Utopian Luxury Boutique Residence is really nice. Spacious rooms and bathrooms, very modern yet classy. This hotel is a renovated old General’s quarters. Many rooms several levels. Be aware lots of stairs, challenging for those with big suitcases and mobility challenged. Back then, the more rooms in a house the richer you looked. Area is perfect, across from the Palacio do Cristal, which is also on the hop-on-off bus Redline. You can walk to several sites and the Douro River. Some good eateries around the corner, a classic burger place and a nice restaurant called Xao Laura, serves roast beef sandwiches and steaks. The staff and attention to the customer is above and beyond. I highly recommend this hotel. Try to get a low floor though.
