My schedule was so busy I didn’t get to spend enough time at this really charming hotel. I would absolutely stay here again, but plan to relax at the hotel, a bit more and enjoy the breakfast in the dining area. The proximity to the ocean is perfect and there are of variety of services and other restaurants nearby but the restaurant at the hotel is very nice. The rooms have beautiful wooden furniture and nice crisp linens. I had to leave very early for the airport one morning and the staff was kind enough to pack me a little lunch and I have coffee ready for me at 4 AM. Thank you so much for accommodating me.

The location was not ideal. The pool was very small and the food was not well made and low end ingredients.

The area had a place to shop and food outlets and was within easy walking distance of Porto's main centre. One huge advantage is that, being at a higher level, when you walk across the bridge (or catch the metro across) to the North side of the river, you are almost at the top of Porto, which saves a long climb.
There are also interesting sights and sites in Vila Nova de Gaia itself, such as the monastery and the views over the Douro to Porto. The monastery was shut when we went but may be open later. Mostly we went further afield so I cannot comment on much that was there. The Jardim de Morro is worth a visit, especially if you like live music performers and good views.

VNDG gives the most amazing views of Porto.
VNDG gives the most amazing views of Porto. A short walk across the bridge to the city. Its flat where I stayed but the city is very steep with lots of steps so wear sneakers. The tiled churches as stunning. Doing all the touristy things - I caught the cable car, the tram, the furnicular, shopped the markets, visited the churches, climbed the tower, booked for the Livraria Lella, had a glass of wine at the market, went to wine bars, Time Out market for dinner and Portuguese tarts with coffee.
I had a fabulous time and visited World of Wine as Porto is a Great Wine Capital.

Beautiful part of Porto, right over the river with plenty to do. Most of the Porto wine "caves" are on this side of the river but getting across is a quick uber ride. We did a Tuk Tuk tour as well and got to enjoy a Fado performance at night. New Years Eve dinner cruise was great but book ahead so you don't miss out! I would definitely visit again!

The area has plenty of interesting things to visit. Of course, the region is very well known for the vineyards and the respective Port wine cellars, which you can visit and even have a wine tasting. A walk by the river is also recommended.

Vila Nova de Gaia is the perfect place to stay when visiting Porto. The views of the Dom Luis 1 bridge and the city are exceptional. All the port houses are this side of the river and it is full of restaurants and bars.

Location is in Gaia so the bedroom looked across the river to Porto. The manager was on site when we arrived at 3pm. She was super nice and friendly and getting set was easy. The unit was a 1 bedroom with a living room area with a small kitchen. Not really suitable if you're not going to be dining out but fully functional. Nespresso maker and hot water pot, a nice large continental breakfast, this was one of the best rooms we booked on our 4 week vacation to Portugal and France. and lots of good places to dine out if you do your research.
We arrived at this hotel the day they opened. The room was spectacular! Huge with stunning view of Porto, we hardly left it for the remainder of our stay:) Spent lot of time on the terrace, drinking wine and absorbing the beauty of this magnificent city. Visited spa every day; with its swimming pool and sauna it was extremely cosy and relaxing. Breakfast was top notch, they even served kombucha. The staff was extremely nice and welcoming, thank you so much for the fantastic stay!!! Your hotel made our vacation unforgettable.
We have been to Porto 3 times. This really is the best place to stay, just 20 minutes away on foot from Ribeira. The place was impeccably clean. Not every 5-star hotel can compete. The host was very kind, attentive and helped us a lot. Breakfast was really nice. The room was large, the bed was comfy, huge balcony was a nice addition. We liked everything, hope to come back one day. Moreover, El Corte Ingles is just 5 mins away which makes it perfect for shopaholics :) Thank you to Sanjay for his hospitality.
Vila Nova de Gaia is a great location for visiting Port. Lots to do on the riverfront, restaurants and Port Lodges. Then, a short walk across the bridge into Porto. Our apartment was very clean and comfortable. We met Paula when we parked our car (included in the price, in a monitored lot, close by). They own the store/restaurant across the street from the apartment where breakfast is provided. Paula was extremely nice and gave us some good recommendations on the area. She was a pleasure to meet.
Very clean and quiet room. We loved that hotel has parking so we could leave our car and explore Porto by foot. It's so hard to find parking in Porto! We used Bolt and Uber to get to the historical center of Porto and back, it was fast and very affordable. We loved the idea that there are some restaurants very close to the hotel, so if you tired on the day of arrival you can go there. Loved smooth and fast checkout. Special thanks to Hermenesilda and Brenda. We definitely will stay there again.
This is one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed in. Everything about my stay was exceptional. The staff was accommodating and personal, The breakfast was outstanding - I would definitely recommend getting the breakfast included. The views, the art, the architecture- all top level. great service in the restaurant and the skybar, which had delicious cocktails (and mocktails) - with the best iconic views of Porto. I loved this place and will return!
Great location in Vila Nova de Gaia looking over at Porto, surrounded by port cellars, chocolate museum/factory, and near the cable car.
Very pleasant staff, great breakfast (and coffee!).
The apartment was clean, functional and generally comfortable. The hob, microwave, and fridge were invaluable when travelling with a toddler, and the pull out sofa bed was ideal for her.
What a hotel! A must stay when in Porto and we preferred staying on the Gaia side. Literally right next to port lodges and walkable to everything. It was like the Ritz Carlton with Marriot prices. We ate at the Yeatman restaurant which was the best meal of my life. Absolutely loved this place and will be returning.
The location was good for our visit to Porto, and the receptionist was outstanding in helping us to make the most of our visit. She really made the difference to our short stay.
The hotel is very modern and the breakfast was excellent, and the provision of power points for lap-tops/phones was good.
For my purpose - great location, right next to the highway, so easily reachable. Also, not far away from Porto city center and other city’s main attractions (10-15€ uber).
There is a shopping mall right next to the hotel, so great to buy gifts no need to waste time looking around through the city.
The location in Gaia is fantastic for a visit to Porto as well as the Gaia port wine side. A short walk gets you everywhere quickly yet the hotel itself is quiet and like a sanctuary. The room was wonderful and since we were on the fourth floor we had a view. The breakfast was excellent.
The location was superb, in the very heart of the Vila Nova de Gaia's seafront and surrounded by its wonderful historical buildings. Wonderful sights to OPorto provided from its rooftop terraces, great opportunity for networking.
incredible hotel in a great location. it is one of the nicest hotels we have had a chance to stay in and the breakfast and dinner are just fantastic. highly recommend for a few days in Porto.
Great location, really easy access to Vila Nova de Gaia and Porto. Literally located next to the Port wine caves. Property was very good and met our expectations for cleanliness and features
Great modern hotel in a quiet location on the Gaia side of the river. Very comfortable room and a quick 10 minute walk to the city rail line or by foot across the bridge into Porto.
I loved the location, the restaurants were close the city was a 20 minutes walk to Vila Nova de Gaia the second town to Porto city. All the little shops close to the apartment.
V clean hotel with some really classy features. Perfectly located in that you get to the Porto side by going across the top or bottom bridge. Breakfast Excellent.
