Great stay. Even though the hotel is a bit old dated, the managers do an amazing job in keeping it. They make their best to satisfy the customers’ needs. The hotel is close enough to the city’s historic center, so you can even walk there. My only recommendation would be to change the stairs’ carpet.

Juan, his wife and his other friend who makes breakfast make you feel you are part of the family. A wonderful Porto experience. They even folded our washing. They cleaned the room perfectly every day, changed the sheets daily and Juan gave me a bottle of port to enjoy. The hotel is small basic but it has everything you need and it is far enough away from the worst of the 'touristica' troubles of the center. Good restaurants are nearby and we walked easily to the river and sights. Very nice people.

Don't judge a book by its cover...

So I booked this hotel because the listing said "..close to Sandeman Port cave". It's not. On arrival the appearance looks bad, and it's on a real busy road. I wasn't happy. But, my booking was non refundable. I wasn't going to stay but I was persuaded to look at the room. The room was away from the street and had a very good bed. I decided to stay and I had a very quiet and comfortable stay. A very good nights sleep.... Still had a really long walk to the port cellar....

Always felt Welcomed

Had a good experience, overall. Even though facility was not in heart of Porto, it was easy enough to get there. Walking is feasible only 15 minutes, easier was a bus stop right outside hotel. Cable TV with multiple English channels.Very good wireless were I could watch Netflix on my tablet if I wanted too. Owner and his staff never made me feel unwelcomed. Owner spoke English and was always very helpful. His staff tryed very hard to help also, if they could not comunicate they would call the owner on the phone to answer any questions.

Sol de Nave

The owners are very nice. This place is in need of updating. The room was small with uncomfortable beds and pillows. There was no circulation of air and a dog that barks randomly at night. The walls are very thin and the door to the room doesn't close properly. The place is clean but smells of cheap disinfectant.

Recommended

This was a good place to stay. It was clean and the staff were always available and ready to help in any way, I would totally recommend a stay here should you find yourself in Porto. When I went to buy some cereals from the supermarket and put them in my room I came back the following day to find they´d even left me a bowl and a spoon to eat them with which they continued to do, and then wash up for me, every day! However, there are just a couple points that I had not noticed anyone else make before which I think is worth noting. This place is at least 12-15 mins walk from the metro station, although there is a bus service which leaves from outside the door. There are also pictures of a nice garden which my Dad got the benefit of from his room but there was no access to it from my room so if he hadn´t been there I wouldn´t have ever been able to go in it even though we were both paying the same price. So perhaps room pricing should reflect this? It also stated that there are microwaves in every room which is not actually true. When I asked about this they said that there was just one downstairs which I could bring food to and they would warm it up for me so that was okay but just to point out that the information was not entirely accurate. Apart from that, everything was very good. Oh, and I loved the fact that it was away from town so no noise from nightclubs at night etc!

This budget hotel far exceeded my expectations

Sol da Nove is a great hotel for a very reasonable price. I stayed in a room in the back on the second floor. It was spacious, extremely clean and quiet. My room had access to a lovely terrace. I stayed out there for a few hours, reading and relaxing on one of the lounge chairs. John, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. Sol da Nove is a bit far from the city center, but there is lots to see along the way if you walk. A main bus line runs right near the hotel too.
