A gem at the river. If your budget allows try to book a room with river view. Yes the zone before is busy until late in the night but windows cut most of the noise off and in summer you want to use the aircondition anyway. Amazing friendly staff treating us like family and friends.

From the moment we booked, the Porto River team was incredibly kind and attentive—offering transportation and assistance with our luggage, which is greatly appreciated given the hotel’s privileged (and somewhat hard-to-reach) location right on the Douro River. Check-in was quick and efficient, and the room… simply one of the best I’ve stayed in anywhere in the world. Overlooking the Douro, the space was impeccably maintained and beautifully modernized. It was spacious and well-designed, with a kitchenette, dining table, comfortable sofa, and four balconies offering breathtaking views. Despite being in a lively area, the reinforced windows kept most of the street noise out, allowing for restful nights. The staff also provided excellent restaurant recommendations, adding a thoughtful personal touch to our stay. I would return to Porto River Hotel without hesitation—highly recommended for anyone visiting Porto.

This is the perfect location for your visit to Porto! Very close to all the attractions of the city. But be advised, the street below is very energetic and alive with sounds, so our sound machine at night was helpful. The room was lively and had all that we needed, the breakfast was exceptional. The front desk staff was very accommodating. We would highly recommend this hotel!

I had read in some reviews that the rooms had cockroaches. Our room did. Also, because the hotel is right above several restaurants, our room being on the first floor had a very strong fishy smell. Staff were very friendly and helpful though, and the apartment had all the amenities we needed.

Great location. Be advised I parked at the nearby SABA location suggested by hotel and it cost 63 euros for one night! The staff is friendly and helpful. Many restaurants nearby. I would stay again but make other arrangements for the car.

It was perfect as it always is - honestly the only downside was a guy called Carlos who works in the restaurant who made me put a tip and then when I gave him a decent tip he started negotiating for a higher tip - tipping is not standard in Portugal or anywhere in Europe and I even gave him a good review on another website after he begged me to. It was a shame then for him to insist I tipped him (fine) and then start bartering with me to give him a higher tip like I’m in a bazaar in Istanbul (not fine).
