The Yeatman is located in Gaia and offers great views over Porto. The hotel was cleverly decided with the majority of the rooms plus public spaces having balconies. The room are big, the breakfast was good and the only I think I did not like was charging 20€ per night in their own car park. COVID-19 status: hotel is open and you can see they take care in assuring that most of the things and clean and even protected in plastic (e.g. beach towels)

Occupying a breathtaking position overlooking the Douro River and the historic city centre, The Yeatman enjoys stunning panoramic views from its extensive grounds and individually appointed guest rooms with their own private terraces. A haven for wine lovers and those wishing to explore the fascinating world of Port and other wines from Portugal's best producers. The Restaurant favours the importance of food and wine pairing and both the restaurant and wine list have won prizes including two Michelin star.

Member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux collection of hotels and distinguished with a Michelin Star for its restaurant under the direction of Chef Ricardo Costa, The Yeatman Hotel in Porto is a unique and distinctive landmark in the world of classic luxury hotels.

Timeless elegance and a wealth of authentic detail create a very special atmosphere which evokes the distinctive personality of this ancient city and its historic link to the world of wine. Occupying a commanding hillside position on the south bank of the River Douro, every room at The Yeatman Hotel enjoys breathtaking, panoramic views over the historic centre of Porto.

Fantastic place, best view of Porto , best hotel in Porto area. The restaurant Orangerie has just amazing food and the 2 stars Michelin restaurant , The Restaurant, is the best food experience you may have, tasting all the flavours from north to south of Portugal!An overall +5 stars experience!

Very nice hotel w fantastic view across the strait. Gracious rooms w good facilities, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, decent gym, and a Michelin three star restaurant onsite. Very generous selection for breakfast, which is not common in Europe. Can’t ask for more for a hotel

One of the best hotel ever!!! This is hotel absolutely fantastic and special!! Everything perfect there, incredible view and location, atmosphere, kindly and nicely staff, very good restaurant with 2 Michelin stars, outdoor and indoor swimming pool, spa. All rooms have special design, history about wine, a lot of interesting books and amazing room, especially you will love to see this unforgettable view from bathtube 💞🔥Highly recommend for stay in this hotel and enjoy Porto. I will be back for sure!!! Thanks a lot.

Had a late dinner at the Orangerie. Service was excellent. Staff were very helpful and warm. Food was also great except for the small portion sizes and cost. Beautiful view!

Excellent place.. Amazing view towards the city of OPorto and its river, specially at night. Friendly staff, helpful and with a smile. Great sunset party, full thumbs up.

The Yeatman is amazing in every sense, The hospitality, The food, The decor and not to mention the stunning views of Oporto. I would recommend this special Château to the world. Thank you for making us feel so welcome, especially the beautiful staff and including us in all your wonderful events. All success for the future, you deserve all five stars and more!

Do you like amazing views? Do you love wine and enjoy drinking it? Do you enjoy a luxury hotel with excellent service?

If you answered yes, then you'll love the Yeatman. If you answered no, then there's other hotels across the river for you.

Great views, friendly staff, but at the esplanade they only do snacks. It’s a bit disappointing, they should do tapas to go with expensive bottle of wine. Veg option, lettuce and walnuts. Really..?!

Perfect Spot for a dinner with a view! We had a Light Lunch at yeatmans and yes, it is a bit pricy... Ok, its expensive... 😉
But sitting There at the terrace is definately worth it! The view is amazing

We went for sunset drinks. The views are very good but not that great. Service was very slow... We asked for a gin&tonic and a cocktail and they took more than half an hour to serve it. Plus the gin & tonic was very simple: no lemon, no black pepper... and the cocktail was ridiculously small. Also they didn't bring any coasters, nor snacks.
For the price you pay they should look at theses details.....
The idea was having dinner too but we left.

We've got party there (only). The food was amazing, staff so friendly, and I cannot imagine better place for such kind of event. It was perfect evening.

A beautiful hotel with amazing views!

After a little disappointing start on our stay (I had used a lot of time in advance to communicate with the management to be sure that there was a bottle of sparkling wine and some fruits at our room at arrival as a surprise for my wife – and they did not manage it at all…) I have to admit that this is one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever visiting. Take a look at my attached photos and you will understand!

Our beautiful and spacious room (no 720) had a large outdoor private terrace and spectacular panoramic view towards Porto across the river. Very comfortable beds and spotlessly clean!

The bath looks onto the bedroom, with a louvre shutter divide that can be opened or closed with a separate toilet and stand-alone shower. The shower is small, and the positioning of the door makes it a little difficult. The products are good quality and what you would expect for a high-class hotel like this.

The restaurant terrace is lovely for a drink and the pool was perfect for sunning, although it was cold to swim when we were there. The indoor infinity swimming pool had marvellous views over Porto and this view as you swim on an evening is something that I will remember for ever.

