Nice location, bit of walk to centre . Good breakfast . Friendly staff.
Travelled on 10/2025
A nice hotel in walking distance to city centre (up hill of course ! ) there are trams and a bus that stop near by. Breakfast very good. Good restaurants near by but book ahead. Rooms need better sound proofing. You could hear other guests at times. Friendly staff...

Great service in a lovely hotel
Travelled on 10/2025

They were a credit to the hotel, as w...

Beautiful hotel in a perfect location.
Travelled on 09/2025
Beautiful hotel in a fantastic location, only a 10 minute walk right into the heart of the Ribeira area. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was immaculate and we chose a river view room with a balcony which was idyllic. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We loved our visit to this fantastic city and hope to return. Highly recommended. Thank you....

Interesting in Porto
Travelled on 09/2025
This unit of the Vila Gale chain is located directly on the Douro River in the old part of Porto. Other than the fact that it is at the bottom of the hill, the location is very convenient to many of the old city attractions.
We stayed there for one night at the end of a tour, and had booked a reservation at the Liveria Lallo for mid-afternoon. Unfortunately, our room was not ready when we arrived, so we had a ligh...
