The apartment is clean and it has everything you need. There was a complementary bottle of wine, water and two coffee pods, which was nice. Check in and access to the building are quite simple. It's very quiet, no noise from the street. It's quite near the "Passadiços do Corgo", there's a good supermarket too within a walking distance.
Located within 2.7 mi of Mateus Palace in Vila Real, Novabila Guest house provides accommodations with free WiFi. The nearest airport is Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport, 61 mi from the accommodations.

The location was the best but you cannot go for walks - the location is best for visiting Mateus. It is outside the town.
The dining room has classical interior but what spoils it is a large tv screen blaring out programmes like in a motorway restaiurant

Breakfast was lovely!
Breakfast was lovely! All locally produced foods, eggs cheese and bread! Fresh orange juice! We had no tv in our room ( some rooms do have tv’s) but this wasn’t a big deal! Would have appreciated another mirror-in the main bedroom as the the bathroom had the only one but again we managed. I had my tablet so accessed everything I needed on that. The honesty shop sold wine beer bread and snacks at vey reasonable prices! Ginas restaurant down the road was great and very cheap

Vila Real is at the top of the mountains in the Douro Region. It has extremely beautiful views, the city is nice and it has a lot of nature around it. You have many restaurants with typical food that are cheap. If you like eating, wine and mountains it's a perfect stay.

Other than a nice central church (Sé) and half a dozen historical buildings which can be seen in a couple of hours, Vila Real is one of the least interesting cities in Portugal, with a very ugly and disordinate built environment. Most buildings from the 70's and 80's with poor design.
The 'must see' item is by far the Palácio MATEUS on the outskirts of the city (in Mateus on the South entrance to Vila Real), an architectural masterpiece and an iconic place full of history and a beatiful setting.

One of Portugal's nicest regions, close to the fantastic Douro Valley and thus to lots of interesting wineries, but also far enough away from that valley so as to have good road connections (the Douro Valley is all winding secondary or tertiary roads, and it takes forever to drive any given distance). Finally, super-close to the charming Mateus Palace.
Firstly, if you are going to the Douro Valley, stop in Vila Real. You’ll never regret it because of its outstanding view from the apartment and the sunset you can meet from its balcony.
Secondly, it was the fastest communication with the owner. We sent a small review in the morning (we didn’t find a hairdryer), and in 15 minutes, we got what we asked.
And thirdly - The apartment is very comfortable, beds, sofa, kitchen, everything is equipped.
Sometimes a simpler place can be more worthy than some other more upmarket locations. Clássico is an honest hotel that delivers a very good price/value ration. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, a clean and more than able bathroom, good breakfast and, as important as other things, a very friendly reception and a excellent effort from all the staff to make a guest feel like at home. This business deserves to be recommended to everyone.
Needed a place to stay overnight in Vila Real - I arrived pretty late (about 00h30) and not only was Mme Gonçalves welcoming but her grandson was around to translate in English (tho she speaks excellent French also).
Friendly, warm, welcoming - decor shows her interests in travel and she made sure plenty of amenities (still/sparkling water) and an excellent fresh coffee to get started in the morning! Obrigado, Mme Gonçalves.
Great hotel!
Friendly staff
Beautiful relaxing facility.
Great place to take a vacation break or base your Douro stay.
Dining on site was nice
Sparkling outdoor pool with nice loungers.
Spa for very low add on price has sauna, steam & indoor pool that overlooks the outdoor green space.
Comfy well designed common areas too
Free parking is easy, its dedicated to hotel.
Highly recommend!
I'd love to stay here again .
A good stay in a very clean property. The hotel is definitely in need of updating but it was exceptionally clean and comfortable and perfect for passing through for the night. Free parking onsite. Close location to local restaurants and shops. The included breakfast was great, with many options. Although we didn’t use the facilities, the pool area and gym looked great. Staff were all friendly and welcoming.
A lovely old hotel on big grounds and lots of parking. It has a variety of sitting rooms and a good restaurant for dinner and breakfast. It has been one of the few places that has offered a good vegetarian meal. Our room was large with an extra porch where we could sit with windows that opened. The hotel was very close to the palace in Mateus which we visited.
This is like living in a dollhouse, in the sense of a charming, cute, lovely, well cared place. I've stayed in similar places in Ireland and France but this one beats all of them by far, I heartily recommend this place to anyone who wishes for a bit of peace and quiet (yet near a major city) in the beautiful countryside of northern Portugal.
Amazing place with a fantastic view, great service , great facilities , rooms, service. One of the best places you can stay in the Vila Real area , don’t hesitate. Beyond friendly managers, go over the edge to make you feel at home. Great experience with our kid there. We loved the included breakfast & very relaxing place!
The estate is really nice and well cared. We liked a lot the super personal breakfast and the effort from the hotel to stay sustainable. We also got nice help to find the estate and the amount of detail put in the guest information is great (especially the nice drawings provided). The room was large and confortable.
Quinta do Paço Hotel is an amazing place for a relaxing weekend. The staff is extremely friendly and always interested in helping, the rooms are very comfortable and clean, and the restaurant seems great (did not have the opportunity to try it).
I definitely want to go back!
Very warm welcome from the host, accommodation immaculate with fabulous views over Vila Real . Short walk into centre (20 min ) and lots of local amenities.
