When is the best time to go to Gulpilhares?

The best time to visit Gulpilhares is typically during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October) when the weather is pleasant and the crowds are smaller. During these months, you'll find comfortable temperatures, ideal for enjoying the local beaches and outdoor activities without the intense heat or larger crowds of summer. This allows for a more relaxed experience, whether you're exploring the coastline or taking day trips into Porto. For those primarily looking for beach holidays and sea swimming, the summer months of July and August offer the warmest weather and sea temperatures. However, this is also peak tourist season, so you can expect more people and higher prices for accommodation and flights. If you're keen on surfing, the waves are generally more consistent and larger during the autumn and winter months, though the water will be cooler.

GRANDE HOTEL PARIS by STAY HOTELS

8/10 Good

"They need to work on their breakfast selection. Slow in replenishing. No hot water on one occasion. Be a little more flex able on check-in time."

Hotel Moon & Sun Porto

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was so nice and helpful. Saved us from missing our train to the Duoro valley, getting us a taxi quickly after the Bolt request canceled twice. Great breakfast, with lots of options. Best orange juice :) Was nice to have snack options during the day. Welcome drink upon arrival and cookies upon departure. And location was perfect, walking distance to a lot of the main sights. Made us feel right at home."

Crowne Plaza Porto by IHG

8/10 Good

"This was a last minute stay for us as our plans changed due to a forest fire in the Douro valley. The hotel room was very clean but unfortunately the shower didn’t work when we arrived, the fault was quickly fixed when we reported it to reception although I had to go downstairs for this as the room phone didn’t work. Breakfast was ok, it was unlabelled which made it much more difficult for me to find items to suit my dairy intolerance and I wasn’t confident in the quality of staff advice when I asked for help. I found enough food but it meant my choices were very limited. Clear allergy labelling and/ or an allergy folder or information sheet on allergens in standard items for customers would really help with this. Staff were very helpful in taking care of our bags and we enjoyed exploring the local area, especially the botanical gardens. We also went to the Casa da Musica for a performance by the Symphonic Orchestra and this was totally amazing, I highly recommend. All in all, this hotel was good value but could be better with slightly more attention to details and allergy information."
