ALIBI by YoursPorto

We stayed here for 3 nights in mid March. This was our first time in Porto and we couldn't wish for a better place to stay. Ideally situate,lovely room and friendly and helpful staff. We had breakfast every day and it was excellent. Porto is a wonderful place and we will certainly return and will definitely stay at Alibi again. Would thoroughly recommend.

This is a great little place to stay. We arrived very early hoping to just go drop our bags but staff were happy to gives us an available room (which was and upgrade). Nicely renovated with large showers and comfortable beds. Handy to waterfront and shopping streets. A number of coffee shops (inc Starbucks) are close by and a coin laundromat a few doors away. Nice wine bar at the entrance. Would stay here again.

The hotel is in a quiet location, close to main attractions. I highly recommend the hotel restaurant. We had two fantastic dining experiences. The Continental breakfast was also very good. Fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries including Portuguese tart, cheese and cured meats. You need to order breakfast on the previous day by 4.00 pm. There is also a very well stocked wine bar, where you can order tapas at lunchtime. The room had a beautiful view of Porto. It was very clean and comfortable. There was a kettle and complimentary tea bags. There was also a complimentary bottle of water each morning. It is quite a small hotel and no lift, we were on the third floor. So if your mobility is poor make sure you book a room on a lower or ground floor. The staff were very friendly, helpful and English speaking. Ricardo was especially attentive. He can also recommend the best restaurants and sights to visit. We stayed for four nights and enjoyed our stay very much. We love Porto!!!

Ricky greeted us when we checked in. Great overview about the city and what to visit. Thank you.

We’ve just come home from a 3 night stay at Alibi and I have to say, we were delighted with this accommodation! The rooms are nothing fancy but there’s plenty of room, they’re cleaned daily and the showers are great! Location-wise, you couldn’t really ask for much better…..close to pretty much everything in Porto (we walked everywhere) with plenty of bars & restaurants nearby. They have what looks like a lovely restaurant on site but as we were a group of 10 we couldn’t get a table unfortunately. Communication prior to arriving was excellent so we knew how to access our rooms despite arriving late at night. Now to the star of the show, Ricky - what a fabulous character! He was there each morning to serve up the delicious breakfast and he’s so helpful! He showed us everywhere on a map and advised the best places to eat & drink as well as the ones to avoid!! He even tried to get us a restaurant booking for the 10 of us on Saturday night - as it turns out pretty much impossible so if you’re a big group be sure to book your restaurants in advance! Im sure there’s probably loads I’ve missed but I’ll just sum it all up with a huge recommendation and a promise that we will definitely be back!!

Single, female, aged 43 from the UK. I stayed here on my own in a family room (A3, front facing). Lovely big and spacious room with beautiful old shutters (that make it gloriously dark to sleep) and a small balcony to sit on and watch the world of Porto go by below you. Big bathroom with powerful rain shower and a smaller option for the days you don't need a hair wash. They supply plenty of towels, that were fluffy and big. The bed was comfortable with firm pillows. The wooden floors on the stairs can cause noise but overall this wasn't an issue for me. Great contact from the property from online check-in to organising the wine tour (see my review of EFun tours) and recommending restaurants (other than Alibi) From arrival the senses were engaged. You have a code to enter the building and it matches your room - which is genius. No key to lose or carry around and it was easy to give to friends who joined me. Perfectly located in the middle of the old town within walking distance of everywhere. TV with BBC entertainment. I felt extremely safe staying here. It's the small touches that make a difference - umbrellas to use by the door, no keys, free daily water and books placed in the room to read. This is a unique place to stay that makes you smile as you return from a long day of tastings and walking.

Fantastic little find. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to help. Would recommend.

Nice, small rooms. You need to climb up to 3 flights of stairs and lug your bag yourself. No dresser or clothes storage beyond a coat rack. Above a restaurant so you have to walk through it to/from your room. Very central. Close to many things.

We were thrilled with our choice of Alibi for our hotel in Porto. Great location and phenomenal service. Extremely reasonably priced when we were there in June. The room we had was very basic (no view) but it was very comfortable, quiet, clean, and cool. The shared balcony view made up for the lack of one from our room. Ricky the concierge/manager was stellar: friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Couldn't recommend this hotel more. The view from the shared balconies was awesome. While we didn't eat lunch or dinner in the restaurant we did have an excellent breakfast every morning there including some of the best croissant and pastel de nata we've ever had. The only very minor "issue" was a lack of drawers into which one could unpack. Great location -- close to sights, shopping, and many excellent restaurants. Excellent service. Spectacular view. Great price.
