Overall, this was good. But some comments: Advertised as Adults only. It wasn’t. That does not mean the children who were around were a problem - they were not. We suspect the hotel has been modernised. And reasonably well too. But nowhere in the bathroom to hang towels, no fridge, no tea/coffee facilities. But the staff were also very helpful (even though very little English was actually spoken despite being advertised). But we got through with their helpfulness.

It was excellent! Nice people, we really loved, specially the breakfast. The only negative thing was the hair dryer that wasn’t working. But over all we would recommend and definitely would return. Nice people, great food and confy + clean.

One night stay
Hotel very friendly, room comfortable. Very hood breakfast. Only downside was no hot water in the morning which may have been due to a large group staying at the hotel.

Très belle surprise !!!
Quel accueil ! Le personnel a été aux petits soins et l'hôtel en fin de rénovation est parfaitement équipé... Les extérieurs sont vraiment agréables : d'ailleurs c'est dommage que les repas ne puissent pas être pris en terrasse... Excellent rapport qualité-prix / Une très belle surprise !!!

UN HÔTEL A NE PAS RATER
nous recommandons vivement cet établissement. nous y avons séjournes trois jours, les propriétaires ainsi que le personnel sont très accueillant, serviable et disponible. Les chambres comme le restaurant sont de grandes qualités. un grand merci à nos hôtes, nous envisageons déjà d'y revenir. De plus l'hôtel est très bien situé au cœur d'une région à visiter, de très jolis villages de la vallée du Douro. Merci et à bientôt.

Desilusão
Fiquei desiludido com o hotel, uma vez que a pontuação do mesmo era elevada. Um pequeno almoço, sem jeito nenhum. Nunca tal coisa tinha verificado. Demasiado pobre para o preço do mesmo