The breakfast was amazing with a very nice buffet selection (see my attached photos!) and supplemented with a menu for additional hot dishes. The wait staff were always checking and taking care of our needs.

My wife and I had a massage in the SPA area and it was very professional!

The staff create a feeling of calm and nothing was too much trouble.

In summary this is a special hotel for a romantic getaway!

I had been 5 stars from me if they had managed my order at arrival.

Awesome experience... With excellent, fresh food made to suit each diner's individual palate. The ambience is very good, with attention to detail and the superb view adds to the charm. Everything about it is superlative and that is not an exaggeration.. It merely justifies the multiple michelin stars the place has earned year after year. Chef Ricardo Costa is a very unassuming man, with a very clean and well run kitchen. This place is to be experienced and enjoyed as a destination...

Tranquil retreat from the bustling city of Porto. Excellent service, lovely food and wine, superb spa treatments.
Views of the city across the river that you'll never tire of.

If anyone is looking for great deals on hotels go to HotelRaven. com Booked a room on there and they had the best rates around...

Amazing hotel. More than friendly and always helpful staff. Great breakfast with spectacular view of Porto. Huge rooms with private balcony. Huge spa and swimming pool

I only went to have a coffee at the restaurant to see the astonishing views that the hotel has at night of the city Oporto

If i didn t had a great house at Virgin Hill and need to choose a hotel to stay, i would prefer te Yeatman.

Expensive, pompous, overly ornate. But the service is impeccable in the way you only find in a hotel of this caliber and the views at the bar are absolutely unparalleled! Watch out for the seagulls, though-they're brazen and won't hesitate before snatching your beer snacks!

Amazing hotel. More than friendly and always helpful staff. Great breakfast with spectacular view of Porto. Huge rooms with private balcony. Huge spa and swimming pool

Maybe the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Excellent, with lovely views over Porto, especially at night. Just everything we hoped for plus more.

Stunning hotel and amazing food when we attended a wedding at the Yeatman. Very unique place with stunning views

We went for the gastronomic experience. Highly recommend, especially the seafood and surprise snack courses.

Very stylish. Lovely rooms and a great bar and pool. World class view

Great place to be... excellent service & food. Beautiful view from the room on 2nd floor...

What can we say all you can expect in a 5 star and more you will enjoy thanks

Just came for a cocktail on the terrace. Literally the best view in Porto. Of Porto. Looks an amazing hotel. Swimming pool looks super cool!

Went for dinner only at the hotel, great service and the food was wonderful. Will definitely return next time we're in Porto!

I had the tasting menu and also the wine tasting to accompany the food. I was somewhat skeptical, but it was absolutely amazing. Food was fantastic, service was perfect and the wine was delightful. Overall, a wonderful experience that I'd recommend to anyone who is willing to pay for it. Prices are insanely high, the highest I've seen, but it is worth it. The view is also intoxicating. Note that despite the small portions, it'll satiate your appetite.

Very fantastic view and comfortable.
Nice pool (indoor and out door).
Very kind

Amazing place for an afternoon drink or evening! It was one of the best views of Porto

Dinner was amazing. One of the best meals of my life. Great views and service, food was fantastic, and the wine pairings were very generous!

While you are in Porto you have to visit this place and enjoy the beautiful view over the city.

The most wonderful hotel with the best view of Porto. Oh and the service is absolutely incredible

We only went for a glass of Port wine at the bar/ terrace. Very nice ambience. Amazing view. Totally recomend

Beautiful restaurant with beautiful views. That's the end of the wow factor with this disappointing 2 star experience. We all enjoyed the service and the evening but. And it's a big but. We were all scratching our heads as to why it has 2 stars. Nothing really pushed the boundaries apart from the pre dinner surprises which were all great. You have options of 3 tasting menus. One which has chefs surprise from the extensive tasting menu. The squid was especially bad. My quail was returned to the kitchen undercooked. When your paying close to a €1000 for dinner you expect amazing! So you get a very critical but honest review.

Well what can i say...The best experience. People really care about you.

Special place with amazing staff, food and a view to die for... Highly recommend it.

Great rooftop bar with stunning view from the huge open air terrace, and good selection of porto based cocktails

Breathtaking views, simply amazing! it's a beautiful hotel that blends perfectly in the hills of Porto. The service was top notch. Wonderful experience.

Situated on a hill above all the Port wine caves, you have an amazing view to Porto on the other side of the river. High standard of service.

Five star hotel with 2 Michelin star restaurant.
Great views and service

One of the most delicious and beautiful 6+ course meals I have ever had. This micihealn star restaurant in the beautiful Yeatman Hotel is a must visit when in Porto, Portugal!!!

It’s a hiiiiiike up from the river, but worth it for the views. We stopped by the Yeatman Hotel for a drink on their patio. Pleasant staff, comfortable outdoor spaces, and unbeatable views. Recommended.

