Travelling with our family (2 adults, 2 kids) we stayed in a Suite. It was super comfortable -- great bedding, ammenties, room services, etc.. Our room had a fantastic balcony overlooking the Bessa area.

We choose this hotel to be near family in the Bessa/Bovista area. It was a very short walk to the Bessa stadium for soccer/football fans. Also within walking distance to City Tour Hop On/Off buses. This hotel is not situated in the heart of Porto -- if that is what you are looking for.

I stayed at the Bessa Hotel for nearly a week as part of a conference I attended in Porto. The hotel is just great, the rooms, the service, the products are excellent. The only shortcoming might be its location, but if you do not mind paying 5-7 euros for taxi to city center this hotel will not let you down.

This hotel is a wonderfully designed hotel with spacious comfortable rooms, with lots of pampering feel to it. Service is kind and helpful, and all extra services reasonable priced. I have enjoyed my stay here very much and warmly recommend the place to anyone else visiting Porto.
Only one shortcoming is the hotel's location which is far away from the historic center, as well as from a metro station. However, if you can afford taxis back and forth, this is a great spot to embark from for meetings and leisure travel.

We stayed for three nights in total, either side of a football match, having been stranded for an extra night due to the General Strike. This hotel is located in a smart residential part of town, on the side of the Boavista stadium. Ultra modern, stylish and luxurious, the staff are uber professional and efficient, yet supremly friendly. Free internet access helped us sort out travel arrangements after the Strike was over. Rooms are spotless, non-smoking, spacious and stylish, and the beds very comfortable. Great city views from upper floors. We got a great price so it was excellent value for money. I've stayed in 5 star hotels in the same area before - this felt 5 star at a 4 star price. 10 out of 10 all round for the Bessa.
