Uma experiência inesquecível nas terras do Douro. Ideal para quem procura descansar e relaxar. O hotel é recente e tem uma ótima infraestrutura. O SPA, com vista para a magnífica paisagem exterior, é ideal para relaxar no fim da tarde, após um dia de passeios na zona. A localização é idílica, com vistas panorâmicas para os socalcos centenários dos vinhedos da rota do Douro. O ambiente é familiar e o staff é de uma enorme simpatia e disponibilidade. Pessoalmente, eu tenho algumas restrições alimentares que foram sempre prontamente atendidas. Na altura os carregadores para carros elétricos estavam a ser substituídos. Aconselha-se a confirmar se já estão em funcionamento, caso necessário.

lovely views except that my room was directly across from elevator, had a view of a huge electricity tower just outside the window, had a loudly beeping non working phone and reception staff who didn't care and had zero interest in fixing or replacing it. then a couple with a baby and loudly yapping dog were placed next to my room. the dog started to yap at 6 40 am, the couple apparently continued to sleep, and i had to leave my room and find a quiet place in a very small space. would NOT book here again. the good things are the small pool, which is kept clean, the views so long as you are not in Rooms 9 or 10, and the restaurant, which serves adequate if limited dinner meals. And Daniella is a wonderful staffer and deserves to be part of a more professional and more helpful team.

The hotel is very well located and has stunning views from the terraces. Our room was street side but quiet. The half board program was excellent. Dinner included couvert, wine, salad or soup, main and dessert. Excellent! Breakfast was typical but everything was fresh and plenty to choose from. We did not need air conditioning and were fine with the window ajar. The Wi-Fi was the only drawback as it tended to be spotty.

Numa zona difícil a meio de uma encosta, com uma vista soberba sobre o Douro, este Hotel de Agroturismo nasceu de uma quinta e de uma Adega, Val Moreira, que o Grupo oportunamente comprou. Depois de uma experiência com poucos quartos, foi a oferta alargada para mais quartos, todos com uma vista soberba para o Douro, mas com o crescimento trouxe dois problemas, escadas e dificuldade de estacionamento. No entanto a qualidade dos quartos, do serviço de restauração, razoável o pequeno almoço, um jantar à carta e dois buffets, sempre muito completos e com um serviço de colaboradores simpáticos e competentes, são no conjunto uma mais valia, e que compensa as dificuldades que anteriormente mencionei. Também a visita à Adega e a prova de vinhos são excelentes com colaboradores muito competentes e simpáticos. A paisagem sobre o Douro, é espectacular e a localização do Hotel fabulosa. Quem quiser ir a este Hotel, com dificuldades motoras deve pensar duas vezes, muitas escadas, mas não poderia ser de outra maneira.

Lovely hotel on the Douro River. Views are beautiful and peaceful. From our balcony, you could watch the boats going by and the sun on the vineyards. We had booked the romantic package, which included drinks, champagne, breakfast, as well as a picnic and tour at the Quinta do Roeda winery. Everything went off without a hitch. Our room was lovely. Breakfasts were excellent. And service was welcoming and friendly.

We had booked three nights at this hotel but cut the trip short and just stayed for two. Firstly the location is poor - I know I am contradicting some earlier reviews but this is as we saw it. We thought we were in the Douro Valley area, we were just on the edge. Alijo is a town that seemed to have moved on from the wine business, a lot of buildings were fairly new and not in keeping with elsewhere. The outlook from the hotel is over a school which is noisy at times and a park area. One wonders whether vineyards were taken up to build these. The hotel itself is a handsome building with a great terrace and a (not very clean) pool in its grounds. There does not appear to be any connection with Baron Forrester, strange choice of name for it. There has been some refurbishment, there was a great bar and most of the public rooms were great. Our bedroom was good with a Juliet balcony overlooking the terrace (and the school, one morning they had a VERY loud event starting at 7.30am, that was the last straw for my husband) however the bathroom was dingy, with a gruesome shower curtain and mould around the edges of the bath. In the room there was no safe, tea/coffee making facilities, no fridge let alone a minibar - just the space for it?! Old fashioned hair dryer in the bathroom. Air conditioning wouldn't be switched on 'until Monday' despite it being 30 deg. This was the fourth Pousada we had stayed in on this trip and was a big disappointment. We had driven through the Douro Alto on the Tua road to get there and had high hopes as to what it would be like. We did discover it is 'franchised' to Pestana rather than owned and run by them. We had dinner there the first time which was not good, tasteless under seasoned lump of veal for me, undercooked rabbit for my husband. Breakfast was fine and lunch on the terrace very nice. Staff generally were great though sometimes hard to find. We couldn't face dining there a second night and had scoped out places in the town which looked a bit basic... to be told that chef had Covid and the restaurant was closed. Possibly because of that they did not charge us for the last night when we checked out in the morning. Husband was told the printer was u/s so they couldn't print off the receipt. You couldn't make it up...

A nice welcoming reception. All the staff appeared to speak english which is very welcome and always makes me realise how lacking the Brits are at languages. We had a deluxe room which had a spectacular view of the river. It also had a small balcony but no seats so seemed a bit pointless. The heat hit us as soon as we opened the door so we tried to lower the air con to 16 degrees but it remained stifling hot. In the end we had to sleep with the balcony door open otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to sleep in the heat (this was March!) The room was really clean with a fridge and complementary bottled water. They had also provided two miniatures of port, custard tarts and biscuits which were very nice and appreciated. However, there is no coffee making facilities in the room. There were nice toiletries but bolted to the walls as is the trend in eco friendly hotels. The pillows were lovely and soft and the towels nice and big. We had a drink in the bar at lunch time and they serve small dishes & tapas. We had a selection of meat, cheeses & breads which was plenty big enough for two for 15 euro. We had half board so had dinner which was lovely. Well presented dishes which were tasty. Mains were around 25 euro if you didn’t have half or full board. Wine 7 euro for a small glass which seemed a bit steep. No table water offered just bottled water to buy. Breakfast provided a good selection of the usual cold meats, cheeses, pastries, cereal & fruit. There was also a small hot food selection. A carafe of your preferred juice was provided. However, the hot drinks were from one machine which meant there was frequently a queue and they weren’t very hot. Not much to ask for fresh tea and coffee at breakfast. The service in the hotel was very friendly throughout which was appreciated.

Nel ristorante, la prima notte abbiamo ordinato il menu di sapore set, era medio. La seconda notte, abbiamo ordinato dal menu a la carta per il pesce e l'ottopus, sono soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Il servizio è stato assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente assolutamente Il ristorante è probabilmente la cosa migliore in questo campo. Vivo nelle camere di fabbricazione, le camere sono medie per il suo prezzo. Il vino è certamente un rip-off, vi hanno dato alcuni vini economici l'anno scorso. Posso ottenere vino simile a un prezzo simile nella regione viticola di Firenze Italia con vini deliziosi dal 1800. Non consiglio di fare il vino delizioso in questo quinta. Hanno creato alcuni circuiti o percorsi per voi per girare intorno che è bello, ma le note e la mappa non sono aggiornate. Puoi perdere, ma dovresti anche essere in grado di capire il modo di uscire così poco.
