Beautiful place to stay in Porto
So many things to love about the GA Palace Hotel. The room and bed was really comfortable with a large bathroom (double sinks), great restaurant, day spa and pool. We were only there for two nights, however, choose to eat meals all meals at the hotel restaurant or use room service, apart from the lunch we had in the Douro Valley.

Terrific time at this hotel
What a wonderful discovery the GA Palace was! A wonderful location, only to be outdone by the incredible decor. The attention to detail was outstanding. The garden area for dining or lounging equally beautiful. A great pool area. The service was second to none. Can’t recommend this hotel enough.

Fantastic Hotel.
My wife and I had an amazing stay at GA Palace. Maybe one of the nicest hotel experiences we’ve ever had.
As soon as we walked into the lobby, The smell of it was the nicest ever, the details from the flowers, lighting, art, and the interior design was elegant. Not to mention the friendly staff. Breakfast was as good as it gets, the pool and spa and outdoor patios completed the place. I highly recommend staying here. Thanks for a perfect romantic stay

Beautiful hotel
We loved the hotel, the rooms were so comfortable and clean and the common areas were beautiful. We felt that the hotel was well located; not eighth in the center of everything but totally walkable and near nice restaurants and other sites. The staff was friendly and attentive; the breakfast was amazing; the spa was wonderful.
