This hotel has to be one of the most beautiful I’ve ever stayed in. The room was big and luxurious, and the pool was one of the most gorgeous I’ve ever seen. Plus it’s open a generous 24 hours. Staff were very helpful and the restaurant food was delicious. I’m so glad I decided to stay two nights instead of one. Highly recommend! This place is worth every penny!

This is by no measure a 5-star property, but a well used 4-star facility. The upkeep is not really up to par, with mold in the bathroom, bathroom doors peeling severly due to water damage, stained towels etc. The breakfast is fine, but, again, not up to 4-star standards (including 5-star hotels in Portugal). The common spaces like the dining room show extensive damage due to use (and lack of maintenance?) and there's peeling paint in the hallways. However, the staff were exceedingly friendly and the price we paid in mid-May (around 150 € per night) was right for a 4-star place.

Check in was great, with a welcome glass of Port. Breakfast was perfect every morning with plenty of options and very scenic views. Room was little dated and the area itself is secluded. If you’re looking for that, than this is the spot. The highlight of the trip in Douro was the wine tour about an hour away. Beautiful area beautiful resort.

The Breakfast was very good and fresh with plenty of options. Many types of pastries, fruits alternative milks.
The front desk was very helpful and knowledgeable about the Douro Valley. The rooms had incredible views of the River. Rooms were spacious but were dated,they need a refresh. Bed was comfortable though. The area was good but you definitely need a car to see the rest of the valley and vineyards.

The location is truly stunning. The view from the top floor and pool area is so spectacular. The staff was excellent. The breakfast was top quality and so much choice. Dinner was also excellent although pricy. The spa and pools were great as well. Overall the hotel is a great spot, some of the decor felt outdated and outdoors some repairs are needed. But we were very happy with our stay.

Conflicted Views:

Positives: Stunning views, excellent pool/area, spa. Spacious suite, vg bathroom, comfy bed. Staff - courteous, helpful and professional.
Negatives: Decor - soulless/minimalistic. Restaurant/Ruby Bar - Lacking atmosphere. Food hit/miss, charcuterie boards 👌
Whole layout generally gave a sterile, isolated feeling.
Would probably need a car to get the best from this location.
Summary: Hotel doesn't really make the most of it's location, could do with the services of an interior designer to give it a more welcoming feeling, better ambience and create nicer seating areas and more aesthetically pleasing pool area.Could also provide, a customer service/concierge facilitating tours/activities directly from the hotel with third parties, a courtesy courier service to nearby train stations/villages.
A good place to chill out after a day touring but it's difficult to get past the sterile, soulless atmosphere.

A beautiful, clean hotel on the Douro Valley. Opening the balcony door in the morning, a fresh breeze greeted me, and the sound of roosters crowing in the distant mountains marked a beautiful start to the day. The room and bed were comfortable. And the breakfast was super. I'd definitely stay here again.

Not worth it

Outdated, bad food and not very nice. The terrace had a nice view but that was it. The hot tub area was depressing (no good view, didn’t feel much like a spa was basically a long swimming pool with jets) the deckchairs were uncomfortable. The long white dim corridors felt a little sad. For a 5 star spa hotel we expected much more. We ended up checking out early because it wasn’t for us. Far away from anything so be mindful there’s not much to do at the hotel. The spa treatments also were expensive for what they were. A shame really!

Not good value for money

We are paying almost EUR 200 per nights but I’m afraid the hotel doesn’t deserve that.

It feels like a dated 4* hotel, rooms are basic, breakfast is stale and doesn’t have avo, salmon or a cook-to-order egg station.

Most of the hotel looks and feels tired. Bathroom lock doesn’t work and phone in room also doesn’t work so had to call reception from my mobile. Staff are friendly, they gave us late check out which was nice.

For a spa hotel, the massage was very average.

I heard they are closing in October for renovations which makes sense, much needed.

This hotel needs a major refresh & a new interior designer. Too stark and dated with the exception of the light fixtures, which were very cool! The bed & pillows are terrible!

Booked a stay for me and my wife as a routine escape and i didn't regret it. The most exquisite views and surroundings. The Staff were impecable.
The only finger pointing I will do is some lack of maintenace. From almost broken doorknobs, elevator panels almost coming off, fissures on the walls and a hole outside on the floor at the outdoor pool leaves a sour taste to it, as it is a 5 star hotel.
Nonetheless a great experience.
Just be advised, the means of transport in the area are really scarse, and if you wish to have a nearby local dining experience you will be disappointed, as there are no nearby restaurants or even shops/supermarkets. Either you dine at the restaurant hotel, which you need previous reservation (1 Day prior) or you ask for room service, which is equally good. The bar offers lights meals as well.
Also don't forget any type of necessaire, no shops or supermarkets in the area.

Nice Hotel but not 5 stars

Nice Hotel but not 5 stars….. only 5 star room was the suite but price per night is quite expensive for what you get.
Pool is great and the view! Balcony/patio nice in the suite…. But the double deluxe room does not have balcony and the double deluxe premium room has a patio but big wall at the end and you can’t see the view, best to go for a normal double room with good view or a suite. Breakfast was a good big variety! Reception staff very good and helpful! Decoration for birthday in the room was lovely!

Delightful three night stay

We stayed three nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was on the 8th floor and was more a suite than a room. It comprised a king size bed, large couch, table for two and a bathroom. This room also had the added benefit of a private terrace/garden with river views.

Quality of fitout was of a high standard and also included were robes and slippers.

Additional facilities included in the room rate were three pools (and outdoor horizon pool, an indoor swimming pool and an indoor spa), sauna, steam room and a tennis court.

