighbouring flour mill creates one of Porto’s most luxurious accommodation options, and offers quiet reprieve for guests seeking comfort and relaxation." Full review
Time Out "If you fancy feeling like a prince or princess on your next trip to Porto, book yourself into an 18th century palace at the Palácio do Freixo." Full review
U.S. News & World Report5.0
"Overlooking the picturesque Douro River, this hotel impresses travelers with its spacious rooms and elegant decor." Full review
Frommer's "Only the 18th-century formal garden and its gently trickling fountain separate this magnificent Baroque palace from the River Douro." Full review
