“Spectacular views”
As part of a tour group I personally felt that the drive to and from this hotel was a bit daunting, especially in a large bus. The views are certainly beautiful but if you are not keen on high twisty roads then this one is not for you. The hotel was comfortable and the breakfast was very good. Dinn… more

“Tilts at greatness but just misses”
Good points: Fairly modern design; good food; excellent views across the valley; extremely isolated location (if you seek that); great bar staff; unadvertised impromptu seaplane airshow, fridge in room. Bad points: Disorganised restaurant staff lacking direction, leadership and confidence (two staf… more

“Very Nice- Peaceful”
We were on a Country Roads of Portugal trip and stayed one night. The drive through the Douro Valley to arrive at the hotel was nothing short of breathtaking beauty. Our room was nice but one floor up had a much better view of the river-- we could see the river but another part of the hotel struc… more

“Beautiful hotel but lacking something”
It's a bit of a white knuckle ride on the roads leading to the hotel. Once there, the views are spectacular. The building itself was clean, modern and of a high standard, and so where the rooms. Our room had a great view of the Douro from the balcony. You could walk around the grounds, exploring th… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
