Expert reviews
“Opposite Porto’s Ribeira district, directly beside the River Douro’s edge, stands The Rebello housed within a collection of restored and reimagined 18th-century stone warehouses. This is Vila Nova de Gaia, the birthplace of the Port industry, that 300 years on, remains world-famous for its Port lodges and cellars.”
“Design savvy and art-filled, the Rebello opened in 2023 in Vila Nova de Gaia and offers knockout views of Porto, across the Douro River, from many of its 103 apartment-style rooms. A roof bar, pool, spa, restaurant and cafe are also in the converted 19th-century stone building, which is near the Ferreira port-wine house.”
“The Bomporto group’s third hotel in Portugal, after Lisbon outposts the Lumiares and the Vintage, offers 103 suites housed in 19th-century industrial buildings on the edge of the Douro River. It comes with a rooftop bar; a cocooning spa that has a pool and a restaurant that serves Portuguese comfort food to share.”

All you need to know
Nestled right on the riverbank of Vila Nova de Gaia, The Rebello is this really cool mix of old-world charm and modern design. The hotel is built into 19th-century stone warehouses, so you get the solid, rugged feel of Porto’s industrial past, but with all the comforts of a luxe 5-star stay.
Think loft-style suites, floor-to-ceiling windows, and design details that pay homage to its wine-warehouse roots. It’s not pretentious luxury, but rather a warm, welcoming place where you feel like a local who’s just temporarily upgraded.
When it comes to relaxing, The Rebello has your back. Their spa is something else: Roman-inspired baths, a semi-heated indoor pool framed by ancient-style artifacts, sauna — basically the perfect spot to unwind.
And for food? You’ve got two restaurants, plus their rooftop bar, which is honestly a gem: panoramic views over Porto, small petisco plates, and cocktails that hit just right.

Great location close to everything but quiet sleeping
Excellent location with everything you need for a short stay. Beautiful river view with a window that opened to hear the sounds. Loved the complimentary bar and Rebel theme. We purchased the included breakfast. Breakfast was great and accommodated my gluten free allergy with options. Concierge at check in gave excellent recommendations. I think his name was Miguel. He was fantastic! I would absolutely stay here again.
The cleaning was a little rushed but still fine. This was likely due to us booking the room last minute and they had a lot of check ins.

Amazing hotel, second visit, will stay again.
Great room 329. fantastic view over the river Douro. comfortable bed, very clean. Kettle, toaster, dishwasher, oven, hob. First drinks from the mini bar were free. Breakfast was brilliant lots of choice including freshly cooked eggs however you liked, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes and more on the hot side. Car parking available. Walking distance to restaurants.
Maid turned the air con on while we were at dinner, room was very hot when we got back.

Amazing upgrade with spacious room, great rooftop views, and excellent breakfast - wished we could h
We were upgraded to a huge and stunning room. Much better than we expected. Breakfast was varied and delicious. We enjoyed the night when we arrived with drinks and something to eat with an amazing view at the ROOFTOP.
The service at breakfast is slow. Because of the quality coffee and eggs that they prepare specially according to each guest's requirements, the service becomes slow and it's a pity - if there were a variety of pre-prepared eggs for example, this would speed up the process.

Nice property and staff!
Very amazing property - in the best location just out of the center. They put us in larger room and we had some snacks rooftop. Overall nice stay where the level of professionalism was appreciated

breakfast was amazing and had a long service period which was grea. The spa was small and the gym was adequate but could do with better air conditioning.. The ability to have late check out was much appreciated as travelling with a baby! The location was superb and the roof top restaurant has the best view in Porto!! Staff were very attendtive and the cleaning daily was amazing considering they were cleaning up a messy family of 5 in our apartment!
Gym could of been larger and better air conditioned.

Fantastic hotel. Service was top class and the location was good. It's out of the way of busy-Ness but close enough to the main spots you can easily walk.
I enjoyed everything.

Exceptional hotel in converted warehouse with iconic views over the Douro river .
The size and comfort of our well appointed one bedroom suite in this converted warehouse building was extra special , perfectly located next to the Douro river and an ideal space to relax after a days site seeing . It also had a well equipped kitchen for those wanting to eat in , although food options on the hotel and locally meant we didn’t have too ! The view over the port area to the main bridge was amazing . Breakfast was also exceptional and the location was ideal , with only a short walk over the bridge to the historic area of Porto across the river. And not to forget the staff who were friendly and helpful at all times. Can’t wait to go back !
Not much really . Maybe a steam room to the spa but that’s all .

Staying at The Rebello was a real highlight of our time in Porto. Our room overlooked the river and the iconic bridge — simply breathtaking, and honestly one of the best views you could imagine in the city. The hotel strikes the perfect balance: tucked away from the noise, yet close enough to walk right into the heart of the action. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and the whole hotel carried a sophisticated, cosmopolitan vibe. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice, and the staff were polite and professional throughout. A fantastic stay — I’d return in a heartbeat!

Amazing stay. Go if you can!
Everything. We had a wonderful 2-bedroom apartment facing the river, perfect for a family of 4. The location was unbeatable.
The lunch wasn’t to our liking, the breakfast though was great.

A room with an amazing view
The view from our balcony is to die for. Location is highly convenient. Roll out of the hotel and stroll along the riverside to catch a boat trip and/or sample some wine from the array of port houses lining the Douro river.
If you step onto the balcony in early hours of morning between 1am to 4am, you can hear music relatively close by. Unsure where it is coming from. Luckily you can't hear anything if you are in your room.

The best hotel we stay this year. Very good location in Gaia. Prefect classic view of Porto with the iconic bridge from the bedroom. Everything is clean and staff are excellent and very attentive to details. Room is very good size with cooking facility. Cannot not mention about the breakfast which is much better than any proper cafe and restaurants.

Come for the amazing views of the river, stay because the service is so warm and personable.
Boasting a truly breathtaking location that is both walkable to the historic center and removed enough to feel like a calm getaway, the Rebello has amazing views, beautiful design, an excellent spa, and — perhaps most importantly — a truly kind and helpful staff.

Amazing, loved the hotel would certainly come back.
It was stylish, clean, smart and our two rooms were in an apartment with gorgeous balcony and kitchen. A perfect combination for a family with teenagers. Great breakfast, lots of choices and a beautiful spa that wasn’t busy.
The roof terrace was beautiful but it took ages to get a drink.

Fabulous views!
The views were amazing! Breakfast and dinner menu (on the terrace) were very good. Great location for visiting the port houses.
Breakfast was quite cramped and very busy but there was an excellent choice. The ferry across the river wasn’t working so it’s quite a walk to get to the other side.
