I stayed at the hotel in November 2024. The hotel has excellent and attentive staff. I would especially like to highlight the receptionists, who have an excellent command of English and perfect pronunciation. The room was cleaned daily, and everything was spotlessly clean! The furniture was slightly worn, but the air conditioning worked perfectly in all modes, including heating. Breakfast was included in the stay. While there wasn’t much daily variety, the food was of high quality and very tasty. I traveled around Portugal by car, and the hotel conveniently offers free parking. It’s a great base for exploring both the center and northern parts of the country.

Unfortunately, the evening restaurant was a big disappointment. One time, they served me nearly raw meat (yes, red meat that was tough to cut and had no juices). When I showed it to the waiter, he shrugged and said, “Yeah, I see, sorry,” but they didn’t replace it or remove it from the bill! Another time, I ordered a national dish—Francesinha. It was poorly prepared and tasted awful. If you try this dish in Porto, you’ll realize that the hotel simply doesn’t know how to make it!

I would highly recommend hotel Monte Lírio to anyone! We got the best treatment! Very professional, helpful and amazing staff. We even got our breakfast on the go as we were checking out early. The rooms are clean, spacious with a balcony. The food is fresh and delicious. We also enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi. Hotel is located very close to the beach, just a 10-15min walk away, there's also a Continente shop along the way. I loved the fact that it's a bit further from Espinho centre as it seemed more peaceful. Thank you for welcoming us at your hotel! We enjoyed our stay and will hold great memories of our holiday! ❤️

The hotel is very good. Very clean. Comfortable. There is a garage under the hotel. We really liked the atmosphere – peaceful and relaxing. The staff was incredibly friendly, both at the reception and in housekeeping. We also enjoyed the pool and the surrounding area. The sea is within walking distance, with a wide beach. It’s a perfect place to unwind and escape from stress – no loud music or crowds. Breakfast was good as well. Thank you to all the wonderful staff!

Was more than we were expecting. Large room/suite. Very helpful and friendly staff. Easy walk to beach (9mins) and close to large shopping.

Hotel was nice and clean, rooms with nice balconies. Restaurant very good. Staff very friendly especially in restaurant and bar. Nice pool outside.

Smoking policy, people have been allowed to smoke on balconies. We have smoking guests on balcony below and on the side. We can’t seat at our balcony because all cigarettes smoke come to our balcony and room. Therefore we have to close our sliding doors to stop smoke coming to the room.

spacious rooms, with a big balcony. We had the ocean view which was excellent. The bathroom was very big and well equipped. The breakfast was excellent, plenty of choice. The swimming ppol was also very nice, with plenty of sun beds and umbrellas. The hotel is a few minutes walk from a big supermarket and in a few minutes more you can reach the beach. Esoinho town is also close by. The train station is at a 20 min walk (with a train to Porto).

The hotel was in the best place for our purposes to walk about Espinho. Breakfast was plenty and really good. We also had really lovely food at the Hotel restaurant. The ladies at the reception were amazing and super helpful. We really loved our stay.

Unfortunately the gym was out of order during our stay.

1. Spacious bathroom and room with balcony 2. Though standard breakfast, good 3 Close to beach 4. Good communication and friendly staff

1. There is a road in front the the hotel, whenever car passing by, you hear it 2. A little far from the train station, something half hour walk.

The staff was awesome (not so much at the reception, but everywhere else - pool, bar, cleaning... Amazing staff, very nice and helpful!). The pool was a lifesaver.

I found the welcome a bit cold, at the front desk. Polite, but cold. So not even that serious of an issue :)

One of the things that immediately caught my attention is the room size. Its very big. Even with a sofa-bed installed it seems to have space for kids to play. The breakfast was nice and fresh. Also the staff was always polite and with a smile on their faces. I recommend it.

If I need to say something "negative" is the room isolation is not that good. You can hear everything. Also the Hotel needs an upgrade on its facilities. You have parts in the room that are in need of a paint job and other minor fixes.
