I had a mixed experience at Intercontinental Porto. While the location was fantastic and the atmosphere striking, my initial room was noisy due to a karaoke spot nearby, which made it challenging to sleep. The staff provided professional service, but I faced issues with my check-out process, which left a sour note during an otherwise lovely stay.

My first room was extremely noisy at night, especially due to the karaoke events nearby. After three sleepless nights, I was finally granted a room change. The new room was spacious and comfortable, but the bathroom design could have been more private.

I had an overall excellent stay at the Intercontinental Porto - Palacio Das Cardosas. The location was unbeatable, right in the heart of Porto, although some construction nearby was a minor annoyance (at least the staff kept us informed!). The room was spacious and luxurious, featuring a comfortable bed that allowed for great sleep. However, I did have some issues with the concierge, who initially provided a poor restaurant recommendation. Fortunately, Barbara, one of the managers, stepped in and sorted it out promptly.

I had a really mixed experience at Intercontinental Porto. The hotel is stunning and perfectly located in the heart of the old city, making it easy to explore. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but the service was unfortunately lacking and really detracted from the overall enjoyment of my stay. The breakfast was good but showed some inconsistencies that indicated it might not fully meet 5-star standards. Overall, the charm of the hotel was overshadowed by the issues with service.
