Bar
Porto has no shortage of nice hotels, but most of them are near the beach. Since we visited in the cool springtime and would therefore need more of an urban experience, we opted for the InterContinental Porto, located in an 18th-century palace.
Lobby
The hotel anchors one end of Avenida dos Aliados, a massive square lined with Beaux-Arts buildings. The opposite end is anchored by the imposing granite and marble city hall with its 70-meter bell tower.
Small but comfortable room
The hotel was very comfortable and fully equipped with a fitness center, cozy bar and restaurant that served a reasonably priced breakfast. The concierge desk was one of the best I’ve seen in Europe, staffed by many knowledgeable young men who were happy to advise and help.
