The hotel situated in Gaia, a city famous for port wine, It's just a brief stroll away from the Douro River and several Port wine cellars. From Porto São Bento train station it takes approximately 15 minutes by car to reach to the hotel.
You'll be struck by incredibly spacious lobby as soon as you walk in. The unique architecture of the refurbished wine warehouse immediately catches your attention, with darker tones dominating the hotel's color scheme. Comfortable contemporary seating options are available to help you unwind and relax.


The room's interior begins with a darker tone and gradually becomes brighter as you approach the window. The bathroom was equipped with a very spacious walk-in shower.
The Executive Lounge boasts magnificent views. Throughout the day, guests can help themselves to a selection of soft drinks and hot beverages, along with a few snack options. Additionally, a happy hour is held from 5 to 7 pm.

Pool : Located in the basement of the hotel, Expansive spa area which includes two saunas, a cooldown room, swimming and bathing area.

The pool's temperature is heated to a comfortable warmth, and I particularly relished the Jacuzzi pool.
Breakfast located on the first floor, hosted an enormous breakfast buffet. The spread featured an extensive variety of options, including a live cooking station.
Pastel de Nata is served fresh, warm, and delightfully crispy. The taste is simply irresistible.
Ground Caffé Bar offers a selection of national wines and cocktail.
The bartender was not only friendly and welcoming but also very knowledgeable about the city. He even provided me with some valuable tips on places to visit.
For those seeking a relaxing stay in Porto and its surroundings, this is the perfect destination. The hotel's prime location makes it an ideal base for exploration of the area. The modern property boasts a uniquely luxurious interior, adding to the excitement of the stay.
I highly recommend this hotel and would love to stay here again in the future.
