The Porto River Infante enjoys a superb location near the river, making it easy to explore Porto's attractions. Guests appreciate the modern, clean rooms, sometimes even receiving a complimentary welcome gift. Some guests have noted a lack of storage space, but overall, the good breakfast-particularly the omelets, pancakes and eggs cooked to order-adds to the hotel's appeal and perceived value for money.

a tender river dream

river locationlocal winekind stafflimited space
the location was so near the river. i could almost feel its gentle flow from the window. they gave me a bottle of local wine when i arrived. it. the staff was so kind and genuine. it was like they wanted me to have a happy stay.
the room felt small. there wasn't much space to keep my clothes. i had to live out of my suitcase. it was a bit inconvenient for a longer stay.
