Taking the Port in Porto

A customer from SUDBURY who stayed at 4* Vila Gale Porto in Porto wrote this review.

We booked a couple of Ryanair flights from Stansted to Porto, then a short taxi drive to the Vila Gale Hotel. We have stayed in couple of Vila gale Hotels before and this one didn't dissapoint. great location with city views from 17th floor window. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast a fantastic bufffet. Used by lots of coach tour companies but other than the lifts being very crowded on a couple of occassions we encountered no problems.

Public Transport

A customer from Hampshire who stayed at 4* Vila Gale Porto in Porto wrote this review.

Use of the Metro trains recommended as they are on time, clean and reasonably priced.Tickets can be bought for the day and for different zones. We used the Metro to take us back to the airport- not much longer than a taxi and far cheaper!!
