Top hotels in Ribeira
The Editory House Ribeira Porto Hotel
"Very clean hotel. The welcome drink and pastry along with the parting gift were very nice touches. Receptionists were quite helpful. My only very minor complaint would be that check in was at 3 and I arrived at 2, but I had to wait until 3 to get into my room. Which is understandable considering ..."

Hotel Carris Porto Ribeira
"Hotel is great and the location prime. I loved the quiet of my room but felt a little odd where it was… ground floor, back around a corner with the patio opening to no where, some interior 4 wall square. It was certainly quiet and if that’s your thing you should ask for one of these rooms"
