Hotel a Tarouquela

“We enjoyed staying in a historic place with a very beautiful view of the Douro River. Please note that the only way to get there is by car and the most convenient option is to take advantage of the dinner offered. It should be noted that there is an opportunity to taste very good local wine on site.”

“Second time staying at the Octant Douro, this time bringing my daughter. Experience didn’t disappoint. Everything was great!”

“We are a family of 5 with 3 kids under 12. We visited in March and it was very quiet/serene. Portovella has a beautiful view of the Douro. Riverside walk is just several steps down a hill. Photos don’t do it justice because it is so breathtaking in person. The comfort suite was the perfect size with 2 bathroom ensuites and a powder room. View from the suite was incredible. Just plan ahead if you’re staying on a Sunday as many restaurants were closed but we found a gem in Cinfaes - Sabores e...

“Maravilhoso”

“Breakfast was excellent, weather was to cool to use the pool”

“Personale gentilissimo, colazione e cena ottimi. Grazie.”

“El lugar es hermoso y romántico. El servicio es excelente. Los cuartos y las vistas maravillosas. El desayuno incluido es excepcional. El bar que tienen tiene todo tipo de bebidas y comidas riquísimas con una vista al río bella. Las toallas y las sábanas del cuarto están perfumadas. Tiene estacionamiento libre de costo dentro de la propiedad. Se respira paz. Tiene una piscina infinity y un jacuzzi que puedes reservar para usarlo en privado. Todo fue perfecto.”

“A great place to stay”

“Check in was great, with a welcome glass of Port. Breakfast was perfect every morning with plenty of options and very scenic views. Room was little dated and the area itself is secluded. If you’re looking for that, than this is the spot. The highlight of the trip in Douro was the wine tour about an hour away. Beautiful area beautiful resort. ”

“bonito hotel en una zona en desarollo. ”

“Beautiful hotel in rural setting. Owner Miguel reserved our Acoura 516 bridge tickets as our international charge card was not accepted. The continental buffet breakfast was delicious and freshly served. We enjoyed the fireplace in the evening which Miguel started each evening. If we return to the area to hike we will definitely stay here again. It was impressively clean and staff (his family :) friendly. ”

“Love the hotel facilities. Boutique hotel feel with very nice decor. Daniel gave us great service at the bar and restaurant while we were there. The rooms need a bit of updating specially the bathrooms but they were very clean and comfortable. Beautiful view from the balcony. ”

“Beautiful historic place and very friendly host! It was a very unique place and we loved it”

“Fijne plek om te overnachten, goede voorzieningen en prima locatie.”

“Amazing location, quiet with only 9 rooms, made for a very intimate experience. Peaceful views, fun activities (bike, paddle), and the pool is spectacular. ”

“Casa da Calçada nous offre la vie de château avec une remarquable attention aux détails. Tout est parfait. ”

“Quarto e hotel muito limpos, a piscina coberta e a área do Spa belíssimo, muito relaxante, água quente, sauna, tudo impecável. Dar os parabéns para a equipa do Hotel, todos muito gentis e atenciosos.”

“Excellent place, super nice host (Beatriz).”

“We had the most wonderful stay here for 3 days over easter. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, every part of it is carefully thought out. The decor is gorgeous, rooms spacious with lovely high ceilings and it is immaculately clean. The grounds are stunning, service and staff exceptional, i cannot think of one negative thing about our stay. Breakfast was also excellent and dinner in the restaurant the same with very reasonable pricing too for a 5 star hotel. A couple of minutes walk away are a...

“Chambre d’hôtel très agréable avec un petit balcon donnant sur les montagnes.”
