to get started.

Lovely location on the river. Expected noise at night, but very quiet. Restaurant right next door very good. All of the staff exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable.

Charles, United States of America

Truly the nicest place I’ve ever stayed. The staff were amazing- friendly helpful and totally spoiled us. We were right on the river and views from the balcony and breakfast area outrageousness. First time I’ve ever happiky hung out in a breakfast area or lounge. It between the view, the comfortable seating, interesting books, the self serve beer and snacks and the glasses of port that showed up it was great! Lovely breakfast (amazing continental plus ‘to order’ eggs and bacon) offered ‘whenever’. Simply Devine!

Mary, United States of America

This was truly a home away from home. I have very high standards and my stay her was perfect. The place is beautiful: modern, incredible views, and great location. The staff were so kind and caring. If you go to Porto you must stay here. I will be staying here again.

Valorie, United States of America

Anita, United States of America

Location, location, location! In the heart of the historical and happening Ribeira district, the house has magnificent views of the river and the popular Gaia waterfront and port houses on the opposite bank. Dozens of restaurants are steps away and Maria, Carolina, and the staff helped us secure reservations at some of the top places in town. Perfect for walkers or those who just want to take in the scenery.

Haynes, United States of America

Amazing breakfast, wonderful staff, great location

Simon, United Kingdom

Most romantic place I have stayed. 7 and 8 are the best in our opinion. Staff is so friendly. Best location!

Luis, United States of America

Wonderfully attentive staff. An easy "recommend"!

David, United States of America

Gorgeous room, view of the Douro River. Good location, with a little effort everywhere we wanted to go was in walking distance. Excellent breakfasts. But most of all the most excellent, friendly, helpful staff I've ever experienced.

Area Info – This neighborhood is a great choice for travelers interested in architecture, city walks and wine – Check location Guests loved walking around the neighborhood!

Porto's old town is full of crumbling pastel-colored houses. It's peaceful and relatively untouched – despite being designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it's still off most tourists' radars.
