Casa CAMÉLIA

We’re staying at Casa Camélia right now for our 8-day trip to Porto and honestly, it’s one of the loveliest places we’ve stayed for a city break. It’s our first time in Porto and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. After a full day out exploring, coming back to the calm of Casa Camélia feels like such a treat. The gardens are beautiful, with quirky little paths, flowers everywhere and the sound of the fountain in the background. The view over the Douro is something else. It’s peaceful and quiet but still right in the city, with a five-minute walk down to the river and tram, and ten minutes to most of the main historical attractions, bars and restaurants. The glass pavilion tucked away in the gardens, with views stretching over the rooftops of Porto, is such a relaxed and quiet place to start the day with a coffee and a lovely space to come back to after sightseeing. The team here have been amazing. Raffael, Kalif and Emilio have all been genuinely kind and helpful, and their recommendations made our time here even better. Our room (Dahlia) is spotlessly clean, spacious and really comfortable, with direct access to the serene gardens. Everything’s been easy and relaxed. We’ve felt properly looked after. Can’t recommend Casa Camélia enough

Absolutely beautiful hotel. Very comfortable room and beds. The view could not be more stunning. Kalif was very kind and very helpful. He suggested great restaurants to check out. If you're at all a hotel breakfast type of person, it's worth it to pay for the hotel breakfast. The location was beautiful and the selection was great.

The hotel was beautiful, as was the garden. The room was very comfortable and a good size. The service was fantastic, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Porto is such a beautiful place to visit. We visited in November and the weather was great Many thanks to all the team

We went for a walk in the Casa Camélia garden, and the views were nice. We arrived in winter, late at night. We found that the window of the Buganvília bedroom was poorly maintained and closed incorrectly. This allowed noise and draft to come into the room. The bedroom was uncomfortable as things were in the wrong place. For instance, the TV was on the right-hand side of the bed, which meant viewing it from the bed was awkward. For the off-season, the price was very high. 4-star hotels in Porto included breakfast for less than what we paid at Casa Camélia. We stayed only one night to try it out and planned to extend our stay. However, we were glad that we only booked for one night. I have noticed that the owner of Casa Camélia responds to negative reviews by blaming his customers. I hope he will take my comments on board and spare the blame.

This place is pretty bad. *********** site does not have description that indicates - this place does not have air conditioning. In 80 F it was impossible to stay in this location. Owner was not friendly at all and said that he will charge entire amount, although we have refused to stay there. I would not recommend this hotel at all. Greedy, arrogant manager. Absolutely no human skills.

Hard to imagine a more restful place after a day of touring. A quiet, beautiful garden with fountain overlooking the Douro. Attractive decor throughout that has a fresh feeling. Staff wonderfully friendly, very knowledgeable and so willing to help. Delicious breakfast. It makes your vacation.
