It was an okay stay.

Bed was comfy and the room had a little kitchenette which had all the things needed to use it. Good shower pressure and air con was cooling well. Clean bedding and surfaces in most places. The view of the city and the bridge was great. Balcony was nice too.

However though there were couple of issues. The windows were not suitable to stop the noise from the street (I can imagine that is due to facade being listed but still, feels like more can be done to secure windows as the noise is heard all night). The noise was heard all night long.

During the check in when I paid for city tax, a strange additional charge was added to that which was bizarre (couple euros).

The room was a bit dated in some areas and needed a scrub.

Apart from that it was an okay stay.

The apartment was lovely and the beds comfy. The location of the apartment was within walking distance to everything in the historical district. Breakfast was delicious (wayyyyy too much food though... we felt wasteful not being able to eat all of it). The apartment was on the 5th floor with no lift so as it was a treacherous 92 stairs up, 92 stairs down. I would have liked to have known about that before arrival because my friend traveling with me was older.. outside of that, it was great.

I really enjoyed my stay at My Ribeira Guest House! I booked a 2 bedroom apt for my family (4 of us) and it was great; the apt was spacious and clean with good WiFi. The mini kitchen even had some plates and utensils for us to use. The location is prime, and breakfast was a fixed menu consisting of delicious foods like fresh orange juice, yogurt with fruit and granola, coffee, eggs, and pastries. The host was very communicative with me and kind. Some things to note, there’s no elevator just stairs to all apts and the shower stall was a tight fit. Overall, highly recommend this amazing find!

Very beautiful building with stone walls and history that’s been modernized enough to meet our needs. The mod design to the place was fun. Being right by a main road meant more nightlife and more traffic noise than expected. Motorcycles were loud.

The property itself is of a good standard inside and clean. However, it has two major defects:
1. It is located right at the exit to a traffic tunnel and is extremely noisy day and night.
2. The 'front-desk' is the counter of the cafè and is only open 9 till 5. Outside these hours, guests are on their own as staff do not respond to WhatsApp messages and only very slowly to emails.

Stay was great. Room was clean and as advertised. Bed comfortable. Above a very cute cafe downstairs. Great way to start your morning with a coffee, smoothie bowl, scrambled egg or simple croissant. Riberia is busy with tourists. Also by the river - so expect a lot of uphill walking to downtown Porto. No elevator - so need to be comfortable with stairs to get to your room. The street is loud. I was concerned the noise would carry through the night. It quiet down. I sleep with ear plugs. Had no issue. Would stay here again!

The room had a terrible smell coming from the drain in the bathroom. We went downstairs to talk to the host. They said they would fix it, but it was never fixed.

We had to deal with basically sewer smell in our unit the entire time we were there. Extremely disappointed. Otherwise, the location was perfect and the property wasn't bad.

We only stayed in the hotel for one night (Friday). The hotel itself was great, however we hardly slept due to the constant traffic passing by the hotel going into and out of the tunnel, with frequent horn blowing by cars and motorbikes with loud exhausts frequently passing through. Also at 06:15 there was a terrible noise which was possibly a street cleaner with a generator cleaning the pavements!

Absolutely loved it! We got there in the afternoon so we checked in at the cafe, the staff were so lovely! The lemon cake was delicious! We got in to our room and I was blown away, I loved the look of the stone walls and the huge windows with the shutters. We had a little kitchenette which was great for making some light meals and a nice fridge for storing snacks. It got a little loud in the evening on the streets, but once I fell asleep that was no problem! Will definitely be staying here again!

I stayed in the studio apartment. The room was spacious with a small kitchnette that included a stove, mini fridge, tea kettle. The shower while a little small, always had hot water, so that was a win for me. I had the breakfast option included in my stay and the breakfast included fresh orange juice, coffee, yogurt bowl, cheese, ham and baked goods. The guest house has a cute coffee shop on the main floor. For a couple of early days where I had an earlier start than breakfast service (which starts at 8:30am) the staff was kind to pack me some baked goods to go.
Location Pros:The guest house is located a block away from the river and very close to the Luis I bridge. So the location is great if you want to be near the water. I loved being able to walk by the river early morning and late evenings, so I found the location convenient.
Location Cons: the guest house is located right next to a tunnel, so you definitely will hear cars/bikes revving and honking (though the shutters do help muffle the noise) throughout the day and night. To walk towards the town center you will always be climbing uphill, so be prepared. If you want to stay near town center and not climb steep streets everyday (most out of city tours run from near city center), I'd recommend staying in Sao Bento area. Also, there is no elevator in the building, which I didn't mind as I only had a carry on and only had to climb one flight of stairs to my room.

