Driving up to this pousada is a bit daunting, as it is a beautiful manor house in spectacular surroundings overlooking the Douro valley. The main house mainly kept its 18th century interior, which is quite impressive and the garden in the front is a delight. Quality and service of the pousada’s as a whole seem to have been slipping over... More

I can only confirm what has been written previously about the fantastic view, the style of the manor and peacefulness of this place. We stayed in one of the guest houses which had an even better view than the main house terrace. The room was spacious, clean and quiet with a modern bathroom and the 2-3 mins it took us... More

The place itself is absolutely amazing. An old manor house in the middle of vineyards overlooking the Douro river. Just a dream. Well appointed rooms with lots of history. Sadly the service was not good at all. For dinner, we got this tasteless pumpkin soup, got white wine, which they didn't even put to cool, there were cats - yes,... More

This Pousada is beautifully situated in the Douro Valley - in the heart of the port wine region. The Pousada itself is both a manor house and a series of guest houses, all which appear to have spectacular views. The manor house is grand and conveys images of what it might have looked like in the 18/19th century. We have... More

In a spectacular setting, but the service did not live up to the splendour of the surroundings. Although we’d pre-booked for three days, we were told when we arrived that we would have to change rooms after the first day. We left our room at 11.00 so they could move our cases and get the room ready for the next... More

Very nice place, with a beatiful view. Nice swimming pool for adults and children. Breakfast very complete. Lovely room (nº29), good amenities, free water. More

A welcome return to the Solar da Rede pousada, following our first visit in 2006. What's changed? The pousada is now run by CS Hotels on behalf of Pousadas of Portugal, along with its sister hotel in Pinhao, the CS Vintage. This has standardised some of the offerings, so it's not quite as quirky as we remember it. But the... More

The building of the hotel is an old Quinta not only very well restored but also extremelly well mantained. Expensive, but I would say the place is worth it. We stayed in a bungalow up the river with an astoundig view of the Douro. Very comfortable. Very friendly staff. The place is very very enjoyable. Perhaps a small inconvenience is... More

This manor house from the 18th century is an amazing place, right on the Douro River. the views are fantastic and you will not want to leave! We had dinner at the restaurant and thought the food was fantastic, and the complimentary breakfasts are very good too. Ask at the reception to open the small chapel for you, it is... More
