The staff was friendly and allowed us to drop our luggage off early and helped us set up our tour’s & reservations in the Douro. Location is so easy from the train. The hotel is beautiful, clean, quiet and comfortable with food on-site if you get in late. The complimentary breakfast was excellent! Thanks so much!

Ok place in central Regua.
The hotel is in a central location in Regua. For such a. Highly rated hotel we were surprised by some Shortcomings. Staff couldn’t help us find a few coins for parking. No umbrellas available to lend on those pouring days. And the breakfast had no hot items. We were a tad disappointed overall.

Our breakfast is tradicional, homemade, and our cakes, for example, we reduce sugar. We try to find as many healthy options as possible to suit the tastes of our guests. But we will take into account your comment on this issue :) Thank you Até já

Charming historical hotel, recently renovated
Nice hotel, friendly staff, good location in the center of town, spacious room, healthy breakfast. Be aware that parking is on the street and you have to feed the meter, although overnight is free. A train track runs directly behind the hotel but the trains are actually very quiet and stop after about 11 pm. They never bothered us.

Olá We are pleased to read your comment and to know that you enjoyed your stay with us. Our elevator is incredibly slow, yes and if you allow us we will leave you an explanation of our choice. The Original Douro Hotel is the result of a rehabilitation in a building inserted in an urban rehabilitation area in which we were not allowed to change the exterior dimensions of the house and it was unthinkable to leave aside the introduction of an elevator that would jeopardize the comfort of our guests. . Given the difficulties and restrictions on site, this was the only solution we found on the market that fulfilled the function. Still, it has its advantages. Did you know that this technology reduces our impact on the planet? It's a slow elevator, yes, but environmentally friendly and super quiet :) Thank you for your visit and we hope to see you next time. :) Até já

Great rest in Douro
Great place in Regua in the Douro Valley. The location in the middle of town is excellent, with several great options for good restaurants. Parking was easy - and free overnight on the street, but beware that parking is metered after 9am. The room was very quiet, nicely renovated; the bathroom was very nice and functional. The breakfast was superb! And everyone was oh-so-friendly! Loved this place!

Excellent hotel. It was remodeled in 2018 and is super nice, modern while still maintaining some of the original structure and and charm in the interior design. Short walk to the river boat cruises or the train station, and a short drive to the quintas across the river. I recommend this hotel when staying in Peso de Regua

This property had a great location, and a tasty breakfast. Unfortunately the beds were very uncomfortable and the walls are paper thin, so it's possible to hear complete conversations in the halls and the train passing behind the property on a very regular basis.

Beautifully restored hotel. Service was warm and welcoming throughout. The presentation and quality of the food exceeded our expectations, particularly the free continental breakfast. We stayed in a room at the back of the hotel where some train tracks run. The occasional train did not bother us and they don’t run all night so it was not an issue for us. A very classy hotel for the money.
