A different type of hotel set in acres of vineyards this is a good place to stay if you want something a bit different. On the Saturday night we paid for the buffet which was great value.
Extremely friendly, hospitable and entertaining host Maria.
The estate is just beautiful - the surrounds, interior decor, upholstery and every detail.
Excellent food and service
One of the best hotels we have had in Portugal.
Super séjour en amoureux.
Il y a un an, nous nous sommes mariés dans cet hôtel. Le cadre est magnifique. Les personnel est super. La propriétaire Maria est incroyable !
Caractère et charme définissent cette magnifique propriété. La décoration nous éblouit, chaque recoin mérite notre regard!
L'accueil est très chaleureux. Cet endroit est un havre de paix.
My group of six stayed at this magnificent home whose owner hosted us with grace and generosity. The dinner we ate was the best on our northern Portugal journey. We are only sorry we booked one night. We will return for longer next time, for it is a place to revisit.
Absolutely stunning property. Maria and Pedro welcomed us into their home and made us feel like family. Had delicious dinner and breakfast buffet served in their beautiful dining room. The entire working property is classic Portuguese Quninta living. Staff was amazing. Looking forward to staying there again. Highly recommend if you are visiting Lamego.
Unique experience to stay here. Really enjoyed it for one night. Not sure I'd stay here for 2+. Love the history and feel of the place but it's older and while it's part of the charm, beds could be updated.
This property was a good place for us to rest mid-vacation. It was not tourist season, so it was very quiet with very few guest. THe food was wonderful as was the staff. The hotel itself was a little on the older side and there is little to do around the estate or area. You will need transportation to go into the Duoro Valley.
The price of the rooms is high for what you get, but considering the beautiful surrounding and the interesting main building, it is worth it.
Jeorge (the receptionist) is great, very helpful and a true multi-tasker.
The estate is really nice and great walks, but there are signs that a bit behind with the uokeep.
Struttura meravigliosa, con una vista incredibile sulla campagna. Giardino enorme e bellissimo. Tante sale, tutte a disposizione degli ospiti, come se si fosse in un castello. Ricca colazione. Tanto comfort. Da rivedere la pulizia delle aree comuni, come la sala colazioni. Ci vuole poco a togliere polvere e ragnatele!
On pénètre dans un univers aristocratique, surchargé de meubles, objets, tableaux et photos de famille. Il faut se laisser séduire par cette surcharge, par la propriétaire, mélange de femme d'affaires et de princesse, par le personnel très courtois, par le jardin aux arbres lourds de fruits et aux herbes folles. Se laisser charmer par l'ensemble sans s'acharner sur les détails. Recommandé pour qui cherche un dépaysement romanesque hors du temps.
Stunning property and grounds, with excellent service with food and drink.
Our room was a bit tired, with an old fashioned bathroom and no air con.
We found out that the excellent staff would deliver food and wine on request, but no one told us this and it wasn’t signposted! Information about dinner, services, prices for wine etc. should be made clear.
Otherwise, a beautiful and unique experience. Very tranquil and serene setting.
Room was very rundown as though Expedia clients get the worse rooms. Toilet ran all night, had to get the lamp fixed, curtains were fithy, and entrance garden all overgrown making it hard to enter the room. Too bad- potentially a great place but needs alot of work.
This property was a magical experience for us. A heritage mansion set among acres of vineyards. The views were superb. The mansion villa was spectacular in its furnishings, its location, its decor and its staff and owner. We were greeted by Francesco and made to feel at home in this regal atmosphere and public space. Maria, the owner shared the history of the home and land. Our room was huge with comfortable beds and pristine linens. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast in a dining room with a table set for nobility. The fireplace was lit every morning and the ambience was magical and a perfect start to our day. We spent three wonderful days with easy access to touring the Douro river valley and walking the estate. We will return. Thank you we were blessed to experience such luxury and welcome. Will return from Canada in the future.

This property has so much potential, but…
At first glance, this property is in a stunning setting. 500 acres of orchard, Vineyard, and historic buildings create an atmosphere that feels like it could be four-star. It’s not.
This property is short 4 employees that could take it from a three star to at least a 3 1/2 star.
1. It needs another maintenance person who isn’t just keeping things working, but fixes and upgrades the aging facility: moldy grout in the showers, drooping shower faucets, and broken toilet seats.
2. It needs a groundskeeper who is eliminating all the weeds and grooming the gardens and walkways. The historic nature is great, but untamed it looks messy and feels like the staff can’t be bothered with the details…
3. …which rings true in the food, which is served upon reservation for dinner as $45 fixed price but lacks creativity or presentation. For the $, far better food is available nearby and many places have better presentation and variety. A true chef would add the elegance and quality that takes the food from home cooking to fine dining.
5. A Gardner who is taking advantage of the abundance of fruits and vegetables growing around the property. So much wasted food and looks unkept.
The staff is not professional, and therefore more casual in their nature. It’s charming on the surface, but not 4-star.
Lastly: these are the worst mattresses I have ever slept on. 1 star hostels have better!
TLDRBeautiful venue in need of investment.
Wie aus der Zeit gefallen, in einer wunderbaren Landschaft gelegen. Traumhaftes Anwesen mit herrlichen Aussichten in den umliegenden Weinbau. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal und charmante Gastgeberin! Wir kommen definitiv wieder! Dankeschön!!
Très bel hôtel de charme. Dommage que le petit déjeuner ne soit pas à la hauteur : pas d'oeuf et bacon, pas de choix de patisseries, des produits de qualité moyenne...
Ceci sous prétexte qu'il n'y avait pas beaucoup de monde!
O Hotel está imaculadamente preservado, fica a cerca 17 km da Régua, num local paradisíaco. Os acessos são bastante bons. O serviço de limpeza pareceu-me excelente. Sossego absoluto. Total envolvimento com a natureza. O pequeno almoço, bom. Nada mais a apontar, dado que a estadia foi curta.
The hotel has great reviews online, but I think that the Coivid-19 pandemic has hit this hotel hard to the point that the old reviews are now false advertising. In short, you'll enjoy this hotel if you enjoy old knick-knacks or paintings of family members - each room is completely filled with them. You may also like this hotel if you like this style and are looking for a wedding venue. However there are a few drawbacks.
Due to a lack of staff or lack of money, the property has not been properly maintained - rooms are dirty, we found a lot of black mold in the bathroom, the backyard garden has not been maintained, and the pool area was dirty with some fountains filled with green algae.
Our bedroom was very dusty/moldy with old curtains and a matching quilt. The mattress was very hard. We had to keep the windows open to allow fresh air to circulate - there was not air conditioning or fans in our room.
We wanted to spend the least amount of time possible in the room, so we decided to go down to the pool. Unfortunately there was bird poop all over the seats and cushions, so we had to turn over the cushions ourselves and then put towels on top to use. The flys are what drove us away from the pool, as there were too many to count. There were fruit trees and horses below the pool and maybe that is where they are coming from.
Lastly, breakfast is free and I'd buffet style. The food is best described as a contenental breakfast plus some slices of deli meat.
