Rooms are super comfortable, the staff is very nice, and the view is superb. The location is perfect to explore the valley during the day, and be back still in time to enjoy the pool in the afternoon.
Nothing about the hotel or the facilities in specific, but we considered the price of the restaurant a bit high for what was been offered.

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.
Rooms we stayed in showed a little wear and tear and needed more detail regarding requirements for swim caps and slippers in pool and sauna areas

The views were beautiful and we loved walking through a vineyard. The food was delicious. It was relaxing.
Google Maps failed us. It was very hard for us to get there. The narrow roads and fast drivers were intimidating. There was no where to go unless you drove… the pretty little town right beside the resort didn’t even have a coffee shop.

Beautiful property, well kept with exceptional grounds and views. Great breakfast included with room, and restaurant for dinner was a nice option which we took advantage of when too tired to travel to town. Beautiful big pool.
Room was far from reception (five sets of stairs or two elevators and two long halls). Could have used a trolley for luggage or someone to help carry it.

Beautiful location and surroundings. Great for couples and romantic getaways. Breakfast was good.
Not a 5-star hotel. More like 4-star. A few minor details were missing to be a 5-star. Nothing annoying, but the small flaws can’t happen at a 5-star.

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
When you’re cycling the hill up to the hotel is a tough finish to the day !!

Location, mountain view.
The location of the shower/bathtub and the pool wasn’t working the first day. Indoor pool required bathing caps and we were not aware or offered any free of charge as the outdoor pool was not available as advertised.

The hotel is in a beautiful estate with a lovely view over the vineyard. The old house is very nicely restored, and the room was large and comfortable. The indoor and outdoor swimming pools are very good. The staff was polite and attentive.
I dislike the concept of bathroom open to the bedroom. The Spa is simple, the sauna was not very hot and the steam bath was not working half the time. The restaurant is ok, I would expect better for the region and the level of the hotel.

Really liked the pool, welcome drink and the hotel itself is beautiful. The hotel is very relaxing and the rooms are really lovely.
There seemed to be different menus for different people. We also were not greeted at reception and no information was given. The hotel is clean but it could do with a clean in the fridges etc.
