Everything about this hotel is quality: from the staff, to the rooms, food, grounds, location. We've stayed in a lot of lovely hotels, and The Vintage House is the loveliest by far. The attention to detail throughout the hotel is evident: everywhere you cast your gaze, it is clear all who have worked and work there now, know how to bring out the best of this exquisite hotel.
United KingdomMy fiancé and I had a brilliant stay at the Vintage House, Douro Valley. We arrived super shaken after our wing mirror had been taken off by a driver passing us illegally. The staff at the hotel were super helpful calling the police for us and explaining the situation. They later (very kindly!) sent us a bottle of champagne to calm our nerves and help us enjoy our holiday! The facilities were fantastic and very clean. The view at breakfast was breathtaking and the staff super friendly and attentive. The meal itself was very fresh and varied - with wonderful coffee/tea. The pool was great. Plenty of seats with shade and sun options available. They had wonderful snacks and drinks at the pool, soft towels as well with at least 2-3 members of staff checking in on guests at all times. The hotel itself is well located for exploring Pinhao and the surrounding vineyards on foot or by boat. Highly recommended it!
United Kingdom- Really nice hotel in a great location. Views from the rooms are stunning and the pool and garden area is lovely, too.
United KingdomA gorgeous hotel right in the Douro River. The master suite is wonderful. Huge, comfy beds and great views.
United KingdomGreat location by the river, staff is extremely friendly, rooms and grounds around it in perfect condition. Garden and pool were wonderful. Breakfast was excellent.
BelgiumThe view and location were both amazing. Breakfast was served overlooking the river while being surrounded by orange and lemon trees. The staff was super friendly, the rooms were beautiful and the beds were very comfortable
United KingdomA room with a view is what you go there for. While the pool and bar have an amazing atmosphere. The location is perfect for exploring the beauty of the Douro region. As for COVID19 safety, the staff makes sure everything is clean and prepared for maintaining the high level of safety. I highly recommend it!
GermanyThe location is quite exceptional and the hotel is worth a two days stay at least to relax in the grounds and enjoy the landscape. We arrived just the first week of re-opening after the Covid-19 shut down. We were impressed with the safety measures taken. The comfort is outstanding and the decoration perfect. Breakfast by the Douro, with exquisite croissants and pasteis de nata, is something to remember.
ItalyGreat location, facilities and extremelly well organized on the covid issues, and exceptional service and staff
PortugalExtremely kind staff, room with a wonderful view to the river. Delicious breakfast. Would stay again
