Four addresses with a strong design
| Hotel | Area | The design | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torel Avantgarde | Rua da Restauração, above the Douro | Rooms honouring artists, pool with river view | On the hillside, expect climbs |
| Casa do Conto | Cedofeita | 6 rooms, geometric patterns, central staircase and skylight | Very small, sells out quickly |
| PortoBay Teatro | Centre | Theatre theme, reception desks styled as old ticket offices | Less intimate than a small hotel |
| The Yeatman | Gaia, facing the Ribeira | Infinity pool, starred restaurant, wine cellar | Very expensive, more luxury than design |
Prices depend on the date: we give none, compare them on Booking.
How to choose
To sleep in the centre in a contemporary setting, the PortoBay Teatro is the simplest; for calm and the arts, the Casa do Conto in Cedofeita (hotels in Cedofeita and Bolhão). For a pool with a view, see hotels with a pool and where to stay in Vila Nova de Gaia. For other hotels with character, read boutique hotels and 5-star hotels.
