Delightful Hotel
This hotel is only 4 years old and still in pristine condition. The decor is to die for. Modern, mixed with touches of french furniture. Stunning. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Super bedroom. The hotel seems to be in the middle of nowhere about 20/30 mins drive from Porto but since the bus stops virtually outside and for 2/3 euros it really isn't worth driving in. The only drawback is the restaurant, as we had to book early in the day to eat in the evening. Not sure whether it was the time of year (September) but it was very quiet. We came back one evening and couldn't eat but the staff drove us to another local restaurant where we had a great meal and good wine, especially the Port! Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Beautiful but remote
This was a beautiful hotel. The only negative was the location. Very hard to find and very out of the way.If you just want to relax this is lovely, but not if you want to sightsee.

8/10 Very Good

Ett fantastiskt vackert ställe, fint hotellrum, modernt men med möbler, konst o tavlor som gav karaktär. Lyxig frukost serverad ( ej buffé) Middag, husmanskost, fantastiskt god soppa o omelett. Vänlig personal men lite tillbakadragna Vackra omgivningar på landet, dock lite långt från Vila Nova Di Gaia ( ca 15-20 min) Lite ensligt så här års, det sas att 3-4 personer till bodde på hotellet men såg inte en själ... Vackert, vänligt,lugnt men kanske saknar lite liv. Perfekt för den som vill ha lugn o ro ! Prisvärt!

Gepflegtes, interessantes Anwesen.
Sehr schoene Villa, hochwertig restauriert, tolle Zimmer, schoener Park. Sehr ruhige Lage, etwas ausserhalb von Porto. Auto erforderlich. Personal wirkt zeitweise etwas ueberfordert, Fruehstueck war (wohl aufgrund Veranstaltung am Vorabend) nicht rechtzeitig verfuegbar und eher ein Notbehelf.

nice hotel in calm surrounding
Overall great stay, small boutique hotel with fine restaurant. Quiet location, helpful, smiling personel. Parking lot on hotel premises. The only draftback is the access to it. Need to know which small road to take to find the spot. Please ask personel before arrival and they will be glad to guide you.

Hôtel fantastique pour week-end romantique
Nous avons passé 4 jours dans cet hotel ou plutôt "Splendide Villa", avec un personnel très sympathique, aux petits soins, un petit mots spécial pour Mr Roi Ribeiro qui est d'une grande gentillesse et chez lui on voit que c'est naturel. Il est sorti dans sa réception pour nous accueillir à chaque fois que nous rentrions dans nos balades et peux importe l'heure tardive. Je souhaiterais avoir dans chaque hotel ou je séjourne des personnes comme lui et l'équipe qui compose cette Villa. La chambre et salle de bains spacieuses et confortables avec le souci d'une belle décoration moderne. Petit déjeuner copieux, préparé à l’heure souhaité pour voir son pain tout chaud, viennoiseries jus d'orange frais (à préciser à la réception pour du jus d'orange préssé ) charcuterie fraiche fromage yaourt confitures. Piscine intérieure + hammam. Parfait endroit pour se reposer au milieu de jardins extérieurs parfaitement entretenus et loin des hôtels bruyants du centre de Porto tout en étant tout proche (soit à 20 km). Très bien pour des occasions spéciales et romantiques. Nous y retournerons volontiers dans ce bel hôtel de charme !
