A breathtakingly beautiful property , with attention to minute detail with a caring and friendly team that delivered an outstanding experience .
The cuisine and service at the award winning Teracu restaurant on the property was simply amazing showcasing the best ingredients in a hearty but yet beautifully presented plates.
Jorge, Francisca , Rafael, Maura and Alexandra were spontaneously warm and hospitable and made the Douro valley stay one of the most memorable highlights of our two and a half week trip to Portugal. Each of them were experts in their respective fields and went out of their way to make it a very special and delightful experience for us.We will surely visit this property again and recommend it to all our friends and family..

The location is not for everyone, but we loved it.
It is isolated from the nearest villages, but the views more than compensate for that you're pretty much required to have dinner in their, very good (!), restaurant if you want to have glass or two of wine.
Situated in Pinhão, Hostel Douro Backpackers has a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a barbecue....

I just totally support the other comments about this fantastic hostel. Such a comfortable friendly vibe created by Pedro & Sarah. Best hostel I've stayed in !

The location is good. If you have a large group, and you're not concerned about aesthetics, and have a very small budget, then this is suitable. The terraces were a plus.
Located in a wine producing estate, on the right bank of Douro River, Quinta De La Rosa is a family owned property, 2 km from Pinhão. Rooms at this working vineyard are spread over several levels.

A beautiful property in a wonderful location, 15 minutes’ walk to the village and perched just above the River Douro. Pretty bedroom with excellent bathroom, very well-maintained.
Fantastic breakfast, amazing variety and quality. Lovely staff, helpful and smiling.
Ate dinner in the restaurant just once, it’s excellent but expensive.
Enjoyed the wine & port tour & tasting, and a yoga session (in one of the port cellars!).
Also enjoyed the carefully mapped wallks through the vineyards, the longer one affording amazing views across the valley and the river from the top.
Staying at Quinta de la Rosa is expensive, but was a real treat.
Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a pool with a view, lake view and a balcony, Casa Nunes is located in Pinhão.

The roof top garden with the pool was a perfect place to relax at the end of the day. The breakfast was plentiful with a range of treats. Our host was generous and friendly and we had a perfect few days of walking, eating and drinking in Pinhão from this well located apartment.

We drove to Pinhão. The roads are slightly terrifying but the views are spectacular.
We were there in March so not everything was open. Best restaurant was Writers Place! The walking trails through the vineyards were fantastic!

The perfect spot to explore some of the lovely Quintas the Douro Valley has to offer. Would definitely recommend Pinhao as your base. We drove to Pinhao from Porto which was great for sight seeing and super easy. We visited the three Quintas that are within walking distance from Pinhao train station which were lovely. I’d recommend making a reservation in advance for dinners or lunch where possible. But we also did a few walk ins.

Pinhao is stunning. with good selection of restaurants in the evening. Beautiful wineries. As the wineries are built into cliffs the drive to Pinhao and around is not for the faint hearted. The roads are very narrow some without safety barriers. However if you can get past this it is worth it for the scenary. It is a sleepy village but everyone is so friendly. One or two days maximum is enough.

Excellent location on an S bend on the river Douro.
Excellent location on an S bend on the river Douro. Sleepy village atmosphere but with plenty of activities around the railway boat trips and quinta wine tasting. Some good restaurants. Wonderful views if you climb up through the village. Watch out for the dogs though - they are always enclosed but can be extremely aggressive.

The position of this hotel is breath taking and the staff are really helpful. Be careful when booking, some rooms are in the main building but some are away up and down a very, very steep lane. Not for anyone with a disability. We used the restaurant and although the food was lovely, we thought it was a bit pricey. It was good, but not that good.
Fantastic tucked on a hill surrounded by olive trees and vines (perfect for a morning hike) and located at walking distance to the Pinhao town. The House has a real homy feel to it and is well appointed. The fridge was stocked perfectly for us to make nice breakfasts in the morning and the clothes washer was a nice bonus as we are traveling across country. We also enjoyed a nice evening using the wood burning BBQ. This house is perfect to enjoy this incredible wine country and the beautiful views it offers.
The location was picture perfect, the property had everything you could want for a short or long stay. The apartment was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Ana stocked the fridge with so many wonderful treats we were delighted! The daily fresh bread made us want to stay forever! 46 is the house number, between two store fronts in a large, yellow housing unit. Directly across from a cute little wine shop. Pinhao is transforming and therefore a little sleepy, it was great to have a place to call home!
Beautiful location in the middle of vineyards, not far from Pinhao
Excellent guided tour through the winery with a very knowledgeable lady
Great dinner and a simple but good breakfast
Rooms are not big but they are clean and comfortable
Nice pool with a great view of the surrounding hills and vineyards
Very quiet location - loved the silence of the countryside!
Amazing location with great view inside a vinery.
Only few minutes of drive from Pinhao.
The hotel staff is amazing, super friendly and will do anything to improve your stay.
The winery is outstanding and you must take a tasting tour in it.
Plenty of parking space.
We can't recommend it enough for visiting the Douro river and its wineries.
It is a very quiet place, a tiny village. We liked very much the pool as it was extremely hot. The possibility for self service, using the fridge for storing our cheese for the evening meal we made for ourselves (note you have to buy all your groceries in Pinhao) sitting outside in the evening was Fabolous.
The hotel was able to upgrade our reservation from a double room with river view to a junior suite which was a nice surprise for my husband. He was able relax and enjoy a pleasant dinner at the hotel too. We had a beautiful view of the Douro river and hillsides of terraced vineyards. Lovely property.
Although we were on a Homeboat on water, we did not feel any movement, the boat is well anchored and we had a good night sleep.
The hosts were excellent and the basket in the morning with our breakfast included in the stay
It was a very nice experience in Pinhao on the Douro river
Great location in Pinhao. Breakfast was excellent and our hosts took care to cater for our dietary needs (one coeliac, one non-dairy). They were also very informative about the property and the area. Nice to sit outside on our own terrace with a glass of Douro wine!
This property exceeded our expectations and we were very sorry to be leaving after a 2 night break. Absolutely everything had been provided by an exceptionally and thoughtful host. We thoroughly recommend this property and would book again if we return to Pinhão.
Pinhao is a beautiful place to visit and this apartment was great! Lot of space and a super convenient kitchen. The host, Pedro, was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast at the door every morning was a much appreciated attention.
Antonio was a great host and was great at communicating. This is a cosy and well located place in Pinhao. Would recommend to anyone wanting a taste of Douro Valley. Parking on street was free and quite easy to find.
Pedro & Sara are the best hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Pedro took time with each guest to explain where to go & what to do in Pinhao. The property is exceptional, especially the roof top space.
Lovely little apartment with wonderful balcony and outdoor terrace. We loved our time in pinhao. The hosts were so patient and lovely. Only a couple minutes from the train station and the river.
nice location, few minutes walk to Pinhao across pedestrian bridge. Easy driving to nearby Quinta’s. Welcoming hosts, deluxe room very spacious. Property very clean and onsite parking.
The location could not be better. The terrace overlooking the Douro Valley were stunning.
We would definitely stay again if our travels brought us back to Portugal.
