Featured amenities include complimentary wired Internet access, dry cleaning/laundry services, and multilingual staff. For a surcharge, guests may use a roundtrip airport shuttle (available 24 hours) and a train station pick-up service.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: It was absolutely fantastic. From check in to check out there was nothing I could’ve had better. Pedro from Brazil checked us in and he recommended great spots around the city and places to avoid (eg too crowded or too touristy). The hostel was super clean, not a single breadcrumb could’ve been found. The room looked brand new like in the photos, the bathroom was clean, towels, soap, everything provided, even slippers! The breakfast felt like home, all guests sitting at the same table having conversations and the manager joined us and chatted about Portugal in comparison to other countries. It was fantastic.
Cons: There was NOTHING we didn’t like!
10.0 Excellent
Pros: I loved my staying at Hostel Gaia! Joao was extremely nice and helpful, and Pedro too! the atmosphere was always very pleasant, Joao welcomed us with a smile even though it was late at night, he always gave us the help and all the info we needed, breakfast was always excellent...what else!? :) The place is very near to all the wine bars on the river side in Gaia, same for the bridge, you only need to walk up for about 5 minutes. Porto side is about 20-30 minutes walk, depending how far you want to go. All in all, amazing experience! Thank you sooo much and see you again soon!

9.6 Excellent
Pros: Warm welcome. Fantastic host giving very useful information about places worth seeing, restaurants worth visiting. Great breakfast. Room very cosy, clean, with great atmosphre. You can sit on outside, upsatirs garden.
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Hostel Gaia Porto can be a Hostel but it easily compared to a good hotel. The facilities are great and the staff is fantastic! It is located 5 minutes away from the best view at the Douro river. We received cake and Port wine when checking in! The breakfast is eaten on a single table, which creates coziness among the residents.
Cons: We stayed at Hostel Gaia Porto during hot days in June, so our room was a bit warm. This situation was easily resolved with a fan. The road outside of the Hostel is build with stones, like the old days, so the cars make some noise when passing by.
5.4 Okay
Pros: The typical hostel, pretty much ok. Plus it has several garden terraces giving a very nice panoramic view! The hostel is pretty clean and has very pleasant staff.
Cons: But the dorm room was too noisy to allow sleeping, considering there's no air conditioning so it was too hot, there's a balcony door so constantly hearing any noise from the street. The room door was constantly open, so getting light and noises from the stairs. The shared restrooms are extremely squeezed so they cannot realistically accommodate more than one person at the time.

Pros: Very clean + very kind people!

Pros: Great location, was just perfect for Sandra's training in Porto while within 50m of Metro for me to go visit Porto. The owner kindly upgraded us to a room with private bathroom after realizing we made a booking of a room with shared bathroom (I did not realized it was the case when I made the booking). Pierre
Cons: Could have had more electric plugs availability in the room.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: The entire process (from check-in to check-out) was amazing. The staff is friendly and ready to help at any time. The GuestHouse is close to the metro station so it is easy to get to the City Center.
3.3 Mediocre
Pros: I think this hostel is high rated because the house is beautiful and clean, but nothing else. The price does not worth it. A guest house for the price of a hotel?
Cons: 1. The services describes 24 h deskfront. It is false. We had to wait more than 1 hour in front of the hostel. After a call to the property, the person in charge said she would come in 15 mn. She took 40. She didn't even apologized in person. 2. The property describes a parking service. Once in the place, the women argued "it was not possible to provide a car for all the clients", announcing a car parking outside. (city payment). THERE IS NO PARKING SERVICE. Only for the owner. 3. The room description before the booking payment said "room has views". FALSE. NO VIEW, other than the wall of the building 3 m in front. The women argued we have access to a common terrace of the building! (Not accessible from the room). 4. So,The information provided in the booking moment is not real or true. The service is bad. The women was not helpful, not accepting our comments, (she even suggested to cancel the booking and to go out!!!). We are paying the price of a higher standart room for a place where there is no service, you can not enter the hotel- hostel, and the services are not the same. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SEE a kind of service like this and FALSE INFORMATION for the client.

