The room was very clean, the air conditioning worked well. The staff was very kind. The breakfast was lovely - lots of options. The hotel was in a great location (easy to walk to many places).
Location was great, rooms were very clean and staff there were excellent and attentive.
However, the pillows were quite thick and not the most comfortable....although the overall bed was very comfortable
Everything was perfect. Top notch service, great room, and great breakfast. The location is worth noting. There are literally 2 dozen bars and restaurants within a few blocks. All with a local vibe. Not touristy like near the river (which is quick walk away). There's even a grocery store less than 2 blocks away. Love this place!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was absolutely spectacular. Every single member of the staff was professional, kind and genuinely sweet. Breakfast was excellent, too. Great location!!
This was an absolute gem of a find. Small, boutique style hotel at a very reasonable rate. Staff were incredible - super welcoming, friendly and fun - we really felt that we were being taken care of. Room was beautifully decorated, quiet and comfortable.
Breakfast in the hotel restaurant was amazing. Would 100% recommend.
Customer service at Prim and Proper is truly excellent and the hotel itself is fabulous, well maintained and beautiful with a real eye to detail. We enjoyed being located just outside of the historic area and the alternative options this offered for eating etc which we found to be excellent - including the hotels recommendation of O Freitas - just a few doors away and easily our best meal of the stay. We would definitely recommend and revisit Prim & Proper Porto.
Lovely spot in the heart of Porto. Great location, and really clean and comfortable. Rooms are spacious and the bathroom is big enough to enjoy. Overall a great stay.
Prim and proper was a great stay, the rooms are perfect and the staff are friendly. The breakfast was good but don’t expect a big buffet. Good dining options nearby (casa Guedes, get the de casa). Would definitely stay again when in Lisbon.
My wife and I had an amazing experience at this hotel. The front desk staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the location was ideal—within easy walking distance to all major sites. We highly recommend this hotel and look forward to returning!
This charming hotel provided us with exceptional service and a truly welcoming experience. Our room was impeccably clean and wonderfully quiet, making for a relaxing stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Porto—it's the only place to stay.
Delightful and very helpful staff. In a great area with wide and varied dining options close by with all of the tourists attractions well within walking distance. Would I stay here again? Absolutely!
One of the best private hotel i have been in. V
The architecture and design if bluffing. The rooms are very nice, unique and very comfy. Good sound isolation. The bathroom was beautiful. Noble materials. Nice staff and good breakfast. I strongly recommend it.location was good too.
The room was wonderful, the staff were super friendly and attentive. The breakfast was sometimes slower than others, but always good, you can also request if you wanted something a little different which is always great.
We always got fresh towels when needed and fresh sheets too.
There are some minor repairs needed in the rooms, due to water damage and it can get a little loud to the back from Thursday to Saturday (not all days it changes) but nothing crazy. A bigger fridge would also be better.
The locations is great, restaurants everywhere, also right next to the hotel, personal recommendations are: Kintsugi for a amazing crafted experience and Antú for Lunch.
We stayed for our honeymoon! The hotel was beautiful - very stylish!
The staff were wonderful and made our stay memorable by putting roses on our bed and a complimentary bottle of wine on arrival!
Breakfast was ok - basic choices and served a purpose.
One thing - the bed - it wasn’t good! This may be personal choice - my husband found it ok- but I woke up so sore every morning, I even used the pillows from the sofa because it was like using balloons otherwise. And we did loose our lights twice - the staff were apologetic and quick to rectify this however.
Other than this - our stay was wonderful!
The room is cozy and the staff is very friendly. We had a very great time to stay at Prim&Proper in Porto for three nights. If I would visit Porto again, I will definitely stay at Prim&Proper.