Great Porto accommodation

I loved my stay here. The room was clean and cosy, with a cute little window seat. I don’t mind traffic noise so that didn’t bother me. Bathroom was a bit of a tight squeeze, but if that’s the worst I can say it’s a pretty good sign. Bed and linen were comfortable and yes there are stairs, but again if you know in advance you can plan accordingly. I found the staff to be super friendly and the surrounding area couldn’t be better for a Porto visit!

The hotel was very cute and well kept. It only has stairs, so keep that in mind that you'll have to carry your luggage up flights of stairs. The room had a little kitchenette with a stove and fridge. The bathroom wad clean with great water pressure. The shower is tiny, so if you are a larger sized person or have mobility issues this may not be the place for you. The hotel is right on a busy/noisy street below. Cars were honking and motorcycles revving late into the night. I had read previous reviews and was prepared with earplugs. But I can and did sleep through anything and had no need for the earplugs. The hotel is very centrally located and within walking distance to most everything. It is also easily accessible to public transportation. I was a solo female traveler. It felt very safe, even returning late at night. It is connected with the cafe next door. The staff could not have been nicer, more attentive, or helpful. They also paid attention to my daily breakfast requests, which was delicious and filling. Would absolutely stay there again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

My Ribieria Guest House is situated in the middle of a World Heritage neighborhood and is a very desirable place to stay. The building has been carefully and tastefully updated with all the modern conveniences except there is no elevator, so take note. The stairs were not a problem for us.

Great location, pleasant staff.

The guest house is very centrally located in the Ribeira area and the room was spacious, lean and the bed was comfortable. The price was a steal. The staff were very nice to deal with and breakfast was delicious. Excellent coffee. My room was on the third floor and there was no lift so got a bit of exercise in as well. I knew this was the case when I booked so was prepared for it. Because it is central and on a busy street, it is noisy but I felt the location more than made up for that.

Only downfall was the noise from the street but that’s hard to avoid when you are so close to “the action”

It’s situated right above the tunnel / road into Porto, so all the cars, motorbikes and traffic noise is right in your room as right below your window. So when you look out it’s like a mini motorway!

The windows would need to be double glazed?

Bathrooms could do with an update.

Fabulous position, lovely and comfortable room, super breakfast and no key access to property and room made life easy

Only problem had more to do with our ages and fitness level! We were on 4th floor so 72 steps each time (no lift) Tricky with suitcases.

Small kitchenette had no dish cloth or tea towel, also only one coffee mug + no coffee etc on arrival although we were given coffee, milk and sugar when we asked.

Very enjoyable stay right by the river

Great location, and walkable area. Cars/street noise can be loud, but dies down by 11pm. I recommend getting the breakfast option, it was delicious and worth it. Overall, great for the location and price.

Great hospitality. Wonderful breakfast. It was noisy from the motorbikes and the tunnel. It was graduation weekend so that could have been an issue. Otherwise nice place

Location is convenient but very noisy since the property locate on the main big street. Breakfast is good. Be aware of AC/heat are
climate control so it’s very inconvenient. The night before checked out water dripping have to wait until the morning since there wasn’t service available.

Good location and breakfast but no elevator

The location is very good and central. I am able to walk to all the tourist spots and feel safe.
The breakfast was great and I enjoyed it and looking forward to it every morning.
The room is spacious and clean.
There is no elevator so I have to carry my big luggage on the stairs to my room.
There is also no one clean my room throughout my 5 nights stay at the hotel.
These are the reasons I only give 4 stars.
I will stay here again when I visit Porto.
I will also recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room was spacious, equipped with a kitchen, utensils, and toiletries, which made it feel like a home away from home. The breakfast, which was included, was quite good, and the staff were very accommodating. The hotel itself is chic and beautiful, and it’s conveniently located near the bridge, a popular tourist spot. I also appreciated that the drop-off point was right in front of the hotel, so I didn’t have to walk far. My only complaint is that there’s no elevator, and my room was on the fourth floor. It was my mistake not to check about this before booking, but climbing up those stairs did leave me winded every time. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel for older guests.

Our room at My Ribeira Guest House was the perfect stay for a couple of days in Porto. It was very cozy, yet hip. The provided turntable was a very nice extra touch. We listened to Fado and old Disco while the light rain splattered outside. We had everything closeby at a walking distance; the river and bridge, the old town, shops and restaurants. The staff also pointed us in the direction of the neighborood of Aforada, where we ate incredible seafood in a small-town setting. Highly recommended.

Great value for the price!

