Every part of our stay was brilliant. The staff couldn't do more for us and very friendly. We had booked a room with a private pool and it was fantastic, a completely relaxing little haven. We ate a few times in the evening at the restaurant which is a set daily menu of 3 courses and we also did the on-site wine tasting which I would highly recommend. The other thing we did was order the picnic one evening which was lovely, all freshly prepared and delivered in picnic baskets to our room. Perfect romantic and intimate couples holiday!

This was an amazing Quinta, the food is amazing, the staff is not only courteous but friendly. The owner is involved in your arrival which gives it a nice touch. We got a room facing the river with a private pool, just perfect. The room is very comfortable, superb amenities, super clean, exquisitely decorated. The music in the room was sublime. The area is breathtaking and you can walk around the wineyards. All in all I can only say wonderful things about this boutique paradise. I wish I has stayed longer than 2 nights. A haven of relaxation. The spanish girl from Cordoba who served us in the restaurant was a gem and her husband at reception also. Would love to go back. We visited other popular restaurants in the area but there is no need , because the hotel food was better in all senses.

I cannot recommend Quinta De S. Bernardo enough. The entire property is absolutely magical. The view from anywhere on the property of the Douro River is breathtaking. We stayed in the Private pool villa and it was very spacious with electric curtains you could raise in the morning with a remote to a perfect view of the mountains and river while enjoying an early morning in bed. The staff was also incredible. All of them were very personable and so accommodating. The breakfast buffet was delicious. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly. The dinners were also delicious. We never ate lunch but I am sure it is just as wonderful.

The hotel is in a very nice location, though further away from the main "towns" of the region. All the common areas are excellent, the heated pool a real treat, AMAZING breakfast and something worth mentioning, they offer many indoor activities like board games and a pool table (important when the weather is not the best like in our case). Everyone is extremely polite and helpful! We loved our stay there!

Superb quinta that works as a stylish boutique hotel and a wine estate. Smallish rooms and few have terraces. Pool area is glorious and the service level is excellent. We took out the ebikes, went to Regua by train and did the wine tour and tasting with Pedro. All meals were delicious. Just be aware that trains that stop here are very infrequent, walks will be hot and steep. You need to either have a car or be able to chill and just enjoy relaxing at the hotel. There is not an extensive list of things to do and to get a boat trip you need to be able to access one of the larger towns. It was great for our needs and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Manuel and his family were amazing: friendly, hospitable; and helpful!! Felt like we were visiting long lost family. The property was extremely nice, rooms were great (clean, comfortable, well appointed), and the scenery was awesome. Little cool outside to enjoy the pool...but we would have!!

The Owner took great care of us. The pool was amazing. The morning breakfast was so good, and plenty fault there was lots of choices. I have also added a photo further down.

Deep pool at about 3 meter. Kind personel.

Everything was excellent from the location to the facilities the property and we got the bonus of the staff which really made us feel like we were part of the family and this is a big and not common thing as a Mexican. I am just looking forward for another chance to stay there.

Everything is great here! especially the owners of this house, they are kind people. if you choose a place in this region, don’t even hesitate, this is the best place. beauty, cleanliness, delicious breakfast, silence, close to the city and the river. this place deserves a million hearts!

Really nice house with plenty of space and a lovely large pool. Great view from the pool and terrace. Very helpful host.

This is a fantastic place to stay for groups. We were comfortable with 5 people. It is large, clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. Just a short drive (or walk) to the heart of Peso da Regua. It was too early for the pool but it would be amazing in the hot weather. Very close to some excellent Quintas. The property managers were very helpful and accommodating. The unit has four stories and four flights of stairs from top to bottom, which is important to know in case of guests with mobility issues. We would definitely return.

Amazing, clean and comfortable accommodations. Monica was lovely and so helpful. The walk into town was easy. Having a dip in the pool after a long day of seeing the Douro was so rewarding.

Everything was superb but the pool was definitely the highlight!

Really nice location overlooking the river and great pool. We had a small issue with the rooms but this was sorted immediately and we were very grateful. Before the holiday there was contact to explain everything and gives ideas for activities and restaurants. Lovely house.

Very function small house, it worked perfectly for our small group, for one night. There was a lot of space, the rooms were very comfortable. They allowed us stay until 2pm for a late checkout which was MUCH appreciated! Thank you!

All perfect, the owner was super nice and helpful. The house had everything for cooking. The bedroom super comfortable and had towel. The view and quietness was amazing!

Very spacious, with a lot of rooms and outdoor space. A quiet location surrounded by nature and a short drive away from services.

I’ve traveled in Europe extensively over the past decade & stayed in many rental units, but this one may be the nicest of them all. Recently renovated and smartly designed to maximize space, the guest experience is superb. There are 5 large bedrooms, 3 of which have beautiful en suite full baths. There is a 4th full bath and then a 5th half bath for the other 2 bedrooms to share. So 4 showers and 5 toilets in total ensure everyone has privacy. Then there is a large shared living area with a dining room and a fully equipped kitchen so guests can spend time together in a shared space. There is also a very nice sized yard with a pool. The fridge was well stocked with way more food than we needed, and the private, gated parking is also a huge bonus. There is air conditioning in every room and everything in the city is a short walk away. Checking in and out was simple, and communication was fantastic. This is a great central spot to explore the Douro Valley, and I highly recommend it.

Beautiful house, good quality rooms..very comfy beds. Secure parking for our 5 motorbikes. Close to everything. Cracking roads to and from the town. 5 of us spent 2 nights there on our tour of portugal.

A beautiful well presented property with everything you need for a 3 night stay.

It’s a great location. Not very far from the city center (5min), but also close to the road on our way to Oviedo. The rooms are super clean and nice. They just renovated the entire hotel. It’s a family owned hotel. The staff was great, very nice and helpful. The bonus was the restaurant attached to the hotel. Best bacalhau (cod fish) that I ever had (and I had lot growing up in Brazil). The owner loves wines and let us tried different ones. Even arranged for us to visit a small exclusive winery. We will definitely come back to explore the region more.

We have stayed here before. Everything was excellent, from the parking available, the staff friendly and helpful - always cheerful, the bedroom, the cleaning, the breakfast and we had two evening meals, which were superb. The house special (cod) was lovely. The walk down into Chaves might be longer than people might want, but we walked down, spent the days in Chaves and got a taxi back. We will definitely be back.

We liked everything about our night here. The staff were great, really helpful, very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The meal in the evening was excellent and good value. The breakfast was excellent too and it was included in the price. The hotel is a little out of Chaves, but the hotel can get you a taxi, for not a lot. We will be back definitely.

We have stayed here before and we enjoyed it. We arrived early this time but it wasn't a problem. Everyone is so helpful, making sure you have everything you need. You are encouraged to try different foods and they are rightly proud of their kitchen. We didn't go into the bar this time, we just stayed at our table.

Modern , comfortable and clean. Friendly and very helpful staff who really took the time to do all they could to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Excellent food and service in the adjoining restaurant where we enjoyed our evening meal and breakfast. Secure parking. Would stay here again .

The hotel is perfectly located on one of the main streets of Peso Da Regua. The hotel is located in a historic building that has been restored very expertly. Many historic wall and ceiling surfaces have been left uncovered and exposed, forming a highly decorative interior element. The hotel had a sales point where unique local handicraft souvenirs were sold. Of course, the famous wines of the Douro region were also on sale. The hotel room was bigger than expected, clean and furnished with everything you need. The personal greeting card in the room made you feel welcome. The hotel wifi worked flawlessly. The hotel staff was extremely kind and friendly. The latte served at night in the lobby bar was one of the best we've ever had. Breakfast turned out to be the biggest and most pleasant surprise. Personal greeting cards awaited us at the breakfast table. The breakfast buffet had such a large selection that you don't often see even in 5-star hotels. Everything offered was fresh, tasty and locally sourced. Peso Da Regua may not be much of a tourist destination, but its location between the Douro wine region and Porto is very suitable for a stopover. Be sure to book a stay at the Original Douro Hotel, it's worth it!

This hotel has an excellent location in the city centre, just by the river and within walking distance of numerous restaurants and shops. The building itself is beautifully renovated, blending modern comforts with historic charm. Everything was spotlessly clean, and our room was very comfortable. We stayed on the third floor, so we weren’t disturbed by any train noise, which could be an issue for lower-floor rooms closer to the tracks. The air conditioning was a great feature, especially since the room tended to get quite warm. Breakfast was generally good, with a nice selection of fresh and homemade items. The pumpkin bread and homemade cakes were absolutely delicious! However, we felt that there could be a bit more variety—especially more scrambled eggs, bacon, and white toast bread. These additions would make the breakfast even better. Overall, this is a fantastic hotel in a prime location, with clean and comfortable rooms and a lovely atmosphere. A slightly expanded breakfast selection would make the experience even better, but we would definitely stay here again! Ps. The elevator is slow but just take the stairs if you can. It's much more healthy and sustainable.

A short stay in the area at this lovely small hotel which exceeded all expectations. It is in a beautifully renovated very old building on the main street . Other reviews have moaned about a lack of views and the slow lift ..they miss the point- it is a city style hotel so some street noise is to be expected. The town is quiet after 10pm so no problem. Decor...very stylish and understated. Comfortable but without eg minibar and room safe. The staff are so helpful and nice. The breakfast is excellent..not extensive eg no bacon and eggs, but top top quality cheeses jams breads and homemade cakes...sprinkle seeds and dried berries to add to your cereal or yogurt pot. Great leaf tea selection to fill your infuser etc. Oh...pastel de nata if course. Would return in a heartbeat if in the area again..TT recommends 100%...the place is a credit to the staff and owners.

Just stayed here for two nights at the end of a fabulous week-long cycling tour of the Douro and what a nice way to conclude our visit! The hotel has been restored and , obviously, lovingly attended to in details both architectural and aesthetic. Our room was sweet, clean, quiet and comfortable. Updated bathroom, the shower especially functional and welcome after a long hot day! The staff are super friendly and efficient and ready to help with anything we needed. The location is convenient , close to the river, railway and some great restaurants! I was a tiny bit concerned about being close to the rail station but not to worry! The little local trains are few and far between and rather charming. A non event. The beds and bedding were comfortable and everywhere the hotel is clean and lovely. Breakfast was nice, especially loved the yogurt pots. 😉 Thank you for a wonderful stay in Regua!

We truly appreciated the magic of the amazing restoration job of this historic hotel! Such friendly and welcoming staff and quiet location but walkable to everywhere. If you are celiac, give them notice and they will prepare a GF breakfast option. We absolutely LOVED our stay! *Only thing to note about the hotel that could be an issue for some is the train the runs late into the night and early in the morning right out the back - but the soundproofing is so well done / the old walls so thick we only heard a deep vibration/rumbling in our room that we generally slept through (though I wear earplugs) - may be a different story if your room faces the train tracks so be sure to request a street facing room if you are an light sleeper. Thanks again Original Douro!!

Real luxary from arriving till departure: beautiful room with really big bathroom. Classy furniture, kingsize. bed, tv with everthing you want (incl10 sportchannels). Spa with big gym, big inner pool, huge outer pool, tropical hot outer pool, sauna, Turkish bath etc. Dining on Saturday with live pianist, incredible food (michelin star). Breakfast with everything you can imagine; incl. many home made or regional specialities; all juices natural hotel made without added sugars. Outside incredible 18 holesgolf course and huge gardens with trees and plants from different parts of the world. Last but not least: very helpful and genuinly friendly staff. My wife and i will sure be back to this paradise of luxury, beauty and peace in the north of Portugal.

Fantastic stay in a beautiful 5* hotel. Staff extremely friendly, room was spacious and tastefully furnished. Victorian style bathroom with tub and beautiful tiling. Breakfast was plentiful with lots of choice. Food in the restaurant was delicious and the hotel bar prepare winning cocktails which you can enjoy on the terrace. Great indoor and outdoor pool, spa and treatments on offer and glorious grounds to explore. Only negatives - indoor pool was slightly cooler than desired but we had it all to ourselves and you quickly warm up. Local town is extremely quiet so you definitely need a car to access other nearby towns if you want to explore.

Vidago Palace Hotel has exceeded all my expectations - everything was perfect and I am delighted for having experienced it! The building is absolutely stunning and that was the reason we visited. But that will no longer be the only reason why we'll return - and we will return! From the housekeeping, to the restaurant(s), bar, pool(s), spa, valet or front-desk staff, everyone offers you an exceptional service. They're all very attentive and kind. The grounds of the hotel are neatly kept, with attention to every detail. The "Salāo Nobre" restaurant, the breakfast room, the entrance staircase, the overall décor, the little lake and island, and the excellency in service, transport you to what we can only imagine to what must have been to live in a luxurious place during the Belle Époque.

I loved my stay at the Vidago Palace Hotel. Although we only spent one night, my wife and I enjoyed the pool and park grounds. The next morning was also amazing. Mario helped us during our breakfast and he was phenomenal. Wish we had stayed longer. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for ultimate luxury treatment and great staff. Looking forward to my next stay.

This Grand Hotel has all that the weary traveller desires. Whether you want to take in the early 1900s style of the palace, relax by the pool, enjoy premium spa service, dine in luxury, play 18 holes of golf or just soak up the quiet atmosphere. You will enjoy the Vidago Palace. Fine at reasonable prices!

This hotel is exceptional. The location is ideal, situated in the heart of old town so you can access anything by foot. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable, and the price was very reasonable and included breakfast and free parking. Wonderful stay. Cannot wait to visit again!

Beautifully located next to the castle in the centre of Chaves. Close to supermarkets, aswell as bars and restaurant. The hotel is modern, fresh and the staff are friendly and will go the extra mile to satisfy your needs. Will choose Castelo next time I go back to Chaves.

The position of the hotel is superb and the hotel itself is extremely Castel and luxurious and all the staff make your stay memorable. It truly is a magnificent holiday experience and we can’t wait to return. Thank you from us. Definitely recommend!

From the lobby to our bathroom and also the spa area, all the details in onyx marble are stunning. Very quiet and tasteful. Breakfast was delicious, with a wide assortment of fruit and local pastries. We could walk everywhere.

The room was quite spacious, with a beautiful view. The indoor pool is a big plus, as is the gym. The outdoor pool is very large. The staff were very helpful, especially at dinner time in the hotel restaurant.

Beautiful place if you are traveling in north Portugal and the huge plus is the 3 minutes walk from the hotel to the adventure park. Hotel is lovely with an amazing outdoor pool, great service, option for a chef dinner that we enjoyed. we took the suite room and the only issue with that is the bed, which was too soft for us and not really comfortable. Area is so green and great for hiking.

The rooms, the hotel itself and both the indoor and outdoor swinmming pools were all good.

This has got to be the most beautiful hotel we have yet to stay at. So clean and quiet with the most gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains. The restaurant serves healthy and top notch gourmet food. The breakfast is delicious with a wide assortment of things. We will be back to stay here the next time we visit Portugal!

Great location, very nice people and service, spacious bedroom with an amazing view to the pine trees and mountains and very good breakfast. Loved the activities nearby, the activity park relly next to the hotel and the river beaches very near. An experience to repeat.

