This is a very good hotel, maintained to high standard. Service is excellent. VIP status not recognised, no bottle of wine or room upgrade. Just a buffet for breakfast, no a la carte.Location not very good, and overall i think its an expensive option for Porto which in my opinion at least does not offer VFM.

Fabulous find in Porto
We loved our stay at the G A. from the moment we were greeted by the staff at the front door! We enjoyed the location and the pool in the late afternoons. The breakfast was outstanding and we would have happily stayed longer.

If you want a beautiful, elegant hotel with staff who would do anything to make your stay as pleasant as possible - look no further!!! My only regret was not staying here longer. Having a heated pool in the middle of Porto is an added bonus especially after a day of walking. The rooms are tastefully decorated, very bright and immaculately cleaned. Thank you GA Palace for an amazing stay.

This is a beautiful hotel with excellent facilities. The staff are outstanding just so friendly and knowledgeable about the area and happy to help with directions and recommendations whenever asked. Our room was large beautifully fitted and the marble bathroom and shower area equally impressive. Gorgeous shower gels etc liberally refilled when needed. The hotel is very well situated to explore all areas of Porto and approx 10-15 minutes downhill t the Ribiera which is so pretty. Ubers and taxis are easily accessible for trips back if you are tired or a little older like ourselves and not expensive. There is a bus stop right opposite the hotel and metro nearby. The breakfast room ( dining too) is lovely and a huge range of food provided it was a few dry every morning! The pool and spa is a welcome facility at the end of the day and a reasonable size for a city hotel. Unfortunately the old towels on chair problem was evident with sunbeds kept for 3 hours unoccupied on one occasion while we stayed. On discussion with staff they are going to address this so hopefully they can prevent this in the future. We would love to go back to Porto and would definitely choose this hotel again.

This is a gorgeous hotel. The rooms are large and luxurious with very large bathrooms, and the outdoor area/garden is lovely. We felt very indulged and taken care of while staying here, and the staff is incredibly gracious and helpful and just all-around lovely. The location is perfect as you're close to everything but it's quiet and an oasis once you're inside or in the pool/garden area. It's definitely one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in, and I would definitely return if I make it back to Porto. Highly recommended.
