Porto Adventure Vacations

The hotel is very nice and one that I would easily recommend. The drawbacks are the property's isolation and limited dining options, although I would definitely recommend the hotel's restaurant.

Booked 2 nights following another wonderful Viking trip ( on the Douro River ). Had done lots of research as we wanted to be in the Ribeira section on the river. Location was PERFECT! could walk to dozens of cafes/ restaurants/ wine bars etc and enjoy outdoors on perfect weather. Upon arrival a bit turned off by exterior which was in need of some cleaning up/weeding and, alas, next to a McDonald's ( in a lovely old building but surrounded by trash we had to pass each time we went in and out.. ugh). Staff small and va/ried levels of genuine hospitality...our room was wonderful with windows on the river. After a bit of juggling we're able to keep that room for both nights vs move ( our fault, 2 separate booking for 1 nite each but they were able to rearrange- appreciated!) Did included breakfast one morning..lovely, very generous spread of typical European fare with coffee & expresso machine availabilie early. Only 8 rooms, small but cozy breakfast room also facing river with seating for maybe 8 people.Porto is a very fun/ safe feeling place with plenty to do...plan at least 2 nights!

Perfect location! Great ambiance! Loved the room with a balcony view right over the riverfront.

This is a hidden gem! I was visiting from the United States and had an amazing time here. The staff, room, and food here were all amazing. It’s a boutique hotel and feels like family every day. Definitely a fan!

Nice room, good breakfast, friendly and helpful staff.

Clean rooms and friendly staff. Breakfast is too expensive considering you can get local breakfast for much cheaper (ex. $3.99

The Hotel Solverde is the best hotel with the best staff. What more can I say. Alan Blyth
