Gran Cruz House

10/10 Excellent

"The room was beautiful! So was the view!"

Guest House Douro

10/10 Excellent

"The best part of staying here – by far – was the amazing staff! One staff member in particular was there the entire time we were, and gave us wonderful recommendations, He was so kind and so helpful … basically putting together an itinerary for our day with some fantastic suggestions. He also orchestrated our breakfast – which was delicious! Aside from that, the location is very central. It's a busy area with a great view of the river and lots of activity! I highly recommend staying here."

Exmo Hotel by Olivia

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay!! The staff were super friendly and helpful, and gave us a ton of local recommendations. The room and hotel were very clean, and the breakfast was fantastic as well. The location was also prime- walking distance to so much, and a quick walk down to the water front. I recommend taking the hop on/hop on bus down the street to explore the rest of Porto. We will definitely be back! "

Oporto Street Fonte Taurina
