Viana do Castelo accommodation from AU$128

Kill some time people-watching or have a chat with some of the local residents at Praca da Republica, a popular public space. Spend a few nights at Hotel Flôr de Sal and Casa Melo Alvim, and you won't be too far from this attraction. There's nothing quite like the serenity of sprawling by the sea. Be sure to venture to Cabedelo Beach. Rest your head at Hotel Laranjeira and Hotel Jardim Viana do Castelo and you can visit this site as often as you'd like.

The Hotel Calatrava is one of the very few cheap and cheerful choices in Viana do Castelo.

For some alternatives, try the Quinta da Bouça d'Arques - Guest House and the Axis Ofir Beach Resort Hotel. They are 9 kilometres and 20 kilometres respectively from the main center. Wotif also suggests the Quinta Do Monteverde and the Design and Wine Hotel. The first is 8 kilometres away from the center, while the second is 20 kilometres away.

If you want to check out some close by localities, consider Afife and Barroselas. Travel 10 kilometres to the north from Viana do Castelo and you'll discover Afife. That said, Barroselas is 12 kilometres to the southeast. Hotels and apartments in Afife include the Hotel Meira and Albergaria Quim Barreiros. Barroselas options include the Casa do Monte de Roques and Quinta de Malta.

If watching sport gives you an adrenaline buzz, go to Estadio Municipal de Braga. It's to the southeast of Viana do Castelo. The Melia Braga Hotel & Spa and the Hotel Bracara Augusta are good options if you want to sleep close by.

Located 50 kilometres away from Viana do Castelo is Dr. Francisco de Sa Carneiro Airport. Stay nearby at the Holiday Inn Express Porto - Exponor or the Park Hotel Porto Aeroporto.
