Nice and central hotel. Breakfast, room and reception were at the expected standard for this category of hotel

Is a really clean and nice hotel with very friendly staff, is located virtually near the Porto centre, we walked all around on foot in two days.
The only bad things which should be revised by the hotel, is the mattresses feel like have no padding one can feel the springs, also should revise making front rooms windows sound proof as this hotel is near a night club and noises carry on through the night disturbing someone with a light sleep.
Lots of restaurants and bars nearby and lots of lovely food, as well as lots of history to see.

The Porto Coliseum Hotel is right at the Porto Coliseum venue. It's impossible to miss. It's a popular area and incredible central.
So, if you are looking for a good location this hotel is really a good option. Staying here you'll find yourself at a short walking distance to Santa Catarina, Clérigos (where the world famous Lello book store is located), Av. Aliados and many must-see squares with its restaurants and museums. If a 12-15 minute walk it's not a problem for you, you'll find the Ribeira, close to the river, and the São Bento train station.
Starting with logistics, if you're coming with your car, there is park right in front of the Hotel, usually with a lot of parking space and a 9€ rate per day if you're an hotel guest. Mind however if you are coming on a Friday or Saturday night, you may expect some traffic and less space, specially if a show is happening at the Coliseum. Anyway, there are plenty of parking lots around this area. Getting a taxi or Uber is easy, but because everything is just a short distance, walking in Porto can be such a good experience that I suggest you to leave the car for the whole stay.
Now, what you can find when arriving at the hotel? The Porto Coliseum is a completely refurbished small hotel . So expect a nice and clean space, with a minimalist design themed by cinema and theatre shows held in the past at the Coliseum. I have to say that the staff is quite friendly. They do their best to help you and support any need.
When choosing a room I suggest going for the suite, because the windows are for the backyard, and it means less noise. That was my choice and I didn't have problems. I've heard however a guest staying on a standard room complaining a little about the noise at the street (usually until midnight). Although they did some good soundproofing, it's never enough when you try to sleep. And independently what kind of room you are staying there is a challenge - the night club right next door. There's no sound proofing enough for the drum and bass vibrations, and although it wasn't a problem for me, more sensitive guests should bring sleeping hear plugs. Anyway, you are in Porto, so what are you doing in your bedroom at 11:00PM? You should be enjoying the local nightlife!
My room was spacious, very clean, good LED tv and fast internet. The bed was a little hard for the back, but it's something more to do with a personal taste rather than a quality issue.
The breakfast is served on an amazing rooftop. It's a basic breakfast, but fresh and tasty - expect different kinds of bread, croissants, some fresh fruit, coffee, orange juice, boiled eggs, cheese, cakes but nothing more than this. For those on a budget, there is a Pingo Doce supermarket in the same street, where you can buy everything.
I did a 5* rating, although the best would be a 4.5*, and here's why:
Cost: 4*
- good value for money, but you should check for cheaper similar alternatives, specially on AirBnB and serviced apartments
Rooms: 4*
- great rooms but the sound proofing can be a small issue
Location: 5*
- location, location, location
Cleanliness: 5*
- My personal experience was very positive everywhere in the hotel
Staff: 5*
- very kind and helpful
