A new addition to Portugal’s hospitality sector, the Tivoli Kopke Porto Gaia Resort, has opened in the town of Vila Nova de Gaia, offering visitors a refined experience rooted in the area's legacy of winemaking. This hotel, developed from the historic Kopke wine storage facilities, integrates tradition with modern luxury. Its prime location on the southern edge of the Douro River provides guests with a panoramic view of Porto and easy access to the historical and culinary attractions of the area.

The property spans twenty thousand square meters and features 149 meticulously designed accommodation spaces.

Additionally, easy access to Porto’s UNESCO-listed center allows travelers to delve into the city’s architectural and cultural marvels. Those interested in nature excursions can venture into the Douro Valley, a short journey away, to experience Portugal’s scenic vineyard landscapes.
