Amy United States of America

The location was spectacular. Jorge was very helpful in getting us to the hotel.

Susan United States of America

Can't beat the location. Next to the bridge for easily crossing over into Porto but next to the Gaia Riverfront for amazing views, walking distance to all the port cellars. Clean apartment. Modern finishes. Parking garage next to the building.

Charity United States of America

Amazing views! Very clean and modern apartment. Easy check-in with phone-coordinated instructions upon arrival. Nice kitchen, small refrigerator, tea pot, coffee maker, etc. Comfortable beds. Minor issue with the WiFi but called and the staff immediately sent someone to fix--very responsive and friendly. Nothing to complain about with this place, and the views/location are very hard to beat!

Glen United States of America

The location of the apartment was exactly as promised, excellent and exceeded my expectations. Parking was excellent and convenient. Views were amazing. Kitchen had everything you could need on a holiday. Checking in was easy, given clear instructions by telephone for codes and keys. Building was very quiet.

Geraldeen Canada

Super close to center, awesome view, huge room, good price, fast internet, air conditioning system for hot and cold day

Brilliant location next to the Luis II bridge with perfect views of the river. The room is also very close to the port wine cellars. The apartment was also lovely and clean and very spacious.

Company info

At Pátio 25 we have our own take on what experiencing a city really means. We are proud to have a profound knowledge of the immediate surroundings of each apartment, each one of them located in historic neighborhoods full of attractions. This means we know all the tricks and tips of the neighbourhood, the neighbours themselves, the especial dishes of the around-the-corner chef, and the can give some precious tips on our favourite local cultural acts. We believe it is by blending local knowledge with the grandiosity of the must-see touristic attractions that our guests can have the most complete and lively stay in the city. We want you to bring back home memories of a trip that will stand out as one of a kind. In fact, we are experts in doing so. Enjoy.

Property info

The Porto View Apartments are modern, air-conditioned and fully equipped apartments with a truly majestic view to the riverside of the famous Douro. These apartments provide the best of two worlds: one the one hand they are less than 400m from the heart of fascinating Porto (the Ribeira area), and on the other they offer an amazing view of Porto itself because they are situated right across the river near the landmark Ponte D. Luis. However, in Gaia's side of the river there is also a fascinating city to discover, with the iconic Port Wine's centuries old “Caves” just around the corner.
