We were staying at a lovely apartment in Gaia looking over the Yeatman. We saw on the Yeatman website that each week a wine dinner is held with the chef matching the wines being presented by a distinguished wine maker. We were very fortunate that the week we were there Peter Bright presented his Terra d'Alter wines with the amazing... More

When tasting ports in Gaia in May 2011 we were looking uphill and admiring the location of the by then newly opened Yeatman. We said that when coming back to Porto/Gaia we should stay at least a couple of days enjoying the views from the Yeatman. So we did, and we were not disappointed by the views. It is most... More

On a recent business trip, our hosts brought us to the Yeatman to impress us and to indulge us for a delightful afternoon. A definate success. We sat outside for our meeting and enjoyed the magnificent view of the infinity pool and manicured lawns with the river Douro in the background. Everything lived up to our expectations. After our meeting... More

My husband and I were impressed with the Yeatman from the moment we were welcomed into the grand entranceway. The courteous and well-trained concierge checked us in, and then a manager escorted us to our room, pointing out details in the thematic decor along the day. Our room was beautifully appointed and had jaw-dropping panoramic views of the Douro River... More

This is a fantastic hotel - It has an amazing location, and the newly-built hotel maximises the view across the city of Porto. The hotel is modern but exudes class, which obviously comes at a price. Well worth it, in my opinion. Some have said this is the best hotel in the World - I don't think I would go... More

We spent two nights at the Yeatman during our recent trip to Portugal. It is one of the finest places I've ever stayed. All of the rooms have beautiful views over the Douro River to the city of Porto. It's an easy walk down the hill to the gondola, which you can ride to the top of the bridge and... More

We stayed one night at The Yeatman. We chose the hotel primarily because we wanted to eat at the restaurant and thought it might be more convenient to just stay at the hotel. We are very glad we made that choice. It is a first class hotel, with very good service and magnificent views of Porto. The views, both day... More

On our arrival from Lisbon our room was not ready so instead of apology we were sent to the bar, after 40 min wait tried to attract the attention of the staff which avoided eye contact.
