Reviews for Hotel do Parque

Review 1:1. slight smell of musty (check corners) didn't put us off though. 2. Balconies unsuitable for children. 3. No bar but not a problem.

Review 2:1. LOCATION. 5 min walk to town. lovely views over estuary. 2. PARKING. reserved & security. 3. STAFF. very helpful. local knowledge. spoke English. 4. TV & big bed & modern bathroom. Excellent. 5. Locate people very welcoming.

Review 3:They charged my credit card 3 times for the same night stay.be very careful with your credit card!! At first they told me my card had been rejected then they over charged me.

Review 4:Good location and friendly staff

Review 5:The place is getting old and rough sround the edges BUT still totally functional

Review 6:Good basic access at a very reasonable price. A very generous breakfast.

Review 7:Do not make the same mistake as I did and book a room in this hotel. The rooms on the website are quite different than what you find. When I entered the room, I felt like I have just entered a time machine and was in the 70's once again. I closed the door and opened once again just to make sure I was not dreaming. I was enjoying my trip so far but since I checked-in, I almost lost all my will to live. The corridors and the rooms are smelly and our bathtub was not clean. I was supposed to make sweet love to my wife that night but the mood was just depressing. Breakfast, basically the most incomplete I have ever experienced. I had a second breakfast downtown, as soon as I checked out. In conclusion, next time I go to Viana, I will spend a little more and book a decent room at Axis.

Review 8:Absolutely nothing.

Review 9:No bad experiences, just observations. A Mini Bar/fridge in the room would have been really appreciated. No chairs to sit on Balcony. Staffing of the GF Bar could well result in more usage. Whilst the breakfasts were adequate, some daily variation would have been welcome, plus some really cold milk rather than lukewarm for cereals.

Review 10:Just far enough from town centre for quietness but close enough for easy walking access to restaurants & shops. Easy Parking. Room spotless with super view over river. Lovely bathroom with superb shower. Staff polite, very helpful & always had a smiling greeting, We enjoyed our stay.

Review 11:The room had a safe, but the key was 1.5 euro per day to hire. Prices in the hotel bar seemed to be the highest in town. There is no fridge in the room.

Review 12:The pool.

Review 13:The place is getting a bit old and worn around the edges-but still quite acceptable and at the price they charge, unbelievably good value

Review 14:Good location, comfortable bed, hot shower, generous breakfast

Review 15:Decor was slightly dated but there are newly refurbished rooms to choose from and the wifi had a poor connection at times.

Review 16:Perfect location, just a 10 minute walk into the main town. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Food and beverages very well priced from the bar.

Review 17:Staff were excellent, very helpful with local knowledge and recommendations and with negotiating better deals with the local bike shop for cycle hire

Review 18:Breakfast was ok but plenty of it The old blanket between the sheets

Review 19:The staff we're very helpful, especially Maria bed very comfortable and great shower

Review 20:Nothing to dislike!

Review 21:Everything. The staff were just so helpful and pointed us to a great restaurant the Tasquinha da Praca. One of our top three hotels in a walk through Portugal and Spain

Review 22:We chose the executive room which had a lovely modern bathroom and the terrace overlooked the pool. Reception staff were lovely and immediately gave us swimming towels for the pool as it was an extremely hot day. Fantastic to have plenty of parking outside your hotel, breakfast was adequate and we really enjoyed our stay at Viana do Castello

Review 23:The noise! All through the night we could hear everything from above, below and the sides. Not to mention the trains running past and cars on the cobbled road outside. Add to this the uncomfortable, lumpy beds and this is really not the place to get a good nights sleep!

Review 24:the only good thing was the reduced price...it would have been even more of a disappointment at the normal price!

Review 25:Interior, rooms and bathrooms way too old and in need of urgent restoration Cleanliness below par Deficient sound proofing Breakfast with limited choice (no fruits, etc.) Insufficient waiters at breakfast

Review 26:Price was affordable Very nice view at breakfast Free parking

Review 27:This is my 2nd visit within a week Would recommend and return again Although some common features were a little dated the rooms were total uodated along with the corridors Staff was great- The Breakfast was okay a little on the light side but certainly ok as it was included. Coffee was not good- Have Tea

Review 28:Staff was friendly and helpful- The hotel was a little dated but very clean- Easy walk to the center of town. Nice breakfast and served up on the top floor-

Review 29:Worn-out equipment and furniture. Breakfast is worse than a bad joke, almost impossible to eat anything. I would never go back to this hotel.

Review 30:Location.

Review 31:Would have liked tea and coffee making facilities in room, and would be prepared to pay a little more for this. Also would have liked fruit and yoghurt and a selection of cereals at breakfast as well as the lovely bread cheese, and meat. Only cornflakes were available.

Review 32:Room was a great size, spotlessley clean, comfortable bed, good shower. Breakfast basic, but filling. Hotel is near all amenities, with a fifteen minute walk into the centre of town. Loads of good eating places, museums and churches.