Pros: This Guesthouse is very beautiful and the guest very welcoming and accommodating. The rooms and private bathroom are a nice size with a private balcony. The host allows guests to use the kitchen and to store food in the fridge and freezer. Best to leave your car in their very nice parking and take the Metro in to Porto: it is only 100 M away and take ~15 minutes to the Center of town (excellent value at 1.4euro/trip)
Cons: There is a dog a few door down that like to bark continuously! It would be nice if the owners of the Guesthouse would speak to him/her to tell them it is disturbing to guests at night.
4.6 Okay
Cons: When I arrived nobody was there. Had to wait some time. Next day there was no water. Nobody there. Also no cleaning. No apologies. Never again! The rooms as modern as they are are cold and not comfortable.

Cons: There was nothing that I didn’t like. I always stay here and will be returning
9.2 Excellent
Pros: I was in this hotel in a busy night and the bar/restaurant was full of people but the staff leader Manuel Dias was the star of the night. Calmly, sympathetically and professionally handled everything and everyone as if you were in a five star hotel.
7.9 Good
Pros: The hotel was very clean. Staff was very friendly.
Cons: The breakfast as there was no variety which is the spice of life. The location as the hotel is quite far from the city centre though it is well served by public transport.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: Awesome staff, always Keen to help. Delicious breakfast that you can enjoy inside the hotel or in a little garden they have. Besides difficult access for public transportation, the place is only 30 minutes by walk to the city center, this walk next to the Douro is magical, both day and night the environment is just awesome.
Cons: Location is quite difficult if you want to use public transportation. However, you can go by walk along the Douro river to the city center meanwhile you're enjoying the magnificent view.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: Dog friendly, close to highway but still not far away from old city center. Clean rooms, not big but not small; just enough. Nice and variety breakfast.
Cons: Quite big amount of money for a dog per day...15€.....could be less.....but still happy for accepting dogs
7.5 Good
Pros: The room was nice and cleaned thoroughly every day.
Cons: Breakfast selection wasn’t great. There needs to be more variety and hot food for breakfast. The tv language options and not being able to contact to services such as smart tv or connect an iPad. The room was quite small especially for a twin room and the view from the room wasn’t great, overlooks the car park. The hotel doesn’t have universal sockets for plugs which would be really useful and also having more than 1 on either side of the beds would have helped a great deal.
7.1 Good
Pros: Was a clean room.
Cons: There was no view. The food was very processed. Not fresh ingredients. Bed a little small.
9.2 Excellent
Pros: The staff was very accommodating. The facility is clean and bright. Breakfast had many choices! The beds were very comfortable!
Cons: The room was a little smaller than I thought from the pictures, but it was adequate for a one-night stay.

6.3 Good
Pros: Good breakfast, nice staff. Easy check in and out. Excellent shower.
Cons: Slightly hard beds. Small lifts if you are claustrophobic, and can get noisy in individual corridors due to building design.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Rooms very neat with balconies and air conditioned. Very good service. Friendly and helpful owner keen on feedback. Breakfast here was a perfect start of our day. Clip Hotel is located 100 m from Metro station which will take You to the heart of the town within less than 15 minutes. No problems with parking around the hotel (public parking). Hotel offered parking places of its own which i had no chance to use. To sum it up - highly recommendable for all those with demands and at a reasonable price.
Cons: everything was fine

8.3 Excellent
Pros: Everything was ok. Hotel is close to the Metro station. Breakfast was ok. Nearby there are several restaurants and a Shopping Mall. We had dinner at CARPA restaurant which is a Portuguese restaurant and the food was very good and tasty. The service was also ok.
Cons: The price is a little bit high for this type hotel and location. It was not very easy to find a parking space on the nearby streets. Nothing to complain.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: This is a gem for travelers to Porto - I write this after my second stay there. The location is great - you walk down the hill towards Porto and you are at the eiffel-bridge with the tram going over. El Corte Ingles is very close. The hotel itself is great - not fancy, but very clean, very comfortable, really helpful and genuine staff. I would recommend paying for the breakfast when you book the room, it is very good value, and better than I had at 'smart' hotels in Porto. Also one tip, if you are traveling by train get off at Gaia-Devasas which is closer and a small station and take a taxi, avoiding the mayhem at the main Porto stations. Also, the open top tour buses have a stop really close by, if that is interesting to you (its how we spotted the hotel in the first place).
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Good Breakfast; easily acessed by public transport; very clean; nice staff
7.5 Good
Pros: Just outside the city with very easy access to the metro line that goes straight into downtown Porto. Great location and facilities would stay here again!