The hotel is set in Quinta Dona Adelaide which is a beautiful place, lots of green areas, two swimming pools and lots of space outside the hotel. I loved the fact we could grab one of the hotel’s bikes for a ride around Valpacos. The hotel itself is really nice, it’s clean and modern, and has amazing spa facilities. Good breakfast selection, you can even get a proper ‘bica’ which is a plus. The staff is super friendly, helpful and very polite.

Excellent apartment, modern and very clean. Pool and outdoor area looked great, but we only stayed one night and didn’t have time to fully utilize the facilities.

Olive Nature Hotel & Spa is a peaceful and charming retreat. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and modern, but what truly makes this place special is its staff. They are highly professional, yet incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming – you instantly feel like you’ve known them for years. The cherry on top is Oliver, the gentle giant of a dog who lives on the property and never fails to brighten a guest’s day. We would wholeheartedly recommend staying at Olive Nature Hotel & Spa. If we ever visit northern Portugal again, we will definitely return!

This is an amazing property , our apartment was excellent, clean , beautiful! All the staff super nice, restaurant with excellent local ingredients and of course the farm ❤️!!! We didn’t want to leave…I actually booked the apartment by a mistake , but for sure it was the best mistake I made on our month long stay in Portugal and Spain !

The location is perfect to recharge yourself. Everything looks clean and you feel comfortable. The restaurant is just amazing, the staff is really attentive and the food great. Loved their wine. The massages of the spa are amazing and make you feel really good. It’s a place to come back!

Very nice, stylish hotel in centre of Chaves. Staff very helpful and room was modern and very clean. Brilliant shower! No parking facilities but could park motorcycle right at front door.

The location was excellent in the centre and by the river. The room was a very good size and comfortable. The breakfast was also very good.

I loved that the room was roomy and had a desk for me to just work briefly on my computer each day. The Bathroom in our room had a shower which was perfect. Coffee was excellent and breakfast was very good. Hotel is located walking distance to the town center (so many restaurants and shops to choose from).

Amazing place. The room was big and so confortable. Really clean. I loved this place. The breakfast was also incredible.

It’s a bit of a hike from the town - although a short cab journey - but I wouldn’t stay anywhere else if I visited again. I had planned to stay three nights at Forte de Sao Francisco, but was so disappointed with it, I ended up switching here. And it was a gamble that paid off. Gorgeous, huge room - modern and clean, with a properly stocked minibar, spectacular bathroom, spacious balcony and beautiful views. I had a room at the back overlooking the mountains, which was wonderful in daylight but a bit lost in the dark. If you want an interesting nighttime vista, probably best to stay in a room at the front with views of the city in the distance – at least you’d get some twinkling lights. Two fabulous pools, good breakfast and just the loveliest staff. And set in expansive, picturesque grounds that could surely be turned into a golf course – much needed in these parts and bound to attract more guests. Overall, a great escape!

Great location as we were touring. Romantic room was so lovely with a heart on the bed & a bottle of cava & sweet biscuits. View was amazing from the room. Breakfast was buffet style with a good range of choices. Swimming pool was lovely & refreshingly cool.

The facilities were great, room always clean and cool, for smokers nice that you can smoke on the balcony, pool fantastic, although we didn't use the spa it looked great!

Excellent location, great facilities, food & beverage products offered at very reasonable prices, residents outside swimming pool was fantastic. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Pool, breakfast, room, bed amazing. The casino is a good way to spend some time and have some fun

This is simple. Great hotel. Bedroom very good for us. Have been to this hotel many times. Pool is great when weather is good. View from pool is amazing. Breakfast was first class. Evening meal was first class. The hotel is full of character and history. We will be back.

Good location in town centre, clean comfortable room, great pool area with pool bar. Good restaurant.

Location is great. Food in restaurant is super. And breakfast was as good as it gets in Spain. Pool and surroundings are top notch. Big clean pool, lots of sunbeds and chairs with a bar.

Breakfast was great: for a European 4 Stars Hotel, it has the right range of diversity and everything was in good supply. The swimming pool and its suroundings without telling the view from the top of the Fortress Wall leave you speechless. Wow! Finally, the staff had been amazing. fulfilling all needs, being friendly at all times, saying Hi systematically when your by pass them - even not having specific dialogue with them - and always smilling. I really valued it.

I specially enjoyed the location, the beautiful surrounding gardens , the outside swimming- pools(two for adults and one for children) the spa with two interior pools and jacuzzi. The room was spacious and the staff very friendly. Breakfast was delicious. Everything was excellent.

The location is perfect, surrounded by hills and with a view to the river. It offers the perfect nature getaway with comfort. The spa has two swimming pools, one adults only. The room was spotless and the cleaning team, restaurant staff and receptionists were exceptional. The breakfast was also very good from fresh fruits and bread, to good Portuguese cheese, and some homemade cakes and cookies. Also English breakfast available. The exterior playground was maintained and had a sand box. My only suggestion would be a room for children to play.

The location... the pictures don't even do it justice, it's outstanding. The pools were glorious. And the staff, muito obrigada to each and every one of you, you made our stay so pleasant. It's so luxurious yet so relaxed, and ideal for children.

Good breakfast, very comfortable room with balcony, bathroom very good. Great location with beautiful views. Easy onsite parking for our motorbike. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The outdoor pool areas were lovely also the garden areas with some attractive plants.

Its location is stunning. The room was lovely and the pool and gardens are delightful. Breakfast was good but a bit chaotic at popular times.

The hotel was easy to reach on our way back home. We could park the car in their garage which was really comfortable. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was good and also the dinner was delicious. The staff was friendly and supportive. We enjoyed to relax in the pool area.

We only stayed for 1 night but there was always a member of stall available that spoke English which made ordering a most excellent meal in the resteraunt so much easier, the bar had some very nice local ports to try, the rooms were clean, the price was right and the buffet breakfast was more than enough to set us off for the next leg of our trip

Very nice hotel with friendly staff and comfortable rooms and facilities, in the morning you can enjoy a great varied buffet breakfast with plenty to choose from.

Lovely welcoming staff, really enjoyed wine tasting tour, included breakfast great, amazing view from our room over vineyards, pool area / pool really nice (even had drinks delivered to poolside!), walks around local area great - you can roam freely through the vineyards, lovely peaceful location with little/no tourists. Evening meals are extra but tasty as were the excellent home produced wines.

The setting of this Quinta, the helpfulness of the staff, the beauty of the pool set off by the stunning Douro Valley, made this one of our favorite stops on a recent 11 day visit to Portugal. The fact that you could have a "homemade" dinner right on site enhanced the rest and relaxation of the experience . The staff is ready to bring you a glass of port or local wine at poolside! Dinner is another opportunity to sample the wine of the region along with local dinner favorites.

Incredible views, peaceful, great pool. Brilliant view from the pool.

The friendly reception and services during our stay. Swimming pool, including a small pool for kids. Surrounded by vineyards. The location within the Douro valley. Short distance to town (Pinhao). Good breakfast. Option to have dinner. Nice wine.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Quinta do Silval - the location and views are stunning, you are surrounded by vineyards rolling down into the Pinhao and Douro valleys. It is quite remote (and don't trust google maps, it might take you off road) but only 15 minutes down to Pinhao, where we enjoyed a lovely boat ride and more amazing views along the way. The small family run hotel is friendly and comfortable. A good buffet breakfast is provided with fresh orange juice and hot options. Pre-arranged dinner is available from a limited menu - simple, hearty options, such as sea bass - and snacks/drinks are available on request during the day. The pool is a real bonus - stunning setting overlooking the hills. Would definitely recommend this Quinta for a relaxing, peaceful stay (but if you are looking for life, action and proximity to amenities, this is not it!)

The hotel is really beautiful about 1.5 hours from Porto. The pool is nice, the room has an amazing view. The breakfast was excellent. Greet costumer service. The main attractions are about 20 m. There are hiking trails near by.

Everything was up to the expectations, the hotel facilities, the rooms, the interior pool, sauna, and the breakfast was all great. The rooms are quite nice and very aesthetic with a nice design and decor

Beautiful hotel and rooms , great breakfast with omelettes made upon request. Restaurant is good for dinner as well. Great staff and facilities including the pool

The house in itself, fantastic stone construction, the main interior hall, open to the sky is amazing and the add-ons were well done. Views are simple but beautiful. Nice in and outdoors pool, enough space for many people, good jacuzzi and general installations. Breakfast good with the usual foods. The capuccino machine was very good. Very good size room with an impressive "varanda", overlooking the hotel garden, pool and the field ahead. The late night gentleman at the reception was so kind, so funny, so witty, that check-in was a real pleasure. Thank you for making us feel welcomed and for the laughter after a few good hours on the road. The other personnel were equally very nice.

Staff 5 star, great cleanliness, good pool area with a lot poolchair and shade. Lovely gardens. All the staff receives you with a smile and after a long day you can see all the care they put in the garden. Dinner at the restaurant was also a great experience.

Everything was exceptional Staff was very nice and thoughtful. Rooms were very big and well maintained and AC as well. Outside and inside pools were very nice , as well as the hot tub, a plus side was that the bathing cap was supplied by the hotel. Breakfast was exceptional, everything was present and very well made.

The food and service in the restaurant was excellent. Pool was great. Well located in a quiet country village but not far from spa town of Chaves.

Loved the pool jacuzzi and sauna! Breakfast was very good, everything frsh and tasty. Room was wonderful, well decorated, clean and comfortable. WC very clean. An enormous balcony

Lovely property with a wonderful view of the Duoro Valley. Rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. Nice breakfast each morning and the pool was great, especially the day we arrived early and we were able to use the pool until check-in. Nice pool umbrellas to keep you cool! It was a 10’ steep walk up from town, but you could get a taxi for 5E if needed. The staff was helpful for arranging rides.

Really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Only 9 rooms, very very clean, friendly helpful staff and views to die for. Make sure and book a room at the front as you look down onto the duoro river and wine lands. Breakfast was lovely as was the pool.nothing was too much hassle for the staff.yes its up a hill, so get a taxi from the train station on arrival. But after that, the staff will show you steps down which makes walking up/down easier. Snacks available at the pool, privste balcony with the room and bikes to hire. I dont even like cats but the hotels resident cat won us both over.the staff and location made this hotel for me.ps this is quiet town so ensure you book dinner on arrival eg in the bridge restaurant or the tapas bar on the main street ( really good) as things close early

We stayed at LBV House Hotel in Pinhao as part of a Portugal Green Walks walking tour. The rooms are pleasant and clean -- the ones at the front of the building have balconies with a spectacular view over the Douro River Valley. The infinity pool also has a marvelous view. It's nice that the pool area has seating both in the sun and in a shaded area. Breakfast is available at the hotel, but no other meals are served onsite. Since the hotel is located high above "downtown" Pinhao, it's essential to take a taxi, if you are arriving by train. If you have a car, there is an onsite parking garage. It's an easy walk down to the town to eat dinner -- just bear in mind that it's all uphill on the way back!

Wonderful views from our room and lovely sun drenched terrace. We had far reaching views across the river and valley. The room was very pleasant and had an excellent shower and a very comfortable bed. The swimming pool was refreshing, and a lovely place to rest for a while, after a steep climb with our bags from the station.. Staff were welcoming and helpful when we arrived, providing us with towels for the pool and drinks from the bar as well as information about a river trip. In the morning the breakfast was mainly good.

Outstanding on all fronts. Really clean, well-appointed, air conditioned rooms with terraces overlooking the Douro River Valley and the terraced hillsides. The hospitality from check-in to checkout was exemplary. The included breakfast was ample and high quality. Terrific small pool is quite the bonus feature Please note, this hotel and town are remote and quiet. If you’re looking for action, you’ll be disappointed here :) If you want quiet, relaxing refinement, LBV House is spot-on The hotel does not have a restaurant (does have a nice bar). So, you’ll need to go down into the town of Pinhão for dinner and lunch. It’s a steep 10 minute walk down and back up. If you’re fit (or want to be!) it’s a a nice way to see the neighborhood. If you’re not ambulatory or prefer not to walk, a car is required. Once in town, the restaurants, wine bars, shops and supermarkets are all within a stone’s throw of one another. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

I recently stayed here and honestly, it was one of the most relaxing experiences I've had in a long time. The place is incredibly quiet – no traffic noise, no crowds – just peaceful, with beautiful nature all around. You really feel like you can disconnect and unwind. The hotel itself is in excellent condition – everything feels well taken care of. The room was spacious, the bathroom was large and clean, and the air-conditioning worked perfectly (which was a huge plus during the warmer days). I also really loved the pool area – it’s beautifully set up and ideal for lounging around without it ever feeling crowded. Breakfast was a highlight. It’s all homemade, and you can tell – fresh fruit, warm bread, and the cakes… wow. I’m still thinking about them. Best of all, there were no lines or waiting around, just a calm, easy start to the day. And finally, a special mention to the owner – such a kind and genuine gentleman. He made us feel more like we were visiting family than just guests at a hotel. That kind of warmth really makes a difference. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for peace, comfort, and a personal touch.

Our experience here has been a highlight for many in our group. We came from Tourem, by foot, and this place has been a necessary, relaxing break from our walk. It’s provided shelter from a bad spell of weather, and exceeded our expectations by providing wonderful hospitality. It was great to converse with the owner, Antonio. His hospitality and warmth has made our stay. Toby enjoyed the sauna and being able to use the pool afterwards. Ted and Matt enjoyed using the games room, playing rounds of billiards and relaxing in the living room. I enjoyed the surrounding area, Outeiro, and the lake. A beautiful view when the sky cleared. Ultimately, we appreciate being able to stay in a location that cares greatly about hospitality with good hearted hosts. A good example of rural Portugal.

Great location, amazing pool and facilities, gorgeous gardens with pond, super friendly staff and lovely breakfast!

Located at the heart of Peneda Geres Park, it has stunning views and it's very quiet. Rooms are also nice, good price/quality relation Pool area is also nice Nice breakfast, considering a 3 star hotel Friendly staff

The property was in keeping with a wilderness experience. It felt authentic and personal. The view was awe inspiring. There was plenty to do near by. We loved walking through all the villages and speaking to the kind people there. It was great to be there when there were no crowds. The food and service at the hotel were second to none. We felt so at home.

Beautiful property with lovely rooms. Enjoyed a beer by the pool after a days cycling, watch out for the hill up to the hotel ! Very nice dinner too

The view, the pool, the breakfast and the dinner. I recommend more fore people they stay all day at the hotel.

Beautiful views overlooking the Douro, modern style rooms and great facilities such as pool, Turkish steam room, sauna and hot tube. Loved the atmosphere and style of the hotel as well as the connection with the winery.

This modern hotel is situated right on the Douro River across town easily accessible from the train station by walking over the old bridge (now a pedestrian only walkway). The room was a good size and comfortable. There is a small attached balcony but unfortunately there is no separation from the next room's balcony. We opted for 1/2 board which included breakfast and dinner in the restaurant which was excellent. I would recommend this as its great to relax in the hotel after a long day of touring wineries. There is also a bar on the first floor with good wine and cocktail selections. The pool was indoors and heated. The spa was closed for Covid. There's also a sauna. The staff was friendly and made all our reservations including a private car tour of a few wineries and a boat cruise on the river.

