A wonderful new renovated house in the old city. The host are very friendly and helpful with everything. The hotel has definetly a higher standard, than the stars might tell. The breakfast provided a wide variety of everything. Even peanut butter 😉You have the town right infront of your steps, but you here nothing of it inside. Car park and the next bus stop are near by.

Norte Region highlights

Porto historic centre

Antique façades and grandiose monuments serve as a background for the city’s modern nightlife in Porto’s uniquely cosmopolitan historic centre.

Peneda-Gerês National Park

Spanning over 70,000 hectares, Peneda-Gerês National Park is flourishing with nature trails that meander through its vibrant flora and fauna.

Touring the Douro River

Glide past breath-taking green slopes, vineyards and mountains while touring this UNESCO World Heritage region by boat or steam locomotive.

Guimarães

Known as the birthplace of the Portuguese nationality, Guimarães demonstrates the country’s progression with its medieval-to-modern day architecture.

Braga's religious heritage

Braga is well-known for its remarkable religious ancestry evident in its sacred monuments like Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary and Braga Cathedral.

Port wine cellar tours

Sample original barrel-and-bottle-aged Port wine at one of the many riverfront cellars for a true taste of this regional favourite.

Paiva River rafting

Twists, dips, thrills and spills await rafters of all levels at the pristine Pavia River rapids bordered by lush wildlife.

Santa Luzia Sanctuary

The splendour of this byzantine sanctuary is equally matched by the glorious views over Viana do Castelo and the Limia River estuary.

Our Lady of Remedies Sanctuary

Sitting at the top of an impressive 9-flight, zigzagging staircase decorated with blue-hued azulejo tiles is this splendid baroque-style sanctuary.

FAQs about hotels in Norte Region

The Essence of Portugal

With fabulous beaches stretching from Caminha by the Spanish border to just south of Espinho, Portugal’s Norte region is known for beautiful scenery and historic cities.

Most Norte hotels on Booking.com are in its UNESCO World Heritage-listed capital Porto (or Oporto). Attractively spread over hills, it has wine cellars storing port from the Douro River Valley vineyards upstream.

Voted one of Portugal’s most liveable cities, Vila Real has the Mateus house overlooking a peaceful pond. Guimarães boasts a UNESCO World Heritage-listed historical centre and is known as the ‘birthplace of the Portugal’. Its stately castle and the Palace of the Dukes of Bragança are well worth a visit.

Bragança itself is by Montesinho Natural Park in north-east Norte, and a keep remains from its former castle. Chaves also has a castle keep and a Roman stone bridge, but unlike Braga, it no longer has remains of its Roman baths, erected over hot springs. Braga’s crowning glory is the Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary, set high in hills, with a wonderful staircase and garden overlooking the city.

South of Galicia is the beautiful Peneda-Gerês area, Portugal’s only national park, and to its west is Viana do Castelo with its Norte beach hotels set on Blue Flag beaches. Also noteworthy is impressive Basilica de Santa Luzia, surveying the riverfront town below.

I recently stayed at Sin Sexes Hotel in Douro, and it was an unforgettable experience. The breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape were absolutely stunning, making every moment feel like a dream. The bed was extremely comfortable, providing a perfect night's sleep, and the spa facilities were top-notch, offering a truly relaxing retreat.The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of options to suit all tastes. Additionally, the proximity to local wineries was a fantastic bonus. The wines we tasted were exceptional, adding to the overall charm of our stay.The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any requests and ensure we had a pleasant stay.I highly recommend Sin Sexes Hotel for anyone looking for a luxurious and serene getaway in Douro. It truly exceeded all our expectations.

We had an outstanding stay. The staff was highly service minded at check-in and check-out (Fransesca), amazing view of Porto from our hotel/room and a free upgrade was a very pleasant surprise. The breakfast at the terrace was an excellent start of the day. Yeatman's proximity to the WoW (World of Wine) museum was brilliant and the museum was very interesting in a modern educational setting. We will come back and stay at the Yeatman again.

Our hotel was perfectly located. Not far from the river.

Our hotel was perfectly located. Not far from the river. 400m from Torre dos Clérigos and a 5min walk from the Luís I Bridge. We stayed in the road called R. Das Flores, which is a busy street but with great restaurants and shops I loved the Douro River tour in the Douro Valley - It was the highlight of my holiday. We ate a few places and loved every restaurant Everything was in walking distance but we also enjoyed a Tuk Tuk tour with Daniel I am definitely returning to Porto. I fell in love with city.

It has a lot of history, with older churches and castle fortresses. Very walkable and scenic. I was told by a Portuguese local early in my trip that Braga has a lot of older retirees visit and reside there, and that's accurate. I found Braga affordable, although housing costs can be too much.

Intertesting port town with a huge monastery on top of a hill. Loved the restaurants and it is easy to drive to other areas of Northern Portugal from there. The weather was comfortable, too. Be sure to bring Euros for tram ride to monastery. We went there to rest and relax between our Spain and Portugal tours.

This small city was an absolute gem - stunning ancient squares and streets filled with lovely cafes and restaurants, altogether not as touristy as it could have been and very easy to walk around. We dined in two of the main squares with traditional Portuguese cuisine and inexpensive wines, and lovely ice cream outlets. We took the cablecar up the hillside and walked back down. We visited the Ducal palace (fantastic reconstruction) and castle (ruin). We could easily have spent a week here relaxing and taking in the atmosphere. And very easy to reach from Oporto.

Beach at Esposende too difficult to swim in due to pepples.

Beach at Esposende too difficult to swim in due to pepples. Other beaches at Ofir and Apulia excellent. Limited supply of restaurants and limitless supply of banks!!! Surprised by the obvious wealth amongst the Portuguese people with holiday homes here. Very few estrangers. Not for sailors. Good for families. Some surprising sculptures dotted around the esplanade from 1997 one in particular near the San Lorenca fort at Esponsende.

This place gets a well-deserved 5 stars—no doubt about it!

This place gets a well-deserved 5 stars—no doubt about it! From the moment we walked in, it felt warm, cozy, and totally like home. It’s huge, sparkling clean, and honestly… it looks even better than in the photos (and that’s saying something!). Usually with apartments that look this good, you think: “Yeah right, too good to be true.” But nope—this one actually turned out to be better than too good! It’s got everything. And I mean everything: coffee machine, iron, washing machine, dishwasher… you name it, it’s there—and all in tip-top shape. We were just the two of us, but there’s more than enough space for 4 or even 6 people to hang out comfortably. And the view… wow. Just wow. Need a room with a view? Look no further—this is the one!

I love Chaves, small ancient town which has a river going through it with its own Roman bridge going across it… wonderful restaurants, the food is amazing here in the north of Portugal! Amazing places to stay with fabulous Portuguese restaurants! You’re also close to one of the nicest wine regions in the world! If you drive go trough Régua up the Douro where the grapes are grown! Unbelievable gorgeous, truly stunning