Pros: The location is really good and my room had a beautiful view over Porto. The staff are friendly and helpful. My stay was incredible value for money - the 4-bed dorm had a clean bathroom (good water pressure), a kitchen with spare cutlery and a fridge, a large social area and the beds. It’s the best hostel I have been to!
Cons: There is some construction work nearby and work starts at 8 am (workdays only). Can’t really do much about it, but I spent some of the money I saved staying at this property to buy earplugs and that worked out well.

7.9 Good
Pros: Good variety for breakfast, especially like the fruit platter. Nice to have an outdoor pool so we had the options to chill by the pool side or by the beach.
Cons: Unfortunately it is a little bit out of town, although taxi to the wine cellars in Gaia only cost €3-5, and city centre €5-10 but you'll need taxi as public transport will not take you there directly. Hotel is well maintained but it is old and therefore carpet and furniture look a bit dated. I stayed on the 4th floor which looks like it had been partially rejuvenated (newer bathroom but still old thinned carpet) compared to my cousin's room on 2nd floor!
9.6 Excellent
Pros: Really nice and clean. The pool was good size and clean. Service was excellent. Always get a smile and they are genuinely ready to help you with everything. Amazing holiday. The kids loved it.

9.6 Excellent
Pros: Great staff awesome location You got it all here down to the breakfast a must stay!
10.0 Excellent
Pros: The whole place is great, probably one of the best stays we had. The suite was amazing (I asked for a specific one and they were happy to provide it). Aside from breathtaking view of Porto, the room itself had really cool design, we even had a turntable with some vintage records in the room. The breakfast was excellent too.
Cons: We've got a recommendation from a girl at the reception for a restaurant in the city - the place was great (Thank you!). In the evening we decided to go out for dinner at George restaurant which is in the same Sandeman building, using the discount voucher provided by the hotel. I wish we went to the first place again, food at George was quite disappointing. Nothing to do with the hotel though!
10.0 Excellent
Pros: facilities were incredibly good
Cons: I expected view but my room did not have one. just the view from the lounge is nice
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Most beautiful hostel I’ve ever been to. Staff was super helpful with my extra lugage and offered to store a part of it at the reception. Breakfast with an amazing view at the city. Shared female dorm room was really clean and quiet, comfy and cute beds! I was sad I only stayed 1 night! Would recommend to everyone!
Cons: Bedside lamps were really powerful so it would lit up a big part of the room, I think these could be more subtle so it doesnt wake up others
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Fabulous staff, excellent location and very good rooms and public spaces. A special thank you for the birthday gift!
Cons: Relatively expensive.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: The stuff was super friendly! Loved the room as well and the location is awesome. Will come back for sure.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Really friendly, helpful staff. Stylish hostel and private rooms. Lovely bedroom/bathroom with amazing views (be sure to ask for a room with balcony). Comfortable bed. Stair lift for those with mobility problems. Breakfast was terrific, and if staying in a private room (rather than hostel bed) the presentation was beautiful. Location was superb - I would definitely stay here again. Really nice mix of fellow guests, too.
Cons: Nothing!
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Amazing hostel with beautiful facilities situated at an amazing location with the best view of Porto. Super big and comfortable beds. Very clean facilities. Great staff always present to help. Good breakfast. I recommend booking a wine tour in their cellar and a boat tour to see the 6 bridges!
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Design, location and the team are things which make it perfect. Young people serving at a hostel are v friendly, open and helpful. The rooms are huge and you do not hear the neighbors at night. For 14 beds room there are 4 full size bathrooms which are v clean. The location is fantastic. 10 minutes walk to the center and at the same time you are a bit aside to overlook the city. The terrace bar and restaurant George meet all expectations. Breakfast is well enough and you may order additional dishes for small charge.
Cons: Wish to be cheaper )

