Perfect location, classic hotel, refurbished rooms, nice river view and helpful staff. Poor wifi connection - very poor speed and quality. The lcd tv worked poorly, only spanish channels. There are some down sides on funtionality

Good location if you are in between Spain and Portugal. The hotel itself is nice if you’re looking for a standard business hotel. I booked a room with river view and paid extra for that and they placed me in a swimming pool view room. I only realized this after unpacking and checking my reservation later on to make sure...

A typical modern conference hotel, excellent room overlooking Spain and the Minho, but busy road adjacent. Good air conditioning and quite a large room with a very good shower, and everywhere very clean. The breakfast was good but the evening buffet meal was poor for a 4 star hotel, I expected waiter service. The lounge area was not homely. Outside... More

Very good position overlooking the river, and Spain. The hotel has been refurbished and is modern and comfortable. Great breakfast buffet, with real freshly squeezed orange juice on tap. Easy walk into Caminha, beautiful area, lovely in the evening to eat in the old square. Avoid hotel restaurant as overpriced and no atmosphere. The reception staff are and indifferent and... More

Stayed for 1 night on a business trip but know the region very well. The room had a fantastic view of the River Minho. Hotel is relatively modern. Was recently renovated. Room had flat screen tv and very clean. Room had a balcony. Since it was a weekday there were very few guests so that would explain the relatively weak... More

Porta do Sol is a good hotel, nothing extraordinary but good. Rooms are good, not very big neither small, regular size, clean, all rooms with balcony, and try to ask for a room with river/sea view (yes, the hotel is in the right spot of the estuary between the Minho river and the Atlantic ocean... wonderful), on the other side...

I decided to visit that part of Portugal last year. The only 4 star hotel available in the surroundings was this one, right beside the main road, at the entrance of this small town, Caminha. I expected thus, to be well acommodated and ready to visit this lovely portion of continental Portugal. The receptionists were cold, distant and indiferent. The... More