Great experience! Very friendly host, wonderful cafe on the ground floor for breakfast (owned by same people), great location. It is right next to the tunnel, so while there is some road noise, the shutters close on the french doors and it blocks it out well. The view of the river and fortress across the way is very nice!! 10/10

Expectations

Great stay in a hostel (albergue) setting, reception personnel excellent. Choose private rooms it’s not expensive and you get privacy. Bus stop is 5 to 10 min walk from rooms. Things to consider taking waterproof shoes, light rain coat and an umbrella. Awesome place wouldn’t miss this trip.
Thanks to the staff!!!!!

Small character hotel in the heart of the historic

what a wonderful character hotel on the edge of the old time and a short stroll from the river. The staff were fabulous, with breakfast being served in the small cafe below. There are however tow down sides, all rooms are reached by stairs with no lift and we struggled to carry or cases to the third floor. There is quite a bit of road noise as the hotel is situated at the mouth of the road tunnel. This said we would definitely return, a little gem. Next door is a brilliant wine bare (The Wine Box’ serving excellent wine and food, they also offer tasting sessions, a must for your visit. Hotel arranged an airport transfer for 30 euros 👍

Lovely stay at Porto

Staff is super sweet and will help with any inquiry you have.
The Studio Room, is pretty and super functional with a small kitchen. Property is clean and the bed is comfy.
Downstairs on the first floor you have a lovely coffyshop/bar where you can have you breakfast, if you do wish to have it included in your reservation.
The location is perfect, just a street away from the riverside.

My Ribeira Guest House was perfectly positioned to walk around the old part of Porto, and was very close to the Ponte Luis I bridge that takes you to the port tasting rooms and the other side of the Douro River. Breakfast every morning was great, the room was comfortable, spacious and tidy (I loved the interior decor, and noticed the locally made wool blanket and pillows from Burel!). A great stay in a great city!

Many surprises, none of them good.

The room was lovely and clean. The bathroom is super tiny, one has to close the entry door before the dhowet door can be opened. Also. There was not a word about the steep stsirs to a 3rd floor unit. I am 74, husband is 77. I would have never booked this if I had advance knowledge. Luckily we are git and agile. The checkin is run out of the coffee shop next foor which closes at 5. We finally found it at 6:30. Anna waited for us, but she was on her way out the door!

We only stayed for one night here during our Portugal journey, but loved our balcony and clean, comfortable room and bed. Staff were very helpful, kind and friendly, especially for allowing us to check in several hours early!
Only complaint is that Hotels.com advertised an option for \"breakfast buffet\", which we purchased, but the hotel did not have a buffet, only limited items for purchase in their downstairs coffee shop. Just wanted to make people aware who are thinking of adding the breakfast option that it's apparently not as advertised.

Lovely owner who runs the bar downstairs where we had breakfast to start each day of our stay. Wonderful informative staff happy to lend guidebooks etc. Absolutely on the doorstep of sites to see.
It is possible to park in a pay for nearby carpark on the river front for up to 72 hours.
Be aware there are lots of steps up to the room and as it is near the tunnel the road is relatively busy. Neither of these were an issue for us but might be for some.
Superb stay and we would like to thank My Ribeira Guesthouse for everything including some Portuguese language lessons and the chance to listen to some old favourite albums on the record player in our room x

Check in was easy and the staff was friendly. Unfortunately the communication after check in was lacking due to Porto’s annual São João festival. We couldn’t get into the building late at night and tried calling and texting the emergency WhatsApp line but no one responded to help us. Others were stuck outside too. There was no apology or concern the following day to make sure we were ok. We didn’t sleep well that night due to music blasting on the streets outside (not the hotels fault).

Overall this hotel would probably be nice to stay at any other time. The rooms were nice but the record player didn’t work and there was no coffee or kitchen utensils offered despite having a kitchenette.

Cute hotel, very loud traffic outside

The hotel room was clean, cute, and exactly the right size for a solo traveler. I loved there was a kitchenette. Communication with the host was efficient and they were very accommodating.
The biggest negative was that the hotel is right next to a tunnel and the traffic comes through at all hours of the night and the cars revving their engines are extremely loud. Despite everything else being wonderful, I had a very hard time sleeping each night and would not recommend to anyone who is sensitive to noise while sleeping.

One of the nicest rooms I have stayed in. Great character with modern and rustic design, and always a bonus having a kitchenette with fridge. The location means you are a stones throw from the river and its bustling dining and tourist culture.
The only negative is being located on a main road, however there is air con and window shutters to help manage the noise especially at night. The cafe is very good for breakfast also. Highly recommended.