The Yeatman is situated just above the river providing you with exceptional views of the beautiful city of Porto. The piano bar area is a small delight with excellent service and nice drinks. My personal highlight was Fererando who is in charge of the wine experience. The hotel has a little wine shop with a nice selection of wines. Most important Ferando is a wonderful passionate wine professional. He is knows a lot about local and other Portuguese wines. As luck has it the first bottle was faulty and oxidised, the second one hat cork. The third one was fine. All changed in the utmost wonderful professional manner. The finger foods could be better a the hotel they are not of a 5 star quality neither was the bread served with the various dishes. Go for the wine and the service and if you want you can book a table is the extravagant beautiful 2 star Michelin restaurant. THANK YOU for an most excellent evening. I hope to return soon.

Best hotel in Gaia and definitely the best view and the best outdoor pool in the Porto area.

Best of wine tourism in Porto. 5 stars hotel with exclusive services.

Incredible place, the view is gorgeous, the decoration is Beautiful. The restaurant can be pricey as the chef holds 2 Michelin stars, if that is a problem you can try the bar where they have more affordable food. Try the Francesinha there!

The view on the Douro river and old downtown of Porto is beautiful but the interior of the hotel is quite ugly. Looks like an hotel in Las Vegas.

Awesome hotel with a fabulous location and views. Also a great day spa.

Memorable. Top of the dining spectrum. Incredible food paired with impeccable service - it doesn't get much better than this. Of our three days in Porto, this was by far, the best evening, hands down! Cost wise, on the high end but if you are visiting Porto and want one GOOD dining experience, this is it!!!!! I

Perfect experience and combination excellent food, outstanding service and sophisticated environment. A team of extraordinary professionals working together.

Amazing, simply amazing. The place is beautiful and the view is beyond belief. Staff is warm and friendly with an encyclopedic knowledge of the local area and it's wines.

It's all about the view at the Yeatman. Large comfortable rooms with large terraces have stunning views of old town Porto and the bridge. The views are just as stunning after sunset when Porto lights up, Even your bathtub can have a panoramic view of Porto if you wish (just close the shutters in the bathroom if you would prefer privacy). The hotel has a beautiful indoor pool and relaxing bar both with views. The breakfast is unmissable and the dining room also has a fantastic view. The hotel is opposite Taylors Wine Lodge which has a great bar, restaurant, terrace and shop. Yes, the hotel is a short very steep walk up from the Duoro river in Vila Nova de Gaia, but you can also take a more level walk into central Vila Nova de Gaia where you can visit El Corte Ingles for shopping or get the tram into Porto city itself. However, upon arriving at the hotel you may not wish to leave the view on offer! This is one of the essential places to stay in Porto.

This review is for the lunch restaurant Orangerie. We took the lunch menu with 3 wines in pairing (60 euro per person). It was nothing short of fantastic! The waitresses were lovely, too. And the view simply is outstanding! Really worth every penny!

Review of the restaurant: wonderful views. The lunch deal is really good value for money. Great menus served

The best food, wine and service I've experienced ever! Truly outstanding. Travelling throughout the world I have been lucky to have experienced many fine dining experiences and stayed in some of the most luxurious hotels. This beats them all and the service is so effortlessly perfect you really feel like you are the most important guest in the hotel. The views are amazing and the hotel rooms all look out to the beautiful old town and the Douro valley. If you come to Porto then you have to stay here for a wholly memorable experience of everything porto has to offer. A huge thank you to all the fantastic team at The Yeatman!

Wonderful experience! Had dinner here on a trip to Porto. Food was delicious, service is the best we've had in Porto, and the views are stunning. Highly recommended.

Visit the rooftop bar lounge to see one of the most panoramic views of the river overlooking the Ribeira. The unique cocktail selection is endless, albeit pricey. A lovely sophisticated and regal environment to enjoy a quiet and relaxing break from being a tourist.

This hotel is incredible. The staff is simply amazing. They we above and beyond every expectation. My 8 year old had a birthday while we were staying there. They made him feel like the king of a castle. He cried when we checked out! The rooms are spacious, clean and the views are breathtaking. The pools are lovely. The food is some of the best I have ever eaten. I would recommend this 1000 times.

The Yeatman is a luxury wine hotel and spa and offers the very best of Portugal: from gastronomy and wine to the art of good hospitality. It is a member of highly respected chain Relais & Châteaux, with 82 bedrooms and suites overlooking Porto and the Douro River.

The very best thing about The Yeatman is the view you get of Porto across the from your room and terrace -- I think every room has one. Otherwise, the hotel does not live up to what I expected and is only above average in its restaurant and service. The rooms are a nice size, but aren't all that "traveler friendly" -- e.g., no drawers to store your clothes. I thought the Michelin starred restaurant was very disappointing and chose to eat in local restaurants riverside for Portuguese cuisine. The walk from my room to the elevators was the length of 3 football fields. The gardens are lovely and the pool very nice, but the gym was disappointing. I didn't take advantage of the spa facilities. The staff was friendly, but clearly a training staff, both very young and inexperienced.
