Bom Sucesso Hotel by gaiarooms

Clean and modern hotel and helpful staff everywhere in the hotel.I did have a mishap with the room facing the street(very noisy) but they provided a quieter room facing the back. Breakfast was very good and had ample seating. The only thing I did not like was the fact that there was nowhere to put clothes so I used the table the one chair in the room.

A 10 night stay while in Porto. Traveled solo. Overall a decent stay. The hotel is presumably very new, building construction completed in 2025. Positives: - Location is decent, a 20 minute walk from the city centre and it's close to a metro station, although the pink line construction probably affects the metro on this area. - There's a shopping centre and a good quality food court (Mercado Bom Sucesso) just around the corner. - The breakfast for portuguese standards was good: fresh juices, different kind of breads, yoghurt, fresh fruits and desserts were on the breakfast table. - The staff seemed friendly. - The interior was modern and rather clean. Housekeeping functioned well. - Good air conditioning that can be adjusted from the panel. Negatives: - The hotel is located on the side of a busy road that causes traffic during day and night. If you are staying in a room that is located on the side the street, you will need earplugs to sleep. I normally use earplugs during sleep so this was not a big deal for me, but the noise level is rather disturbing for a newly-built hotel. The windows simply do not have adequate noise dampening qualities that you would expect from a modern building. Such a shame. YOU WILL NEED TO BRING EARPLUGS. - The shower drainage was problematic. If you take a shower that is more than 5 minutes, the water will pool on the floor of the shower and will leak from the shower cabinet onto the floor. Kind of tells you about the build quality of this hotel, really. - Soundproofing isn't all that good. You are going to hear noises from the corridor and possibly from other rooms. - No iron & ironing board on the room. Usually 4 star hotels have those. - The bed was surprisingly hard. For a 80kg person the bed was too firm, the bed was probably designed for a heavier person (over 100kgs). There were four pillows on the bed, two of those were memory-foam-like hard style which I did not like. Overall the hotel is a decent budget choice for a short stay especially if you're traveling alone. Choose it if you get a good deal, otherwise I'm sure there are better hotels available. I would not pick this hotel if you are traveling with your companion or if you are sensitive to noise from the street.

We stayed at this hotel for a week. Overall, it is a very nice hotel with a great location, just outside the city center and rated four stars. We chose to pay a bit more to ensure a good night’s sleep and to avoid the busy streets. Unfortunately, from the very first night, we realized the sound insulation was poor. We were on the 7th floor, yet it felt like we were on the 2nd floor with the windows open. Noise from other rooms was also very noticeable, and the doors were especially loud. Every time someone arrived late at night, we woke up again. On the weekend, there was an event outside that kept us awake for hours. We reported the issue to the staff. They did try to help, but unfortunately, there were no other rooms available, except for an accessible room next to the kitchen machines, which would have been noisy as well. After we mentioned the noise, we felt like the staff stopped greeting us, which felt a bit unwelcoming, but that aside. The rooms are not very spacious, but they offer everything you need for a hotel stay. Some minor damage was noticeable, like the worn rubber at the bottom of the shower door. Small things like that should be fixed, as they make the room feel less clean. That said, the location is great, only a 30-minute walk or a short Uber ride to the city center. The fitness room is also very good and has all the basics for a decent workout. It is a shame we had such poor sleep, because otherwise, the hotel would definitely deserve a higher rating. Tip: bring earplugs!