Hotel overlooks the River Douro, and few minutes walk from the railway station. Would recommend a room with a balcony, with fine views across the river. I didn’t use it but there is a decent sized swimming pool. Had dinner one evening in hotel, it was a buffet with good selection, something for most tastes. Breakfast is also buffet overlooking the river, again with good selection to choose from. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The Hotel has very nice location on a river bank. Personal is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast is tasty and served in restaurant with a river view on a bridges and Douro Valley. Swimming pool is additional advantage especially during hot days. Definitely recommend the hotel.

We got the river view. Give up the King room, whatever, for the river view. Very quiet and the balcony view oh my. A little swim after long boat ride in pool. Great breakfast.

This hotel has a most lovely view if you have a river view room. The location is near to the train station, taxi rank and bus stop. The breakfast has a good choice and you can also get an evening meal here. The pool area is lovely and clean and there is a bar nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. There is also a snack bar attached to hotel which serves lovely food. We have used this hotel before and we will hopefully be back.

Our Standard double room with small balcony & breakfast was great, we had a spectacular view of the Rio Corgo Gorge which was enhanced at night by floodlights. Our room came with breakfast, a comfortable bed, air conditioning, shower over the bath, TV, wardrobes and a small fridge. The balcony was large enough for us both to sit outside and enjoy an afternoon beverage. The hotel has 2 indoor pools the larger being 16 metres long, a very well equipped modern gym and outdoor sun leaners on the terrace and by the pool. The staff were great, very accommodating to our needs and friendly. We based ourselves here to visit the Douro Valley (no car) and being an easy 900 metre walk to the bus station to get to Regua, the valley and the MiraDouro Train made that easy. Great location.

We have stayed at the Miracorgo before. It is a lovely comfortable hotel in the centre of town, close to the many restaurants and bars but far enough away to be unaffected by noise. The staff are very helpful and speak excellent English. My husband had lost his motorcycle gloves and the very nice man at reception was able to locate a shop for us. There was also a very nice lady at reception who gave us information about the valley walkway (visible from the hotel) so we could make the walk NB good shoes required! There is a good bar in the hotel and the nice man in charge was also very helpful. The pool area was good too. Underground pool with outside sunbeds and towels provided.

this hotel is managed and run perfectly throughout the years, i love coming back to this place the rooms, the pool, the view, the bar, the members of hotel staff, everything is great, you can feel a wonderful heritage of this place, whether you are coming as a family for a vacation or you travel solo for work thank you, miracorgo

A good stay in a very clean property. The hotel is definitely in need of updating but it was exceptionally clean and comfortable and perfect for passing through for the night. Free parking onsite. Close location to local restaurants and shops. The included breakfast was great, with many options. Although we didn’t use the facilities, the pool area and gym looked great. Staff were all friendly and welcoming.

A lovely hotel in a great location. Fabulous swimming pool & spectacular views across the local town & countryside. Typical Spanish hotel breakfast but very nice, only stayed one night.

Perfect in every way! My mom and I stayed at Quinta Nova on the final night of our Portugal vacation and were soooo glad we did - our only regret was not staying for 2 nights! Beautiful property with amazing views of the Duoro River and Valley - there were several cozy living rooms throughout the guest house to enjoy while reading, playing cards, or relaxing. Our room was spacious and sparkling clean, and had an enormous bed that was heavenly. Lovely on-site restaurant that is nice for a lunch or dinner splurge (appreciated the vegetarian options available), wine tour and tastings, wonderful free breakfast, and extremely attentive staff. I appreciated the attention to detail such as pick-up and drop-off at the nearby train station, note and chocolates in our room upon arrival, etc. There weren't many hotel guests during our stay, so we really loved the peaceful and relaxing ambiance of Quinta Nova..especially after the hustle and bustle of Lisbon and Porto. I imagine it's probably a bit busier during the summer, when the weather is warmer and the pool is open. Highly recommend!

Recently had a 2 day stay at Quinta Nova. We had a wonderful stay, you can not beat the beautiful location and the views are simply stunning. We arrived to the property via train and we were able to organise transfers to and from the hotel which saved a fairly long walk up the hill. The room was clean and comfortable and had a nice outlook over the terrace and vineyards. The pool area was beautiful and was a nice area to relax. During our stay we did the sunset boat cruise which was awesome, more great views and excellent hospitality. We also had a 3 course dinner which was exceptional and found breakfast to be sufficient. Not a huge choice but all very fresh and tasty. We also found time to do the winery tour and tasting. The guide and staff at the wine shop were excellent and the tour was interesting and informative. We did have a few small room issues during our stay which was the only negative but we would still highly recommend Quinta Nova.

My husband and I had a lovely stay at Quinta Nova in September. We enjoyed everything that they had to offer. The property is fabulous and offers amazing views. Our room was comfy with a beautiful bathroom and loved the access to the outdoor terrace. The pool was also great! And we loved the patio. A great place to relax on their very comfortable lounge beds and enjoy the spectacular view. Our dinner at Terracu’s was INCREDIBLE and we enjoyed delicious wines with our meal. Our breakfast was also amazing. They have an excellent buffet and offer additional menu items that are prepared in the kitchen. By surprise, We were invited by the winemaker to stomp grapes. It was such a great experience and we had a blast dancing around to traditional Portuguese music. What really makes Quinta Nova a great property to visit is mainly because of their superior Staff! They were all very caring, attentive and wonderful people who took such great care of us. Looking forward to seeing them again next year!

Staff: 5 stars - Tirelessly working around the clock to provide a great service across the day. Food & Wine: 5 stars - we spent two nights eating and drinking at Quinta Nova. Although the menu is fairly limiting given its fine dining credentials, the quality and freshness of the food was second to none. Room: 4 stars - the room was nicely decorated with old period furniture. The only thing that it could have done with was a mini fridge to keep the water cold Pool & Surroundings: 5 stars - people come to this place for the view. It’s very well kept and absolutely stunning. In summary Quinta Nova is an exceptional stay. Although it’s quite expensive for the food and wine, it’s well worth it. This place does not have many rooms, meaning the winery is not flooded with guests. This means you can relax on-site without their being too many people. That’s worth a premium if you ask me.

Wonderful setting, we especially enjoyed the late afternoon sun by the pool, which is surrounded by vineyards. The view of the river and hills is breathtaking. Room was luxurious with old world charm, service friendly and the food tasty (although few vegetarian options). Because it’s quite a drive to get there, make this a destination, spend time at the property . In the morning we walked through the vineyards. They also have wine making tours. This was a bit of a splurge for us, but certainly worth it.

Clean , Modern hotel. Relaxed atmosphere. Fantastic breakfast.

The room was very spacious. I liked that you can turn the shades up and down while lying in bed. The host was very nice. The location is beautiful. Breakfast was oke for me. It was possible to boil eggs yourself, never seen that before in a hotel buffet😉.

The view is wonderful. The staff is great. Everything was good, cozy and clean. The room had a slight musty smell of old wood from the locker next to the bed. There were no vegetables at breakfast but it was tasty and varied.

Very clean, very helpful staff. Small room but reasonably well equipped. Great big thirsty towels and quality bed linen. Use of the indoor pool and jacuzzi is great although there is a strong smell of chlorine. Reasonable cost to hire pool robes. Simple but fresh and abundant breakfast. The gorgeous Vidago palace garden is across the road and can be accessed for 30 minutes a day. The gate keeper will let you in for a walk (and spring water when Font 1 is open). Several good eating places that we walked to. The Balneário Pedagógico de Vidago is a few minutes walk away and is an outstanding spa with spring water. Really reasonable prices and outstanding service and professionally trained staff. Maria José at the information centre is also an outstanding local.

We stayed here while attending the 10th Bonallack Trophy and the inaugural Patsy Hankins Trophy at Vidago Palace Golf Course, Portugal. This hotel provides a very reasonable alternative to the pricey Palace over the road. We had a room at the golf course end that over looked the Palace Course across the road, driving range and pool (though it was winter when we visited). the staff were awesome and very helpful, and really made us feel at home. It is a short 10 mins walk into the village that has afew nice little restaurants etc....all very quiet and sleepy in winter, probably busy in summer.

ALL the staff special mention to Arminda and Sandra were helpful and pleasant Hotel was located in quiet setting and pool pristine Breakfast included in reasonable tariff and we dined in for an evening meal Fish and Meat dish order came presented well and large servings soup was offered prior small carafe of vino tinto shared desert and two coffees for 44E with great service Bed large and comfortable quiet room 211

Great place to stay in the thermal NorthEast region of Portugal. Well located, has an amazing staff, always clean with a slight flower aroma in the air. Didn't have the opportunity to try the pools (indoor or outdoor) but had a great relaxing massage. And it's just a 2-minute walk to the thermal spa. I'll be back for sure.

I was impressed with the professionalism and hospitality of the hotel staff-we found very good conditions- it is a very clean hotel, nice atmosphere and good facilities. we tried the indoor swimming pool and jacuzi-very nice! And not to mention the location-it is in the best place-opposite Vidago Palace .

Super clean, upscale, traditional and welcoming. Attention to details! It’s The opposite of a generic hotel. This is exactly what we were looking for. Fantastic breakfast with all possible choice. Located in a curve on a busy road but it was build in a way that you don’t feel it at all. Restaurants are 10 minutes walk down hill while you enjoy the view. Otherwise easy to drive and park. Yes, there is something a dog barking at some distance but it’s not annoying. You will see this white Labrador going down the path to the restaurant. Just pet him, it wants to play ball. Pool is beatiful and nice ground. You feel like spending time there.

This property is surrounded by vineyards perched on the hill above the town of Regua with a view of the Douro river. It’s a perfect location for exploring the wine region and you’ll feel warmly welcomed in this traditionally designed and decorated small estate. The breakfast was generous and allowed us the chance to try all sorts of local pastries along with fresh, local cheeses and breads. We enjoyed walking down the hill into Regua for dinner and while the climb back through the vineyards was steep, it’s relatively short! The pool area was a great place to end the day after exploring the region and tasting wines. Highly recommend for a peaceful, relaxing sojourn.

Beautiful! Perfect for people with or without a vehicle. There is plenty to do in Regua within walking (or a taxi if you ask a local!). You are also centrally located with a vehicle to get around. The breakfast... Superb! Made to order eggs AND tons of other stuff. The rooms were beautiful, comfy, clean, and spacious. AC worked amazingly on days hat were over 115F! And the pool was perfect to relax in with an easy "serve yourself" little bar. I would recommend this place to anyone who asked me for recommendations! I look forward to returning in the future!

Beautiful family home with rustic charm. Appreciated the thoughtful touched and amenities - We enjoyed the breakfast, port wine in the living room, and pool very much. The bathroom tiling was gorgeous. Living quarters and amenities were clean. The owner and lady working there during our stay were both wonderful, polite, and kind. Great service. Cute cat on the property too! Our one suggestion - please consider adding dedicated shampoo and conditioner to bathroom. There was a shower gel kindly available but it was not as effective for hair. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

This was quite simply a marvelous place. It’s a family run boutique hotel, with a pool, large, spacious, spotless rooms and a staff that is kind and generous. We were traveling with two of my daughters and grandson and we were treated so well. The hotel has a million dollar view of the Douro Valley and there are dozens of wineries in the area that you can visit. Parking is available and the staff is always available to answer questions. We recommend the Casa, with a double thumbs up.

The surroundings were outstanding. Beautiful view of the Douro river. Great restaurants and staff. Amazing breakfasts. Unfortunately two very loud and obnoxious groups of other guests who basically took over the pool area on two out of three of the days we were there. Lots of drinking and shouting and in general complete lack of concern for other guests and leaving a large mess making it impossible for other guests to enjoy the same space. I would suggest that no bottles of wine be allowed near the pool. Guests can drink one glass at a time but should not be allowed to purchase bottles and drink them in public spaces. At least 6 bottles of wine were consumed during the time that the guests were there. This should be communicated to the guests when they check in. It was complete lack of consideration on the part of the guests.

Wow. What an amazing Quinta with picture perfect views. We had no idea how much we’d love staying on this property and only wish we could’ve stayed another day (at least) instead of just two nights. The vastness of wine country, the beauty of the perfectly planned vineyards, and the flowing river was easily appreciated from the two windows in our river front room, the terrace during breakfast, Tim’s Terrace for a delightful lunch, or the 24 hour outdoor pool where you can easily unwind. The staff are all kind. Shout out to Sara, who gave us and another couple a great tour of the winery. Be sure to book this if you stay here to get a lesson on port making and the history of the vineyard. The tasting in the cellar was a highlight of the stay. Dinner at the restaurant was tasty and convenient since dining options in Pinhão are limited (make reservations!) and the breakfast buffet was perfect. We were able to walk to our boat tour, Carvalhas and then to Bomfim and back but caution…it’s a dark walk back so you’ll need to use your phone’s flashlight. This was a better option for us rather than worrying about losing our parking spot right outside of our room. Yes, parking is tight but totally doable. While this property has a long history, the reception, restaurant, and tasting room are modern and the facilities and amenities are great. Heads up, lots of wasps, flies and a few mosquitoes being so close to the river, so be mindful when you’re eating on the terrace. Book this trip!

Simply beautiful property, accomodation well designed and to a high standard, spotlessly clean. Wonderful views, lovely small swimming pool, gorgeous grounds that are well maintained. Loved the wine tasting experience and the complimentary guide to the winery which was very interesting. Had a lovely meal in the restaurant one night and enjoyed eating out on Tim’s Terrace early evening in the sun with beautiful views of the river. Be mindful that depending on which accomodation booked you may have a bit of a walk from the main reception and parts are quite steep. You are reminded in the booking information it is not a hotel therefore to be aware not all hotel services are available. Notwithstanding it is a fabulous place and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there, highly recommend it.

The property is set in a beautiful location along the river, with a nice pool, vineyard and nice restaurant. The quality of the food in both restaurants was great, and staff friendly. There is no TV in the spacious rooms, which was a nice touch and added to the enjoyment of the property. The only downside was the limited opening hours of the bar and restaurant, and having to pre-plan all your meals.

The Quinta de la Rosa is absolutely fantastic! The views are spectacular, and the property offers many relaxing vantage points from where to enjoy them. Our room was very large and comfortable. The pool is wonderful - big, with plenty of sun chairs and beautiful views. The restaurant is outstanding! All the food was top quality and delicious. Highly recommend - if you are thinking of staying in the Douro, do not miss this one!!!

My husband and I travelled to the area because I have family in a small village nearby. I'm pregnant and don't sleep very comfortable so we decided to stay in a hotel instead of with family on an air mattress. We have travelled all over Europe and noticed that even a 4 star hotel looks and feels more like a 2 star hotel with the cramped rooms and smaller than usual "double" beds. This was the best rated hotel in town so we went this route and we were so pleasantly surprised. Our room was 2 twins, actual twin sized not slivers or cot sized beds like I've experienced before but they were put together and felt like a king sized bed which is what we're used to. The room was a very decent size, had a balcony with a pretty view of the town and mountains and a very nice pool. When the shades are down, you don't even know if it's still night time when you get up- pitch blackness and silence. The shower looked new and had multiple settings but the most impressive thing was how impeccably clean the hotel and room is. Not even a scuff on a wall. We joked that someone must paint after each guest. Even throughout our stay instead of just the usual made bed I feel like housekeeping cleaned the entire room and bathroom every day for us. I was wowed. It was a great stay and would recommend for sure! We also ate at the restaurant attached and that was also very good. A plus!!

