"budget prices for 4 star stay"
We were delighted when we stayed at this hotel which was close to the metro (two stops from the train station) allowing us to take trips around the area - we recommend visiting Braga. Hotel 15 mins easy walk from the centre.The Staff were friendly and efficient and all English speaking. The buffet breakfast included in the price was the best breakfast I have ever had with a healthy option with so much fresh fruit.The evening buffet at 12 euro's again was good value although as each day there was a speciality of the day this also appeared as a stewed version in the hot buffet.The rooms are large and very clean,and as we were on the 11th Floor (no smoking)gave us a good view of the city.Took the cheap local bus form the airport to the centre, and the hotel booked us on the airport bus back-unfortunetly this didn't arrive but there is a taxi rank outside the hotel.

"Great city, great hotel"
We had a 2 night break in Porto and stayed at Vila Gale and were really happy with the hotel. As we were driving, it was important to have secure parking - which the Vila Gale had (underground car park), also the Vila Gale web site had good directions to the hotel. The hotel is an about 20-30 mins walk from the river front of Porto (but this walk is all down hill). The reception staff are very friendly and will give you a map and recommend places you should see / visit. We would get a taxi back to the hotel - which were reasonable price (about 4 euros). The rooms were great - clean, good size and modern. We had breakfast included, which was a good buffet breakfast with lots of selection (including cooked breakfast). We had a great stay in Porto and loved the hotel. Would definately stay there again, especially if driving.

"loved the port"
This hotel is great value for money. Immaculate reception - couldn't fault the rooms/ restaurant/ or Blues and Soul bar.The spa and pool overlooks the city -great views and at 7e extra well worth a visit. The hotel is a bit out of town but taxis are so cheap. The restaurant opposite the hotel is great value we had a 3 course meal for four people including 2 bottles of Mateus Rose for 47e! We also found a little cafe opposite the Port houses it was above the main row of restaurants by the river. We had lunch there twice -soup and sandwich for 3 e and on another day Whiting, chips and salad plus chocolate cake and coffee for 7e. A great city to visit over 3/4 days

"Loved the breakfasts!"
Superb choice. Facilities very good. Did not have time to use the pool or spa but it was nice that they were available. Very nice restaurant opposite called Triunfente - or something very close- where the meals were excellent, large and cheap. We also found the Metro was about 100 yards away as was the taxi rank. Between the the taxi rank and the Metro was a little cafe/bar, named Pinguim, where English is spoken and whose owner was extremely helpful - far above the call of duty. His lager and coffee were excellent and again very cheap and he was very accomodating for the vegetarian in our party. Porto is very charming as are the people and we would all like to return. Would recomend you visit. Be prepared for climbing the hills!

"Perfect Location"
We stayed in this hotel from 25 - 28 Nov 05. We had a double room on the 12th floor (they have two floors with non-smoking rooms) The accomodation was very good, the room was very large and always clean. The breakfast is served as a buffet (perfect). The price is very low with breakfast included. All rooms have air conditioning, satellite TV, Minibar, direct dial telephone, fax/modem connection, hair dryer, and 24 hrs room service. The hotel is located about 8 miles away from the airport, cost for Taxi is approx. 19.00 Euro. To see the city center, its a nice walk for about 10-15 min. To see the river Douro and the historical part of Porto (Ribeira), you may walk for another 10-15 min. Restaurant: if you walk thru the drive way, on the other site of the street is a typical Portugese Restaurant, we spend 41.00 Euro for 4 people including cheese, soupe, main meal, dessert, wine, mineral water, and coffe.
