Christopher
The view was absolutely breathtaking, with stunning scenery all around. The hotel went above and beyond to make our New Year's stay special, with festive decorations and a lively atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that all our needs were met. The swimming pools were a great feature, with an outdoor pool that was refreshing and an indoor pool that was perfect for relaxation.
The location of the hotel was quite remote, making it a bit difficult to access without a car. the options for dining were limited to either the hotel's restaurant or nearby villages, both of which required transportation.

Almost everything was ok. That's a new hotel with a good design and facilities, and also a good service. Located on a large Porto vineyard and very relaxing. Excellent value for the money.
The rooms are really good, but please change the rooms lighting - it´s too cold (too much white). Then it will be perfect!

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious and filling. The hotel was also conveniently located near several important business offices. The view from the room was breathtaking, giving me an opportunity to relax after a long day of meetings.
The hotel lacked many amenities that I typically expect from a five-star hotel. The gym was small and outdated, which made it difficult to maintain my daily exercise routine.

Our Christmas stay at this hotel had a lovely lobby and bar area, and the staff was friendly. The rooms were clean with comfortable beds, and the hotel was in a convenient location with easy access to nearby attractions. The Christmas decorations were beautiful and added a festive touch to our stay.
Our experience was not as enjoyable as we had hoped. the heating in the rooms was inadequate, and we had to ask for extra blankets to stay warm.

Nestled among rolling vineyards and overlooking the breathtaking Douro valley, this charming old house is the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. The comfortable rooms boast tasteful decor and stunning views from the balcony. The breakfast is simply delicious and the restaurant's service is highly recommended. Take a dip in the wonderful swimming pool, or unwind in the sauna or jacuzzi. You'll find all the modern facilities you need for a comfortable stay.
The staff could be more attentive to details and improve their professionalism.

This hotel fulfilled all my luxurious needs, with exclusive amenities such as a Spa & wellness centre, sauna, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and an outdoor sun terrace with sun loungers. The treatment room offered massages, body scrubs, beauty treatments, and facials. The restaurant provided a delicious buffet breakfast and packed lunches with special diet menus available. The location advantages were picturesque and peaceful with a beautiful garden area to explore.
The only minor issue was the lack of staff experience in certain areas, which could lead to some inconveniences. this hotel provided a relaxing and high-quality experience with top-notch amenities and picturesque surroundings.

The spa facilities are ideal for unwinding after a long day. The breakfast provided is delicious with fresh and tasty options. The staff is pleasant and welcoming.
Felt very at home, no complaints whatsoever.

I really enjoyed the beautiful and elegant decoration of the hotel. The main hall was like stepping back in time with its old-world charm. It made me feel like a lady from a bygone era. The accessibility for senior people was also well thought out, with easy-to-navigate wheelchair ramps and spacious areas to relax and enjoy the surroundings. It was perfect for someone like me who values comfort and convenience.
I would have liked to see more attentiveness from the staff. Sometimes it felt like the children working there were a bit overwhelmed and not fully prepared to handle the needs of us senior guests.

I had the most amazing stay at a hotel in Mesao Frio called Douro Scala. The hotel is absolutely stunning, with one of the best views I've ever seen. Overlooking the Duoro River and the terraced river valley, the setting was truly breathtaking. The pool area was brilliant and perfect for relaxing in the sun. The hotel itself was beautiful and had all the luxurious facilities I expected. What surprised me the most was the unbelievable price for such a nice hotel. The staff were super friendly and the rooms were spacious and lovely. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom had a bathtub and shower with great amenities. I couldn't find any faults at all with my stay.
Couldn't find any faults at all 😊
