Maravilloso

Nada más entrar en ese Palacio, solo tienes sonrisas y muy buena energía. Sus instalaciones son muy buenas. Las cortesías excelentes sobre todo las trufas que te dejan por la tarde noche en la habitación. Víctor Miranda Manager del hotel es un CRACK, tanto en el trato como a la hora de solucionar imprevistos. Sandro, Inés y todo el personal son personas muy agradables y te hacen sentir como en casa.

Our stay at Pestana Palacio do Freixo

Our stay at this beautiful and historic hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We were delighted to receive a complimentary room upgrade, which made our experience even more special. The room itself was elegant, comfortable, and filled with thoughtful touches that showcased both charm and modern comfort. The food was outstanding—each meal felt carefully prepared and full of flavor, making dining here a true highlight. The amenities throughout the hotel were equally impressive, striking a perfect balance between history and luxury. Every detail, from the décor to the overall atmosphere, added to the sense of staying somewhere truly unique. We left feeling relaxed, cared for, and already planning a return. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and luxurious experience in a historic setting.

8/10 Very good

En del luksus.

Værelset var stort og meget rent. Rengøring var hver dag og de kommer om aften og vil gøre din seng klar til sovetid og der er te til afslapning før sovetid. Morgenmad var rigelig okay. Stor valgmuligheder og man kan også bestille special retter såsom omelet, osv. Restaurant om aftenen kunne være bedre. Maden smager godt. Men service kunne være hurtigere og kan måske får AC eller en blæser da det var så varmt at sidde der på trods at vinduerne var åbnet.

Slotshotel med charme - og nabostøj

Ældre renoverede bygninger direkte ned til Douro-floden, men desværre også et stykke fra bymidten - og med aktiv erhvervsbygning (større fra lastbiler), som nabo.

Lovely Stay auspicious Start

Stay was very nice, service was great once checked in and property is lovely. The only issue was at check in. Somehow even though there were 3 people at reception they had to call someone to check us in and we had to wait for that person for more than 20 minutes. We arrived well after the normal check in time, during the day.
