Top Hotels Near Douro River Lighthouse in Porto from AU$94

"Didn’t eat at the hotel. There are so many eateries in that area. "

"Very modern room. 2 bathrooms was a big plus with kids "

"Excellent location, amazing breakfast, friendly staff. Highly recommended."

"Very disappointing stay — we ended up checking out three days earlier than originally planned. The facilities are clearly outdated. The shower is built into a bathtub with only a curtain, which feels inconvenient and not in line with what you would expect at this price point. The air conditioning also performed poorly — even in April, the room was warmer than the outside temperature. For guests traveling with dogs, there is an additional €10 per night fee, and pets cannot be left alone in the room for more than one hour. This restriction is quite limiting and not clearly justified. The biggest drawback, however, is the location. The hotel is in Vila Nova de Gaia, which requires at least 20–25 minutes of driving to reach the main attractions in Porto, often with heavy traffic. While public transport is available, we eventually moved to a centrally located hotel where everything was within walking distance — a significantly better experience. Additionally, we found that the water boiler in the room was leaking. This was reported to the hotel, but no action was taken to repair or replace it during our stay. Ultimately, we chose to forfeit three nights of our booking rather than continue staying under these conditions, which reflects how unsatisfactory the experience was."

"Everything was great except the WiFi. Terrible connection and terrible speed when it would actually connect. "

"Great place great food"

"Good location, lovely character building (but with this noise insulation is limited, fine with ear plugs). Very clean. Budget room was cosy but someone had thought about good storage in the room, which had a fridge and coffee maker (I don’t drink coffee, so didn’t use). There was a small shelf in the bathroom and hook, decor was nice, could even see the sea from the window. Room was better than some more expensive places I stayed during this trip. "
