Perfect accommodation in a perfect location. We stayed in a Studio with Balcony which looked straight onto the river & Dom Luís bridge, a room with a view. We felt part of the river front atmosphere. Room was beautiful. Breakfast is downstairs in Ribeira 50 cafe/bar. Lovely buffet breakfast. Bar has small range of snacks & food great to come back to at the end of the day. We were delighted with Porto River. There is an excellent restaurant next door called Casario, we went 3 times. Be sure to book & request terrace seating.

Great location, friendly and helpful staff. We expected to hear noise from the bars/restaurants all around the property, but we were pleasantly surprised with our quietest sleep anywhere in our 3 weeks in Portugal. The staff was fantastic, answering our questions, loaning us an umbrella, and offering a different room (without us asking) when there was a minor maintenance issue

Large apartment with good amount of space. two beds and bathrooms. Phenomenal location on the water, lots of restaurants and things to do right outside. Nicely decorated and renovated old building. Great breakfast with filtered coffee! Comfortable bed and linens. Taxis can pick you up in front of hotel. Good a/c and water pressure (had some issues with both)

We loved everything about this hotel. It is right in the middle of everything and it is in impeccable condition. The staff were friendly and helpful. The apartment was spacious and clean, and wow what a view! We enjoyed the outside music, although sometimes the entertainment was too close together and that could be irritating, but when we closed the windows it was fine. The breakfast had some vegan options, which is important to us. They provided us with soy milk, but I'd recommend adding soy or other non-dairy milk as a standard at the buffet table instead of having to ask for it. Would certainly recommend this hotel!

The primary benefit of this hotel is its location next to the Douro River. It is a beautiful area with outdoor eating and music. One should note that the rest of Porto is uphill from this location -- anyone with mobility issues should give this consideration. The hotel staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. Our well-appointed room featured a separate living area with kitchen, plus bedroom and full bath. Nice for extended stays. It was clean, quiet and comfortable. Our view was limited by a close building. Breakfast was easy and complete. We would have no hesitation choosing this hotel should we return to Porto.

We stayed over New Year’s Eve, it was absolutely amazing. They view was great and the location perfect right in front of the river and plaza. We were able to see the fireworks from our window. We had the apartment on the fifth floor, which was the only apartment on that floor. The personnel were very friendly and helpful. We arrived a bit too early but we were able to store our luggages and they even brought them up to our room before we checked in. They guided us up and explained us the apartment, provided us complementary fruits and a bottle of sparkling wine which was very accommodating. The breakfast was small and okay, fresh fruits, cereals and we could choose between an omelette or a pancake. Overall we were very happy with our stay and can 100% recommend it!

This is a superb room in a fantastic area. Ribiera in Porto is one of the outstanding areas in the world, a brilliant river area with an amazing vibe. Better than Las Ramblas for people watching, wonderful food, great street music. And this Hotel is right in the middle of it all at a great room rate. I probably shouldn't say that or they may increase it ;) The only mistake we made was to leave. The view of the river is not to be missed.

Location was exceptional with a view of the bridge. Our room was super clean and large. The hostess took time to show us the apartment and the staff was very kind and helpful. We loved our stay, highly recommend this hotel. The breakfast was exceptional with both hot and cold dishes. We travel a lot and this is one of our favour places to stay. We also had dinner downstairs at Chez Lapin and it was delicious and the service was outstanding. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant. After visiting 2 countries, 6 cities this was our favourite place.

My teen son, husband and I had a wonderful stay at Porto River Apartments. The staff were super-friendly and helpful. It was immaculately clean and comfortable, and very well appointed. Great care and imagination have been put into the guest experience and we enjoyed a whole week there very happily. The hotel even catered for my gluten-free, vegetarian diet at breakfast, which was most appreciated (tasty GF bread, omelettes). Special shout-out for the housekeeping, which was top-notch.
