"Everything was excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were exceptionally friendly and professional. The food at both restaurants (breakfast and dinner) was of high quality and very flavorful."
"Klein, fein und mit traumhafter Aussicht
Wir haben kürzlich in diesem neu eröffneten Boutique-Hotel übernachtet und waren rundum begeistert. Das Hotel ist klein, aber sehr stilvoll eingerichtet – mit viel Liebe zum Detail und in einem gepflegten, modernen Ambiente. Alles war absolut sauber und gut in Schuss.
Besonders hervorzuheben ist die hervorragende Lage auf der Gaia-Seite des Flusses – direkt neben der berühmten Luis-I-Brücke. Von hier aus hat man einen atemberaubenden Blick über den Douro...
"This last minute unplanned stay turned out to be amazing! Great staff, beautiful grounds, fantastic room, we even had the privilege to attend an impromptu musical performance during our breakfast which made our stay that much more memorable!"
"Beautiful property with a great wine tour. Breakfast was delicious as well and it had a nice bar. There are wild peacocks and pea hens running around and the spa has some unusual treatments. Loved this stay!"
"Beautiful renovated property inside while maintaining the rustic charm of the stone houses that are so traditional in this part of Portugal:) beautiful views overlooking the Douro valley . Right in the center of town and walkable for restaurants :) very friendly staff "
"Gostaria de realçar o positivo e a boa impressao que ficou do empreendimento.
O staff super simpático e atencioso, mesmo com o nervosismo mal escondido.
Nota menos positiva só mesmo o tempo no check-in, demorado a meu ver (com reserva efetuada), e o numero reduzido de espreguiçadeiras na zona da piscina, o que levou a alguns clientes terem de ficar na relva (solução menos ma), nas cadeiras das mesas de bar (retirando-as dessas mesmas mesas) ou no chao duro (bastante desconfortável)....

"Having a view of the Douro was beautiful. Our room was quiet, roomy and a fridge w/ kitchenette! Loved the shower. The front desk staff was great to deal w/. We were early and they were able to let us in our room. It wasn’t the room we booked but Miss Rita was able to change it for us. That was really nice of her. Thank you for our stay!"
"Minimalistic 10x. Only a wooden box for a room. 8x8 room. All amenities are within the hotel but not in room. Great concept. Fun stay. They have a rooftop lounge and terrace. Water tank “pool” and cool restaurant and bar downstairs. Old bank converted to hotel. Cool vibes. "
"This is an excellent choice and a fantastic place to stay. Conveniently located—just a 5-minute walk to main roads—yet peacefully tucked away from the city noise. The building is outstanding, with impressive interiors and a superb hotel experience overall. The staff are truly amazing and wonderfully attentive. Breakfast is excellent, though it could be further improved by offering more healthy options, especially a wider selection of fresh fruits."
"Easy access to waterfront and Dom Luis bridge, World of Sardines, etc.
There are lots of restaurants on water front but they seem like average tourist traps. Hotel food was pretty good so we had lunch there a couple of times. Staff super friendly, rooms were perfect! "
"Our stay at this property was lovely, staff were kind, friendly and helpful. The breakfast is fantastic and make sure to take some time to have dinner or cocktails at the restaurant. The rooms was very comfortable and the pool/ spa is lovely. We would highly recommend this property for its amenities and the excellent service!"
