Beautiful hotel with great service and lovely staff. Only one tiny thing. My dresses were too long for the hanging space in the wardrobe and I’m very short. Apart from that all was perfect.

So many things to love about the GA Palace Hotel. The room and bed was really comfortable with a large bathroom (double sinks), great restaurant, day spa and pool. We were only there for two nights, however, choose to eat meals all meals at the hotel restaurant or use room service, apart from the lunch we had in the Douro Valley.

What a wonderful discovery the GA Palace was! A wonderful location, only to be outdone by the incredible decor. The attention to detail was outstanding. The garden area for dining or lounging equally beautiful. A great pool area. The service was second to none. Can’t recommend this hotel enough.

We loved the hotel, the rooms were so comfortable and clean and the common areas were beautiful. We felt that the hotel was well located; not eighth in the center of everything but totally walkable and near nice restaurants and other sites. The staff was friendly and attentive; the breakfast was amazing; the spa was wonderful.
