The Vintage House - Douro
Douro Valley · 9.4/10 Exceptional · guest rating
A riverside hotel in the heart of Pinhão with a pool, poolside bar, restaurant and marina, a short walk from Quinta do Bomfim, the train station and the terraced vineyards.
The Vintage House Douro stands on the banks of the Douro River in the centre of Pinhão, a wine village in the valley. It is a riverside hotel rather than a hotel inside a winery, but the terraced vineyards and several port and Douro quintas are close, which makes it a convenient base for wine tourism on foot. Confirm room types and availability when you book.
The hotel has a pool, a poolside bar, a marina, a terrace and a garden, and the Rabelo restaurant serves lunch and dinner. Breakfast is available, and free WiFi, free parking and air conditioning are listed, along with a shopping area on site. Rooms look onto the river, a bridge and greenery in places. Confirm room views and meal options with the hotel.
