Quinta Nova Winery House - Relais & Châteaux

This is a magical place. We had two nights in this location. Our room had a terrace that opened up to great views of the vineyards. The room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was set up well with great lightling.

We had the most amazing lunch and visit at beautiful Quinta Nova. The property is absolutely breathtaking and the restaurant is fabulous, the food delicious and the service outstanding. They truly have a passion for what they are doing. We were also shown around by the lovely Anna, who was warm and extremely passionate about this area and this lovely Quinta. She made our visit even more special. We will be back! This is a place that is not to be missed in the beautiful Duoro Valley!!

Our bedroom was lovely with beautiful shower, bed and furnishings. Delightful food and wine. Waking up to breakfast in the serene dining room and attentive service, comfortable seating--no need to go anywhere else--this is the place to bring good books and to be. Enjoyed meandering towards the lake on friendly pathways where the light and view changed constantly. Wine tour was fun & impressive. I must go back to try the very inviting swimming pool. Thank you!

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel at home! Every single person we spoke with was so friendly and helpful! The estate is at a beautiful location, the views are breathtaking and the estate itself is really well maintained and has everything you could ask for. We enjoyed a lunch at the terrace, with the beautiful views and a bottle of their Rosé. Also here, the staff was super friendly and helpful. On the day of arrival, we did the free tour of the winery, accompanied with a wine tasting afterwards. It was just a small group with a very friendly guide who took the time to explain everything, and she would answer any question you had. During the wine tasting, she explained the different wines, gave some background information and answered our questions: 10 out of 10! We had dinner at the restaurant of the hotel, which was incredibly good. A really nice and homey feeling, with some bottles of their delicious wine paired with the food we had. The desert with a bottle of port including a traditional fire opening made the evening unforgettable. All in all, a must stay if you’re in the Douro region and enjoy port. The staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and made our stay even more pleasant. If I have the chance, I would come back here, for the views, the food, the wines, and definitely the staff.

The hotel is serene and beautiful! The staff was amazingly helpful especially George. He crafted a beautiful itinerary for us. The boat trip was gorgeous. It was a must! The breakfast was delicious. The hotel rooms were well appointed. We will be back!
