Managed by AHM – Ace Hospitality Management, the Origine Porto Gaia hotel has 70 rooms, a restaurant, a champagne bar, and a gym. The project, with architecture by NN studio and interiors by Nano Design, allowed for the creation of 70 rooms, spread over five floors and organized into 14 types.
Origine Porto Gaia is located where the Douro meets the Atlantic, between iconic bridges and streets that hold centuries of memories. We drew inspiration from the soul of the region, its people, and the passion of those who visit us to create a refuge where tradition and sophistication intertwine with the naturalness of those who belong to this place. More than a hotel, we want to be a port of departure and arrival, where time slows down and every detail carries fragments of history. The unique character of each room is part of our identity. The Cais-me Bem restaurant, with its view and Portuguese cuisine, aims to be the place for every day and for special days. And to make a difference, Cota 219, our Champagne Bar, has also been created, designed as a new meeting place in the city. Origine invites you to experience the best of our culture with a contemporary look, always with the river as a backdrop and the inspiration to be, today, what our history has taught us to be," says Tiago Duarte, General Manager, in a statement.
“The opening of Origine Porto Gaia represents another step in consolidating Mercan Properties' presence in northern Portugal. It is our 14th hotel in the country and the 7th in Greater Porto, reflecting our commitment to the development of the hotel sector and our confidence in the region's tourism potential. It is also our first property in Vila Nova de Gaia, opened under the Tribute Portfolio by Marriott brand, which reinforces the ambition of the project and the Marriott group's confidence in our vision. It is with great satisfaction that we open the doors of Origine Porto Gaia, maintaining our commitment to excellence and focus on the development of hotel projects in line with the highest international standards. We want to continue to generate a positive impact, both economically and socially, in the regions where we operate," says Jordi Vilanova, President of Mercan Properties.
“Origine Porto Gaia is our third five-star hotel, bringing the number of units managed by AHM to 14. This project consolidates our role as a white label operator and also reinforces our commitment to the restaurant business. We believe in its potential to strengthen the region's hotel offering and contribute positively to the local community and the positioning of the destination," concludes Mariano Faz, CEO of AHM - Ace Hospitality Management, the company responsible for managing Origine Porto Gaia, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel.
