What guests think
At Torel Avantgarde, travelers praise exceptionally friendly, attentive staff, artful boutique design, and sweeping river views, with many enjoying a quality breakfast, lively bar and restaurant, and a quiet yet convenient base for exploring Porto.
Rooms are stylish and often comfortable with standout tubs or balconies, but several guests found some units small or very dark, with compact showers, occasional noise, weak water pressure, or sporadic hot water. Cleanliness is generally strong, though a few report inconsistent housekeeping and isolated issues like odors or a pest. Location is walkable but uphill from the river, and some noted unclear extra charges or refund inflexibility. Expect a polished boutique stay with excellent service and memorable views.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute boutique hotel. We were close to the city center, a lot of the places were walkable distances. Parking was on-site(we had to reserve a spot in advance). Breakfast buffet was really good. Service and staff were really friendly. We loved our stay and would definitely stay here again.

The property has a unique and fabulous internal decoration in both the general areas and bedrooms. Everywhere was kept clean and tidy. The staff were great from the moment you approach the front door and are welcomed to the hotel. The pool and restaurant has beautiful views over the city and river views to the old port houses on the other side. The breakfasts were gorgeous and food we had was all very good. It is easy walking from the hotel to the beautiful areas of Porto. Within a few minutes you are either on the river front or in the main old city and all it has to offer. If you want to be well looked after and pampered in a fabulous hotel within Porto you can't go wrong with this hotel.

The star here is the staff. They cannot do enough for you. They helped us with restaurant/taxi bookings, printing, questions, all sorts. They do everything they can to ensure you have a great trip. The hotel is gorgeous - an excellent choice in this city. It is up the hill and set away from the busy Ribeira area. Our room had stunning views. The balcony is great with table & chairs, shaded and private. There is a large concrete bath, big enough for two, which gives stunning sky views. Large comfortable bed lots of pillows plenty of large towels, nice toiletries provided. Big wardrobe with lots of hangers. Rainfall shower is lovely and nice toiletries. The blackout curtains are excellent (but not wide enough - eye mask needed). Breakfast is excellent. All the usual cooked produce, cheeses/hams/fruits/spreads etc but just with an extra touch of class. There is also an 'egg station', where you can order poached eggs, eggs benedict, omelet etc and it is made fresh and brought to your table. It is very much worth the money. Food is available all the way until 11:30 p.m., in the bar or the restaurant both provide a really nice selection and high quality produce dishes. The cocktail barman is extremely good at mixing. When we stayed here it was a major festival in a city, and the staff put on a great party for the guests. Would highly recommend staying here as a couple for up to a week.

Excellent boutique hotel property with wonderful staff. Good value for money as well. I would definitely stay there again. The only negative I would mention is that cleaning service was often very late in the day, and not always consistent in cleaning (missing amenities, glasses/cups only superficially cleaned, etc.). But overall, excellent experience.

My husband and I loved our stay at the Torel Avantgarde. We were forced to make a last minute reservation after finding that the AriBnB we reserved was horrible and not at all as advertised. Last minute reservations can be tricky when you are also traveling with two small dogs. However, the front desk staff responded to our inquiry immediately and we were warmly welcomed upon arrival. All of the rooms are named after artists and we were assigned the Van Gogh Suite. Like Van Gogh, the room was dry and moody. It was also very spacious with lots of room for our luggage. Housekeeping brought up two beds for our dogs and treats. They also offered bowls but we had brought our own. We were also given a bottle of champagne and offered two drinks at the bar. The bed was very comfortable and I slept quite well. Everyone at the hotel treated our dogs like celebrities. We were even able to bring them downstairs for breakfast and dinner because we had them in a stroller. The breakfast buffet is great. The bread that is served at the hotel is amongst the best I have eaten in my life. The staff was so accommodating and professional. One person asked us where we were going for the day and offered us lunch suggestions. The manager also comped our parking fees for each day because of an unfortunate experience we had at dinner. They also left a card in our car wishing us a safe journey and provided a bottle of water. Great staff and accommodations!

The hotel is gorgeous - an excellent choice in this city. It is up the hill and set away from the busy Ribeira area. Our room had stunning views. The balcony is great with table & chairs, shaded and private. There is a large concrete bath, big enough for two, which gives stunning sky views. Large comfortable bed lots of pillows plenty of large towels, nice toiletries provided. Big wardrobe with lots of hangers. Rainfall shower is lovely and nice toiletries. The blackout curtains are excellent (but not wide enough - eye mask needed). Breakfast is excellent. All the usual cooked produce, cheeses/hams/fruits/spreads etc but just with an extra touch of class. There is also an 'egg station', where you can order poached eggs, eggs benedict, omelet etc and it is made fresh and brought to your table. It is very much worth the money. Food is available all the way until 11:30 p.m., in the bar or the restaurant both provide a really nice selection and high quality produce dishes. The cocktail barman is extremely good at mixing.

