Uma boa opção em Gaia
Pros:

A arquitetura interna é muito bonita; o atendimento é excelente, bem como a localização. A vista do quarto, de Gaia para Porto era belíssima e de lá acompanhamos a queima de fogos do reveillon. Sempre nos hospedamos em Porto mas dessa vez achamos muito bom ficar em Gaia pois tranquilamente se vai a pé até o outro lado do rio. Bem perto do hotel está o WOW (World of Wine) com vários museus bem estruturados, lojas temáticas, excelentes restaurantes, onde ficamos todo o feriado do dia 01 de janeiro, quando quase nada fica aberto.

Cons:

A iluminação do espelho do banheiro é bem precária. Mesmo tendo espelho com amplificação, ainda é insuficiente para maquiagem sem esforço em pessoa com mais idade. Também não consegui localizar tomada para o secador de cabelo nesse local, apenas no quarto. O café da manhã é muito bom, mas deveria ser mais variado pois fica repetitivo para quem se hospeda por mais dias. Não conseguimos usar a academia porque choveu todos os dias e o acesso à mesma envolve um pequeno trajeto exposto. Eu voltaria a esse hotel, com um pedido para iluminarem melhor o espelho!

Perfect place to stay when visiting Porto!

Comfortable beds and beautiful views. They really made the stay feel very special, with snacks and drinks in our room when we arrived. The lobby is stunning and the staff is friendly. The breakfast is excellent.
