Reis de Gaia

Le lieu est propre et spacieux, le design très sympa et le personnel est vraiment affable, rien à redire ! Pour la localisation, dans notre cas nous voulions être à Vila Nova de Gaia. La terrasse roof top a une vue magnifique. Une seule chose: le wifi est assez instable et parfois il n’y en a plus du tout. C’est le seul « point noir ». Sinon super séjour, je recommande !

We are two couples, staying in two rooms. All of us were impressed with the hotel & it's location. We would all stay here again Reis de Gaia is an apartment style hotel with a kitchenette within the rooms. The hotel has been beautifully refurbished in recent years. The decor is modern, but the character of the original building has been retained. Lovely touches include exposed stone walls and (remade) original hardwood bannisters & staircase. Our friends stayed on the top floor with a balcony and superb views across to Porto from their bed! (well worth the extra cost of the room). The rooftop terrace with plungepool is not yet officially open, but we were allowed to use it. The views are fantastic & it is a jewel that delights. Likewise there is a bar/ restaurant & spa that are not yet open. The staff are very friendly & welcoming. The hotel location is excellent, being just a short level (slight hill) walk from the river front in Vila Nova de Gaia. The Vila Nova side of the river provides great views of Porto, is the heart of the Port/Wine district with related tours, attractions restaurants & bars. The area is more relaxed than the Porto side. You can get to Porto by walking over the bridge, which has both high & low level options. Walking to the high level bridge is challenging, but you can take the cable car if you don't want to walk. The ferry will also take you across the river for €3 (2022). In summary, a lovely hotel, caringly refurbished with friendly staff & in a great location

Don’t let outward appearances deceive you - behind the hotel door on a hilly side street is a clean and friendly place to stay in a central location. Ana at the front desk went out of her way to ensure a nice stay. Her recommendations and directions were great and she answered our many questions about the area. Take the time to stop at the many cafes and stores along the street down to to river. The view from our windows was beautiful and our two bedroom room was large and clean and comfortable. We hope to return.

Stayed 2 nights with husband and 2 children (ages 7 and 10). This was an excellent location and very comfortable accommodations. One tip: don't bother with a car in Porto! We rented one when we arrived (Hertz Porto airport was amazing), but it stayed parked for the 2.5 days - parking and driving in Porto is too crazy! Walking is the only way to truly experience the city.

As trvelers all over the world we never experienced such a horrible place, when we checked in we asked to preview the room,it was shoking moment, the bed was so small,smell in the room was unbearable, shower was disgusting, please stay away !!!!!!

First of all I want to mention Sandra from the staff/reception for her exceptional assistance and professional/friendly approach. The hotel is located 5 min (walk) far from the river Douro in the old city centre which is very quite and nice. The aparthotel inside is again very quiet, the rooms are very well isolated. One can feel the privacy in full. The rooms are very big (I also had a chance to stay at the Family room which was even bigger), well equipped with everything you will need to feel home, minimalistic design, clean and with beautiful views from both sides of the building. The beds were also very comfortable. I stayed there for 5 nights in total and I will highly recommend this property for single, couple and family travellers. Thank you to Sandra and the owner of the hotel. I will choose this place again if I decide to visit Porto/Vila Nova de Gaia again.

Pequeno refúgio na Ribeira de Gaia. Ideal para uns dias descontraídos e românticos. Perfeito para quem gosta de passear a pé, com acesso rápido a supermercados, cafés e restaurantes. Bom isolamento acústico, e boa organização do espaço. Bom aconselhamento de locais a visitar por parte da D. Sandra. Aconselhamos!!
