Forte De Gaia: A New Name, Same Unparalleled Elegance

Luxury hospitality in northern Portugal reaches new heights as The Lodge Hotel transitions into Forte de Gaia – Autograph Collection, by Marriott International. This evolution cements the hotel’s place in the prestigious Autograph Collection, making it the first of its kind in the Porto region and only the third in Portugal.

Nestled in Vila Nova de Gaia, with stunning views of the Douro River and Porto, Forte de Gaia blends heritage with modern luxury. The new identity pays homage to the region’s deep-rooted winemaking traditions, aligning perfectly with the Autograph Collection’s philosophy of authenticity and uniqueness.

With 119 rooms and suites, a heated outdoor pool, exclusive wine cellar partnerships, and state-of-the-art event spaces, Forte de Gaia offers an elevated guest experience. Additionally, the integration into Marriott Bonvoy provides access to exclusive member benefits, including room upgrades and special offers.

Through a refined rebranding by NOHO, the hotel’s new visual identity strikes a balance between sophistication and cultural heritage, reinforcing its status as a premier luxury destination in northern Portugal.