When my friend and I, distracted by the beauty of the Douro valley, noticed we had no hotel reservations for that night, it was almost too late, most hotels right by the Douro were fully booked. Fortunately, we could still find a room in the Hotel Aguiar da Pena, although we were a little concerned by the distance to Peso da Regua, where most tourists prefer to stay. It was already dark, but the road was EXCELLENT, so we got there much earlier than we had expected. We were really surprised to see such a big hotel in such a small town. The hotel was amazing and very very affordable, we couldn't have found a better place to stay. There was a huge restaurant, the staff was very nice, the room was clean and comfortable, they even had an outdoor pool. Next day we drove a little bit around Vila Pouca de Aguiar (what a lovely name!) and were once again surprised to see such a little gem, which among pother attractions had a ruined castle. So I highly recommend this hotel if you're visiting the Douro region. It's a great and affordable place to stay, and not far from the action.

I thoroughly enjoyed my fleeting 24-hour stay at this lovely little family hotel. Before I arrived, I must have driven them absolutely crazy with my constant date changes, but they were so patient and kind. And when I did arrive, I was stupidly early, but they gave me an early check-in – of course they did! The room was spotlessly clean with a balcony with wonderful views over this special little town. Sitting there at night looking at the lights from far and wide was such a pleasure. The pool was delightful and a suntrap, with ample sunbeds when I was there. Vila Pouca de Aguiar was bustling and fun during the day, but very quiet at night in early September. I loved it, though. I had a mid-afternoon bus and requested a late check-out which – of course – was readily granted. I was allowed to stay until 3pm, which was incredibly generous. A family-owned business which is surely the best place to stay in the town.

i was a little worried because of previous reviews, but all went fine. Sure, there is no 24h presencial reception, but there are numbers to call written on the doors and then you re given infos to come in without waiting for anyone. Sure, there are no eggs at breakfast, but i m not english. Lots of cereals though, but no milk to go with ? I guess i just would have to ask for it, and they dont leave the milk out so it stays fresh

It was a very nice place to stay in Mondim. I usually go to another hotel but didn't make a reservation on time. This was certainly a great option to spend a couple of days around. The bathroom was very very clean. I always love places where the bathroom is very neat, it makes everyone feel more comfortable. Breakfast was perfect, and the service was very gentle

The room is huge and really cozy. I have been in four stars hotels that were not so comfortable as this one.

Clean and well kept hotel, very good breakfast

The Staff was very friendly informative and hardworking always available to give information no matter what time of day. The rooms were large , Very clean, You could look out from your balcony and see the action going on and you could go downstairs and be in the center of it all. The parking in Chaves is rough in the summer but we were given a access to the garage all we had to was ask. Very happy we stayed there and will likely continue to do do.

Everything! The staff were extremely helpful especially with trying to get the car parked and when I locked us out of our room! The room was spacious, nice bathroom and very comfy beds. Would stay again, no problem.

Perfect. Close to Chaves castle.Shops , restaurants ,hotel car park.Staff all ways welcome ,plus ready to help me.The breakfast was so delicious,prepared by a wonderful Brazilian lady.

A great location in walking distance of restaurant safe parking in garage for moto bike staff very helpful

Beautiful Hotel, amazing location, the service could be better. Specially by the pool, the service is not good. Could be better. We ordered drinks by the pool, and they took so long to be delivered, that we gave up. We waited more for the service.

This hotel exceeded my expectations and I would not hesitate in recommending it. The hotel had plenty of personality and the views over the river and the gardens were spectacular. Mostly the staff were very friendly and helpful, only with the occasional sullen or inexperienced member of staff. The pool was lovely and we played tennis on a couple of mornings. The tennis court could do with a little bit of minor attention. Breakfast was excellent, and the views from the breakfast terrace over the river were stunning. We had dinner in the hotel on the first evening and the meal was very pleasant. Not outstanding, but nothing to complain about and very tasty, I would eat there again. The bedrooms were very nice with a pretty, traditional bathroom, if I was being fussy the bathroom could probably benefit from a walk-in shower rather than a shower over a bath. The staff at the reception were extremely helpful in booking us a late wine tour. I think this was an excellent hotel and I would definitely go back.

Without doubt, if you are planning to visit Pinhao and the river, staying here is a must! We loved this hotel, from the very warm welcome, to the amazingly large room with a balcony overlooking the river, the beautiful colourfully tiled bathroom, the first class but expensive restaurant and the breakfast service, our experience was first class. The whole place has a relaxing vibe about it with lovely grounds and swimming pool, and terraces to enjoy the weather if it's good. This hotel was our favourite of the whole trip - and forget about hiring a car if you are travelling from Porto like we did, just catch the characterful old train - the station has private access to the hotel. If I have to find one fault, is is the same issue we have with many hotels - the evening lighting isn't characterful enough. Bright overhead lights; candles would help. If we return to this part of Portugal again, we would stay here without a doubt.

What a pleasant surprise to find this elegant hotel in Pinhão. Stayed two nights while biking in the area and enjoyed the luxury. The pool was very welcome since we were here in one of the hottest weeks. The staff were exceedingly helpful with our bikes/luggage situation and we appreciated being in a room that allowed us easy access. Breakfast was sumptuous and it was lovely to sit outside in the morning and overlook the river. Only downside was not being advised that our room was ready so we had to wait about 3 hours and struggled to find a way to pass the time in the heat. All in all, though, a super stay.

Our room was great with a lovely view of the river and the valley. The staff was very helpful and kind. We were celebrating my daughter’s birthday and the hotel restaurant staff brought a cake with a candle. And when we got back to our room, a bucket with champagne and glasses was waiting for us! It was such a wonderful surprise! On our last night we sat outside the beautiful garden overlooking the pool and the river and enjoyed our drink and cheese plate before having dinner at Bomfin just a short walk from the hotel.

I don't usually bother writing reviews, but our stay at Casa do Rio deserves one. Our host, Carlos, was fantastic - very welcoming and offered to help us with whatever we needed. He arranged for us to visit their vineyard for an afternoon by the pool followed by a port tasting and then dinner, they even arranged transport for us. Room was small but clean, bed was perfectly fine and the AC did it's job. We booked a room with a shared bathroom which was also good. There is a kitchen with the basic stuff if you want to cook. All in all a great experience in Douro Valley!

Clean, comfortable space in an awesome location. A nice common space family room with a well equipped kitchen. A nice café on the bottom floor and 20 other food options within a five minute walk. A tourism sales place across the street to book river cruises, wine tours, etc. Enjoyed!!

This was the perfect little spot to spend a few days. Easy walking distance to everything and easy street parking. The room was comfortable, AC worked great, and it was very clean. We would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Absolutely fabulous place Clean tidy my room is perfect the bathroom kitchen and living area are. I have a great view of the river too. Just excellent.

Great view ! Wonderful stay at Casa do Rio, nice anf simple rooms, central location, easy check-in and the owner was very accommodating.

No frills, a bit old/dated, but a killer value in a touristy region. Right downtown Regua, next to train station and several nice restaurants and tasting rooms. Just a couple min walk to the banks of the river. Many wineries within a 5-10 min drive. Mediocre mattress/pillows - but about as you'd expect for the price. I'd stay here again. Not sure if there is an elevator FYI.

Although staff can speak little English, they are very helpful. The room is simple but clean. The location is excellent. It’s just a half price of a room in Porto and even breakfast is included! Only to those customers with heavy luggage should note that there’s no lift so you’ve to walk to your room no matter which floor you’re staying.

this hotel was much better than we expected - it is perfectly situated near the train station and in easy walk of the beautiful river Douro. The room was comfortable and clean, breakfast was good, the staff were very friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be staying again in the future - thank you - a very pleasant and enjoyable stay.

We just stayed over here for a night because we had some wine tastings booked in the area. Since the price was a bargain I didn't expect much but I have to say this place was incredible. The staff were so friendly and everything was really clean. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to the Duoro Valley

Excellent and great value all round. Clean, comfortable, and does the job. Breakfast superb. Rooms were spacious, cosy and clean with very good air con. Great view from room. Close to station and amenities. Superb location for all our needs.

The hotel was built in 1996 so the design is somewhat dated. However, it has been well kept and I would have no complaints. The breakfast on offer was decent and allows you several choices with hot and cold offers. The lunch/dinner food prices are more than in town, but that is to be expected from a hotel. There is a large grocery nearby as well. Vila Real is a nice location to see the waterfall as well see the Mateus vineyard nearby. There is a nice pool downstairs, though we didn't find the water very warm, sauna available also.

Easy to get in and out of, spacious parking garage. Centrally located in town, easy walking to town and plenty of cafes and restaurants. Rooms were well appointed and roomy, though a little older, well kept; mine had a beautiful view of the gorge and Rio Corgo. AC worked well, but on the 8th floor, had a good breeze going. Breakfast was perfect and service excellent. Nice pool.

Hotel Mira Cargo was next to the center of historic area and looks out over the beautiful Gorge and stream. It rained both days we were there and the indoor Pool was broken, the reason I chosethis hotel. The breakfast was very nice and be sure to get a upper level room with view of gorge.

mooi hotel met gratis parkeren in de parkeergarage onder het hotel. We zijn zeer vriendelijk ontvangen door de receptie waar goed Engels werd gesproken. Restaurant hotel was gesloten. Vanuit het hotel loop je zo het oude centrum in waar er terrasjes en veel goede en goedkope restaurantjes zijn. Ook oude kerkjes in het centrum; een museum en dichtbij in het dorp Mateus het bezoekwaardige landgoed/museum waar de Mateus rose wordt gemaakt. In het hotel een mooie kamer, schoon, met balkon met uitzicht over de kloof waarin de Corgo rivier loopt. Er is een wandelpad op houten bruggetjes door de kloof. We hadden een wat hard bed; mar wel met een goed en stevig kussen. Sanitair prima. Ontbijtbuffet was ook prima en uitgebreid. Het hotel heeft een groot binnen zwembad met twee baden; het water in het grote bad was wat koud; het kleinere bad was wel verwarmd en lekker om in te zwemmen.

We had a nice spacious room with balcony and beautiful view over the Corgo valley. Great location only few minutes walk from city center with convenient parking garage in the basement of the hotel. The building has a few decades but has good design and is well maintained. The breakfast had nice bread and OK coffee, but choice and quality of cheese, meat and fruits could be improved. Overall good value for money.

Most rooms are spatious, not fancy but everything functional, tidy, and clean. Windows have the traditional exterior plastic drapes that are the perfect blinds if you wish to have a dark room even during the day. There’s a vending machine in the corridor with hot and cold at economical prices. The hotel has free private parking, something you wouldn’t find in those located in the centre. So, although it’s not a design hotel or anything near it, this hotel is perfectly suited for any peaceful stay.

Great place for a couple of nights. Affordable and great service. Just don't expect anything fancy, but for me I would stay again

Basic but clean and comfortable room Very nice and welcoming staff Good price Pet friendly

Free private parking. It’s not the best location if you want to go out on foot to wander about in the city, but it’s a good location if you have a car. Close to one of the main roads leading to the nearby Spanish border. It’s spacious and tidy. There’s a handy vending machine with snacks and hot and cold drinks.

We stayed in the one-bedroom chalet and absolutely loved it! The upstairs bedroom with the huge picture windows was so fantastic. We had rainy, chilly weather, so didn't take advantage of the outdoor seating and table, but it is really beautifully set up, inside and out. You can walk along the stream to get to a medieval bridge and, judging by the rope swing, it looked like you could swim in the stream in the summer. It's also a nice private location, at the end of the road with the three rental units well spaced out from one another. There's lots of nice sight-seeing and hiking to do in the area. We will definitely go back if we make another trip to Portugal.

A unique hideaway. Absolutely beautiful chalet, perfectly designed and presented. Everything you need, and more, beautifully presented. The location is just delightful. So private and green. The river offered unforgettable opportunity to wild swim. Beautiful walks. The breakfast hamper was a feast. Absolute treat, everything you’d want and more. The fresh fruit tasted amazing, bread, croissant cheese and ham fuelled us perfectly for our cycling tour. As if this wasn’t perfect enough the host went above and beyond to share the tourist highlights the area has to offer. I’m reluctant to write such a review as I fear when I book to stay again it will be fully booked!

The place is a perfect romantic escape for a couple of nights. Hidden between a forest and tiny river, gives the disconnect that you need at the same time providing the privacy you want during a romantic getaway. The place is beautiful, the chale is clean and comfortable and even though it is tiny, it has all you need. We came here to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and we got a lovely birthday cake with breakfast as well. Amazing service. Loved it and will be back!

Even though we had a short stay it's definitely a highlight of our trip so far. The host was so welcoming and nice to talk to us about adjacent landmarks. The little house had everything and more than one could ask for. The view from the window is something to return for. Everything is perfect, starting from the welcome snacks and drinks to the wonderful breakfast in the morning. The morning mango and bakery included were a delight.

We were arriving after closing hours and staff made sure to stay late until we arrived. Gave great recommendations for food in town and let us stay a bit later in morning. We stayed in the chalet and was one of the most cozy places we've ever stayed with gorgeus view in morning... Would absolutely recommend to anyone. Thank you so much

Rarely have I've stayed in a more pleasant place. Pedro and Sara are incredible. They make you feel at home, and to me, it really felt like a home away from home. This is what I told them as well. When I arrived, I asked if there were any female dorms instead of mixed. This wasn't the case but Pedro offered me a private room instead, with no extra charge. When I came in, he greeted me personally and he was genuinely happy to see me, I guess he is happy to see everyone that chose to stay in his hostel, because it is his life's work and feels very passionate about it. He's rightly proud about his hostel. Everything is really new, managed well and above all very clean. I came in and Pedro sat me down with a welcome drink and a thorough explanation about everything that one can do in the area. He showed me the hostel and we shared some really good stories. You can just use the kitchen, take some bread, coffee, tea, alcoholic beverages or pluck herbs from his garden free of charge, but they have an honest box where you can leave whatever you feel like paying. That is so kind and thrustful. This place is a gem and I would really recommend it to anyone. Whenever I will be in the area again in the future, I would certainly go back here.

Our stay at Hostel Douro Backpackers was absolutely wonderful and a highlight of our trip. We stayed in a private room with its own bathroom and it was the best of both worlds — the comfort of a nice hotel while still having the community and atmosphere of a hostel. The room was spotless, the bed super comfortable, and we loved that towels were included. Having AC was a huge bonus and made the stay extra comfortable. The gardens around the property were beautiful and such a peaceful place to relax. And the coffee — absolutely excellent, a perfect start to each day. What truly made the stay unforgettable, though, were the hosts, Pedro and Sara. They were so warm and welcoming from the start — greeting us with a welcome drink while Pedro gave us a great overview of the area. It’s clear that they genuinely care about their guests’ comfort and go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home. We were also lucky enough to be there during the hostel’s 6th anniversary, and Pedro and Sara cooked dinner and served drinks on the balcony for everyone. It turned into a magical night of good food, laughter, and connection with fellow travelers. We’ve stayed in many hostels and it’s rare to find hosts who put so much heart into what they do. Thank you so much Sarah and Pedro! Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay!

