🏨
Porto's finest hotel — a wine hotel perched on the hillside of Vila Nova de Gaia opposite the city, with infinity pool views over the Douro River and Ribeira, two Michelin stars in the restaurant, and the most comprehensive cellar of Portuguese wine anywhere on Earth. The view at sunset is worth the splurge.
🏨
Europe's most award-winning hostel — a 19th-century townhouse in the Bonfim neighborhood with rotating art exhibitions in every room, an excellent restaurant, weekly gallery openings, and a community of travelers who keep coming back. Gallery Hostel has consistently been named the world's best hostel.
🏨
An architectural boutique hotel in a restored 19th-century house near the Clérigos Tower, where each room is a different design statement and the common areas function as an ongoing contemporary art exhibition. One of the most intellectually stimulating places to stay in Portugal.