Review 33:The breakfast is included, but is a little basic: really fresh though. Crisp and soft bread, ham and cheese, cereals etc. Not brilliant fruit juice. Served on the top floor with great views.

Review 34:Great english speaking staff who recognise you. Nothing is too difficult, considering this is only 3 star and the price per room, I couldn,t do better. Great free parking, bar open when you want and always a smile. Did not use the pool, but hey it is there for you.

Review 35:There were four very small single beds in the room with very little space to move around. Parking is awful. If you are planning to leave with your car and returning late, good luck in trying to find a parking space. Breakfast was very basic, nothing impressive.

Review 36:Convenient to downtown and all the great sightseeing activities. Beautiful panoramic view of the city.

Review 37:Breakfast - pathetic with watery juice, no eggs, soggy croissants, luke warm coffee, no honey etc. Small room with no balcony. No restaurant. No atmosphere - totally impersonal.

Review 38:Pool and garden. Close to centre. View from breakfast room.

Review 39:The lifts were very busy at breakfast time, the alternative was to use the stairs which were dark even with the security lights.

Review 40:The rooms were comfortable and clean. The staff were helpful and alert to your needs. The position was good on the edge of the old quarter where there were an abundance of excellent restaurants

Review 101:breakfast (very poor) Sound insulation Old style key Bad tv reception

Review 102:Location Pool Living area (altough outdated) Flat screen TV Free parking

Review 103:Breakfast very basic no proper facility for boiling water for tea, they use a domestic kettle and a bottle of water. No fruit but lots of bread.

Review 104:Location you can walk to the town and do not need to use the car. The reception staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Review 105:I was perfectly happy with the breakfast but my husband would have appreciated yogurt and fruit.

Review 106:I liked the hotel reception - especially the morning person. Also the room was a good size.

Review 107:The hotel, once inside, is very nice, though the outside appearance lets it down slightly especially the car park at the rear which is very scruffy and needs a a good tidy up. The town itself is really nice

Review 108:I guess it **USED** to be a wonderful hotel 40 years ago. Now I can't actually understand where this 8.0 ranking in Booking.com comes from. I guess this is only because these guests were given a room on the 3rd floor: entirely new and modern. We didn't get this lucky (4th floor), and a stinky room with stinky '70s (!) moquette & curtains, old sheets and a yellow-stained blanket was what we were given. Oh, and we paid €1.50 for a mini bottle of water.

Review 109:Position; parking; huge room. I am SURE that if you ask and get a room on the 3rd floor you'll find this hotel wonderful. In our case, for as much as a 40-year-old hotel room can be clean, it was clean.

Review 110:We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Excellent value for money. Lovely big room with all facilities. Excellent breakfast buffet. Also strong wifi connection. We definitely recommend this hotel

Review 111:The renovations have been done superbly. Do not be put off by the outside of the building, inside, it is clean, warm and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful with the language.

Review 112:The breakfast room an lobby decoration. That is a nightmare!

Review 113:What I like the most was the staff, very helful and nice. We were traveling with a baby and had to prepare meals after hours. The room was clean. It was a good price rate/confort combination.

Review 114:Most disappointing breakfast on our trip - no yogurt, no fruit, no eggs, mediocre juice, ham, cheese, no whole grain rolls or bread. They took out the bathtub when remodeling, leaving a long shower.

Review 115:Tastefully decorated, good sized room. Decent view of the bridge and river.

Review 116:A very good hotel for the one night we were there. For 2 adults and 2 little kids we've had enough room, because you get 2 rooms next to eachother, with a door between them. Very good price for four persons, although we went offseason. Close to the centre of the lovely town of Viana.

Review 117:Breakfast was good as far as it went, but a bit basic - fruit and yoghourt would have been welcome.

Review 118:Staff friendly and helpful, comfortable room, situated just outside the centre and relatively calm.

Review 119:The breakfast was basic, but good for the price.

Review 120:Nice hotel with swimming pool and big car park within walking distance of town. The room was spacious, clean and quiet. Nice breakfast room overlooking the river. The overall value for money was excellent.

Review 121:I would improve breakfast a little bit: some fruit, better orange juice and better coffee.

Review 122:This is a well maintained 40 years old hotel. Everything is antique, with lovely retro (70's) furniture all around. Our room was comfortable, very clean and a balcony with a great view. The price was great.

Review 123:Whilst enjoyed the time warp aspect of public areas, the bedrooms really are very tired and the bathroom really not good.

Review 124:Really helpful staff. Close to restaurants and old town. We enjoyed the ferry to beach and the museum. Liked quirky 70's decor in public areas. Excellent value for money.

Review 125:Family room was very cramped, four beds squeezed in. A fridge in the room would also have been good for cold drinks - it was very hot when we were there

Review 126:The staff were lovely - went above and beyond to be helpful, friendly and cheeky with our children. Great.

Review 127:Hotel was pretty old and old fashioned. No balcony, no mini-bar in the rooms, breakast was pretty poor for 3 star hotel (a little fresh fruit, yoghurt, fresh juice would have helped.)

Review 128:The price of stay was good, pool area and location were nice.