We absolutely loved the hostel - a nice vibe, great informative hosts (thank you Pedro & Sara), a great rooftop, five minutes walk from Pinhao station and beautiful scenery. The hostel was VERY clean and the shared bathroom was lovely. Every detail was perfect and there were so many personal touches - Pedro is a seasoned traveler and you can tell by the way he has designed the hostel. The rooms are bright and airy, the kitchen was super well equipped, there is an honesty box where you can pay for drinks and even a book swap. We instantly felt welcome and Pedro gave us so many ideas of what to do in the local area - we ended up doing a great hike with a wine tasting in the middle, as well as getting the train to Pochino too (the views were incredible). We would recommend for anyone travelling to the Pinhao/Douro valley area. It was particularly good for us as we didn't have a car - there are a couple of supermarkets and restaurants nearby too. I would also recommend over doing a day trip to the Douro valley - we took our time and we saw sights that the tours don't visit. And... For anyone who wants to visit at the beginning of the season - February was perfect for us! The town is nice and quiet but there was still lots of sunshine and if was a great temperature for hiking.

Definitely the best hostel experience I've ever had! Pedro and Sara are incredible and make everyone feel at home. They will take care of you from the moment you enter their door (with a welcome glass of wine!) to the very end of your stay or even trip. They are also the best guides in the area and will recommend you amazing food, hiking routes and activities not to miss in Pinhao.The hostel itself is in a great location within a walking distance from the train station, boat tours, quintas and much more! Spotless clean, spacious and additionally, you can enjoy your cup of coffee on the terrace with a stunning view. The kitchen is well equipped and also, the owners share the food & drinks with their guest (you pay what you can to the honesty box). All in all, absolutely the best stay you can imagine and Pedro & Sara make it unforgettable with their hospitality! I should probably mention as well that when I got lost during my hike and panicked around a few stray dogs, Pedro immediately came to pick me up and made sure I knew my way back. You've created not only a hostel, but home, for everyone who's visited you. Hope to stay with you again guys!

1. Hosts are very kind and friendly. I caught a bad cold and they were helping me to have relief tea for illness, and letting me know the closing time of pharmacy, so I could have proper step to deal with. And even if u don’t need a help, they are pleasant people to talk with. 2. Knows well around the area. Once u arrive, they will introduce detailed information around the town. If u want to go to trekking, they will share the trekking map of their recommandation, which u can track with gps. And I enjoyed the food 3. Rooms are clean, and airconditioned. At the moment when I stayed, I didn’t need that, but if temperature goes up more than 30 degree in celcious, you will have a thankful pray for airconditoner. 4. You can cook - kitchen is fully equipped. And after using dishes and cutleries, just put them in dishwasher, but pan and pot- should be washed by hand due to limited space in dishwasher. 5. (Optional) way to hostel has a wonderful view to drive. I was late to arrive and move to other city because of view. I was moving with scooter, and the landscape was too amazing to ignore.

You cannot capture in a picture the beauty of Casa De Canilhas. The view was beyond what I expected. the pool and landscaping were well kept. we stayed in a separate quest house with our own terrace. Breakfast was delivered in a basket with so many delicious fruits cheeses and breads. The staff was kind and helpful but in the background during our stay. it felt like we were at our own vacation retreat with friends! We met a few other couples when we were there and it was wonderful to sit around the pool drink wine and enjoy the view!!

Magnificent view from the room's private terrace. The terrace came with chairs and a table - which we used to sit and just take in the views. The room was large and comfortable - as was the bathroom. The pool was lovely - an infinity pool overlooking the river valley. The breakfast was delivered each morning fresh to our room - it was delicious and hearty. When we asked for more coffee it was provided the next day in our basket. We had a lovely time and I can't wait to return.

The spectacular views are just incredible!!! So relaxing and the pool was beautiful!! So enjoyed spending the day by the pool !! The breakfast was also an added treat !! So wonderful to eat al fresco surrounded by so much beauty!! Highly recommend!!

The views are absolutely stunning. Book a room with a terrace / patio and you get to enjoy it 24/7. Our favourite was the breakfast picnic delivery, to be able to sit on the terrace together and leisurely eat breakfast was wonderful. The rooms are authentically decorated, so don't expect super modern finishes but they're comfortable and homely. We had a room that was set in the garden away from the main house and it was perfect for us. Great to be able to order drinks and snacks by the pool, or to your room, also very reasonably priced local produce. They could do with a WhatsApp number to order when you can't find staff, but not essential. As you're on holiday, sit back and relax. Two nice restaurants in town for dinner. About 11- 15 minutes walk.

We loved everything about this hotel. Excellent location, very quiet and amazing views. The hotel has character, very quiet and the rooms perfectly adequate. The pool was great with amazing views and there were plenty of sun loungers to go around. The service was great, especially breakfast where they laid on a feast every morning for the 7 of us !! Lunch was quick and easy too and very well priced. There aren't too many places to eat locally but enough for a 3-4 day visit, with great local food at local prices. We were very happy with our stay and we will be going back I'm sure. A perfect place to lose yourself in peace and quiet for a few days - with the odd vineyard to visit too.

This place is unreal! Starting from the staff, very human, friendly and extremely kind, always available for anything you need. What about the property.. the pictures are exactly what you'll find, a paradise! Rooms are incredibly well designed, very spacious and with all the comforts. Breakfast in the morning is delicious, plenty of choice and the cakes are home baked!! The common areas are beautiful and open until late, plenty of pools and the jacuzzi corner is unbelievable! We spent the all evening drinking wine enjoying the incredible views of the valley. Sunrise from there also is fire! You must wake up early at least once to enjoy it!! There would be more to say but check the photos and book your stay here!! Totally worth it :)

Really loved both the location and staff. Super nice people, flexible enough for our needs at the time. Located in the beginning of Alvão Natural Park, it was a 6 to 10 minute drive to Vila Real, really showing how well positioned the location was. We didn't took advantage of their pools and jacuzzi, since we were more outdoor, hiking people.

Very nice place, with 3 swimming pools and 1 jacuzzi, amazing view from the room. room was clean and nice. staff was very friendly and welcoming. amazing breakfast, with a lot of choices. there is a lot of nature around so also nice if you want to go hiking

The location of the property was high up, we arrived in the dark so didn’t fully appreciate the amazing views until the next day although the lights from the town were very pretty. The room was beautifully decorated and had a log burner (which was good as it was a very cold evening), the bathroom was very nicely done, comfortable bed, good quality linen, we were able to use the main entrance kitchen area and the host kindly lit a fire for us. The next morning we could see the facilities and in warmer weather it must be beautiful and restful, bar area, pool, great views. Very romantic vibe. Our room had a swing outside which was good fun! Good breakfast, very generous quantities.

Beautiful setting with views over the forest. Quiet, clean and confortable room, nice swimming pools, a/c, wifi, Awesome breakfast, fruits/meat/eggs/yoghurts/cheese/cereals, etc. Very happy with our stay and would return in a heartbeat

We took the bungalow, and I was hesitating about this. But that is a perfect choice for a couple. Yes, there's not much space inside, but everything you need - the fridge, the kettle, the nice bathroom with good water pressure, AC, amazing terrace. No mold, and everything is very clean. The bed is very comfortable. The outside space is also outstanding - the pool is warm and has an incredible view. Everything is in flowers, and the lawn is good. The owners of this place are very nice and gentle. We ate twice in the restaurant, and that was an experience. Probably, one of the best restaurants in this part of the country - with locally produced products.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the service we received was first class, Fernanda and Miguel could not have been more helpful through our stay, everything about the stay exceeded our expectations. The location itself is beautiful, the accommodation is of a very high standard, the pool is perfect and the service we got from Fernanda, Miguel and the team was amazing. The food was incredible, freshly prepared each day by Miguel from local produce, and for all this the value for money was excellent. Thank you again, and we look forward to seeing you in the future.

This is an absolutely extraordinary place!! The owners, beeing born at this site and coming back to it after having lived over 20 years in England, are very passionate in whatever they do and very warm hearted to their guests. The staffs love working there and you feel this positive spirit in every corner of this place! You can do wonderful hikings around this area. Take enough days to enjoy this outstanding site! Not mentioning the stunning view, the pool and the great food! Sure that we will come again!

Stunning location, wonderful staff, impeccable local food and drink. The facilities were well thought out and cared for from the lunge with the large terrace overlooking the lake to the infinity pool. Rooms were a nice size and all had a balcony to take advantage of the magnificent views. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful walks and impressive vistas wherever you looked. Quite magical place to immerse yourself in nature. We found it very hard to leave, I shall miss the quiet and the birdsong.

The views, the tranquillity and the pool were great. Angela’s hospitality was above every known standard. She invited us to stay and enjoy the pool till late afternoon on our checkout morning, she served us a try of cheeses and snacks with 2 glasses of wine to the pool area, and she gave my husband as a gift a book he started reading from the house library. The dinner Foni clocked us was amazing.

Quinta Da Marka has a pristine view of the river and rolling hills of the Douro Valley from multiple locations on the Quinta, including our room, the pool, patios and dining area. The staff was warm and welcoming. When we arrived mid-afternoon, Susana prepared a delicious lunch for us. We chose to relax and take in the ambiance on the patio near the pool all afternoon until dinner. Both dinner and Breakfast were delicious! Our room was comfortable and quiet. Upon our departure Angela gave us many suggestions of places to visit. We would highly recommend this Quinta for a deluxe and relaxing stay.

Fantastic small hotel situated on working vineyard, furnished old world charm. Lounge, library and many outdoor areas to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the amazing views over the Douro Valley and river. Angela and her staff were fantastic offering great service, we were treated like royalty. She picked us up from train and ferried us around to and from train station and to a nearby vineyard for lunch and wine tasting. Best breakfast we've had on our travels though France, Spain and Portugal. Room was amazing with all amenities great view of sunrise, river, and sorounding vineyards. We enjoyed their beautiful rose wine produced on site at a extremely reasonable cost, they had others but we only drank the rose with it's crisp and fruity taste. Great pool with plenty of sun lounges and of course the fantastic views. I would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing time out from the rigours of travel, we stayed 3 nights and loved every minute there.

Stunning location and an amazing place to relax. Nothing was too much trouble for Angela and the staff. All the facilities were very high spec and it felt like being home from home. It was much more than a hotel - we felt part of a big family. The food was exceptional and we ate in a light and airy dining area overlooking the river. Wow - like paradise from the moment we arrived ( by train to Ferrão-a station on the Douro line) Angela picked us up and whisked us 5 minutes up the hill. Welcome drinks by the pool and views to dream about!! We’ll be back- shame we only booked one night!

Amazing little hidden oasis tucked into the Hills of the Douro Valley. The property is well laid out with lots of little nooks and crannies for people to enjoy privately. The views up, down and across the Douro Valley were spectacular. The pool was a welcome relief at the end of a day of exploring nearby vineyards. We were super appreciative and relied on the information we were provided with upon arrival. From the meals cooked and served to the check in and housekeeping teams we were humbled by the hospitality and caring bestowed upon us so that we could enjoy a top quality experience.

The ambience. It's like an oasis of calm and the staff are all delightful. The buildings and gardens are a feast for the eyes and I was very pleased that the swimming pools were kept open in early October. The quiet pool is gorgeous, even if it was a bit cold getting in. The tiles are smooth and matt, not shiny and slippy. Just divine and you are surrounded by trees and a robin singing. The rooms are spacious with a decent sized fridge, a kettle and very comfortable bed and a sofa. Guests have the use of a charming sitting room with wood burning stove, antiques and books. Another guest said to me 'i could live here.' and I know what he means. You may not get power showers but you can relax, take a walk, look for the hotel cat or the frogs. Breakfast was very good, with produce from the garden - although some guests had to wait for others to vacate. Problem was some guests were so happy they were forgetting to leave the table.. I hope to be back before too long. What am I saying? Don't want everyone making a beeline for this special place.

The area was gorgeous. The landscaping and pools were stunning. We would love to return in warmer weather to enjoy the pools. The fresh breads each morning were delicious and greatly appreciated!

the Levada estate is fantastic, from the lovely smell of the trees as you come up the driveway, the beautiful buildings, the friendly welcome, the wonderful pool and bread every morning in honour of an ancient tradition of sharing bread. it’s a quiet oasis in Vila Real. nice walk into town along the river too. the pool area is fantastic.

What a beautiful location! One of the best stays we've had in years. This residence is a dream... That garden, that hospitality... Simply wonderful. The location is romantic, the beds are soft, the bathroom has a perfect shower, the breakfast is delicious, the employees are incredibly friendly and think along with everything... The garden is truly gorgeous and spacious, and you can choose from two swimming pools. And the 'trust shop' sells nice foods like local cheeses, tomatoes, bread, wine... There are fruit trees everywhere. Simply great! We only stayed 2 nights but it felt like we've been unwinding for weeks. Tip: We highly recommend having dinner in this place as well! These people know how to cook and the outside patio is truly romantic... Had a delicious fish stew, but they can cook other things as well. There's also loads to do in the area. From wine tasting in the Douro Valley to hiking in the Alvao National Park. You will not regret visiting this place. Would highly recommend it.

This place is an exceptional hidden gem. The location is great (can easily get around the region by taxi) and the estate is absolutely amazing. We stayed in one of the houses on site and were surrounded by gardens and vineyards. The food here is amazing and homemade and there is an honesty shop to buy local wine and snacks. There are two beautiful outdoor pools. The staff are very accommodating (when one of my friends got sick they delivered medicine to our house) and the breakfast is also worth a special mention. The buildings themselves are old farmhouses beautifully restored and ours came with a fireplace (and the occasionally visiting ginger cat which was a bonus). I'd wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who's after relaxation and tranquility.

The location was beautiful and fantastic for wildlife lovers. The apartments are quite new and very well maintained. The standard of cleanliness is very high. The pool is amazing but the landscape views from it even better! The site is very well organised. You have your own poolside loungers. There are BBQ facilities. There are shady outside sitting areas with tables and chairs. There is a lot of space and you are free to walk the estate and wander the woods and vineyards. The fridge is pre-stocked with butter, jam, fruit, cheese and meats. Warm bread, croissants and cakes are delivered to your door each morning and for us there was more than enough to make a lunch too.

Very nice quinta with apartments/swimming pool/bbq. The apartment was nice and comfortable with a lovely view from the balcony. The swimming pool area is fantastic with great view on the valley. Breakfast options very limited but plentiful (every day fresh break, croissants and natas).

This property is in a scenic location in the Douro Valley on a lovely farm approximately 6 km from Peso da Regua. The self-contained guest house is spacious and well equipped with kitchen utensils, etc. There is a nice living room in which to relax and a small deck to take in fresh air and hillside views One bonus was having a regular type drip coffee pot! Breakfast was spectacular. For our two night stay, the fridge was stocked with milk, juice, water, and a bottle of Rose. As well, packages of sliced cheese and ham were available along with butter, jams, etc. At a time of our choosing, hot croissants, several small buns (suitable for sandwiches) and two Pastel de Nata pastries arrived at our door. The property is exceptionally clean and neat. There is a swimming pool, which in the summer, must be grand.

We've stayed here before which is why we returned. It's a quiet location and has a fabulous pool. The apartment is spacious with a balcony to sit out on overlooking a wooded valley. The property is set in a working vineyard and the outlook in all directions is lovely. The fridge is well stocked with basics for a breakfast and fresh bread rolls, croissants and cakes arrive each morning. The staff are charming. The Douro valley is stunning and the boat trip with lunch to Pinhao is well worth doing. We also took the train from Regua to Pocinho-again a beautiful trip.

