Hotels in Douro Valley

"The property is located in the beautiful valley on top of the mountain. The drive up to the check in was a small , narrow , cobblestone driveway. Once arrived we quickly checked in and were escorted to show us where to park the car and where the breakfast location was. Luckily we were located on the 5 th floor terrace so we only had to take the suitcases down to terrace 5 from terrace 7 where we parked. The room was a perfect size with a beautiful view of the grape vine mountainside and the river. There was a fridge and big walk in shower. The breakfast was spectacular with fresh squeezed orange juice and a chef to make omelets or over easy eggs ! They had 2 places to get food but unfortunately when we checked in on night one there was no availability until 9 pm at main restaurant . The next night we had reservations at 8:30 pm and that was the earliest! Edjardo who checked us in recommended a restaurant downtown and helped us get a taxi there and a return taxi , which cost $100 euros! So when you book a room , make dinner reservations at the main dining for a spectacular view and great menu variety. There are a lot of stairs so check to see if someone can help with suitcases to get to your room. Also when you book, ask if someone can take u to their main dining restaurant yet or you will have to drive ,or walk up and down the cobblestone driveway. There are some lights ,"

"Amazing views and a wonderful breakfast."
