We were allowed to checkin early and that always is a good thing after a ryannair flight ! The room assigned to us was huge with a single bed and another huge king bed. The pillows were really comfortable. As mentioned by almost everyone, the location is bang in the centre, very close to all attractions and 2 malls. The... More

We took a family trip and chose Sao Jose Hotel because it´s practically downtown. The staff is very friendly, Breakfast ins included and is adequate (European style). Parking under the hotel is a nightmare if your car seats more than 2 people. Most attractions of this beautiful city are within walking distance. The rooms are OK, they are good size.... More

Easy to walk everywhere as 2 mins off Santa Caterina, the main street. Efficient & friendly reception staff, cosy if slightly dated room, very comfy & quiet room at back. Slept like a log - or would have... More

The rooms are quite large and clean. Free wifi. The metro line to the airport is 1min away. The hotel is almost on top of the main commercial street with shops and typical cafe's. Fastfood in via Catarina shopping. Walking from the hotel to the river (Ribeira) is a really nice walk and you get to stop and look at... More

Closeness to the centre (though a bit father than i expected), good breakfast, perfect free wifi connection in the room, well disposed and helpful lady at... More
