Overall Ratings & Reviews Oporto Trendy River

Staff were great and we're very accommodating. We arrived at 3pm and unfortunately, our unit wasn't ready yet and we couldn't get in till 3:40pm. It would have been great to have been notified if they needed more time. The staff did let us rest at another unit while they were preparing ours. In all fairness, I believe they were replacing mattresses in the whole building that day so I understand if they needed more time. Place was great for multiple people but the main shower was pretty small. There's also a tax to be paid in cash which were not aware of and they asked us to pay it when we arrived in person. Again - would've been great to get a heads up on that. Porto is very hilly and this location sits at the bottom of the hill and is basically near the entry into the main part of town. It's quieter for sure, has an amazing view of the iconic bridge and there's still plenty of activities close by. However, you should be aware that there is quite a steep trek to get into the upper portion of town from where this residence. There is a fee based elevator close by however.

We had a great stay in Porto. The apartment was close to many sites. We walked all over town. The riverfront is very lively at night. Lots to do. We were able to find a parking spot right in front, then just kept renewing our time in the app. The AC worked great. The common areas inside the building (really just the landings on each floor) were dark at night. We couldn't figure out how to turn on any lights out there. The apartment was perfect for our 2 night visit to Porto.

Very close to the bridge

small property, but very nicely organised, with a close proximity to the river and other attractions. Bit busy as it's right at the heart of the city. Very clean and good facilities ,secure

Great place, well designed, nice view of the river and very comfortable. The only disappointment, and it is a minor one, is that we could not get the coffee maker to work.

Good

La atención de Ivanna espectacular. Lastima q no pudimos conocernos personalmente. Atenta, muy eficiente. 💞

The rooms were nice and the views were great. We found street parking easily and walked 5 mins. Into the city center. We would recommend.

The location and view is amazing. The staff was very helpful but all communication was via email or Whatsapp. We never got the stove top to work and the microwave only worked 30 secs at a time. There are steps to get out but only an elevator to go up. We wondered what we would do if the elevator was not working when we came home late one night!! Sleep downstairs?? The Apt was very nice and clean otherwise. You do have some killer stairs to climb to town center behind you. But easy walk to boats and bridges to cross. Great location if you don't mind a little exercise.

Great location. Close to the center and all attractions yet far enough to be quiet. Rooms were clean and AC was working great. We had a little terrace in the back which was nice to have. Parking can be difficult. We ended up finding a spot in the paid parking spot in front of the building and added E1.25 every two hours during the day so parking cost us E5 daily. Don’t need to pay anything between 5pm and 9am. You add money from the app so don’t need to be there either. Parking lots charge E50 for 72 hours. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Porto.

Parking is a major hassle but worth it

We love staying here when we stay in Porto. Very clean and conveniently located. Beautiful views

The location

A lovely apartment with a fantastic view. Everything was thought about, really comfy bed, lift to get to the apartment and very central. Large apartment with separate living room. Communication was excellent too. Would definitely stay again.

Great location and view of the river. Very clean except for the shower. Would stay again

Very good stay

Nice unit with fantastic views and plenty of space for the two of us. Good facilities, kitchen, bathroom, air-conditioning, etc, only issue was we were unable to get stations on the TV, appeared it wasn’t tuned or logged in but also difficult to resolve when you don’t speak or read Spanish. End result is I recommend this property and would stay again if in Porto.

The view of the river and one of the bridges is amazing. Check in was challenging since nobody was there to open the place for us. We had to ask one of the neighbors to call the contact number on our reservation. While we were waiting, we paid for parking along the sidewalk and later found out that this building does not have designated parking, even though the note when booking says parking is available upon request. The alternate options were paid public parking facilities and some where full or reviews rated them as unsafe. The apartment is beautiful inside, remodeled, comfortable beds, good bathroom and kitchen space. The location is close to central and very convenient.

If you are familiar with Portugal, then this place (aparthotel) will be just fine. There is no parking close by if you have your own vehicle. You will need to walk with your luggage on the streets ( unless you are dropped off close by). The self check-in was quite easy and the small elevator takes you to your floor. Communication was quite easy. The place is quiet and secure, and beds are comfortable. Place is a little compact ( including bathrooms) but adequate for our 1 night stay. You can walk by the river or to restaurants and bars close by. The place next door (which we could see) was quite run down but it didn’t affect us at all. Love the city of Porto! There’s lots to do.

Great apartment in best location!! Thank you