THE VIEW! Whether it is from the swimming pool (looking magnificently over the valley!!) or our balcony (trees, hills, sound of a waterfall) This is a truly magical place and I cannot recommend it enough. Nice shower, proper beds, fresh bread in the morning an you can wander across the wineyards as you like. For this budget: Quinta the Portelada is an absolute no brainer. Drive a bit more. Just do it.

The Pine House is an exceptional B&B — yes, a real bed and breakfast, with a truly cozy breakfast. But first, the rooms. I stayed in the suite with a balcony, and the view and vibe were so lovely that I cancelled my hiking plans just to enjoy it. The suite itself had thoughtful design details (especially in the bathroom) that were both beautiful and functional. You can tell the hosts are passionate about running the B&B — there were countless little touches that made me stop and think, “Ah, this is nice!” The hosts are warm and welcoming. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the conversations over breakfast were lively and interesting. I honestly can’t think of a single reason not to stay here. I already miss it — and I hope to be back one day.

The Régua Pine House is a hidden gem in the heart of Peso de Régua. I only stayed one night, as I was driving the historic N2 highway, and needed a pet-friendly accommodation. I would happily return to stay and explore more of the area. The house is beautiful, with a lovely veranda and view down to the river. The room was large and very comfortable, and the bathroom was gorgeous. I especially appreciated that there was plenty of space to put my toiletries—often in older homes there is little shelf space & I end up juggling my few items just to wash up or brush my teeth. Senhor Pedro was very welcoming. I had had somewhat of a long, hot drive, so it was lovely to simply relax on the veranda and enjoy the sunset.

It’s a pity that you can’t see that little treasure from the outside. But the moment you enter the building, you think you enter your home. And then you go straight up to your bedroom! Very cosy and spacious, with a nice clean bathroom and a big shower. The bed is big and comfortable, with bedsheets that smell really nice. The breakfast that was included in the price, was delicious. The staff is very polite and they were willing to help us with late check in, as we arrived late, even though we booked at the last moment. We would definitely stay there again!

I would like to give more than 10 points to this accommodation. Definetly one of the best rooms we've ever had. All the house have luxury and high standard feeling and it's very stylish. Perfect beds, silent area, big and beautiful bathroom, big outdoor terrace and we had a room with private balcony with wonderful views. The suite was big and there was a mini kitchen and really good wines to buy. Breakfast was delicious and served beautifully. Yes, you have to walk uphill, but with luggage you can take a taxi. We regret that we reserved only for two nights.

The room was huge and had a table and chairs as well as a place to prepare food and a kettle! (Very unusual in this part of the World). The staff were extremely helpful, and were very welcoming even though we were arriving late. They helped us find a place to park outside as well which was great. The breakfast was amazing with plenty of choice and fresh coffee. We had it outside on the patio which had a lovely view. And the owner,’s niece was serving us and we enjoyed our chat with her.

The views were outstanding. We arrived on a sunny afternoon, and a storm blew in. It was fascinating to watch from the balcony. The owner/host was the best! He was very friendly and eager to help us. He provided wine glasses so we could enjoy the port we had purchased during our drive through the Douro valley. The pool was enticing, however, due to the rain, we did not use it. Parking our van was easy. Everything was wonderful.

We booked this room late due to a change of plan and it was wonderful to have the opportunity to stay in this special place. The distant views over the Douro vineyards and the infinity pool were amazing. The room was really clean, modern, and spacious. Our host was very friendly and a delicious breakfast was served in the well appointed dining room.

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were super friendly, everything was clean and well taken care of, and the breakfasts were delicious. You can feel that everything is done with heart and attention to detail. Stunning views, a great pool — we truly enjoyed every moment. We’ll definitely be back!

the rooms were amazing, and the pool was perfect🥺🥹❤️ we booked this place by minutes bc before this place we were supposed to stay at some creepy hotel , we got away from the creepy hotel and got here, this is such a perfect place to stay🥰❤️

Beautiful location and facilities. The staff were very nice and accommodating. Everything was very clean. The included breakfast was simple but good variety and delicious. The pool was very nice for relaxing.

Wonderful place in a pieceful location. Loved the pool area and the sunny terrace. Very kind staff, willing to listen and accommodate any request they could. We were allowed to use the pool before and after checkin. The room we had was a bit small, but both mattress and pillow really comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were tasty and fresh.

We liked everything about the property: it’s amazing, far reaching panoramic views across the local village and vine covered hillsides and valleys, the comfortable, light-filled, secluded room with large glass doors on two sides opening onto private paved and grassed terraces (again with those views), the beautiful landscaped grounds fully planted with amazing flowers and fruit trees (one of the owners greeted us with a basket of freshly picked cherries)! the large welcoming pool set into the hillside with it’s immaculate surrounds and well-placed sun beds and furniture, the well-stocked bar and dining room offering delicious evening meals. What wasn’t to like!

We stayed in the bungalows which were private and had gorgeous wall-ceiling view onto vineyards. Very spacious bedroom and bathroom included lots of closet space and a small fridge. Nice pool, but the weather was a little cool for checking that out. Most of the staff were very pleasant and helpful. Service in the dining area could have been more friendly and attentive. However, we appreciated full breakfast included and the option for dinner (fixed menu) or tapas in the evening since there are no other options without driving to another town or down to Pinhão.

I don’t know where to start since the patio areas, pool, scenery and outstanding service really made for the most amazing relaxing weekend getaway. We traveled as a group of several families and truly enjoyed our stay. The staff was a delight and loved engaging with our children and making sure that one of our special needs child felt comfortable during his stay. The hotel offers a broad menu that catered perfectly to us parents as well as our kids. I can’t wait to go back.

The location is really out of the way but thanks to GPS we found it! The quinta is situated on outskirts of a small village which is quite charming. Staff was very welcoming and quite helpful. We enjoyed the onsite dinner options and the Quinta's wine. The room was very nice and outside seating along with pool area allowed us to enjoy the beautiful countryside. A suggestion would be to offer guests a complimentary glass of the quinta wine when registering.

Inês and her husband are very caring hosts, when we arrived, we had a small welcoming from them and a presentation on the propriety and how the amenities were organised, the atmosphere was very relaxing and calm, the view is amazing and the pool has a decent size and is not very deep. To bath on the pool looking and the douro river and all the vineyards is just breathtaking. The breakfast has a great variety of food, homemade scones, cakes, and fruit you can choose from and Inês and her Husband are ready to help you if need. The rooms are big enough for a great night sleep. The other guests seemed to be on the same mood, everyone was very quiet and everyone behaved. There are a variety of nearby restaurants you can choose from if you like to get some lunch or dinner. Overall, if you need to get away from your world and enter a new dimension, this is a place to go to!.

A fantastic view of the Duoro Valley and river and the cosy, tranquil and familiar atmosphere of this place. Felipe is such a great host and such a nice and smart person to talk to. He welcomed us with a glass of Porto and showed us around providing us with a lot of recommendations. You really feel at home and that's exactly how he wants you to feel. There is a coffee machine and a filter water machine that is free to use whenever you need in the dining room, as well as a big shared fridge where you can put anything you need to keep it refrigerated. In the afternoon some cakes are left for the guests and he also provided some towels for the pool. The whole pool area is amazing with a breathtaking view, there is a jacuzzi and a lively terrace with hammocks and tables and a small Japanese garden with a waterfall which adds an even more relaxing touch to the place. Free parking is available on site.

We are a couple and came to Imaginário D'El Rei for three nights and would have stayed longer if we could :) First, It was really different to meet real staff in-person and to get to such a cozy place and after a week staying in self service apartments . Upon arrival, we were warmly received with a taste of port wine which was great. Everything in this place really felt like home, for example the design of the common area, the coffee and cakes available all day, even the bed linen in the room, and most of all - the staff. The staff was amazing. Not in many places you feel that the staff genuinely care about its guests and here it was definitely the case. This made our stay exceptional and make us want to come back. Plus, the cat was awesome :) Another thing that makes this stay special is the magnificent view of the Douro river shown from the room's porch, with a good angle to watch the sunrise. The breakfast was excellent. There is a shared fridge that the guests can use. Parking is easy to enter/exit. We didn't used the pool because of the cold weather, but it looks awesome too.

Wowza!!! What a view! If you’re visiting the Douro Valley region, strongly consider making Imaginário your base. Perched on the hill, the 180 degree vista is stunning. Whether from the grounds, the infinity pool, the hot tub, or from your rooms deck or balcony. I would suggest booking a second floor room. The view is just that little bit better. But it’s not “just” the view. The accommodations and breakfast are great. Plus your host Filipe is top notch. He could give master classes to other B&B owners on how to be a superb host. From the moment he greets you in the parking lot on arrival until he waves goodbye, you will be impressed by his warmth and charm. He truly loves having travellers visiting his ‘guest house’ and nothing seems to be an inconvenience to make sure we are looked after. If I could give this place an 11 or 12 I would! Highly recommend.

Out of all of the places we stayed in Portugal (we toured the entire country) Imaginario D’El Rei was our favorite! Philip was very hospitable and went out of his way to make sure all of our needs were met. He helped us learn more about the culture and drove us to a local restaurant, Convívio, in Mesão Frio, where we experienced Northern Portugese food at its finest! The views were spectacular. We enjoyed the hammocks overlooking Douro Valley, hot tub, infinity pool, and delicious breakfast buffet. The suite was immaculately clean and the bed very comfortable. The sunrise was spectacular. The location is very convenient as it only took a few minutes to drive into Pinhao for a river cruise or to visit a local vineyard. We did not want to leave as the experience was one of a kind and we truly felt at home. When we visit Portugal again, we will be staying here!

We absolutely loved our stay at Quinta de la Rosa. We stayed in the farthest detached house and we loved our romantic walk through the vines everyday as well as the semi-private pool. We feel like we got the best room because it was raised and looked out over the pool into the mountains beyond. We loved that in our room there was a bottle of wine, tons of fresh water, and other items like beer, soda, etc that we could use if we wanted and report on an honor system at the end of our stay. We're more of an adventurous-type traveling couple and we cancelled our afternoon plans just to hang by the pool here because the ambience was so amazing. The dinner was just perfect, no notes,. Incredible food, incredible service. Just the works. We did a wine tour/tasting here and it was very nice! 10/10. Highly recommend for a honeymoon. Would love to come back again soon!

Gorgeous property set in a stunning location - possibly one of the most impressive places we’ve stayed at. Super hospitable staff across the wine tour, reception, restaurants (Tim’s terrace in particular!) The booking email is slightly jarring with the caution around steps, location of casa amarate (which is not a far walk) and facilities. In reality, this is a luxury staff with ample comforts! There are some sets of steps which may cause some struggle for those with mobility issues but not a problem for the regularly functioning. Jacuzzi is also in a nice hidden spot! We stayed in casa amarante which has its own pool and actually ended up being a nicer / private spot for us to relax than the main pool. Breakfast is also delicious - lots of cheese, yoghurt, pastry, preserve selections and you can order eggs. Overall thoroughly recommend this spot if you’re staying in Douro

We spent two lovely nights in 2 different rooms(due to availability issue). Both rooms were sparkling clean, with luxurious linens, towels and robes. Comfortable beds AND the most delicious smelling Molton Brown bath products! The views were wonderful from our rooms, as well as from their beautiful pool area. Breakfast included was divine, and we enjoyed our meals on their outdoor terrace overlooking the river. Tim’s Terrace had an amazing burger, and our dinners at Cozinha da Clara were delicious. After a day out, we loved coming back to the Quinta to relax and know we could have our meals there. I suggest you book in advance a tour and wine tasting, as well as dinner for the day of your arrival. And arrive at time of check in to enjoy the pool beforehand. The staff were very welcoming and sweet.

The room we stayed in was very beautiful (much more than the pictures on booking.com shows) and the poolarea was lovely and there are no closing time on the pool - so you can bathe both early and late.

Location spectacular. Facilities very good - lovely restaurant and excellent breakfast (and dinner). Room very clean and had everything we needed. Pool and pool area very pleasant. Enjoyable (complimentary) wine/warehouse tour, and great that you can try (and buy if you like them…) their wines and ports. Could top up room water (it was very hot when we were there) and get coffee in the communal lounge.

Everything was perfect. The host was so so so nice. The place was relaxing. There was a swimming pool, can swim and take sunbath. I like to sit at the sofa beside the pool, read and enjoy coffee and the view of the valley. The host recommended serval restaurants, all were good.

The hotel is very well located and has an amazing view! The hosts are very friendly and also the breakfast was very delicious. We could use the pool and we enjoyed to sit on the terrace with a glass of wine with this incredible view. We can highly recommend this place!

Stunning views; fresh homegrown fruit for breakfast along with all the other goodies; beautiful pool overlooking the Douro Valley. Cleand and comfortable facilities. Manuel was a charming and personable host; much hilarity with some mistranslations with googletranslate.

The view is absolutely stunning here!! It was wonderful having the pool and the outdoor shower and the host was attentive and provided a wonderful breakfast.

The setting is totally spectacular! The view over the Douro River and hillsides is beautiful. The swimming pool was delightful on such a hot day.

Great place to stay and explore Douro Valley. The apartments feel brand new yet have the character of an historical place that is in the family for many years - clean, modern and where every detail is carefully thought through. The infinity pool is a big plus, allowing relaxation overlooking the vineyards anytime of the day. The staff is super nice and even showed us the lovely vegetable garden in the premises. You can feel everyone loves what they're doing here, and we felt very welcome!

A stunning find in the further reaches of the Douro valley. We were met with a super warm, smiling welcome from the owners and the staff. Quiet location, excellent style, recently renovated, beautiful pool overlooking the valley. The whole team went above and beyond to make our stay special, including making us fresh sandwiches on arrival, homemade lemonade, and topping off with a basket of freshly picked peaches from their gardens. A lovely site, matched with lovely customer service. Thank you.

Loved everything about this property. The views from the facility were phenomenal. It was so family friendly. They had not only a crib but also a high chair for us to use already set up. The pool was a highlight for the little ones to enjoy on a hot summers day. Wish we had stayed here a couple extra days. The breakfast basket was filled with delicious fresh bread delivered that very morning. Was so lovely.

A group of 11 of us rented 2 apartments and a studio, all of which were spotlessly clean and very well-kept. The location, about 10/15 mins drive from Régua itself, is very tranquil, with stunning views of the valley. We appreciated having use of the barbecue area and loved the pool. The hosts and maintenance staff were faultlessly helpful, cheerful and friendly. Breakfast delivered to our door every morning was an added bonus.

Stunning infinity pool & view. Beautifully crafted property…renovation of a former farmhouse. Super-friendly staff. Special mention of Edmunda….friendly, helpful & a real diamond. It was quiet on my midweek one night stay, so I was offered the use of the garage for my motorbike. Hope to return with my wife or a group sometime.

