Spacious and full of light, Porto Premium River View I apartment is located in an old building in the heart of Ribeira, Porto’s most typical and charming neighborhood.
This fantastic apartment, located on the first floor, offers a breathtaking and unique view, making you feel as if you are on a boat! It is also in a fantastic location, right in the historic center of Porto, where the city was born and where most of the attractions are just a short walk away. The famous Dom Luís I Bridge, the Palácio da Bolsa, and the Alfândega Center are all within a 5-minute walk, where you can also enjoy beautiful river views, close to the locals of Ribeira and their still very characteristic lifestyle.
Crossing the bridge, you can visit the wine cellars and taste one of the most famous wines in the world – Port wine.
Right across the street is the stunning Church of São Francisco, with its extraordinary Portuguese gilded woodwork.
Guests can also explore the riverside, along the picturesque fishing neighborhoods, either on foot or by bike, heading towards the old and elegant area of Foz, where the river meets the sea and the air is strong and fresh (about 7 km away). For the less active, there are trams dating from the 1930s that also go to Foz.
Next to it are the boats that travel up the river towards the famous Douro vineyards, as well as the São Bento train station, from where trains head north to the picturesque Minho region, home to its most famous hallmark: "vinho verde" (green wine).
Don’t miss this for anything in the world!

Spacious apartment perfected situated to explore Porto with stunning views directly on the river.
A couple of issues with entry and the TV set up were quickly resolved after a call to the hosts.
Rented the place because of the view over the river and proximity to riverside restaurants. Great location although not easy for cabs to get to, so had to schlep heavy bags a few hundred feet and up one story. Bed was comfy and TV had cable so we got to watch some Portuguese TV on a rainy night.
Great place to stay, right on the river and in a fun, safe part of town. Apartment was precisely as expected from pictures. The kitchen is very well equipped. Check-in was handled very efficiently and they arranged an airport transfer for us. There is one flight of stairs up to apartment. We really enjoyed our 3 weeks here. There was some outside noise in the afternoon and evening because the apartment is located over a restaurant. On Jan 22nd, noisy renovations started on the first floor during day time hours. We'ld be delighted to return here
Appartement situé au 1 étage sans balcon mais avec une très belle vue .
Beau séjour et cuisine fonctionnelle, salle de bain un peu petite . Literie de bonne qualité . Pas d’accueil physique mais un digicode pour la porte de rue et un autre code pour la porte d’entrée de l’appartement.

The check in was self service. Never met anyone to explain the apartment. Got the code to the door after we had stood outside by MacDonalds for over 2 hours.
The stairs leading into the building were dark and very smelly. There are lights but very dim.
Be sure and bring your own coffee. We had asked about coffee when we booked and were told there would be some for us to use. There were 2 pods for the 2 of us for 5 nights. When I contacted the property manager I was told that the 2 pods were a welcome gift.
Location was nice and view was good from the main room only. There is no balcony as described in the listing. Sorry to say, this apartment is nothing special.
