The breakfast was not great for a 5 star hotel. i constantly asked for refills. Food was slow to appear. there were no sockets near the bed, a real inconvenience! the lack of bedside sockets is inexcusable in a modern hotel. the hotel's casino needed a shuttle service. It wasn't offered.

The breakfast had a good choice of foods. It was also lovely to have a heated outdoor pool. I booked a room with a sea view. I highly recommend this. The bus transfer to Porto was great!

The noise level at night was unacceptable.

The hotel had board walks along the coast. These board walks extend to Esphino. There are easy train links into Porto from either Esphino or Granja stations, though the parking was expensive.