This is a beautiful older home nestled in the rolling hills among the vineyards between Mesao Frio and Peso de Regua. Our bedroom was quite large, and the bathroom was almost as large as the adjoining room. The home is decorated with antique furniture and unique religious art and artifacts. The view from our bedroom window included sloped vineyards as far as the eye could see and a charming, small neighborhood church. We enjoyed some time lounging by the lovely infinity pool. Our hostess, Joan, was an absolute delight. She recommended and called to reserve a table for one of the best dinners we enjoyed during our time in Portugal - at Aneto and Table in Peso de Regua. Breakfast was abundant and delicious, as was the company of fellow travelers. The property is extensive, and the garden and pool area are more luxurious than you might expect when you first arrive at the front of the main building. We highly recommend staying here for as long as possible!

This is a magical place to witness the beauty of the region. Staying at Casa d' Alem is an EXPERIENCE. The house has an old-school elegance, and it is clean and overall comfortable. The grounds are beautiful, the pool is refreshing for those hot afternoons, and the view will leave you speechless. The breakfast was tasty and satisfying (coffee, fresh juice, breads, meat, cheese, jams, fruit, yogurt, cereal). The small touches were really lovely, such as fresh cut flower arrangements and having the beds turned down at night. Though we didn't have a car, it is still accessible by train to Regua, then a 15 euro taxi ride up, up, up. We stayed 2 nights, and could have stayed at least 1 more! Our host and the other staff were incredibly kind, helpful, accommodating, and thorough. Thank you!

The drive to this amazing place is one of the most beautiful in Portugal. We were fortunate to drive just as the sun was coming down making the river gold as it is named after. From the check in to the swim on the pool our start was pretty smooth and relaxing. Dinner was great and the opportunity to chat with fellow guests felt inclusive and like a family home. Breakfast was full of traditional jams and bread. With a good selection of everything you want to start the day and explore. The opportunity to reconnect with my essence as a portuguese living abroad and sharing that with my foreign partner was definitely a big emotional experience.

Joana was an amazing hostess. The other ladies were fantastic too. We stayed for 2 nights but could have stayed for 2 weeks. Felt like visiting family. Charming old home, now accomodation. The pool the gardens, the house, the location with the church bells, vineyards and mountains was just amazing. We reloaded our batteries by relaxing completely. We had dinner here on the second night, which we highly recommend. Hospitality second to none. Good breakfast and comfy bed, good shower and stunning views. The rooms are large and equipped with all you could need. Joana was accommodating, adaptable and it felt like family seeing us off after only 2 nights. Would recommended 100 times over.

Beautiful country traditional Portuguese house, with plenty of charm and little corners to discover. Peaceful with beautiful views of the vineyards and small church. We didn’t use much the pool as we were all day out mostly, but we did watch the beautiful sunset, it is definitely a plus. Breakfast was very nice and fresh with local jam, which was served on the outside garden. Staff is very welcoming and ready to help. Lovely stay.

Located in a beautiful vineyard, an amazing house with big living areas and gorgeous pool. It was nice to sit by the pool, take a stroll in the vineyard, or just have a glass of wine on the sofa.

EVERYTHING! The property was beautiful, relaxing, and quiet. The pool was large and refreshing on a hot day. The location was great, The room had everything you need, and the on-site wine tour was phenomenal. We also had dinner at the restaurant and it was so delicious plus the view from the restaurant was beautiful. The service was top-notch! I sat in the lobby one evening and someone handed me a glass of port wine for free and without asking, truly catering to my every need! The breakfast was great (sat out on the patio each morning in the sun) and the front desk booked everything we wanted (boat tour, wine tour, dinner in town, taxi transportation). They handled our every need and we barely had to do any of the planning. Thank you to the Casa de Pipas for a relaxing stay!

Beautiful setting surrounded by vinyards. We had a family room in a separate building a couple of hundred yards from the hotel, so a short stroll for a very nice breakfast in the morning. Dinner is either a taxi ride to Pinhao/Sabrosa, or there is a restaurant at the end of the drive... no menu, which was a bit disconcerting, but the food was really top quality. Really liked the honesty bar near the pool, which was a great place to sit with a glass or two of the local wine. We were on a walking holiday, and the walks in the local area around Sabrosa, Alijo and Pinhoa are absolutely stunning. Daniel was effectively acting as host and he was brilliant.

We never wanted to leave! After a day of wine tasting, we drove onto the property and were immediately blown away. Beautiful place in the middle of the vineyards. Staff were so helpful! They arranged dinner for us that evening and showed us to our room a few steps away from the main building. Breakfast was yummy. Pool was delightful. You could help yourself to beverages from the fridge near the kitchen and just leave a note about what you took. Chatted with the other guests and felt like we could have all just hung out there for days.

Beautiful property in a stunning location. Free parking. Absolutely delicious dinner restaurant where the staff was exceptional (thank you very much to George and Melia and our compliments to the chef!). Good breakfast. We rented the family room and it was perfect except that the mattresses were a bit too hard for our tastes. The pool is beautiful and definitely a plus. As guests you also get a free tour and wine tasting in the winery. The tour was very well done and informative and much appreciated. We will come back!

Anna who helped me check in was delightful. Super helpful and kind. The hotel is on the outskirts of town, but easy 25 min walk to the heart of Peso de Ragua. Nice pool area although pool towels cost €2. Excellent breakfast with plenty of options.

I was able to check in a bit earlier and leave my bags in my room instead of carrying them around. The staff was great, specially Ana that showed care and tried to help with finding activities and things to do in the city. The room was well-designed and cozy. The common facilities were great too. The breakfast area looked well and had plenty of option to choose from (great to see milk alternatives ) There's a great path that leads you to a pool area (you may be able to use the pool depending on the month) where you can get some sun, read, study, eat, drink and talk.

The whole experience from Check in was excellent, we booked the double room and it suited our needs. Very comfy bed and excellent bedding. The pool was a welcomed addition and we used it both days. Breakfast is plentiful and of a great quality. Staff constantly refill platters so there is plenty. We found the staff member to go above and beyond for us, booking a wine tour and sorting out a taxi, she also recommended places to visit and restaurants. We were able to park directly outside the hotel and easily found a space each time we returned. A fantastic stay.

The building has been beautifully restored and the room is full of character and charm. The pool area is lovely, and there is an Intermarche with easy access next door - we also parked the car there. Anna that checked us in and looked after us was absolutely lovely. The whole building is decorated with beautiful and interesting touches - I will stay here again for sure :)

The rooms were very thoughtfully laid out for their size. We had a lovely view. The beds were comfy, the pool area was relaxing and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Lots of reviews say it is too far, but it’s only a 20 min walk along the river which is nice post dinner in town.

This hostel was a very, very good one, I really liked everything: the dorms, the kitchen, the inside salon, the outside place - and also, there was a swing - amazing. Also, the people working there are the best, they always are there to help you in whatever you want. I am an Erasmus student and they helped me find an accommodation for the semester. Vey kind, thank you!

The service was clear-cut and helpeful for my check-in. I was able to make the most of my accommodation and was surprised to the loneliness of the apartment and the centrality of the hostel to the downtown area. The bathroom in my "shared-room" (lonely stay) was beautiful.

It felt like home. We enjoyed using the kitchen and sitting in the comfortable environment both outside and inside. The decor was interesting with old photographs of Vila Real. We enjoyed the location close to the center of town. The staff was great, and it is an excellent value.

Everything. Great location. Safe and super comfortable - curtains, chargers, light in bed, duvet and extra blankets. Super clean and spacious bathroom. One of the best hostels ive been in. Friendly staff. Stored my luggage. Helped me with anything I needed.

Highly recommend the place, it was great. The owner was very nice. The room was clean. whole place is beautifully designed, there's an excellent kitchen and a lovely place out side with a comfortable place to sit.

The owner, Luis, was really friendly and welcoming. During our check in he helped us to plan our itinerary for our stay and we followed his recommendations for which roads/routes to take and they were brilliant, so greatly appreciated. The wine tasting was full of detail and the food was fresh and filling. The vineyard itself was very picturesque and even had a plunge pool where you could refresh yourself!

It was a very unique experience to stay in a working winery. The property and surrounding grounds were stunning and the host was extremely accommodating. My children were able to explore the property on their own and had a great experience. The pool was a huge bonus as it was extremely hot the day we where there. I can't say enough about how wonderful the host was. I recommend the dinner with wine tasting, great food wind and company. A full breakfast on our terrace was an amazing way to end our stay.

This place is a piece of paradise. The tranquility of the vineyards is amazing. The place even has a small pool to refresh in the summer. We enjoyed just sitting on our balcony looking at the vineyards. The dinner experience with wine tasting is also great, we’ve learned so much and tasted some great wines from the grapes grown in the vineyards. Absolutely recommended!

Very nice place to spend some vacation days. Personel is very polite and will do everything for you. They serve a splendid breakfast either inside or in the garden. We enjoyed the outdoor swimming pool and the nice view over the wine fields. You can apply for a delicious dinner every evening along with their own wines at a very acceptable cost.

This is a fabulous working farm in a beautiful area of mountainous vineyards with a lovely garden and refreshing pool to dip in. Luis is a perfect host with delightful helpers. I highly recommend his dinner with wine tasting. It was delicious, and we learned a lot about the Douro region and its wines. I hope I can return someday.

The room was spacious and very modern. The space was very calm and relaxing just what you want for a holiday with local amenities close by. Didn’t try the spa as the weather was good enough to keep us outside enjoying the outdoor pool. A lot of available and discreet car park.

It's clearly modelled on a Spa, but we just wanted a hotel. So it was fun. Food was really good. The pool was excellent. Others have commented on the weak signage on the road in, but we were prepared and it was fine.

The hotel is located in a quiet and beautiful spot The staff was friendly and helpful The room was spotless clean and comfortable Delicious breakfast Free parking There is a nice swimming pool on site

Great hotel with lovely staff. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool was great at the end of a long day.

The vineyard was located high on the hill near the village of Mesão Frio, with an open vista of the Douro Valley. The environment is tranquil and natural, surrounded by plantations and with a swimming pool to take dips in the hot summer weather. The owners/staff were fantastic, especially Senhor Carlos who was friendly, humble, and happy to help with anything.

The place is incredible. In the middle of the hill, surrounded by wine yards and you see the Douro valley. And you could enjoy all this from the pool or jacuzzi

The location is great. Wonderful View. Confortable pool. Easy parking. Clean bedroom.

The host was very nice and kind. He made his best to make us comfortable. He prepared delicious breakfast. Too bad we couldn't eat all of it before the race. The rooms and bathroom were very modern and clean. Plenty of space for parking and we even had a dip in the swimming pool after the race.

Such a beautiful location, views from the veranda are exquisite, there is a beautiful pool but we didn’t get to use it.

The park is very calm, in a remote place, so good to relax. The SPA is very good, the interior pool is great. The tree house is very nice.

We had a wonderful off-season two-night stay in a treehouse at Pedras Salgadas. While not all activities are available year-round, we filled our days with exploring the historic grounds, ‘taking the waters’ at the Spa, excursions to area sites, and eating. The food (two breakfasts, one long leisurely dinner) was uniformly excellent; prepared expertly with local, season ingredients. The service across the property was friendly and professional - everyone went out of their way to welcome us to the region and go the extra mile. We spent much of our stay thinking of when we might return - and who we would bring with us!

Hotel fantástico, inserido no parque das Pedras Salgadas , casas rodeadas de pura natureza. Nível de conforto excelente, pequeno almoço e jantar muito bom. Funcionários muito prestáveis, apenas na recepção poderiam ser um pouco mais acolhedores e dar uma melhor explicação sobre o parque. Tem bicicletas para dar passeios no parque o que é muito agradável. Foi uma experiência fantástica, pena ter sido só uma noite. Vamos voltar.

Treehouses were so unique to stay in! It was off-season, but it was perfectly relaxing and quiet for our 1 night stay. We were the only diners at dinner, so we thought there would only be a "skeleton crew" working but the quality of food and service was excellent. One of the highlights of our 6 day Portugal road trip!

Foi uma agradável estadia, o restaurante do hotel poderia melhorar. Preço/qualidade não corresponde. Não têm qualquer animação, sendo verão deveria ter música ao vivo ou outra animação. Poderia melhorar bastante, sendo o valor da estadia elevado a oferta poderia ser maior.

Quinta da Pousada was an absolute delight from start to finish. Antonio welcomed us personally and gave us a warm tour of the property, setting the tone for a stay where the attention to detail is truly next-level - everything feels close to perfection. Our room was spotless and cozy, with a genuinely comfortable mattress and pillows, a proper coffee maker, and more than enough fresh towels. After hot days exploring the Douro Valley, the swimming pools were a blissful cooldown. A standout highlight was the Port wine tasting led by Antonio himself: not a generic lineup, but beautifully aged, high-quality Ports made at the Quinta, including a remarkable 1959 that we’re still talking about. Dinner and breakfast were equally impressive: hearty, home-style dishes rooted in local recipes and produce, served with care. We left feeling pampered, well-fed, and completely at ease. Couldn’t recommend Quinta da Pousada more! Thank you, Antonio, for a stay we’ll happily repeat!

Everything was great, a beautiful and clean room with nice views of the vineyards down the valley. You have everything you need.This place is very calm and relaxing with excellent areas to rest and a nice swimming pool. Antonio is just amazing host who will share a lot of information about Port wines. We had a port tasting with him and it was amazing and very educational. You also get to taste very old ports; definitely a great experience and great memories! Breakfast and dinner are also delicious.Thank you very much much. We really forgot about time and enjoyed the moment.

INCREDIBLE stay with an incredible view and extremely friendly staff. We loved waking up to the breathtaking vista across the valley with the terraced vineyards, really very special. The pool and chillout areas were great, we made full use of them. The port tasting was also really cool, getting to taste small batch port from the owner's private stores. Way better than the more commercial tastings in big port houses. Breakfast was good, and the two dinners we ate at the hotel were also really nice and decent value. Overall, a great stay and we'd love to come back.

I usually don't like to use superlatives but I'm not exaggerating when I say that this Quinta was the best accomodation I had in my life so far. My room was superb, the breakfast and lunch tasted amazing, the staff was extremly friendly, helpful and respectful. Most of them speak english very well or even perfectly. The location is picturesque and relaxed, you can enjoy an amazing view over the surrounding wineyards from the balcony or the terrace. There is a swimming pool and there are a lot of hiking opportunities in the area. Perfect place to stay!

The Pousada is very nice, beautiful rooms with nice views of the vineyards down the valley. There are nice areas to rest with hammocks and loungers and a nice swimming pool. Antonio is a great host that will share a lot of information about Port wines. We had the optional wine ame Port tasting with him and it was superb! Much more interesting and personal than the tours of the large adegas. You also get to taste very old ports; definitely a great experience and great memories!

The venue is located in a rural area, which is what we wanted. The surrounding area is beautiful and very peaceful. I am a light sleeper, so really appreciated the fact that there was no noise at night. The room was a good size, and the bed and pillows comfy. The shower was excellent, and the room had tea and coffee making facilities. It also had a balcony overlooking a river, and a hammock ! The communal areas are large. The main area had a large tv, lots of seating, an open fire (during winter), great Wi-Fi and 4g reception. There is also a small swimming pool - well maintained, a free pool table, and hot and cold drinks available (including wine and beer) which you can purchase. The rooms also had air conditioning. The breakfasts were excellent. This is a family run place, and the family and staff were fabulous. They are very proud of their locality, and will provide you with any information that you need to make the most of your stay.

