Quinta De Casaldronho Wine Hotel is located high above the river near Lamego. It features a sleek wine hotel that sits on a historic 24-hectare estate with 15 hectares of vineyards and its own production of Douro wines and Port. Guests can taste local wines, soak up the valley views and settle into one of Portugal’s most cinematic wine landscapes.
The hotel itself goes for contemporary calm rather than old-quinta nostalgia. There are 20 rooms with privileged views over the valley and river, plus a panoramic rooftop pool that does a very convincing job of derailing all sightseeing plans. The on-site bar and
Egas Moniz restaurant round things out with regional flavours and a properly indulgent sense of place.
The perfect place for Douro first-timers and anyone who wants their wine escape with both vineyard credibility and a little modern polish.