10.0 Excellent
Pros: By far the best service offered by any of the 5 star hotels we have stayed in. All front house staff were fully uniformed, well spoken and incredibly professional. On arrival our little girl was given a welcome teddy bear which was a nice touch. A tour was given of the hotel, with the receptionist being very knowledgeable. A concierge was also on hand who organised a superb tour of Porto in a replica Ford Model T. The restaurant really went above and beyond, with an incredibly child friendly atmosphere, the most comfortable high chairs I have ever seen, children's cutlery at breakfast and by far the best breakfast of all of the 5 star hotels during our trip. The bar staff offered an incredibly well synchronised table service and were very pleasant to chat to. By far the best table service I have every experienced. The whole hotel is spacious and well sized, the rooms do not disappoint in this area. The bed was incredibly comfortable with a pillow service on offer. The bathroom was a good size and the soap was also a very good quality. The view must be one of the best, overlooking Porto (however cranes did spoil this during our visit). It would be a pleasure to stay here again. One of the only hotels on our tour of Portugal to offer an iron and ironing board when requested!
Cons: The rooms were incredibly clean however we did spot a little dust. Tiny little touches to the furnishing were lacking such as a missing knob on the sliding door lock, and a non-soft close toilet (anybody who has one at home will understand the awkwardness of the SLAM when you let go of one that is not). I did also find an empty bottle of port in the topiary to the side of our terrace. Tiny little details, perhaps over analysing, but the rest of the service was so incredibly well delivered, to such a high standard, that this minor lack of attention to detail did let the side down a little.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: Peaceful quiet location with lovely view. Excellent facilities. Best breakfast I have ever had at a hotel! Helpful and friendly staff.
Cons: Rather a long walk to and from room to facilities. Sunlight never reached our balcony and if I stayed again, I would be sure to specify that our balcony had sunlight.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: This was our second time staying at The Yeatman because we loved it so much the first time. We got an upgrade to a superior room with panoramic view through booking.com which really made a big difference. The hotel is wonderful and we felt relaxed from the moment we arrived. The hotel has one of the best views in Europe, and the pool and the bar are fantastic. Very good breakfast too.
Cons: The restaurant is not great value and the menu for both lunch and dinner are average. Also it felt like they had cut staff at breakfast so you have to go and pick up your own cappuccino and omelettes.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: The breakfast was excellent and was a buffet with some hot dishes cooked to order. Lots of fresh fruit, breads, cereals, juices etc. However the real star is the ability to have your breakfast outside on the very large restaurant balcony with its stunning view over Porto. I cannot think of a better way to start the day than to have a relaxing breakfast on that balcony
Cons: I cannot think of anything that I didn't like. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and the location of the Hotel is excellent.

Pros: Clean, tidy room, bathroom also clean. Nothing more to wish from a hostel. I was a little bit surprised that you don't meet anyone on the reception. To check in, you have to call somebody, whose number you receive when booking. The person tells you everything you have to know on the phone. The first time I had something like that. But ok, it worked.
Cons: The room was next to a loud street, so it is hard to sleep at night with windows open.

Cons: The rooms overlooking the street could have air-conditioning. If you don't close the windows it's too loud to have a sound sleep, if you do, it gets stuffy. The fan doesn't help. Pay attention to check-in time - once you're late, your reservation gets cancelled

Pros: This small guesthouse was excellent in so many ways. Fantastic location -- close to riverfront, numerous port wine cellars and tours, restaurants, and shops. Friendly, helpful staff made me feel at home the moment I walked in the door. Loved my room -- bright, nicely updated, very comfortable bed...and a big shower with space to move around, a real plus for larger people! Air conditioning was a welcome treat, and wifi worked like a charm. It all felt like luxury to me, but at a very reasonable price.
Cons: Stairs were loud and I heard everyone going up and coming down, could have used some carpeting. Plenty of fresh clean towels, but I would like to have had a washcloth.

Pros: Very good location, absolutely kind and cozy. Staff was very pleasant.
Cons: One coffee machine in all apartment house, in ground floor, so if you are living in third floor and would like to drink coffee in the bed, you should climb back with coffee cup upstairs:))
5.8 Okay
Pros: The bathroom was clean and the AC worked properly. The staff was very friendly and nice.
Cons: There were no electric plugs near the bed. The bed had two mismatch pillows: one too soft, the other too hard. There is no elevator so I would have had to climb two flights of stairs with my luggage, being 8 months pregnant, had I arrived alone, because the reception was already closed when we arrived. The rooms didn’t have curtains, just blackouts.

Cons: Nothing. Everything was good :)

Pros: What a lovely guest house this was. Lovely personal attention on arrival, with a good and detailed explanation of the area and where to go, this accompanied with a glass of local port wine! They could do with a lift as the 3rd and 4th floor might be too much for some guests. Breakfast was excellent!
