Cool building. Skip the restaurant.
Nice old building, great location. Rooms were in a very traditional style which l liked. Food was awful, restaurant has photos online show fine dining. We were the only guests so maybe the chef was off but 20 euros for 2 dry chicken drum sticks with chips and a luke warm cabbage soup was fairly unreasonable.

Beautiful secluded propert right on the river. We stayed in the apartment on the property that is an old stone house and was so cute! We opted to stay for dinner which was outside on the patio by the river and was delicious and relaxing. And breakfast was lovely as well. My kids enjoyed the pool, tennis courts and pool and fuse ball tables.

We had difficulties in finding it as it was dark and we missed the turning a couple of times. However the location is gorgeous and the breakfast was good. There was no soap or hairdryer so make sure you bring your own. A good overnight stay.

Stayed in the apartment
Hotel is in a magical spot on the Duoro river edge - even has its own river beach. Can’t review rooms but stayed in apartment and it was a lovely area for the children but the kitchen was poorly equipped (no kettle, no oven mit, no colinder etc) and it was dirty. The overall service is very friendly but poor - you can never find anyone and they don’t speak English! The owners are around (shouting at each other often) but are super unfriendly and their dog barks a lot even at night. The pool is excellent near the river but no shallow end for kids and they had an unfilled Jacuzzi which my son fell into one day. The food is like home cooked meals and cost 22 euros per person. The wine is very bitter and thin. The boat ride they offer is nice but the boat is in need of repair. The beds were uncomfortable. The grounds the hotel is on are magical but there is an open aqauduct running through the property with untreated water and open ponds so for families of young kids it is challenging. There is a steep narrow staircase inside the apartment so not for the elderly or young children. The bedroom set up is a king upstairs and then 2 rooms downstairs so not ideal to separate a young family.

We were early in the season and the only guests staying in Country Estate Villa. Lovely old estate, clean breakfast good. Gabriella amazing, only draw back was the rooms were cold and running water took sometime to warm up.. We could see the hotel would be best booked between say April - October,

Rural charm.
We had a great visit for 3 nights. The hotel is a long up and down hill 1 km walk from the train station so take a 4 Euro taxi. Once there, you will find a fine old quinta and wine estate with pool, great views, and good home-cooked food. Big beds but firm. No entertainment and nothing to visit unless you board the train again for day trips to Regua, Pinhão or Artiegos. Car would be better but we did well without. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Very relaxing stay.

The best stay in the Douro River Valley.
The estate is exceptional. The view of the Douro river, The Valley and the surroundings breathtaking. We were treated by the owners and staff like family and everything about this place was spectacular, including the boat cruise and visit to their own winery. The food and their own wine were amazing. We can't wait to come back with family and friends. We've travelled a lot for 25 years, but this place has made the number one in our list. We love it and will never forget our stay there.

Perfect base for exploring the Douro Valley
This is a wonderfully historic 19th century Quinta tucked in a corner along the Douro River. The Quinta feels completely removed from the outside world, but is easily accessible by train. It made a perfect base for exploring the Douro valley. The house and grounds are exceptionally beautiful. The food, much of which comes from the farm, was fresh and delicious - the best food I ate during my stay in Portugal. Some of the people working here spoke English, others spoke French, and everyone was warm and welcoming no matter what languages they spoke. A real gem. Hard to imagine a more beautiful and relaxing place to stay in Portugal.

Relaxing stay
Amazing place to spend some days in nature. Can be easily reached by train from Porto so there is no need of the car. If you do so, walk by the rails on the right side from the station and after a bridge enter into the property by the gate. Breakfast and dinner with the view of the Douro valley was spectacular. Try house wine done by the property owner, only 5 euro bottle. Dinners were highly based on chicken, so if you prefer other food, better you bring your own. In the village in only small bar and some restaurant which did not seem like working. Make sure to walk within the property as you will find some natural water cascade which is lovely. We would suggest to visit the property during the week as Saturday, Sunday can be full because of locals having launch/celebration. Swimming pool is a great plus during the hot days. Communication with owners was correct.

Really great place, but hard to drive to.
Really, really great place to stay, but very hard to find. Our US GPS was useless. We arrived after midnight. The hotel's Hotel.com prepaid reservation apparently cancelled and they were booked full. The staff scurried to keep us happy and they honored our reservation anyway. Those were the only drawbacks to a wonderful experience and I think the problem was with the Hotel.com app rather than the Hotel.Take the tour of the grounds. Oh, the Douro River Train stops at the hotel door. I wish I had known that.

Prachtige locatie aan de Douro.
Familie Quinta met veel originele details die deels de sfeer maken en deels ook gewoon oud zijn. Wij triffen wat slechter weer en dan is het niet ecen aangenaam. Met name met lekker weer, als eten buiten kan gebeuren is het denk ik niet te overtreffen
