Hilton Porto Gaia
Spacious room. Complimentary tea, coffee and bottled water. Excellent breakfast, with plenty of variety. The 3rd floor Cuzco bar serves great food and has impressive views of the Douro and the Ponte Luís. A stones throw from the riverside and in the heart of the port wine district.
