We had a wonderful two nights here. The warmest of welcomes and nothing was too much trouble for Daniel who helped us most of the time and the other staff too. It is wonderfully located for a quiet trip enjoying the spectacular views and outdoor space & pool. The room was basically appointed but comfortable and had a/c. Meals were delicious and it was a very different experience to sit around the table with other guests from around the world. Great wine and port selection too
The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The views from the back of the property are most incredible, leaving the front of the hotel very non-descript. The prepared dinners were great, especially for those of us who did not want to head back down into Pinhao. The breakfast was wonderful, although they lacked eggs.
The only real negative is how to get to the property and, less so, the parking. The directions from Pinhao do not reflect the steepness and the very narrow streets that you have to traverse. Finding the actual hotel was quite frustrating.

Gracious host Bernardo, has created a beautiful paradise overlooking the Douro Valley. The view is spectacular, the family style dinner a fun way to meet fellow travelers and hiking opportunities abound.
Our stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos exceeded all our expectations—and I say that in spite of some windy, rainy days! Bernardo was so gracious and helpful. Before we even arrived he was letting us know about road closures and provided directions for the best route. Upon arrival, our bags were brought in for us and he even volunteered to park our car. The complementary snack and wine were delicious and enjoyed in front of a cozy fireplace.
Bernardo provided information for hiking, port and wine tastings and restaurants. They provided breakfast and we also chose to have the family style dinner in their dinning room two evenings—it was delicious and the service was impeccable.
The common areas and the rooms were spotless and the beds and bedding so comfortable. The staff was always friendly and courteous. As you can tell, we would highly recommend staying at Casa de Casal Loivos!
Thank you Bernardo for making our stay so memorable.
One cannot get a better view of the valley from any other place. Bernado, owner, is a great host and will provide great service and hospitality. The dinner they offer was very special, and took place in a private dining room..One cannot get better service in any 5 star hotel. Breakfast included was very good.
Wonderful setting looking out over the Douro Valley with brilliant care of the 16 guests by the team - led by the unique and amazing Bernardo. Huge thanks for a magical stay - it was the highlight of our trip!
This is a magnificent property with majestic views and a wonderful host who cares deeply about his guests happiness and accommodates any request to the best of his ability. The property is charming and historic and overlooks an incredible valley and view of the Douro river.
Highly recommended and hope to return one day !
This is a family run business. The Casa is treated with love and it's evident from the warm welcome from Bernardo to the communal meal and attention to detail. We only wish that we could have stayed longer.
Beautiful property with an incredible view. Bernardo and his team were very focused on making sure all guests were well taken care of. We enjoyed the optional evening group dinners quite a bit. Bernardo even made custom delicious meals for me to accolade my diet - above and beyond. We hope to return. Thank you Bernardo!
This was one of the most friendly and quaint hotels we’ve ever stayed at. The view is absolutely breathtaking and the owner, Bernardo, could not be more hospitable! We loved the family-style dinners where we got to meet other guests from all around the world. There’s nothing bad about this place — it was glorious!
The view is stunning. Relaxing around the pool and taking in the view was a very pleasant way to enjoy the beauty of the Douro region. We had a lovely dinner sitting around the grand dining table and visiting with the other guests from around d the world. Driving there and parking is difficult, however. Best to take the boat or train to Pinhao and then take a taxi to the property.
Our experience here was magnificent. The view, the comfort, the atmosphere, the whole experience. Dinner and breakfast were exceptional. I recommend this hotel over and over again.
We had a wonderful stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos! The views from the terrace are unrivaled, and we loved sitting out with a glass of wine, while soaking up the sun and the gorgeous Douro Valley from high on the hilltop. We were able to walk down to town by way of the path through the vineyards. While the hike back up took a little more effort, it was very well worth it - especially when we were rewarded with a swim in the pool. We loved how quiet and relaxing it was to be nestled in the hills above the town.
