Nadia
It was a great stay - perfect location and great staff.
Max
Très bien
Hector
Location is less than 25 meters from the river and many restaurants options
Chrissoula
The property is well appointed, clean, convenient and stylish. The staff are friendly and helpful
Haafizah
Staff very welcoming. Great location. Hotel was very clean and rooms were a perfect size for two people. Breakfast was decent as i only stayed for the weekend. The restaurant recommended by a staff member was a great choice. Will definitely book again.
Darline
The hotel is very nice and in the center of everything, about a block away from the river. The room was spacious (3 adults) and the bathroom was modern and clean.
The staff were friendly and helpful. We missed breakfast but it is available from 7:30am-10:30am for 15€ per person.
Would definitely stay there again.

Nicole
Great location but I would recommend you pack some ear plugs. Can be quite noisy at night, especially the loud birds. Otherwise had a lovely stay. Would stay again.
Gabriel
I had a fantastic stay here. The location is right on the riviera and is incredibly useful to get to some of the best areas in Porto if you want to see the river and the cathedral, or get to Jardim do Morro for sunset (and you really should!).
The hotel was incredibly clean and comfortable, with absolutely 10/10 staff who went above and beyond to make sure I had a pleasant stay (shout outs to Mara, Julia and Tarik for all your help). Breakfast was a great selection and they even packed me a breakfast to take away one day as I had to leave extra early for a tour.
I only had a few small issues with the place (and please consider that this is minor): my room was on the first floor, which considering I booked a Superia Room, I would have preferred to be higher up from the street noise. House keeping insisted on changing my sheets every night - which feels unnecessary and bad for the environment (I’d be happy for them to just tidy up and clean without needing to change my sheets until I left). Also there was no bath robes as advertised.
But as I say these really tiny critical… overall I had an absolutely fantastic stay and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Porto. I’d certainly come again.

Jennifer
Small quaint boutique hotel tucked away in a more touristy area. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very nice with fresh fruit, freshly made eggs your style. Room was well appointed and clean. We were on the fourth floor with cool skylights in bathroom and bedroom. Overall a lovely stay and would highly recommend. Location was convenient and within walking distance of many city sites and places to eat.
punam
Only stayed one night- a little noisy facing the street as music from restaurants. Too. Was very spacious clean and good coffee/ water etc
Gregory
Great small boutique hotel , excellent location , only fews steps to the river , spacious nice room , well maintained property . Frond desk very helpful . Tarirk , one of the receptionist very nice cheerful and polite .
Lisa
Beautiful boutique hotel tucked away, 2 minutes walk from the river. Front desk staff were amazing, professional and friendly - always willing to answer questions and offer advice to make our trip more special. Breakfast was fabulous and quiet. Great selection of both continental and hot foods and the fresh omelettes were so tasty!! A lovely way to start the day!
Location perfect for exploring the entire city. Also close (less than 5 minutes walk) to a small supermarket for bottled water.
Second floor room was quiet, large, comfortable and super clean with great amenities. We received a beautiful personalized note and small gift in acknowledgment of our 20th wedding anniversary.
Thank you to the team at Descobertas, we are grateful we chose such a fabulous hotel!!

Kelly
Very well situated hotel, good restaurant near by. Staff friendly and helpful if you have questions. Lovely selection for breakfast, could do with a jug of cold milk though for cereal instead ofveach morning having to ask for it.
One young female member of reception gets a very confused though as when giving room number items requested got delivered to another room even though checked room no. 4 times and we never received the request and transfer for going to airport was booked at incorrect time by same member of reception, turned up way too early for us and woke us up! Was re arrange for correct time though later that day.
I would go back to this hotel if I come back to Porto in the future

No soundproofing in rooms. The outside was very loud at night.
Marcella
Highly recommend this hotel. Excellent location. The staff is super friendly and professional, beds are comfortable. This was the second time we stayed here.
Paul
Excellent location, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.
Ronald
This is a very old building that has been completely rebuilt inside and provides practical, modern spaces throughout. We had a large, modern bathroom with separate shower and bathtub, bidet and ample room. The bedroom was also very adequate in size. We did not intend to eat breakfast here, but we checked out the buffet (€12/person) and ate there both days of our stay. Good selection and preparation. Staff members were very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. Great location just half a block off the popular riverfront.
Vince
Great location! Breakfast was very good. Can’t drive to hotel so must walk about 300 meters to get to hotel.

