The location was amazing, and the staff were so nice and new multiple languages which was helpful. It's right next to the Bolhâo train station which we arrived at from the airport which was great, as well many restaurants and shopping centers including souvenir spots! The room we shared was great, it was spacious with a nice bathroom that they cleaned everyday. For some reason nothing was plugged in, including the fridge and even after I plugged it in and waited hours it wasn't cold and then the room got cold since it was raining but the air conditioning/heater didn't work or at least the remote didn't. But we enjoyed our stay here.

so the location is perfect! really in the center of Porto, near everything and with a subway station right next to it. the room was small and a little bit old but again, great view and a mini fridge where one can put what they want and a tiny bathroom. the coffee machine in the room above the reception was very good and cheap. everyone we met was nice and helpful.

there is no elevator so travel light. it's an old hotel so don't expect modern design rooms there is no parking, but again you really don't need a car to stay in there

The staff is WONDERFUL. I turned a 1 night stay into a 3 night stay. I had a few days off from my job in a neighboring city and decided to stay longer. They have a charming personality that makes you feel welcome and comfortable. The hotel is conveniently located in a popular Porto location, Santa Caterina, near Bolhoã. The metro station is less than a minute walk. The rooms are well insulated to keep outside traffic to a minimum. I am an extremely light sleeper and wasn't woken up by noise. The rooms are average size. Some rooms you can view the beautiful Capela das Almas, the blue tiled building that many people take pictures in front of because of its stunning architecture. For the price of the room you get more than you pay for in my opinion. I say this because of the location and comfortability. They provide you with top-notch service and professional yet friendly, which is a hard to master I find too often. There is also a pleasant aroma in the hotel that I find relaxing and comforting. They provide you with the usual hotel toiletries. My room also came stocked with plenty of towels. There is a mini refrigerator and air conditioner in the rooms. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my stay at Hotel do Norte.

The location was excellent in terms of being in a vibrant shopping district, next to a Metro station and close to the terrific market and a number of points of cultural interest. The staff were all great - a particular shout out to Manuela and Ruben who were very gracious in going out of their way for us. It was great bonus to be able to leave our bags there when walking the cammino.

The location would not suit those wanting to get away from the tourist beat. Also, being in such a prime location, the rooms were not large.

The location is perfect, close to the metro station, bustling area with shops and restaurants and also walking distance to all panoramic and most important attractions. The staff was excellent, the room was big enough and clean. The view from the window was spectacular, facing a mosaic wall of great traditional Portuguese paintings. 100% recommend if you're looking for a budget friendly and comfortable stay.

Old style. Key must be left at front desk when you are out. A gentleman in a business suit and good manners checked me in. One night I had a drink in a bar with friends and arrived at the hotel entrance after 1:00 AM. Another gentleman in a suit had waited up for me, and unlocked the door. The well-dressed women are also efficient and friendly. Top marks to the staff of this hotel.

The location is great, but because of location expect street noise, and the sound of buskers singing around the corner. Very good singers! Every retail shop imaginable within five minutes walk. Loads of pedestrians day and night outside your window. It is energetic, but not silent. Do not stay here if silence is your wish.

Location is excellent and the room had everything it needed really. Staff was friendly and available at all times. Daily cleaning. Good for a low budget option although it's not that cheap for what you get. It's an old hotel and it looked and felt that way.

The room had a weird smell. I don't know how to describe it but like maybe it should get more ventilation, was sort of old house musty smell. A lotttttt of stairs. Personally, I don't mind that much but if stairs are an issue, look elsewhere. I didn't think it was that cheap for what I got. But overall was fine.

Small nice room and bathroom equipped with everything you might need, soaps and towels provided. Location was great, very close to shopping and touristic street, and wasn't noisy. Expect no elevator or still a lot of stairs, elevator for interal use only and doesnt take you to every floor. I just couldn't take the stairs with suitcase, and asked to use the elevator.

I have feeling that the bed sheets weren't changed, it wasn't fresh and had long hairs on it.

central to everything. motorbike parking at the front door. gorgeous church opposite covered with the blue and white azulejos. fabulous reception available to answer our many questions. discovered easy flatish walks to many places on our to do list.

we asked for a quiet room as we were there for a few days, and we were given one on the fifth floor (no lift). it meant you def didn’t pop back or pop out for anything! but it was quiet.:)

Nice hotel in excellent location right next to Bolhao station and with a nice church across the street. Room is small but clean, bed comfy, 24h reception.

They should seriously fix the lift! I only had a backpack and could use an extra workout anyway but for those with suitcases or health issues climb to 5th floor wouldn't be fun. Room is a bit dated too, but everything works.
