This is a stylish, newly opened hotel. The design of the hotel, looking out on to the most beautiful Mediterranean garden, is stunning. Our room was huge and beautiful. The air conditioning worked super effectively. The bathroom was ultra luxurious…huge, chic and with a beautiful rainfall shower tiled in sunburst colours. This new hotel is linked, via the garden, to the longer established Editory Artist hotel. We strolled across the garden to this sister hotel and enjoyed a delightful ‘tasting menu’ one evening, lunch is also available. The hotels offer ‘placements’ to students from the neighbouring tourism and catering college, which means that service is absolutely excellent. The staff were so friendly and enthusiastic. There was a real vibrancy to the hotel.

Nothing. You should book without hesitation.

We booked to stay at The Editory Garden Hotel, Porto but actually stayed in The Editory Artist Hotel, next door. I will leave a separate review for that hotel. We arrived to check in and were advised we'd be upgraded to a bigger room at the adjoining Editory Artist due to an issue with our room at Editory Garden. The hotels share the gorgeous courtyard Garden so we didn't feel we'd be missing out and were happy to have the room issue resolved before we even checked in. The staff were so kind and welcoming and made sure we knew the facilities of both hotels were available to us.

Couldn't comment on anything we didn't like as this isn't where we ended up staying

The Editory Garden Hotel is a very good choice to stay in Porto and discover the city easily. It is not far from the airport and close to subway stations. All major points of interest can be reached easily with the public transports or walking in the streets. The hotel itself is well-designed, very clean and pleasant with its inner garden located in the courtyard, the comfy and quiet rooms offering good space and equipment.

The housekeeping was too early and quite disturbing in the morning. The staff is nice and polite, but a bit slow to react (we waited a too long moment to be served by the barmaid).

The breakfast was good, especially once I realised I didn't have to fill my plate with sweet treats! I liked the quiche, cheese and rocket, and fresh fruit. The bedroom was spacious, the shower was lovely. The garden was lovely (although the weather was a bit cold for sitting out in the morning).

The coffee was Americano, which I personally don't like the taste of. Once we realised we could ask for an espresso things started to look better! Juice - nice to have juices at breakfast but I didn't like the taste of the artificial sweetener or preservative that was in all the juices. The low water pressure in the basin tap took a bit of getting used to, useful to understand the sustainability reason for this.

Breakfast was excellent - a good variety of choice, staff friendly and helpful. Most staff were trainees and were very polite and friendly. Room was comfortable and clean. Hotel was quiet and stylish. Reception/management staff were experienced, competent and friendly.

The couple of issues we had were put right but did take some time to arrange.The bath/shower design was not great as water collected on the bath surround and ended up on the bathroom floor when the shower door was opened. Maybe the evening meal offering could be better - very limited choices for both hotels.

The hotel was really comfortable, the staff were excellent. Coffee machine in the room was excellent (yay good espresso!) We also loved the location for what we were looking for. We also had the Moments" testing menu in the sister hotel (which is a hospitality training school) at the recommendation of our Duoro Valley tour guide who had eaten then before and it was amazing. So well done! We'd definitely stay again.

Hands down the worst coffee machine I've ever come across in the breakfast room. It was truly awful. Powdered milk, bitter coffee... There was also an issue with a sewer smell in our building due to construction nearby (not their fault) and once they fixed the ventilation or whatever so that the smell was gone, the A/C then didn't work properly when we were so was really warm in the night, even with the window wide open. Woke up to 26 degrees on the last morning. Having said that, quite a bit of the situation was out of their control and they did their absolute best to make things right.

The Editory Garden is clean and did the job of giving us a place to stay not too far from the city. We requested a twin room when we booked. It was made up as a double but housekeeping remade it as a twin within half an hour.

We picked it because it had a garden but it was closed for a private function. Breakfast was extra, expensive and looked basic. We had a fabulous home cooked breakfast at a fraction of the price at Cafe Tulipe just down the road. Also the cafe at Sao Bento railway station was good.

It was clean and tidy, stylish and rather big. The location was excellent, just a few minutes walk from main street. Breakfast could be a little more varied, as the options were somewhat limited, but everything was fresh and well-prepared. The staff was friendly and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to stay, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

As I mentioned, the breakfast dishes were a little limited. Additionally, I booked in advance at a higher price, but when I checked the actual price on the day of check-in, it was significantly lower, which left me feeling a bit disappointed.

The hotel and rooms are beautifully appointed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, just a few minutes walk (uphill) from Bolhao market. Staff also tipped us off that there was street parking right outside the hotel so we just fed the meter (use the Telpark app) every two hours which was about half the price of their underground parking.

We stayed in the "Autumn" block and the view outside was of an old apartment building. The road was also a little noisy during the day. Not a big issue though as we were out most of the time. We could also hear a bit of noise from the corridor and the neighboring rooms.

We were greeted so warmly when we arrived and we managed to have our room 2 hours before official check in at 3pm. Our room was super clean, and on the third floor with the lift being close by. The bed was so comfy, the shower was 10/10! Loved that we could actually open the window and get some air flowing through. We visited for our anniversary and came back to our room later to some brownies and a little note. Fantastic location, incredible value for money. We didn’t have the breakfast so can’t comment on that.
