I had such a lovely stay free for 2 nights in early June - the staff, the room and location were just perfect. The hotel is just a short walk from WOW, lots of bars shops and restaurants and is just a great location for exploring Porto.

This hotel was once an old police station and they did an amazing job of upgrading it while keeping the old charm. Room was spacious, staff pleasant and helpful, outdoor courtyard, and breakfast option on site. Easy walk to the river with lots of eating options. Located in the Gaia side so not as central but transit nearby.

Easily accessible from the port houses in Villa de Gaia, this beautiful small hotel provides a calm and quiet escape from the tourists. A lovely courtyard and self serve bar are a great addition. There is a restaurant on property but I didn’t use it. Staff are very welcoming and helpful; they will hold onto your luggage.

The Caleway Hotel is a beautiful gem that we will be recommending to anyone who is visiting Porto or Gaia in the future. The building is a former jail that has been beautifully renovated to include every desirable modern comfort while still presenting some of the original stonework and tiling. Our room was quiet, comfortable, and cleaned every day, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home. The included buffet breakfast was fresh and had options for every kind of eater. The location can also not be beat. Our room overlooked the Luis I Bridge and the rest of Porto. Only 3 minutes of walking from the front door got us to the main riverwalk of Gaia, with its innumerous restaurants and Port Caves; ten more minutes took us across the bridge and into downtown Porto. When we needed at rest from the sun and excitement, the garden and honesty bar at Caleway provided a relaxing and comfortable respite. We were sad to leave at the end of our 3 nights there.
