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.

The area had a place to shop and food outlets and was within easy walking distance of Porto's main centre. One huge advantage is that, being at a higher level, when you walk across the bridge (or catch the metro across) to the North side of the river, you are almost at the top of Porto, which saves a long climb.
There are also interesting sights and sites in Vila Nova de Gaia itself, such as the monastery and the views over the Douro to Porto. The monastery was shut when we went but may be open later. Mostly we went further afield so I cannot comment on much that was there. The Jardim de Morro is worth a visit, especially if you like live music performers and good views.

VNDG gives the most amazing views of Porto.
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.

the location in Gaia, on the west side of the Douro River, is on the rail line one block from the metro station that provides access into Porto. They provide parking (at an additional but fair price). If this is your first time to the Porto area it is a good place in terms of staying away from the fray of Porto. There is a shopping center across from the metro station (one block away and same side of street as hotel) so if you need to find something you can get it there. Staff was helpful and friendly.
We had an outstanding stay. The staff was highly service minded at check-in and check-out (Fransesca), amazing view of Porto from our hotel/room and a free upgrade was a very pleasant surprise. The breakfast at the terrace was an excellent start of the day. Yeatman's proximity to the WoW (World of Wine) museum was brilliant and the museum was very interesting in a modern educational setting. We will come back and stay at the Yeatman again.
The location was a taxi in to town but get a bolt it’s about 5-6 euro depending where you go in Porto. It’s a bit expensive for a budget hotel but Porto is an expensive area.
The rooms were small with a comfortable bed. If you have a lot of luggage it won’t fit in the room.
The hotel had a nice little garden to sit in nicely done and the restaurant was clean. We didn’t have breakfast for 9 euros each but it looked good.
The location is fantastic!
The hotel staff were extremely helpful and friendly!
My boyfriend had birthday and he got a birthday cake sent to our room!
The hotel for inside is very beautiful and decorated!
They have one bar on the 11th floor which have an amazing view and is also nice to watch the sunset!
I would definitely stay in this hotel again whenever I visit Porto!
This Hotel is PERFECTO
Very friendly staff in the reception and restaurant,
Breakfast is absolutely amazing,
Hotel environment and interior in delightful,
The Spa is up stunning,
Room is spacious and very comfortable beds.
I extended two more nights because I liked the hotel and Porto is a beautiful city.
Just everything I needed to enjoy this special trip.
Very good breakfast, staff excellent, we were lucky with weather and be able to have it on the terrace, great views of Douro and immaculate gardens.
Restaurant food and service were excellent.
To visit a city like Porto but be able to stay in a location such as this was a great bonus, also to be able to take the hotels water taxi into Porto was amazing.
Location location location is the best. Close to metro, bus or train. Short walk to main attractions such Porto caves, restaurants, bars and the bridge to the city centre.
You can find the kettle and cups in the shared area which I liked as not many hotels in Portugal have them.
Highly recommended for short stay. 😊
Helena is the best host ever!!! She and her husband Louis are carefull about every details to make you feel like home: breakfast has a lot of choices, the room spacious and bed very confortable, location is quite strategical: few steps away from Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia river side. Everything was perfect!!!!
Bedrooms are lovely , very quiet, great linen , comfortable beds, Lovely design throughout hotel . Fabulous breakfast - great views and design of restaurant. Staff are lovely everywhere in hotel . The hotel and bedrooms also smell lovely . Would highly recommended and will stay again if we come back to Porto.
Porto perfection! The location cannot be beat! (Extremely clean, well equipped, inexpensive super secure parking practically connected to the building) The view was absolutely incredible. We ate dinners early to make sure we could be back to enjoy the sunset view from our apt looking over porto. Gorgeous!!!!
Our stay was great. The apartment is as advised on Booking, very clean, spacious, comfortable, sheltered from outside noise, and contains everything one should need for a short stay in Portugal. The location is very close to all the important places in Vila Nova de Gaia and we had no problem finding it as.
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.
The location is excellent! Fabulous views of Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto, and the Douro River. Right by Jardim do Morro. Most places you'd care to visit are walkable and if you don't want to walk, it's 5 minutes to excellent public transportation. The apartment was clean and well furnished.
We loved every single moment we spent a the hotel, one of the best places to stay in whole of Portugal. The service is unmatchable, staff is friendly and professional, interiors are luxurious and welcoming. Perfect stay and we definitely will be coming back many times
Amazing location on waterfront, with beautiful view of Porto opposite and the bridge slightly to the right. Vila Nova de Gaia has its own character and buzzing atmosphere. Loved opening the window and soaking it up!
My favorite hotel in Porto. Or just south of Porto. It is not my first nor last time staying here. I absolutely love the amenities and the staff are so attentive. Breakfast is delicious and the rooms are large.
