The one piece of feedback that I have for this hotel is to not put perfume on the carpets in the hallways. It appeared that they were using some kind of perfume in the hallways which is not good for customers with breathing problems. Otherwise this was a lovely hotel, close to everything and on the river.

The hotel was incredibly welcoming when we arrived, they offered us breakfast whilst they finished getting our room ready very early. The breakfast was fantastic with so much variety and a few hot things included too. We were then escorted to our room and our bags were brought up for us, the room was comfy and clean and attended daily. The location is also ideal in Ribeira and near lots of restaurants and bars. As I walked around on holiday I didn’t see anywhere I would have rather stayed. I did at one point ask at reception on any suggestions of places to visit or things to do and they weren’t able to suggest anything, which was disappointing. I do think this was just bad luck on who was at reception though as the people who checked us in had recommended a restaurant and seemed much more forthcoming. The only actual issue we had was our 4am check out, despite booking our transfer and therefore knowing our departure time there was nobody at the reception, and the doors were of course locked at that hour. If I hadn’t managed to find the staff room by the bar and luckily knocked on the right door we could’ve been waiting and stressed and missed our transfer. We did get out fine and he was very polite and apologetic, I would just recommend planning breaks around expected departures in future. Overall though one of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in, really pleasant to enter and walk around, ideal location, lovely staff, would definitely stay again or recommend to others.

Beautiful Porto
My sister and I visited the hotel for a 3 night city break in September. The location of the hotel was fabulous right on the Douro. The building is beautiful and the interior very stylish. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and service generally excellent. Breakfast was great quality with a lot of choice. Only a few minor grumbles on our stay. The coffee, tea, water etc was not replenished properly and I had to ring several times to ask for more. It would also have been nice to have some complimentary biscuits along with the tea and coffee. The hangers kept breaking so we didn’t have enough and they weren’t replaced. The Aperol spritz ordered from the bar was the worst I’ve ever had and so expensive! Apart from that our stay was most enjoyable. Porto is a beautiful place and we very much enjoyed our time there.

Pestana Vintage Porto
The Pestana Vintage Porto is ideally located with many of the historic sites within easy walking distance. The staff in the hotel are professional, friendly and very helpful providing a warm welcome and excellent service. Breakfast is delicious with a wide range of options and dinner in the Rib and Beef is an experience not to be missed.

The hotel is located in a historically protected area and you cannot bring a car. The hotel / Expedia must be very clear that having cars do not work with this hotel in summer time at least. There are two city parking lots nearby but they are full and cannot be used. We had to park 20 minutes away by car and get an Uber to go to the hotel and pay 15 Euro daily to park the car.

Lovely hotel in perfect location! Hotel is on the Ribeira Square. There is a bar attached to the hotel with tables outside overlooking the square and the river. Our room was on the fifth floor overlooking the river, restaurants. Just perfect. It’s definitely busy area but also relaxing while you’re sitting in one of many restaurants and cafes. The views are spectacular! Stuff working at the bar was lovely, always nice and welcoming! Sitting outside the hotel was one of the highlights of our stay. I gave five stars to the stuff working the front desk, breakfast etc. Although one of the girls from the front desk could be nicer and less rude. Her attitude wasn’t good. But it didn’t spoil our stay there. I can’t wait to go back!
