The best part was the location. Walking distance from everywhere, right before the tunnel which is where the traffic begins. Will stay here again. Breakfast buffet pastries are great. Sometimes they have passion fruit.

Stay Hotel Porto Aeroporto
Breakfast was very reasonable (10€) and decent spread for a continental breakfast - beats paying much more for airport food. Reception staff were very friendly and approachable. Bar was open for snacks after late flight arrivals and able to take up to the room which was great. About 7 minutes walk ...
