The Most Magnificent View from Your Own Balcony: Hotels in Porto Overlooking the River

Go out to your private balcony.
Open a bottle of local wine.
Unwind with magnificent river views.

When you think about Porto, the first thing you see in your mind is the amazing views of the river. If you want to live your Porto vacation to the fullest, one of the best things to do is to find a hotel with this view. A private Balcony? Even better.

To help you plan the trip, we've compiled this list of hotels.

All the hotels on the list:

  • Are good hotels with a high ranking on travel websites
  • Offer rooms with a private balcony overlooking the river

Please note two important things:

  • If we say that a hotel is offering rooms with a balcony, it does not mean that all the rooms have balconies. Please check out the room you want to book and verify if it has a balcony.
  • The balconies on this list vary in size. There are some huge terraces, but also small French balconies. Again, check it out before making a booking.
