Top hotels in Madalena

Porto Palácio Hotel by The Editory
Great hotel, great value. Only thing letting it down is the breakfast (not good value) and the “spa” facilities, the pool and jacuzzi were very dated. Other than that the people were all really nice and helpful, the room was great size and comfy bed.

Stay Hotel Porto Aeroporto
My pet peeve is the 4:00 pm check in time. It should be 2:00 pm, like most other hotels. Other than that the hotel is nice, convenient, updated and clean

Hilton Porto Gaia
Hotel located across the river from Porto making it a little less busy. Parking was great with valet included. Full breakfast buffet was very good. Concierge was helpful to plan port tasting options nearby The room was very spacious yet weird design choices. They promote environmental stewardship ...
