Anna greeted us upon arrival and not only checked us in, but walked us to our room. The property is wonderful, clean, well attended and in a perfect location. Staff are always available and smiling. Breakfast buffets are numerous, plentiful and delicious. We enjoyed our room with a balcony overlooking the river very much.

We enjoyed this hotel. We had a lovely room with a terrace overlooking the Douro River. Dinner in the luxury dining room was excellent but expensive. Bar food was good and reasonably priced. The pool was nice. We enjoyed the town with winery visits and boat trips. The only really odd thing was that the bottom of the shower door does not come to the floor and water flooded the bathroom floor. This happened to our friends also, so it was not just our room. You learn to stand in one small spot to wash. Odd, I would say.

Beautiful place with very professional friendly staff. I had a lovely stay. This place is centrally located and can walk (or hike) to many Quintas nearby. Very clean and comfortable. The Breakfast was great. I had dinner in their restaurant with some modern twist- fantastic experience. If you like peaceful yet comfortable place with old charm- highly recommend.

Beautiful property and wonderful stay overall. Two minor issues: didn’t like the plastic mattress cover and lack of mirror in the bathroom.

Very comfortable location to visit the port vineyards! Not a lot of dining options in town, but the hotel restaurant was good.

Wineries around the area, the Douro river, and lookout points are fantastic, amazing, beyond words at times. However, the surrounding town doesnt offer much else. The train station was cool but "short n sweet", much cooler if actually travelling by train.

Beautiful old hotel. Property outside with the vines making a garden is very romantic. Close to many wineries, we even walked to some. All staff speak perfect English. The rooms are large, our bathroom in the Junior Suite room was huge, with a circular step in shower/tub. Balconies are small with no room to sit and relax with 2 tiny uncomfortable metal chairs. The view from the balcony/hotel is just Ok, not what I expected since the hotel is at the bottom so all you mostly see are the large boats parked in front of the hotel. It’s the same view from the pool and restaurant since the hotel is at the bottom not the top of the hill. Breakfast is excellent, huge variety, good service. My biggest concern is the quality of the AC. Ours barely worked and was already set to the lowest rating of 5 degrees Celsius by the prior room occupant. I knew there was no point in complaining since another guest was arguing about AC in the lobby when we checked in. In our room there was not even a AC vent in the bathroom and it felt like a sauna after trying to take a shower. When I mentioned to the staff that they need to completely gut and replace the AC system, she said it was replaced last year, so something is really not working well. There is also a train that runs next to the property during the day but not at night

We enjoyed our stay here at this beautiful hotel. The view from our room of the Douro river was amazing. The hotel staff were all very helpful and friendly. We had an absolutely delicious dinner in the hotel restaurant and the breakfast buffet was wonderful. The hotel location is perfect; the waterfront, wineries and the town are all within walking distance. A perfect stay!

Huge but ageing wine country resort with massive rooms and tired furnishings that had all seen many better days. Service non-existent and although one Porter was very helpful, other staff were consistently uninterested or resentful of visitors. No in-house dining other than buffet breakfast and little outside dining options available. What appeared on the website was a luxury resort but we were very disappointed and we would not recommend.

We had to go back home unexpectedly for a family emergency. Even though we contacted the hotel, they still insisted on charging us for a one night stay at their hotel. One day I hope to return to Portugal and continue our vacation, but we will never stay at the Vintage House.

Perfect spot in Pinhao to explore from. Reception was brilliant and accommodated holding our bags until the room was ready. They provided early check in so we could enjoy the afternoon at the pool. Every staff member was courtesy and welcoming.
