Delightful hotel
Delightful hotel, very high quality rooms and super comfortable bed and linens. My only complaint is that there were no USB outlets in the room. There were 12 electrical outlets, surely in a 5 star hotel one of these could be changed to a USB port, it is 2024 after all!

10/10 Exceptional

The G.A. Palace is absolutely a 5 Star property. From the moment you arrive, the welcome and assistance of staff (most bi/triingual) is just outstanding. The facility is beautifully decorated and appointed; rooms and suites are spacious, with useful and luxurious amenities. The hotel offers an amazing outdor-indoor pool with loungers, sauna, steam room, spa and fitness room. The breakfast is beyond anything I've experienced with a tremendous choice, all fresh, and staff on hand to greet you and assist, pour beverages . The Acqua dining rom is superb - we had an absolutely delicious dinner (our table had chicken and vegetarian main dishes), with helpful service for wine selection as we were not too familiar with Portugese wines. They picked a winer! Plus the hotel is certainley within walking distance of best things and areas to take in (although Porto has hills!) I would absolutely stay here again and can recommend the GA Palace if staying in Porto.

Folks! This is the BEST Hotel that I have ever stayed in, in all the countries. Service is just tops. No request is big. And all that with a smile. Smiles everywhere. Fantastic hotel. And the manager, Mr “Burundi” Valentine is just phenomenal. If I ever come to Porto again (next summer hopefully), will only stay here. Fantastic.

Pleasant and memorable stay
This was a luxurious stay with attentive customer service. The breakfast had an excellent selection of fruits, eggs and pastries, and coffee and egg orders could be taken from the table. Turn down service included and pool has both an indoor and outdoor option. A great stay with easy access across the city.

8/10 Very good

This is a very good hotel, maintained to high standard. Service is excellent. VIP status not recognised, no bottle of wine or room upgrade. Just a buffet for breakfast, no a la carte.Location not very good, and overall i think its an expensive option for Porto which in my opinion at least does not offer VFM.

Fabulous find in Porto
We loved our stay at the G A. from the moment we were greeted by the staff at the front door! We enjoyed the location and the pool in the late afternoons. The breakfast was outstanding and we would have happily stayed longer.
