9.8/10 Exceptional! (44 reviews)
Great small boutique hotel with plenty of friendly staff.
The room was gorgeous and huge with a bathtub view on the Douro. A little bit of road noise but nothing earplugs don’t fix. The bed was massive and very comfortable. Adding a full size mirror would be good for checking a fit before leaving the room.
Service was above and beyond, with a tour of the property, welcome drink, bags taken to the room and a turndown service. Ines at breakfast was very friendly.
The breakfast is good although the concept of a tasting menu for breakfast is a little odd and ordering à la carte would be better in our opinion.
This is the second Torel property we stayed in and will continue to seek it as a gauge of quality in Portugal.
