Such a charming neighborhood/city just on the other side of the bridge into the heart of Porto. Everything is so close and so walkable. The port wine cellars and cable car are in Gaia along the river, and walking into Porto takes but just minutes.

This is in a hilly area so if you don't like walking up steep slopes or lots of steps then you will want transportation to get around. You can reduce the amount of slopes by walking via the Jardim do Morro and cross the upper bridge

Everything you needed on your door step with just a 15min walk across the river.
"Hotel Vinci is an excellent hotel. The location and view is breathtaking. You would need to walk to central locations, however, the train is right outside the hotel. We walked everywhere. It’s the best way to see the area. The hotel is on the river. Make sure to get a room in the higher floors to get a view. "

"Un superbe hôtel sur les rives du Douro à 25 min en uber du pont Louis xi
Un cadre exceptionnel, un hôtel avec une décoration raffinée, un personnel charmant, chaleureux.
Un service de restauration avec un restaurant le soir avec vue sur le Douro, très bon, copieux et pas très cher et un restaurant gastronomique 1ou 2 macarons Michelin au top. Une excellente cuisine a des prix qui restent raisonnables vu la qualité des préparations et du service. Sans hésiter le meilleur hôtel de Porto. "
"Excellent location with the best views of Porto from our room.
The staff was very welcoming and helpful.
Our breakfast was excellent.
The hotel has a wine cellar for tours, it also offers tours and other services (at discounted rates).
I'd definitely stay again if back in Porto."