In terms of dining there is a pool bar, another bar and a restaurant as well as room service. We ate at all four areas and the food was consistently good as was the service.

We also had breakfast each day in the restaurant which had a good range of food and drink.

The staff were exceptional and friendly and made our stay enjoyable.

Overall an amazing stay.

Views are beautiful!!!

My recommendation to property: fix the elevators. A lot of the elevator buttons don’t work. Saw multiple people confused about the elevator because some buttons don’t light up.

One of my pillows had a yellow stain on it. It was clean but the stain was unpleasant. Discard it if bleach does not remove a stain.

The service at breakfast could be improved upon. They were out of a lot of items. Also, there was a massive line to get coffee. If it takes so long to get a cappuccino/latte, why not have servers offer coffee to guests instead of making that self serve as well? I actually don’t think I’ve ever gone anywhere where I had to get my on coffee during breakfast…. They were also out of coffee cups….

This hotel was a lovely part our visit to the Douro Valley. The hotel is right on the river. Note that the river is clean and warm enough for swimming during the summer if you are so inclined. There are restaurants that are OK near by. There are many wineries to visit, including Aneto Wines, which is highly recommended: www.anetowines.pt. The pool is a lovely part of visiting this hotel and includes a sweeping view of the river and valley.

We had a lovely stay in the hotel, lovely breakfast and food, but the star of the show is the location just perfect. We would definitely go back.

This hotel sits on the river, and every room has a perfect river view. The dinner menu and service was really good especially since there are limited food options in the area. Hotel offers a beautiful infinity pool that overlooks the river, but a bit too cold for me. I would recommend this hotel.

The architect was probably in a bad mood when the building was designed .. such a lovely site and the lobby and restaurant looks onto a cement roof . Views from the rooms are lovely though …

Fantastic location, with spectacular views of the river. The restaurant is great, and the food lovely. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Became very good friends with one of the employees in the hotel, a gentleman by the name of Francisco who we met in the restaurant on various nights, a great asset and ambassador to the hotel.

Not a 5 star hotel

The view from the room is impressive! However there are many services and details that doesn’t love up to a 5 star hotel. This is a 4 star hotel with a 2-3 star service. There were a few people making it a 4 star, the rest seemed to have a summer job before returning to school. 70 % of service staff didn’t speak English. We spent 6 days there, which were too many days. A long weekend would have been enough.

Hotel service, non English speakers, waiting … …. Still waiting
Menu was overall a snack menu
Restaurant was a disaster ( same as breakfast menu, which for this purpose works well, but not dinner)
Umbrellas couldn’t be used in afternoon which left the pool area horrible due to warm temperatures.

Overall, this was way to pricy for the overall experience. This hotel has so much potential, if they would invest in a proper restaurant in the 800 m2 they don’t use, and would have had proper service staff.

Excellent Douro stay

We really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is modern yet very comfortable. The view from the infinity pool was spectacular and was a nice place to unwind at the end of the day. We were also pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at the restaurant. We decided to have dinner there one night and it was one of the best meals we had on our entire trip! The breakfast buffet was also excellent. The hotel is quite remote and not too close to wineries and port houses however the train station is just 5 mins away and exploring the area by train was really easy.

small things not happy about for 5 star hotel, only 3 slippers in wardrobe which looked as though they had been used, no light blub in bed side light, only one hand towel in bathroom, no breakfast tea or milk told you only got this if you stayed on 6th floor, we had stayed in other less rated hotels in Portugal which got all these things right. When we spoke to reception they did sort the light blub left 2 large bath towels not hand towels and changed the slippers but no breakfast tea or milk.

A little hard to drive to given the narrow and curvey roads in the Douro Valley, but the hotel, location, and facilities are worth it. The rooms are large, well-appointed, and modern. The restaurant is classy and the food was good. One suggestion: don’t order the shrimp appetizer. It is over priced at 11 euros and came with only three quite small shrimp. The rest of the meal selections were fine and the wine and port was good and reasonably priced.

10 year anniversary

My wife and I had our 10 year reunion at this hotel. The setting on the river was magnificent. A wonderfully peaceful area. The food in the hotel was excellent. The hotel even arranged a special gift on the day of our anniversary to celebrate, which was a great gesture. The service was professional. The only thing I´d say is the staff can be a little bit slow as it´s a relaxed pace.

Beautiful retreat

Perfect place to relax for a few days . Everyone is very professional.
I am sure they wish they would have put in more conventional elevator buttons as the new touch technology doesn’t work well .
Also enjoy the small steep roads the the GPS tell you to go on . A guys dream !!

Spa hotel on the Douro river in Portugal

We enjoyed our stay here very much. The rooms are very comfortable, lacking only a kettle etc, so we couldn't have a hot drink in our room, but otherwise lovely, overlooking the river with spectacular views. The outdoor pool, on the rooftop, was lovely, an infinity pool overlooking the view, with plenty of sunbeds around.
We ate in on both nights, and the food was very good, well prepared and served. We were also pleasantly surprised by the price of the wines on offer. Breakfast was also very good, apart from the bacon, eggs etc, which just sat there congealing (a common fault with all hotels).
One minor irritation was that I contacted the hotel before we arrived to ask if they provided a shuttle service to or from the local railway station. They said that they couldn't collect us, but that they could provide a transfer to the station. However, when we requested this, we were told that it was not available. However, when we left the hotel by taxi, the shuttle bus was just sitting in the underground garage, so we aren't sure why they couldn't have taken us to the station.

A night on the Douro river.

The view is amazing, overlooking the Douro river. The hotel is very modern and has underground parking available. It was very quiet when I was there and there was no room service available so I grabbed a bite to eat in the bar. The menu available was limited but was fine for me.
