Perfect location in Porto

Perfect location, comfortable rooms, fabulous hosts and a great breakfast. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and also gave us nice extra perks (wine! food!) because they had to use a portable AC unit while their main AC is out.

Perfect place to stay in Porto!
07 Sept 2025
This hotel is incredible. I honestly don’t understand how it’s not rated 5 stars across the board. The location is perfect, right on the river, and it’s easy to get around Porto from here.We’re really picky with hotels since we travel a lot, and this one checked all the boxes. Our river-view room was quiet, the bed was super comfortable, and the view was gorgeous. Breakfast was great too.When we visited (early September), they were fixing the main AC units in the rooms, but they had a portable unit in our room and it worked totally fine. No complaints there.What really stood out was the service. Bruna welcomed us with such a warm smile and was so helpful, it instantly made us feel relaxed after a long travel day.If you want a quiet, comfortable, and charming spot that’s not right in the middle of all the crowds, this is the place to stay. We will send everyone here. Olivia Singular Houses, Owner at 1872 River House, responded to this review Dear Taryn,Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us!

Great!

Loved the 1872 River House. It was the perfect location. We did not have a river view from our room, but our room was right off the entry hall where we could open the stained glass windows and look out at the river and the city. Our room was small, but comfortable. The staff was outstanding! They had had problems with the air conditioning, and had to put a portable unit (and rather unattractive, I might add) in our charming room. They went to great lengths to compensate with wine, cookies, welcoming drink, and a full breakfast. The breakfasts were great. Several nights I needed to ice my knee, and they gave me the ice and offered to call a doctor if needed. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Olivia Singular Houses, Owner at 1872 River House, responded to this review Dear Diane,Thank you for your wonderful review!We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed our location and found your room comfortable despite the temporary adjustments. Our team works hard to ensure every guest feels taken care of, and we're glad you appreciated the extra efforts to make your stay as pleasant as possible.We’d love to have another visit from you in the future!Our kindest regards,1872 River House Team