A/C system did not work at all
Deal breaker as far as I am concerned

Magdi
Staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations and booking Taxis for our excursion.
John
This hotel looks to be a converted old building. While charming, it has some flaws. The rooms on the fourth floor are very hot even with the air conditioner going full blast. The only solution is to open the skylight windows. If you do, you will be treated to a 24 hour serenade of dozens of seagulls screaming their heads off. Make sure to bring ear plugs!
Vanessa
I did not get the young lady that checked us in, but she was lovely. She gave us great recommendations and was so helpful. Breakfast was included in our stay and it was great. Room was clean and shower was spacious.
Munnawar
Great place and very accessible. Would go back any day. Special mention about the helpful staff.
Terry
Everything was very nice except the room ventilation was not OK. We stayed on the 4th floor and it was hot and no fresh air available.
Roxanne
Excellent location, by the river, vibrant area.
Tatiana
It was a great stay for me!
Everything clean, at all times. Great costumer service from the staff but specially Jose! He went above and beyond to accommodate my needs, guide me to explore the city safely, just an exceptional person.
Location was perfect for me, it was close to all the good places in Porto.
I recommend this hotel !

Small, clean room. Large shower. Large wardrobe. Great staff; helpful & spoke English. Breakfast was very good but not excellent. Location was great but location on rough-terrain street inaccessible to Uber/Bolt (only taxis are allowed).
LYDIA
Staff is very friendly. I received a gift for my birthday.
James
The first room had a broken window that wouldn’t close and it’s loud outside. They moved us rooms to their credit which was essentially the same exact room which was fine. The absolute most annoying thing is the way they do the HVAC it was 25c/80f almost every single night. Miserable and the only way to get them to change it was to call down and they manually changed it and it only lasted a few hours.
The location is fine close to the river and felt safe but it was just mediocre otherwise.
Never ate the food here.
The rooms felt stale and dusty. It was very apparent when we got to our next hotel how much cleaner and just in general the air quality. We all thought we were getting sick but immediately felt better once we changed hotels.
I would not recommmend this place to anyone unless they were planning to party the entire time and not be in the room much at all.

Great location near the river
Rosemary
They were nice and helpful.
Rachael
We booked a family room, it was great- spacious, clean and everything we needed for our 3 night stay near the river. The location is great- just off the main straight of the river and perfect for exploring Porto. The staff were very friendly, we had a welcome glass of port on arrival and they were always on hand if we needed anything!
Maria
It was great staying here. We stayed at a triple room and it was very spacious. Breakfast was great and the location could not be better.
Junda
Didn’t get breakfast
joel
Clean room, friendly staff and great location. Hotel is on a limited access road so only real Taxis are allowed to enter to the front of the hotel. If not you must walk your bags down a pretty inclined street to the property.
Jeanette
Execlent locaiton for visiting the main attractions in Porto. Small hotel which is an oasis from the busy Ribeira area. Rooms were clean and spacious for a city break. Staff very friendly and provided great suggestions for food and drink without prompting
Stephanie
The location was perfect! The staff was friendly and helpful, and the included breakfast was delicious!
Kim Dionne
Lovely quirky boutique hotel right by the River Doura and in the middle of all of the restaurants and liveliness that area holds. Good continental breakfast included. Short walk via the lower bridge to visit Gaia and the wine cellars on the opposite side of the river. Perfect spot for our 5 day trip. Only drawback was lack of view from our room and some noise from the hotel and restaurants below.
Shilpa
Absolutely amazing property - fantastic location and great amenities. Front desk not as hospitable or welcoming but other than than 5 stars!
Lisa
Really like this hotel and the staff are great. Room is lovely. Only issue is driving during the busy summer season in Porto is brutal and finding parking was challenging. If you are without a car, this place is perfect, on a walking street by all attractions and tons of restaurants. But hotel is fantastic
Niroshan
Absolutely loved our stay! The place was spotless and exactly as described. The hosts were fantastic communicators—super responsive and helpful throughout. Would definitely book again!
Eva
The staff were wonderful and very helpful and even went the extra mile when I was having trouble purchasing train tickets.
Janice
José was the gentleman who we dealt with mostly during our 3 nights there over a week. He was polite and efficient and very friendly! He kindly gave us chocolates upon our departure.
The breakfast was beautiful.
We very highly recommend Descobertas Hotel. The location was top notch too!