Overall this is a high standard of hotel and the staff are very keen to please and help. Sadly the rooms and the hotel processes are not Five Star. The kitchen is clearly unable at times to service the guests in a timely manner especially at breakfast and evening meals. Delays can be 10-20 minutes for a poached egg or food on the buffet to be replenished. This happened multiple times during our stay. We also booked an Executive Double Room, Balcony (Superior). The first room we were allocated was not as described in the booking. To be honest it if Pablo had not resolved this issue and allocated us a room similar to the one in the images we would have refused the booking and sorted another hotel. We consider the first rooms allocated as very sub standard. Small, dark, cramped and not in keeping with the description or a five star hotel. More a Premier Inn Hotel!! Even though the room we were allocated was acceptable as design and space it was totally impractical for people staying seven days!!. There was limited storage four clothes hangers for two adults, limited shelves. No drawers. The bedside units were boxes rather than best side drawers. Consequence was we had to request 10 hangers, had toiletries and plugs etc on most if not all surfaces. The result a very attractive room when unoccupied looks cluttered and not stylish. There was limited wall hanging for coats or places to dry towels as a result they were changed every day.

We stayed 2 nights at the hotel. The view and the location are magnificent. We had an issue with the water in our room, and had to shower with cold water both days. The staff, although super friendly and most of them very professional, couldn’t figure out how to solve our problem. I don’t think it’s ok to have those kinda issues, with no fixable solution (changing rooms, discount on the price, etc), on a 600 USD per night hotel. I do not recommend staying here.

I am in the luxury hospitality space in Mexico , running my own luxury villa rental company and after all my travels in Europe and around the globe with an affinity and appreciation for luxury experience, I have to say that this hotel reached the peaks of customer service excellence. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and very on point for pretty much everything. I was really impressed! Thank you to the team and hotel for creating a memorable experience.

Great service, great views and very comfortable beds. The team also arranged transfers for me and were kind enough to accommodate a few last minute requests. It’s clear they do what they can to make your stay enjoyable. Highly recommend.

The star here is the staff. They cannot do enough for you. They helped us with restaurant/taxi bookings, printing, questions, all sorts. They do everything they can to ensure you have a great trip. The hotel is gorgeous - an excellent choice in this city. It is up the hill and set away from the busy Ribeira area. Our room had stunning views. The balcony is great with table & chairs, shaded and private. There is a large concrete bath, big enough for two, which gives stunning sky views. Large comfortable bed lots of pillows plenty of large towels, nice toiletries provided. Big wardrobe with lots of hangers. Rainfall shower is lovely and nice toiletries. The blackout curtains are excellent (but not wide enough - eye mask needed). Breakfast is excellent. All the usual cooked produce, cheeses/hams/fruits/spreads etc but just with an extra touch of class. There is also an 'egg station', where you can order poached eggs, eggs benedict, omelet etc and it is made fresh and brought to your table. It is very much worth the money. Food is available all the way until 11:30 p.m., in the bar or the restaurant both provide a really nice selection and high quality produce dishes. The cocktail barman is extremely good at mixing. When we stayed here it was a major festival in a city, and the staff put on a great party for the guests. Would highly recommend staying here as a couple for up to a week.

We always stay at Torel properties in Portugal and this was our first time at Hotel Avantagarde. The staff is amazing! Erica at the front desk reception went above and beyond to help us with anything we needed and Roman was also extremely helpful with tips on anything we asked of him. the Food service and quality at breakfast is OUTSTANDING!!

N'a pas voulu nous rembourser les 2 nuits ou un geste commercial (750€) alors que notre a été annulé par la compagnie. Je trouve cette attitude exagérée. J'aurai compris qu'une partie soit retenue, mais pas l'intégralité.

