Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Guimaraes
For the vast majority of visitors, Francisco Sa Carneiro International Airport (OPO) is the superior gateway. Located in the neighboring city of Porto, it is the only major international hub with extensive direct transport options to Guimarães. Travelers prioritizing budget should look here, as the combination of bus and rail connections is highly competitive. Vigo Airport (VGO), also in a neighboring city, serves as a useful alternative, particularly for those entering from Spain, though it lacks the frequent direct transit links found at Porto. Santiago de Compostela Airport (SCQ), Vila Real Airport (VRL), and Viseu Airport (VSE) are all located in neighboring cities and primarily serve regional demand. Unless you are specifically flying into these locations for secondary reasons, the transfer times and costs involved make them significantly less convenient than arriving via Porto. Always confirm local bus schedules, as many regional services across northern Portugal operate on irregular, non-daily intervals.

Perfect service. 24-hour reception. Located a little outside Guimaraes, but within walking distance of the historic center. Free parking opposite the entrance. Huge room. All the amenities. The only thing missing is a bit of soundproofing, because you can hear the cars on the first floor. Otherwise, everything was fine.FromUS$48

Das Hotel liegt etwas versteckt in der Altstadt. Von hier ist alles sehr gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Wir waren zur Akrobatik WM unseres Sohnes da und werden bestimmt wieder kommen. Eine wunderschöne Altstadt mit vielen guten Restaurants. Der Weg zur Halle ca. 20 min. , der Weg zum Flixbus ca. 15 min. Das Frühstück wird einem an den Platz gebracht, es fehlt an nichts. Auf Wünsche wurde super freundlich eingegangen. Auch sprachlich gab es weder in deutsch noch englisch Probleme.FromUS$95

Costa|0.13km from city center
The hotel is in an ancient monastery and it makes all the charm and attraction of the place if you like ”old stones and historical places”. The renovation has kept the original building and improved it to todays comfort. The rooms ( cells) are small but well fitted with a comfortable bed and functional bathroom. You can feel History when you enter the building and anywhere you walk . They have a big outdoor park for pleasant walks .
The church adjacent to the Hotel is worth visiting. I was staying on a weekend and I attended the Sunday mass.
My only negative note is on the breakfast which is very disappointing in terms of product variety and quality. The set up of the breakfast buffet is very poor and not attractive at all. The breakfast team is not as welcoming and friendly as the front desk or lady at the bar, which is not meeting one's expectations in such a place.FromUS$142

We came to spend a night in this hotel on Sunday Easter. Very nice and well designed hotel. The first double standard table we stayed was very small. We asked for change to one at the same level but with better view and were very reasonable.
The spa entrances were not controlled, which led to overtime of people at the time. The restaurant area is the same as breakfast area, and the food is median. It is preferable dinner in the city center since we are at 500m. very good breakfast.
Free parking very limited.FromUS$94

Exceptional! . That would be the word to summarize the stay! 😍, both for the place and the human treatment you can find and will give you.
It is a stay in an old house rehabilitated in a boutique hotel with 14 rooms each and each of them different and those I could see, which one of them most beautiful, each with its personality and identity.
The hotel is very comfortable and very comfortable.
It has a small swimming pool that we enjoy at the end of the day or what good it does not have time, you can use it 24h. The people staying a silence that we all seemed to be at home and enjoy that quiet.
The hotel is very comfortable and very comfortable.
The small town of Guimaraes is a treasure to discover.
The attention received at reception by Soreaia and her fellow was exquisite.
The hotel was very comfortable and very comfortable and very comfortable.

The hotel’s sports facilities are first-rate, but the mattresses are relatively hard and need to be improved.
The staff is friendly, the SPA is quite good, the 25-meter swimming pool is great, the GYM is very powerful, and the Gym staff is very nice and friendly.
The breakfast can be improved, it can be said to be right, but not very good.
One night the air conditioner broke down and they changed the room at noon. It was not very pleasant, but the staff tried to solve all the problems in the most friendly way, which left me with a bittersweet taste because I woke up very tired, but Can't be disrupted because people want to solve it in a very friendly way, generally I recommend the hotel and will repeat it again regardless of defects.FromUS$93
