Where to stay in Viana do Castelo

Wake up to river views in the old town or to the sound of the waves by the beach. Viana has a cosy place for every kind of trip.

Stay in the historic centre and you can walk to restaurants, the river and the funicular up to Santa Luzia. Prefer the beach? Choose a spot near the coast and spend your days in the water. Everything is close, so you're never far from the town or the sea.