Really loved the stay. We upgraded to a suite and it was a pleasant experience all around. The things driving my review down from 5 to 4 are small and not deal breakers but worth noting to give feedback. Positives are everything imaginable we were happy with. This is a beautiful hotel and feels like a luxury experience with kind and attentive staff Negatives Some of the things they do are not very clear/slightly confusing and the additional small charges can add up/get thrown on top if you’re not vigilant. It’s not the end of the world but something to note. For example we were told we’d have a complimentary drink when we checked in (similar to a 4star hotel in Lisbon) we decided on night 4/4 to use the drink and went to the bar and ordered. I mentioned we were doing the complimentary drink and staff didn’t say anything to correct us when we ordered 2 Porto tonics. At the end we finished and I was given the bill. They clarified that the drinks were not free, only red/white wine, etc etc etc. it was $20 so I paid it without complaint. My issue here is this wasn’t clear after a few conversation points. Not a deal breaker but worth dropping. Same with checking out. When checking out they showed the bill for the drinks as mentioned but then there was another $25 charge for “city taxes” I agreed to it, paid and went on my way. My complaint is this was handled up front or mentioned when checking it. Not terrible, not even bad and understandable but the clarification early lacked

Our stay at Torel Avantgarde was nothing short of impeccable. As a gold member of Hilton and Marriott Hotels, I can confidently say the service we received here was top-notch. Every detail was meticulously attended to by the outstanding staff, making our visit truly memorable. The staff at Torel were invaluable resources, assisting us with everything from selecting restaurants to arranging excursions. Their most significant assistance came when they helped my husband secure a car rental, which was conveniently delivered to the hotel on our last day, allowing us to explore the stunning Douro Valley. Our accommodations in the Coco Chanel room were extraordinary. The room featured a Roman tub facing the river and a private balcony, offering a luxurious and relaxing experience. It was worth every penny. To the Torel Avantgarde family, thank you for making our first visit to Porto, Portugal, extra sweet and memorable. We look forward to returning.

The hotel staff was awful. We were having issues with our flight out of Newark due to government shutdown and had to cancel our flight and the hotel would not assist us with a cancellation and refund for the reservation even though we had given advance noticed of the cancellation and the trip cancellation was not in our hands, it was a flight issue.

Very good view of the river from our room. Breakfast was really good. The hotel was nicely decorated but an uphill walk to town center. The rooms are small but comfortable and chic. They seemed understaffed in restaurant and bar. Seagulls were off and on screaming at night.

Great location to walk into town or grab an Uber, and it’s on the trolly line. Impressive breakfast buffet with mimosas and cappuccinos…made to order eggs. And a nice lounge to hang out. It’s perfect for a couple. Remember it’s a boutique hotel and it’s Porto so it’s smaller than what you might get elsewhere. But worth the stay.

The hotel is gorgeous - an excellent choice in this city. It is up the hill and set away from the busy Ribeira area. Our room had stunning views. The balcony is great with table & chairs, shaded and private. There is a large concrete bath, big enough for two, which gives stunning sky views. Large comfortable bed lots of pillows plenty of large towels, nice toiletries provided. Big wardrobe with lots of hangers. Rainfall shower is lovely and nice toiletries. The blackout curtains are excellent (but not wide enough - eye mask needed). Breakfast is excellent. All the usual cooked produce, cheeses/hams/fruits/spreads etc but just with an extra touch of class. There is also an 'egg station', where you can order poached eggs, eggs benedict, omelet etc and it is made fresh and brought to your table. It is very much worth the money. Food is available all the way until 11:30 p.m., in the bar or the restaurant both provide a really nice selection and high quality produce dishes. The cocktail barman is extremely good at mixing. When we stayed here it was a major festival in a city, and the staff put on a great party for the guests. Would highly recommend staying here as a couple for up to a week.

Torel Avantgarde was the perfect place for our trip to Porto. From the warm welcome we received from the staff to the delicious breakfast buffet and omelet station each morning, we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The room was very spacious and unique, and the property was beyond beautiful and close to the river as well as numerous restaurants, shops and attractions. We will definitely stay here again if we find our way back to Porto and would recommend to anyone and everyone who is visiting. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Overall this is a high standard of hotel and the staff are very keen to please and help. Sadly the rooms and the hotel processes are not Five Star. The kitchen is clearly unable at times to service the guests in a timely manner especially at breakfast and evening meals. Delays can be 10-20 minutes for a poached egg or food on the buffet to be replenished. This happened multiple times during our stay. We also booked an Executive Double Room, Balcony (Superior). The first room we were allocated was not as described in the booking. To be honest it if Pablo had not resolved this issue and allocated us a room similar to the one in the images we would have refused the booking and sorted another hotel. We consider the first rooms allocated as very sub standard. Small, dark, cramped and not in keeping with the description or a five star hotel. More a Premier Inn Hotel!! Even though the room we were allocated was acceptable as design and space it was totally impractical for people staying seven days!!. There was limited storage four clothes hangers for two adults, limited shelves. No drawers. The bedside units were boxes rather than best side drawers. Consequence was we had to request 10 hangers, had toiletries and plugs etc on most if not all surfaces. The result a very attractive room when unoccupied looks cluttered and not stylish. There was limited wall hanging for coats or places to dry towels as a result they were changed every day.
