    Incredible location right on the Douro River. Amazing views, walkable to so many "tourist" spots including the sunset view on the other side of the Dom Luis Bridge.

Company information

We believe that the more globalised and standardised the world becomes, the more people want to experience something authentic when they travel. Whether our guests are stopping off for a few hours or a few days, for work or for pleasure, we want to pass them the feeling and soul of a genuine Porto. We strive daily to make our guests feel welcomed, comfortable, locals, at home. Welcome to your Oporto Home Boutique Apartments - River Front - make yourself at Home.

Property information

Oporto Home Boutique Apartments - River Front are located in a very exclusive spot. The views from its windows and balconies seem taken from a postcard. The building is dated from the XVIII century and is classified by UNESCO as part of the World Heritage Site. It was completely remodeled on the outside and on the inside, maintaining historic elements and look but giving it the comfort of the 21st century. - It is possible to request a crib in the apartment, upon availability!

Neighbourhood information

Ribeira is the top neighbourhood of the historic city centre. Facing the river you have all the main touristic atractions walking distance. Cais da Ribeira as been elected several times one of the most beautiful streets in the world by CNN and Lonely Planet. Oporto Home is in Ribeira neighbourhood but not actually in the main square. So you can stay in the main neighbourhood but 50 or 80 meters away from the crowded touristic area, where you have more noise and less peacefulness. Oporto Home is in our opinion perfectly situated.
