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.

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.

Being across the river from the old town means gorgeous views and a wonderful relaxed vibe. So many great places to eat and drink all within a short walk. And the old town is easily accessible by foot, tram, even cable car. You are surrounded by the port warehouses, and other renovated industrial buildings. The whole area has had a recent facelift and the city as a whole is very safe and friendly. Everywhere you go the staff and shopkeepers go out of their way to make sure you have an amazing stay. Except the lady in the tourist information. She must have been having a bad day!

A small hotel located perfectly for visiting all the Port-wine cellars in Villa Nova de Gaja and also for Porto old town. The central station in Porto is just a 25 minute walk away.
At the hotel we had a very warm welcome, the staff is great and the breakfast very nice and cosy. The rooms provide more than enough space to stay a week and everything is nice and clean. The hotel is located a couple hundred meters away form the busy main road so it is nicely silent most of the time especially over night.
HIGHLY recommend!!!
This hotel had everything. A bar, garden terrace and beautiful lounge accessible at all times. Our room was spacious with a palatial bathroom. The building facade hid what was a stunning architectural oasis within. A blend of old and new, very tastefully and respectfully done. The breakfast every morning was wonderful. But above all, the staff would do anything they could to assist, answer questions and advise about the wonderful city of Oporto. It will be the yardstick for all other places we stay. Amazing.
Everything, best location in Porto, the staff were amazing from the young man who walked to the garage door to help us park our car, then carried our bags, the young girl who gave us tips on the best boat trip and the excellent friendly service at checkin/out and wonderful people at the incredible sky bar. Then there is the food and the view all first class! One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in and definitely the best location in Porto with parking, worth every cent !!
We choose this Hotel because it's close to the City Centre of Porto, with a compartively bigger room and also has parking slot, which is important to us.
The room is comfortable although it's not a very cheap room.
It's close to a shopping mall, but we don't have time to take a look in final.
It's good to have an indoor parking slot, we don't mind to paid extra for this service.
Breakfast was brilliant - the breakfast experience at Novotel Porto Gaia exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff's professionalism, friendliness, and willingness to assist made me feel truly valued as a guest. The wide selection of fresh produce ensured a delightful culinary experience, and the flexible opening hours catered to my needs.
When I arrived late back in Porto the weather was too bad to continue my journey, so I tried to book at several hotels around the airport and even in towards town but there were no availabilities. Apparently, this is an almost constant issue. The Holiday Inn Porto Gaia was the only available hotel and the service was excellent.
The apartment is extremely well located in Vila Nova de Gaia, a short walk to Porto. Our unit had a fantastic view of Porto from an outdoor terrace. There was also a well-equipped shared kitchen and living room (on our stay, we were the only ones there). Also, the associated parking was a major plus. Definitely recommend!
Very cute and clean apartment in a quiet and easy location to explore Vila Nova de Gaia and Porto! AC in every room ensured for maximum comfort. Easy check in/check out process. Tons of things to eat and do moments outside our door. Paolo was responsive and helpful before and during our stay.
Location is excellent for exploring Porto, Vila Nova de Gaia and a great point of departure for a Tour of the Douro Valley. Restaurant hostess and service staff were excellent. Reception staff were extremely helpful and welcoming, and helped to reserve our private tour of the Douro Valley.
Everything about it is perfect. The rooms are nice, spacious with stone walls. Staff is super helpful, nothing is a problem. Location wise you would stay in the middle of Porto wine producers - good for wine tasting. Breakfast is also beautiful. We can only recommend this place.
The service and all the facilities are very comfortable.
All the attention to details is remarkable.
The food and drinks in the hotel are definitely one of the best you can have in Portugal
The location of the hotel and view over Porto is amazing.
Hotels in Porto are absolutely overpriced, so this is a good solution to avoid yielding to their greediness. Here is a modern hotel, quiet, well kept, with nice rooms. We had a view on the sea and also enjoyed an excellent breakfast and free parking,
The bedroom was very comfortable with a good side view of the Porto city. Very close to the buzzing area of Vila Nova de Gaia. The building is narrow but it goes up, make sure to go to the rooftop garden as it has a great view.
Loved everything about the Hotel, Staff and location. Honestly couldn't fault a thing, they even organised for a trip to the Douro Valley for wine tasting which was brilliant! Would definitely stay again if stopping in Porto.
To be honest, we liked everything about The Lodge Hotel - great location, friendly and really helpful staff, fantastic room with great views over the river and old Porto, wonderful breakfast - I could go on
The location and hotel was great, very fortunate to stumble across this hotel during our short stay at porto! Definately will come back if we have the opportunity!!
Great hotel after waking Caminho de Santiago. Very helpful staff. Wonderful restaurant with view of Porto. Fitness center outstanding. Close to Douro River Cruises.