Hotel Rural Misarela was one of our trip's highlights. It is a renovated, small, cosy hotel, located at the edge of the park. The rooms are lovely and have a porch with a hammock overlooking the view. There is a large, comfortable living room, shared by the guests, with sofas, a coffee machine, pool room, many books and board games. There are also bicycles the guests can use. The breakfast was excellent and very generous. But most of all, the staff! Bernardo who owns the place with his father was super helpful, gave us great tips for hiking trails. His father was extremely nice and gave us recommendations for near by restaurants. Another very nice and helpful young woman (unfortunately I don't know her name) was very helpful, pleseant and patient with all our questions. Highly recommended!

Very quiet location with a greater to the mountains and river. Pet allowed hotel, so we have taken our dog first time in a trip. We were very happy to spend several days at this wonderful place. The breakfasts were very good with a lot of fruits, cakes, different kinds of ham, bread and cheese. The room was clean. Nice and warm swim of pool. The stuff was very polite. Around the hotter there are a lot of trees. -apple, pear, figs, plum. So we spent a great time with kids and dog at this hotel.

It is a wonderful Hotel, really clean, really comfortable. The swimming-pool is very good and beautiful. The landscape it's amazing, and the Hotel is surrounded by Nature. Everyone is nice and the breakfast is delicious. A Hotel to return for sure.

I really enjoyed my stay! The room was fantastic, with a balcony. The balcony had a swing bed perfect for relaxing. The pool is exquisite! All staff is nice and helpful. Highly recommended!

We recently spent a few days at this beautiful, family-run guesthouse in the Douro Valley and it was everything we had hoped for – a real escape from the city to the quiet, peaceful countryside. Surrounded by stunning views and gorgeous pools, it was the perfect spot to unwind. There’s not much to do in the evenings other than head into the nearby town for dinner, which suited us perfectly – we were after some proper downtime. Breakfast was a real highlight each morning – fresh, local, and prepared by the host herself. We stayed in the renovated old building rather than one of the newer, modern units by the infinity pool, and we’re so glad we did. The apartment was absolutely gorgeous – spacious, full of charm and character, with a lovely big bath as the centrepiece and refreshing aircon throughout. It really felt like our own private retreat. The guesthouse itself is separate from the family home and feels more like a self-contained house, complete with a beautifully decorated sitting room, a breakfast room, and a huge terrace where we enjoyed our breakfast each morning. One of the highlights of the stay was the tour of the family vineyard, led by the host’s brother. It was clear he was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about winemaking – a lovely, personal touch that made our stay feel even more special. All in all, a very personal and peaceful experience in the heart of the Douro. We’d happily return.

Excellent communication and a very friendly host. She made us feel right at home, from the second that we arrived up till the moment we left. Magnificent views both from the room and pool area. The pool is well kept and is never too busy. The breakfast has all you need with a variety of breakfast foods. Everything is fresh and tasty and the host even made us scrambled eggs to accompany the buffet food. Also highly recommend the onsite wine tour of the GUEDA winery. Margarida’s brother is very knowledgable about the wines and he gives the tour himself.

The bungalow Apartment is amazing. The pool overlooks the vineyards and is just below your balcony with the same view of sunsets. The tasting is just a walk up a few steps and you can walk several paths in the area. Breakfast is not included if the 3 rooms in the main house are booked so plan accordingly. Marguerida gave me a small box of milk so I could make coffee in the morning. Once here you will never want to leave so I agree with the 2 night minimum stay so you can do the wine route which involves narrow winding roads. Make sure you do a full tasting here with Luis. Gueda vineyards has been operating for hundreds of years so you are supporting a small family and local workers and their families in this beautiful part of the world. Several wines are also available in the apartment to purchase. We know others were rushing to do 3 tastings in a day but when you stay here one is enough. Take a break and slow down here.

Margarida, the host. she is gracious, knowledgeable both of her families history of the property as well as suggestions of what to do in the region. The breakfasts were hardy and delicious highlighted by the best scrambled eggs this side of heaven! Homemade cakes and jams, local meats, cheeses, fresh fruit, breads. Then the sweet pool to dip in on a warm afternoon. Loved the eagles eye views of the valley with patchwork of vineyards. Her Brother Luis, vintner, provides a self guided and remarkable tour through his vineyard followed by a wine tasting accompanied by local cheese, meat, bread olive oil. Comfortable and spotless lodging. She was willing to accommodate our requests. her sense of humor and positive nature was a delight.

Exceptional. Our stay at Casa do Romezal was a highlight of our 3 weeks in Portugal. The view from the Casa (and the pool!) was breathtaking. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, with an assortment of homemade goods. But what really made the experience special was meeting Margarida and Luis, the brother and sister who have devoted themselves to the Casa and the vineyards as a way of honouring their father's legacy. Margarida was a warm and friendly host who made us feel very much at home, while Luis shared his vast knowledge of the Port industry as part of our Port & wine tasting. We felt priviledged to be able to walk in their vineyards.

This is a truly amazing location to stay with phenomenal views over the Douro valley. Hotel is 3 bedrooms with an amazing personal touch to the stay from Marco, Anna and their staff who arranged dinner for us on the first night, checked in on multiple occasions on how were doing, booked a boat trip for us and made multiple other suggestions including which wineries to visit. Room was lovely, extremely comfortable bed, amazing view, good bathroom etc etc. Great area outside to sun yourself and comfy loungers and a nice plunge pool to cool off in. We ate in the restaurant at the property on the 2nd evening and had an excellent meal with very good wine recommendations.

Casa do Arco is a memorable place located 5 minutes away from the town of Pinhão (by the Douro river), that I'd 100% recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful yet luxurious place to relax and enjoy the sights. The house is located on a hill, with magnific views towards the Douro valley, and possesses only 3 rooms, providing that intimate and private feeling. The house is perfectly architectured, with slight resemblances to alpine wooden chalets. The room provides panoramic views towards the valley (river included). All room components are of top quality and the bed is super comfortable. The outside space provides the perfect spot for relaxation, while enjoying the views and drinking a glass of Port wine. It also offers a small swimming pool. I'd also strongly suggest anyone who stays in Casa do Arco to book a table at the restaurant at least once. The dinner was superb, and please do choose the Vaca Gallega (matured beef steak). It was one of the best meat meals I ever had in my entire life. The owner and collaborators will go the extra mile to provide you the best stay possible, and I can only say that we will definitely be going back to Casa do Arco when we visit the Douro Valley in the near future.

Small hotel the location is beautiful with a fantastic view over Pinhão and the Douro. the rooms are compact but fonctionnel and quite beautiful with unique decoration. the hotel restaurant has a limited menu but is top notch my only complain there is that breakfast is a bit light for people like me who enjoy a substantial breakfast. we initially had trouble getting in touch with the owner through email but upon arrival they told us to use their WhatsApp and contact was much more effective then. The owner knows a lot about wine and the region ne can provide good recommandation for us it was just a little too late to help with our planning but in any other circonstances it would have been a previous help. facilities at the hotel are rather limited since it’s a small hotel they have a small pool that we didn’t use. landscaping can be improved a little bit. other then that our stay at Casa do Acro was fantastic and I strongly recommend it.

Arco is roughly a 10 minute drive from Pinhao which is basically a working wine town. Not much to recommend in the town, not even the local grocery store staff seemed to like tourists. However, we loved Casa do Arco, the building which is basically a box shape on 3 levels is modern and all class. Someone had some great vision in designing this place. Design and building construction looked to be well executed with lovely common areas, great breakfasts and a wonderful dinner on the first night. Make sure you book ahead for a memorable dinner, excellent food and wine. The views down into the valley were wonderful and even though it is above a road, it was surprisingly quiet. The above ground pool was on the small side, but is was refreshing in 35C heat. Very relaxing under some olive tress I think, peaceful. Good security as well.

We have traveled extensively in Europe and visited many beautiful places. Casa do Arco left us speechless. The location is truly stunning, the rooms are spacious, immaculately clean, peaceful, and well-appointed. The pool and house amenities added to our comfort. Breakfast was wonderfully prepared, and the staff is so kind! Dinner is simply unmissable! It is a dining experience you will never forget. Marco and Ana are warm, approachable, and truly guest focused. You can reach town in a few minutes for any necessities. and we were able to catch a river cruise and winery tour. This is an absolute MUST BOOK.

We had a wonderful stay at Morgadio do Calcada. It has been the highlight of our trip to Portugal - and there were already so many impressive moments! The property is a manor house at the edge of Provesendes run by the 18th generation of the household. The lodge is in a newly renovated part across the courtyard from the main house, surrounded by vineyards and a citrus grove. The rooms are modern with a very spacious bathroom. The owner, Manuel, is amazingly warm. He hosted the dinner the night we dined there and shared a lot of insight on his family and the range of wines he produces from his old vines. The reserved red was stunning, so was his white port. His staff is also very friendly and knowledgeable. The village itself is UNESCO heritage protected - charming, walkable, and probably has not changed for 500 years. The church bell still rings to tell the villagers time, and a small bakery opens for a few hours in the morning to supply the village with bread. There is a cafe, a restaurant, and a bar. But the laid-back lifestyle means they may or may not be open when you arrive... You must have dinner there one of the nights. Also, if you get a chance to tour the main house, do it. It's like going back in time...

This was a beautiful place to stay. The room, the vineyards, living and dining area and outdoor spaces were all lovely and peaceful. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Unfortunately, we were not able to experience the dinner service as we arrived on a Sunday and this is the day off for the chef. Our host, Manuel, was very helpful and gave us a history of the estate as well as local information and recommendations. One thing we were not aware of was that our arrival was the same day as a local holiday celebration. The festivities included a concert and fireworks just down the road which made it a bit difficult to sleep, so perhaps be aware of this holiday if traveling through Provesende in mid June. We only stayed for one night, but wish we could've stayed to experience more at Morgadio da Calçada.

Amazing stay at this family run vineyard. It’s hard to describe what a wonderful, special place this is. The rooms are modern and thoughtfully designed with a comfy bed. The owners are incredible hosts and we had delicious breakfasts every day. We also had a wonderful dinner one night. The location is about 20 minute drive from Pinhao up one of the most scenic drives in the area. It is up a winding road, high up in the hills but it really is worth the drive. At the owners suggestion we did the 2 hour walk down to Pinhao and it was some of the most incredible scenery we’ve seen walking through vineyards. We visited vineyards and took a taxi back. The owner also makes delicious wines and port. Stay here, for an incredible experience.

We were so surprised by what was hiding behind the entrance door to this stay. A non descript metal door opened onto the cutest gravel courtyard and beyond that a lovely vineyard. Staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. We decided last minute to join other guests for dinner and a wine pairing. My gluten free diet was accommodated and the food was amazing. But more so was the experience of touring the historical family home and dining by candlelight. Hearing all about the wine from the owner/wine maker was the cherry on top. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal.

This vineyard or Quinta as it's called in the Douro Valley is an excellent place to stay if you're touring this area. We like it's proximity to Pinhao and touring the various nearby vineyards. We enjoyed the dinner and wine tasting offered at Morgadio de Calcada. The friendliness of the hotel staff, specially the owner, Manuel, is greatly appreciated. We also like the company of the dog, Pita, who is always around the yard, welcoming newcomers and bidding us goodbye when we left. A truly unforgettable experience for us. Highly recommended.

What a great find. This is such a superb location just 150m from the main centre. My room was at the top but the stairs are easy and I had a lot of luggage. The rooms are very clean and the ac works well hot and cold. The water was hot, the WiFi fast 32 down and 15 up), plus the host very responsive and helpful on WhatsApp. My bed was very comfortable. The room had a kitchenette which was useful to me for the fridge, otherwise I didn’t use it but I looked in the cupboards and everything you might need seemed to be both there and clean. It was good value and I would recommend it.

Host and his mother were very kind to me. I was at the wrong door, and of course, instructions did not work. Host very nice, send his mother to look for me and help me. The place was very clean and beautiful with a lot of exstras like water , soap etc. Bed large and comfortable with good bedding. Location can not be better. Thank you

I like each & everything from the beginning. First of all, the location was perfect, then liked their facilities over there. Everything was neat and clean. I didn't need to talk them for even once. Whatever I needed, everything was there. I would recommend to everyone to go there. Thanks

I liked the place because it is quiet and especially the room is very very clean. I advise you to book and if I visit again I will book without hesitation.

No check-in at front desk, no checkout at desk. All done on a single step. Front door open by code and room door also open by a code.

Property is lovely, unique little place, very clean and I loved the deep storage in the cupboards without doors, helped unpack and pack and atore easily. Verandah was nice and the sun hits early in the morning so nice to sit out there! The pool is also a nice touch, but is small and a framed pool.

It is an easy walk, just slightly uphill from the town (1/2 mile.) So easy as I am a solo female traveler. I was there for three nights. It has a pool and they serve breakfast every morning It was perfect as the main road in town is busy with cars and buses. It’s small, clean and Emilia is the perfect hostess and if you can do the tour with Bruno (her son) of the family vineyard, it is the best one I enjoyed! And I been to over 7 of them!! It is called Quinta de Santo António!

Lovely room with a good balcony which had lovely views over the mountains and Douro river, breakfast was really good with lots of choice, host was very helpful and very friendly , there was a swimming pool at the top of the property with stunning views over Pinhao and the Douro which was accessible by a steep rustic path, property is just outside of Pinhao which was an extremely busy town but within easy walking distance , parking available on site, property close to restaurants, we preferred Cais da Foz as staff very friendly and food was excellent

Everything at the B&B was perfect - Modern, clean & spacious rooms. A great balcony with fantastic views. The same for the pool area. Excellent breakfast. Above all the hosts were exceptional. Make sure you do the wine tasting opportunity which includes the vineyard tour, as this was another highlight of our stay. Their wine is an excellent example of the region. Book in advance! The passion of João and his family in building on the history of the property to create this fantastic business is nothing short of amazing. Congratulations to all involved.

Clean, quiet, 15 mins walk to train station. Many restaurants within 5-15mins walk. Breakfast area and pool have a gorgeous view of Pinhao. Bruno, the host was very friendly and easy to communicate with. We took a wine tasting tour with Bruno, he showed us his winery, its history, explained the different process between red and white wine. Big thank you to Bruno, his wife and mom for the hospitality, friendship that made our stay at Dois Lagares a memorable one.

Staff were very friendly and gave great recommendation of things to do in the area. Our room was large with a very comfortable bed, lots of hot water in the shower, awesome places to relax in the garden, pool and deck areas. We so enjoyed the breakfast and one night we did the 3 course dinner and wine experience, delicious and a fun night. Would highly recommend a stay here.

A lovely house and owners. Lovely garden and pool. The dinner on the first night was really good and we had tastes of different wines for different courses. I mentioned that I didn't eat meat so the menu took that into consideration, which I appreciated. The house is right in the beautiful and interesting village so we could stroll around.

Absolutely everything. The spacious room with view, the lovely property with pool, terrace and garden, the wonderful dinner with other guests on the terrace, the hosts. The drive up the mountain to Provesende is spectacular.

Amazing view, lovely garden and Terraces, nice Pool, nice Breakfast, delicious Dinner with Wine tasting, very warm, kind and welcoming hosts, Thank you again Jet & Ronald for an amazing stay

Great room in historic house with lovely grounds and a nice little swimming pool.
