My Ribeira Guest House

Great location and wonderful staff!

Amazing place, very comfortable and really friendly staff!! Highly recommended.

I stayed in the studio apartment. The room was spacious with a small kitchnette that included a stove, mini fridge, tea kettle. The shower while a little small, always had hot water, so that was a win for me. I had the breakfast option included in my stay and the breakfast included fresh orange juice, coffee, yogurt bowl, cheese, ham and baked goods. The guest house has a cute coffee shop on the main floor. For a couple of early days where I had an earlier start than breakfast service (which starts at 8:30am) the staff was kind to pack me some baked goods to go. Location Pros:The guest house is located a block away from the river and very close to the Luis I bridge. So the location is great if you want to be near the water. I loved being able to walk by the river early morning and late evenings, so I found the location convenient. Location Cons: the guest house is located right next to a tunnel, so you definitely will hear cars/bikes revving and honking (though the shutters do help muffle the noise) throughout the day and night. To walk towards the town center you will always be climbing uphill, so be prepared. If you want to stay near town center and not climb steep streets everyday (most out of city tours run from near city center), I'd recommend staying in Sao Bento area. Also, there is no elevator in the building, which I didn't mind as I only had a carry on and only had to climb one flight of stairs to my room.

Best location while in Porto, 4 min to the riverside. Great staff and easy to deal with and informative as well. There is no elevator but we were booked on the first floor (actually 2nd floor)
