If you fancy a lie-in, no worries – 24-hour room service means you can get grub delivered straight to your door. Start your day right with a whopper of a buffet breakfast, served daily until 11 AM (for a small fee, mind).

Sports & Entertainment

When you're not out conquering Porto's streets, the hotel offers some proper chill-out zones. Grab one of their rental bikes and explore the city on two wheels – proper British summer holiday vibes, even if you're not in Britain.
