Porto Hotel Guide. Hotels in São Nicolau, Porto, Portugal

"The staff were highly professional and attentive to making our stay enjoyable and worry free, ahead of, during our stay, and as we continued our holiday elsewhere. The combination of an idealistic location and a fitting accommodation to meet the beauty of that picturesque locale overlooking the Douro River and the Dom Luis I bridge. My wife and I loved this hotel, and the busy areas in the daytime became a quiet sanctuary with seemingly private views in the night for our February stay. The hotels style is a perfect blend of rustic aged beauty, with modern touches. Loved!"

"Our stay at 1872 River House by Olivia in Porto was truly exceptional. The hotel is perfectly located right in front of the river, in the heart of the touristic area, yet it maintains an intimate and charming atmosphere. Everything is within walking distance — major attractions, beautiful viewpoints, and countless restaurants just steps away. The hotel itself is small but absolutely beautiful. It has a unique historic character, with ancient Porto vibes that make you feel as if you’ve stepped into another century, yet with all the comfort and elegance of a boutique stay. Every detail in the décor is thoughtful and well curated. Service was outstanding from the very beginning. Check-in was very fast, and they even accommodated us earlier than expected. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they gave us wonderful recommendations for exploring the city. One of the most special touches was the surprise they prepared for my husband’s birthday — a bottle of wine, homemade cookies, pastel de nata typical of the region, and a handwritten card wishing him a happy birthday. It was such a thoughtful detail, and we truly appreciated the care behind it. Breakfast was served in the cafeteria right in front of the water, which made mornings even more magical. Breakfast was included and delicious. They also had tea, coffee, and fresh fruits available for guests throughout the day, which was such a nice extra touch. Overall, an unforgettable experience. We would absolutely"
