Best Hotels in Porto (2026)

Choosing where to stay in Porto is mostly a choice between three areas. The Baixa and the Avenida dos Aliados are the most practical base, close to the metro, São Bento station and most of the sights; options here range from the InterContinental in the Palácio das Cardosas and the five-star Infante Sagres to the historic Grande Hotel do Porto on Rua de Santa Catarina. The Passenger Hostel, inside São Bento station itself, is a stylish budget choice, and Gallery Hostel on Rua Miguel Bombarda puts you in the art gallery district.

The Ribeira suits travellers who want the river on the doorstep: Pestana Vintage Porto occupies six historic buildings on Praça da Ribeira, and Hotel Carris Porto Ribeira is just above the quay. Expect lively evenings and steep, cobbled access. Across the river in Vila Nova de Gaia, The Yeatman offers luxury, infinity pools and a two-Michelin-star restaurant with views back over the old town, in exchange for a short taxi ride or a climb at night. Book early for summer and for the São João festival in June, and remember that Porto charges a tourist tax per person per night.