Nan
Wonderful location, beautiful lobby and room, nice and large as well. Highly recommend!!!
Andrea
Excepcional place to stay. Close to everything in Porto and super clean and cute!
Brett
Centrally located boutique hotel in downtown Porto. Just a few meters from the Douro River and tourist restaurants.
Only downside is it is quite noisy in the evenings. Clean & modern. Highly recommended.

Property had an industrial boutique feel. Staff were lovely, room was very clean and comfortable. Beds were great! Quirky decor and excellent bathroom. Had a very early checkout so got a shock with cold shower. Rang reception and they switched on the hot water. Would have been good to have known to request this in advance. Breakfast was fresh & plentiful.
Sebnem

Unique entrance at area taxis cannot enter (but they can drop you at the top of the hill very near by). Breakfast was exceptional with all the choices. Room was quiet and clean. Beautiful tapestries and old shoes as decorations in our room. Nice corner cushioned nook to rest on. Two twin beds. Excellent place. Would return.
Marion
Room was fine; safety bars in the shower would be a nice addition. Location was excellent especially for Ribeira and Gaia. Breakfast was good.
All the staff were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. They loved their city and really wanted us to enjoy it. Restaurant recommendations were excellent. The receptionist who greeted us on arrival was particularly helpful and made us feel so welcome.

The hotel is great. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Location is ideal except it is noisy outside. If you are a light sleeper, make sure you enquire about a quieter room.
Arkadiy
Location is great
Keith
Short city break to Porto
This hotel was ideally situated right on the river in the centre of the city. It was clean, quiet, comfortable, spacious and reasonably priced. Definitely would book again.
lori
The staff member who greeted me was amazing and gave me a perfect Porto itinerary as well as friendly greetings daily! All staff was friendly but he made the stay memorable for me! Property is lovely and breakfast makes a nice plus. Can get loud at night … bring ear plugs if you sleep early
Sheryl
Great location to everything except no parking near
Evlampia
I like its location the best. The rooms are dark and need to be spruced up. The staff need training to be more aware of customer needs and to listen to their requests.
gail
geat location , nice size room , staff very friendly and helpful.it was just a little noisy in the morning could hear people in street in my room
Ana
Very hip and in a great location
Stephen
Great position. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast & excellent room
Larisa
Nice location. Great reception staff. Difficult access - we’re not able to get dropped off and had to walk 1.5 blocks with the luggage.
Ido
Location is great and rooms are decent, however we got a very loud room, on an alley and above a restaurant where there’s live music on weekends. Needless to say that we couldn’t sleep.
The staff said that there’s nothing they could do since the hotel is full.
In addition, over the 4 days we stayed there the WiFi was either not working or very slow. When we asked the staff about it, they said it was fine.

ROGER
Friendly hotel in centre of historic riverfront ar
Good location very close to the square on the riverfront of the old town. Short distance to walk to many of tourist sights. About 10 mins wall from Bentoa station and metro (down or up the hill depending on to or from hotel). Pleasant room with good facilities and comfortable bed. Breakfast had quite a range of offerings. Reception staff helpful. We were on second floor at back and could hear noise (with windows shut) as nearby restaurants shut up but by 22.30 it was usually quiet and stayed that way until after 08.00 when we were up. I am a light sleeper but got 4 nights of pretty good sleep without probs.
Gordon
The hotel was fabulous. The room , a superior double, was larger than expected. Decor refreshing, staff friendly and helpful in information.
Adelita
Wi-Fi could be better. TV remote not working. Don’t like using paper cups to use for brushing teeth.
Adelita
WiFi is always dropping off & TV remote control not working so couldn’t watch TV the entire stay. Should provide more than 2 paper cups in bathroom for brushing teeth because after 3 days the cups looses the shape.
Chris
Nice place with a great location. Breakfast is ok but could be better, the beds are a little old needs to be change. Overall is a great stay right in the heart of la Ribeira.
Lisa
Quiet, good location
John
Would come again.
The reception staff is wonderful.
Our only complaint is the bed was uncomfortable.
Close to the Duoro River! If you have difficulty walking there are steep roads to walk down.

Fernando

Diane
Such a pretty little hotel. Around 18 rooms. Great shower, pretty room, nice breakfast. Located a block from the waterfront. I would have liked one more pillow. And the wi-fi is not really good.
Would recommend.

