The hotel is centrally located and has been completely (or maybe 80%) rennovated. The rooms are new and are excellent. Very modern. Simply perfect. I was told by the staff that the official innauguration will be in October. The swimming pool will also be rennovated in the winter but can be used (although quite small). The view from the pool...

They say they are four stars. You have got to be kidding me?? Do not waste your money on this hotel. We got a suite with the fold out sofa from hell! I called the front desk and the response I got was "That's what it is here in Portugal" I ask for blankets to pad the mattress and I... More

Good hotel with rooftop pool. Helpful and professional staff. Driving is a nightmare getting to it. There seems to be only one way in, involving a tunnel. Just because you can see it doesn't mean you're there. Allow plenty of time, but it's worth the effort. Maybe it was just us.

We only stayed at the Turismo because it was where Titan HiTours booked the party for 2 nights before their cruise on the Douro (Costa Verde & Douro River). A second rate hotel which chimed with the second,no third rate, service provided throughout the trip by Titan Hi Tours. (If you are thinking of going with them, maybe you ought... More

I stayed in this hotel in mid September 2010. The rooms were large, the staff were generally helpful, although one spoke virtually no English. Another gave me incorrect information on the availability of taxis at a tourist location which ended up in a near disaster because I had no way to get home and it would have been a two... More

Stayed in the Hotel Turismo for 3 nights in a suite with 3 people and an infant. The hotel could definitely use a renovation, the decor is drab and dated and it feels kind of grungy on the inside. Breakfast is included, but it's not very good... I'd recommend going to one of the many nice cafe's on Avenida Liberdade... More

I stayed with my wife, as part of a bigger group, in this hotel, for one night only in May 2010. I found this hotel very nice. The location is excellent. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Hotel staff was helpful, even if we arrived very late in the night. The breakfast is delicious, variegated and really good!

We really loved the hotel. It was in a good location and the room was excellent. We stayed in a two bedroom suite and it was still quite affordable. We had a fine meal in the restaurant and the breakfast that was included was probably the best I've had at any hotel.
