Exploring the Area

The hotel is a bit far from the Old Town unlike the Hilton Porto but there is a nice park, Jardim de Soares dos Reis a few minutes walk from the hotel.

CONCLUSION

After staying at the Hilton Porto Gaia, we decided to stay at the other Hilton property which is located a bit far from the city center. The hotel itself is very nice with a display of their Port wines in the lobby as well as some beautiful paintings along the corridor leading to the elevators. The room we got was spacious and had a separate living area and bedroom, thanks to the generous upgrade. Just like at the Hilton Porto, the upgrade was to several room category which was fantastic. The spa and pool area was very nice and we got to enjoy it a lot since we were the only ones there during our visit. As for the breakfast offering, the buffet was very nice as well as the English breakfast I ordered from one of the servers. Overall, we really had an enjoyable time at the Boeira Garden Hotel and would highly recommend it to everyone 😊