Shirley
A very convenient location to all activities on the river. Lots of exciting dining experiences available.
Anthony
A gem
Excellent comfort and service. The location was also excellent in the heart of Ribeira. Although the hotel does not have a restaurant beyond a good breakfast there are plenty of restaurants within a 3 to 5 minute walk, Be warned, however, that the good ones need prior booking! Altogether an excellent stay.
Dora
The location was wonderful, the vibrant Ribeira area with so many restaurants along the river. The restaurant Postigo do Carvao, was recommended by the hotel, a couple of doors away from hotel, so glad we went. We had a delicious authentic Portuguese meal, service was wonderful too. A nice small boutique hotel, breakfast was lovely too.
Jennifer
It’s nice location and clean room. Breakfast was included. I’m not sure about what’s included for VIP access.
Angela
Excellent.. had it all!
Excellent boutique hotel, right in the heart of the action! Loved our room 403. Very spacious and cozy. Loved the bathroom and shower! 2nd night we heard seguels alot but it was not the fault of the hotels. Had breakfast included an had a great spread. It was not continental. We had an early flight and they provided a box lunch for us since we were not able to take advantage of the buffet breakfast. I would definerly stay here again.
Ali
Perfect location for the price. Staff was very helpful and kind. The only issue we had was that our room was on the first floor and on the back side of the building. The kitchen staff in the restaurants behind the hotel were very loud at night. Its not the hotels fault, but its a negatice that i doubt the hotel can do much about.
Mary Ann

Melissa
This hotel should provide a disclaimer or alert guests that the A/C will not be functional or find another alternative. Better maintenance should be in place so the guests will have a comfortable experience. We were placed on the top floor where the A/C was not working. This was in May, I cannot imagine if it was during the summer months. Due to the heat and lack of air circulation, the washroom smell leaked into the room - where the head of the bed is facing. There is a window you can open but due to large amount of birds and other animals, we did not want to take the gamble that they may enter the hotel room.
Pedro
Don’t recommend at all!
Location isn’t very convenient, noisy and staff is very poorly trained!
Ashley
Descobertas was a perfect hotel for our stay in Porto. It was so close to everything! The included breakfast was a great bonus and they kept everything very clean. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
Seila
I must say it is a wonderful hotel in a great location if you want to be in the middle of it all. Down side is there’s an incline to get in and out of it. Transportation vehicles cannot transit in front of it. Only in the early morning hours. But overall, I would definitely go back.
Michael
Location is fantastic. Right in the heart of Ribeira. Everything is walkable. With that said, wife had trouble sleeping because of how loud it was outside. Other than that, clean, safe, and convenient. We’re the type that spends no time in the room outside of showers and sleeping. This served that purpose— for me, anyway.
Maria Patricia
Great service.
The room was comfortable and spacious!
We travelled with a baby and they have everything prepared for her.

Sandra
First things first, this hotel is great! It is in a wonderful location, right by the river side. Lots of restaurants, etc. very close by. You can walk up into the city and be to lots of the historic sites within 15 minutes. Room is modern and clean. They do not offer bathrobes or slippers as every other hotel in this category did on our visit. Breakfast buffet is adequate, but with minimal offerings. Of the six hotels during our stay, this was the simplest breakfast.
HOWEVER, PARKING is a disaster. Usually hotels if they do not have on-site parking will have some type of arrangement with a local parking lot. This hotel does not. Which means we had to park two blocks away. We got onto the website of that parking, garage, and it calculated €27 a day to park, check out 3 days later, the rate was actually €60 a day. So we spent almost $200 just in parking. Very frustrating.
Also, in order to get to the hotel, you must walk down cobblestone street and into the block to get to the front door. So this also means when you check out and leave, you must pull your luggage and bags uphill on a cobblestone street.
The description of this hotel on Expedia needs to be much more clear – elderly people, or people with a lot of luggage would have a problem getting to the hotel. And it really needs to be explained that parking can be very expensive and that they do not have a contract with any local. if we had known this, we could've made other arrangements as far as a rental car.

Average..
Location is good for Ribeira.. but uphill walking for downtown.
Severe continuous big-fan noise all day coming from restaurants nearby which was disturbing my sleep : my room was back side of building.
Breakfast hall is quite small and foods are not very various or hot enough.

Very quiet hotel, just a stone’s throw away from the Iconic bridge (20seconds to the river.)
We loved the intimacy of the hotel, it’s calm vibe and attentive staff. Our room was very spacious, the beds very comfortable and the toiletries great. It was a perfect location for everything we wanted to do in Porto. Just perfect.
