Meliá ría was great! Location and property are really good . Breakfast as well. The only odd thing is that they charge you for the pool use, that having kids it’s a must. This wasn’t clear when booking

Melia Ria has a perfect location, just a few minutes walk from the main attractions in this small town. The hotel is an excellent option when you are doing a road trip through Portugal, we were doing Porto to Lisbon and chose this stop to enjoy this small but charming town and also Costa Nova, pretty close to there. The facility is good, it has a good restaurant and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The parking of the hotel is very small and annoying, but there are options for free in the neighborhood, honestly, trying to use the underground parking that they will charge daily was a waste of time.

This seems most like a conference hotel. Perfectly nice, nice breakfast, nice spa and workout room, where we had very nice massages, nice staff. While the canal ends at the hotel, it is not very scenic. If we hadn't needed a king bed, an elevator and a/c, we would have looked for something more traditional near the original canals. Also, we made the mistake of thinking a canal boat ride would take us past the striped boat houses, but it doesn't. (Poor research on our part.) They are in Costa Nova. No real reason to visit Aveiro unless you can do a day trip to Costa Nova.

This is a wonderful hotel directly on the canal. The staff is amazing. Couples massage was wonderful. We were treated like royalty after a bad experience in Porto in the Portus Cale Hotel. Highly recommend this hotel, it was exceptional!

Great stay, highly recommend!
The location was great, very walkable to shops and restaurants. We appreciate the covered parking which was very secure. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and extra pillows were available. There was plenty of closet and storage space. We appreciated having coffee/tea available in the room with the kettle. The bathroom was clean with a very nice shower and good size countertop for storing toiletries. One of the best things was the restaurant and bar in the hotel. We enjoyed a light meal at the bar the night of our arrival; friendly service and excellent food. The breakfast buffet was terrific, great food quality and selection. The full english breakfast was a special treat that we don't get to enjoy very often. Food items were fresh, replenished regularly and staff kept tables clean between guests. Staff members were friendly, polite and helpful.
