Our take
I would choose Novotel Porto Gaia for a family stay with an outdoor pool and children's play areas, ten minutes by car from Porto's city centre. Pets are welcome and the restaurant and bar are on site. The hotel is not in the centre itself, so day trips into Porto mean a short drive. Expect a practical, family-oriented four-star rather than a boutique hotel.
- Take advantage of the outdoor pool during the summer months to cool off after your explorations.
- If you're travelling with family, use the indoor and outdoor playgrounds to keep the children entertained.
- Consider using a car or public transport to easily reach Porto city centre.
