Udo B.
There are so many restaurants nearby, and the views are great, with the house right on the water. The breakfast was lovely, and the staff helped with all my logistical questions. It's a small boutique guest house with only 8 rooms in the old section of town, right at the edge of all the action. Worth the cost, and I wish we'd stayed longer. There's a wonderful restaurant right next door you shouldn't miss. There are two ways into the house, and the top entrance is easier. Highly recommend!

The hosts were fabulous, the rooms comfortable, and the location perfect. Breakfast was great, too. They went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and gave us some nice extras, including wine and food, while they had to use a portable AC unit because their main AC was out.

The main issue for me was the beds. My wife and I were on our honeymoon, and the rooms advertised with double beds actually had two separate single beds pushed together. The room on the other side of ours was set up the same way, and even the photos seem to fudge this, so buyer beware. That's why I'm giving three stars. 1872 River House has a great spot right on the Duro River, next to a McDonalds. It's clean, the staff are very attentive, and breakfast in the morning was nice. Just be aware that no staff are on the premises after 10 p.m.

The location was wonderful, and we had a great room with views. We visited in June and would have liked working air conditioning, so I'm taking off one star for that. We managed with the fan and open windows. The provided airport transfer went smoothly, and I would recommend this hotel.

The location made it easy to explore both Porto and Gaia, and the included breakfast was a great start each day. There was coffee, espresso, cheese, yogurt and plenty of other breakfast options. Our room was quiet despite being right in a busy tourist area, with lots of space, a comfortable bed and pillows, and a lovely view. It was clean every day, too. The staff were kind and attentive. When we had an early tour and couldn't make breakfast, they brought breakfast and lunch bags to our room before we left. The 1872 River House had thoughtful touches, including a handwritten welcome note and cookies. I'd happily stay there again.
