Great service and facilities. On walking distance from the old town (20m-30m). Other options also fine. Uber is very cheap and public transport closeby. Just didnt like the garage not easily accessible by stairs or lift from the appartments. Got lost in the garage, ended up in a completely different building, had to get to a completely different lift. Minor inconvenience fir an otherwise great stay. ##### Tjeerd Sjonk Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Not bad The hotel is the less-nice section of the Holiday Inn that it is housed in. This means that the rooms are not as nice but the amenities (pool, bar, dining room) are great. Our room had a broken lock and was missing towels and bedding when we arrived. The towels and bedding were resolved quickly, the lock never got fixed. The next day the cleaning staff cleaned up our room and took the used towels but didn’t replace them, leaving us with two towels for a family of 4\. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Moylene 26 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication This hotel was in Gaia a district near Porto. I didn't realize that it was not in Porto when I booked but it turned out to be a great stay. The location is quiet and we got to Porto using Uber daily. We needed 2 bedrooms since we have kids and it turns out it is not too easy to find affordable 2 bedroom hotels/accommodation in Europe so I was happy to find this residence. It was comfortable and clean. My only negative is that I requested fully stocked kitchen and indeed we were provided with some cutlery and crockery. There were no sharp knives to cut food and we did not have dish soap or sponge or paper towels which is usually a requirement, I would think, of a kitchen. Regardless we made it work and had a great stay. ##### Moylene Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert 8 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities Gaia Residence is in Holiday Inn but they don’t say this. You get a nice big room but it lacks the basics like a dust bin in the room and, dining table and chairs. There’s a tiny kitchen with a hob, kettle and microwave but not really useful without the dinner table. Breakfast on 2nd floor is fine but similar each day. Hotel is quite far out in Gaia city and not that well served by public transport although we used the Andente Tour card to get the buses within 10 minutes walk. There’s a supermarket about 5 minutes away where you can buy water and stuff. ##### Robert Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicolette 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Friendly staff and a great breakfast ##### Nicolette Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Chique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Hotel-Chique.h22435500.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto A.S. 1829 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Porto-AS-1829.h10086472.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Palacio do Freixo, Pousada & National Monument - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Pestana-Palacio-Do-Freixo-Pousada-National-Monument.h3081172.Hotel-Information) > > [Palacete Severo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Palacete-Severo.h111045220.Hotel-Information) > > [GA Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Hotel-GA-Palace.h92807493.Hotel-Information) > > [Pur Oporto Boutique Hotel by Actahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Puro-Porto-Boutique-Hotel.h48735203.Hotel-Information) > > [The Log Porto Hotel by Piamonte Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-The-Log-Porto-Hotel-By-Piamonte-Hotels.h113030905.Hotel-Information) > > [The House of Sandeman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-The-House-Of-Sandeman-Hostel-Suites.h22520628.Hotel-Information) > > [Torel 1884 Suites & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Torel-1884-Suites-Apartments.h31734275.Hotel-Information) > > [City View - Santo Ildefonso Luxury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Oporto-Invite-Santo-Ildefonso-Luxury.h36190324.Hotel-Information) > > [Timbre Virtudes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Hotel-Das-Virtudes.h91786964.Hotel-Information) > > [Fishtail Sea House - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Fishtail-Sea-House.h15163721.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa da Marechal - Boutique House by Oporto Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Casa-Da-Marechal-Boutique-Hotel.h108505140.Hotel-Information) > > [The Yeatman Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-The-Yeatman-Hotel.h3754232.Hotel-Information) > > [The Editory Boulevard Aliados Hotel - Preferred Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-The-Editory-Boulevard-Aliados-Hotel.h76633510.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosa Et Al Townhouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Rosa-Et-Al-Townhouse.h7945742.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosario's Boutique Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Rosarios-Boutique-Apartments.h29478179.Hotel-Information) > > [Mouzinho da Silveira 215 by LovelyStay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Mouzinho.h91526770.Hotel-Information) > > [Líbere Porto Laranjais](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Casa-Dos-Laranjais.h89420913.Hotel-Information) > > [Chic & Basic Gravity ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Chic-Basic-Gravity.h48630041.Hotel-Information) > > [PIPADOURO by YoursPorto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-PIPADOURO-By-YoursPorto.h15393120.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto Palácio Hotel by The Editory](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Porto-Palacio-Hotel-By-The-Editory.h13417.Hotel-Information) > > [OCA Flores Hotel Boutique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-FLORES-BOUTIQUE-HOTEL-SPA.h14757772.Hotel-Information) > > [The Social Hub Porto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-The-Social-Hub-Porto.h111146728.Hotel-Information) > > [Eurostars Porto Douro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Eurostars-Porto-Douro.h15051013.Hotel-Information) > > [Jam Porto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Hotel-Mouco.h65705276.Hotel-Information) > > [Pousada Porto - Rua das Flores](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Pousada-Porto-Rua-Das-Flores.h68601518.Hotel-Information) > > [BessaHotel Baixa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-BessHotel-Baixa.h41334099.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Porto - A Brasileira, City Center & Heritage Building](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Pestana-Porto-A-Brasileira.h22239419.Hotel-Information) ---
