Our stay at Torel Avantgarde was exceptional. The location and views were stunning, and the staff provided impeccable service throughout our visit. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of high-quality options. Our room was uniquely designed, with incredible attention to detail that made the experience feel truly special. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the welcome drink on arrival and the chocolates before bed, which made our stay even more memorable. The only improvement we’d suggest is providing more complimentary water in the rooms, as one refillable bottle for two guests wasn’t quite sufficient. Overall, Torel Avantgarde exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it for a luxurious and unique stay in Porto with good value for money.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this hotel! From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by absolutely everything—the stunning property, the warm atmosphere, and, most of all, the incredible people who work here. The staff is beyond attentive and friendly, going out of their way to make every moment special. I’m especially grateful for the exceptional care they showed my sweet Maggie 🐶—they treated her like royalty! I’m so thankful for such a delightful experience and can’t wait to return to this gem of a place.

The bed was massive, and so comfortable! The staff were very helpful and friendly, and it felt as if everything was in relatively comfortable walking distance.

The only thing that we didn't like is the TV facility in the room. It is not a smart TV, quite outdated with no online features, no YouTube or stream TV access, with no USB or HDTV ports. I think that the management has to look onto it and perhaps make a small investment.

Room is spacious, bed is comfortable, breakfast is fantastic. But the most memorial was the staff: very attentive, polite and helpful. All staff are quite young, energetic and eager to help.

Very little! Though more hooks in the bedroom (even inside the wardrobe) would’ve been helpful.

February) but the morning sun shining through the windows made it feel warm. Staff were lovely – nothing too much trouble – with the exception of the main man in the restaurant, who had an abrupt, brusque and offhand manner. The Avantgarde is just ten-minutes (ish) walk up the road to Livraria Lello and the Torre dos Clerigos (don’t miss the Spiritus illuminations!) and around 20 minutes to the airport (our Uber cost just €11!). There’s a lovely park nearby that’s worth visiting, with peacocks and more great views. Fab views of the both Porto and the Gaia side of the river from the hotel. The steam room, sauna and pools felt like a real selling point when we booked, but we found so much to do in Porto during our six days day that we didn’t use them.

Lady at reception was not kind, and spoiled the impression, she recommend us restaurant, which was closed for lunch, as result we walked through the whole city, for understanding it. I ask her about water and she sending me to bar…

Amazing room with river view, a lot of space, nice pillows and mattress

The lighting in the room could be a bit stronger. The towels should be softer.

Wonderful location with the views to be admired day and night. What a luxury to wake up and be able to enjoy slow morning in the balcony with such a stunning panorama around! Quiet place, stylish interior, very comfortable beds. Helpful personnel available also at night. They took care of our car as well. I truly recomend for a relaxing stay in Porto!

The staff, the facilities

The staff at Torel Avantgarde exceeded our expectations! They were extremely attentive the moment we drove into the driveway. The front desk staff allowed us to check in early, provided us "take away" breakfast package for our early airport departure and had our car ready to go at 6am! The hotel is beautiful but it's the friendly and hardworking staff makes this place a triple 5 star!!

Amazing stay at the boutique hotel in Porto. The hotel is impeccably designed with great facilities, 10/10 views and is in a good location to explore Porto. Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and will definitely be returning next time I am in Porto.

Minor things - I would simplify the menu at the restaurant, if you want to have dinner there more than once it is already too much

The hotel is very comfortable with a very characteristic style (not for everyone , but definitely avant-garde like it intends), an amazing view, great facilities and most of all an impressive group of staff - effective , nice and caring
