There is no other place to stay in Oporto. Right by the Cais da Ribeira, opposite the river cruise embarking point and gorgeous vies of the Douro. The rooms are comfy and well furnished and service was impeccable. Breakfast had an ample selection of food and fresh juices, coffee etc. If it is warm, do not miss the terrace outside... More

The hotel is right on the river in an historic part of old Porto with wonderful views of the river, the bridge and to all the port houses in Gaia Porto across the river. Fortunately, I was upgraded to a "superior room" when I arrived, as I had mistakenly booked a room with a city view which wouldn't have had... More

We stayed 3 nights at Pestana Porto Hotel and it was the best! It is right on the Doura River so there was lots to see right from our balcony. The city is beautiful and the hotel is within walking distance to everywhere. The service was beyond excellent. We were driving and couldn't quite figure out how to get to... More

My wife and I have just returned from a 3 night New Years Break at the Pestana Porto Hotel. We travelled with Tall Traveller, see previous review. Location was fantastic with great views of the river, the bridges and the Port Houses on the opposite bank. We were a little disappointed with the hotel and would rate it a 3.5... More

Just back from a New Years beak in Porto where we stayed at the Pestana Hotel. The location was great; right on the waterfront, other aspects were not so good however. Our room was very small and unfortunately we did not have a view of the river either. The TV reception was poor and kept cutting out; breakfast was average,... More

This was our 3rd stop during our honeymoon. Pristine hotel, we had a beautiful room facing the Duoro, the service was UNBEATABLE. The location is central, we love to walk and explore so we liked the hustle and bustle. The one BIG bummer was that they didn't have a proper blow dryer! We stayed at other Pestana's and they all...

The location is really what you pay for here.It`s perfect and if were to recommend an hotel for a 2 night stay,this would be it.It really can`t be beaten.Right on the river in the absolute heart of the tourist area and easy walking distance to all the main sights and for the open top bus tour. It`s expensive of course... More

Prepaid one night 3 months prior directly with the hotel online. Surprise email on our date of flight from Canada to Porto. Sorry we are overbooked, we are sending you to a hotel on the outskirts. Problem is that we booked Pestana Porto so we could walk across the bridge the next day to our River Cruise boat "The Duoro... More
