Visit Santa Maria Maior
Hotel PortoBay Santa Maria
Very friendly welcome and was also upgraded to a superior sea view room, which was clean and well-equipped, with a kitchen. Location was perfect at the quiet end of the front and close to the cable car station to Monte. Car parking in the basement was very handy and leaving it there after checkout ...

Arts In Hotel Conde Carvalhal
Nice hotel, within easy walking distance of old town. Room had a great view of the harbour to see the cruise ships. Friendly staff, clean room, parking but must be pre-booked with additional charge.
