Hotel Rural da Quinta do Silval

Nuestra estancia en este hotel rural ha sido simplemente inolvidable. Desde el primer momento, el trato ha sido exquisito, y no podemos dejar de mencionar a Beatriz, cuya atención, cercanía y calidez han convertido nuestra escapada en una experiencia mágica. Las vistas son un auténtico espectáculo, de esos que te obligan a parar y disfrutar del momento. La piscina, perfectamente integrada en el entorno, es de ensueño: tranquila, cuidada y con ese toque especial que invita a relajarse de verdad. Un lugar al que volveremos sin dudarlo. Gracias por hacer que este viaje en familia sea un recuerdo para siempre.

Our stay here was great. The owner and staff were friendly and very accommodating. Service was good, a little slow at times but understandable since they were short staffed. Buffet breakfast included and very good. Snacks and light meals available throughout the day which was nice since you are far from everything. A la carte dinner which we chose the first night but dinner is served at 8:30pm (which turned out to be closer to 9:30 because of lack of staff). Meal was very good but too late for us. It was nice to be able to choose from their daily menu for an earlier meal.

Beautiful place with stunning views Very personal service, if you are interested in wine and vineyards the tour which is offered at the property is highly recommended.

Fantastic place, sorrounded by grapes. And what a view! Sitting by the pool, looking at all the wineyards. Fantastic!

La struttura corrisponde alle foto, la vista dalla piscina è magnifica in quanto si riesce ad ammirare la valle del duoro al suo interno e tutto è andato bene anche la cena al ristorante della cantina. Molto consigliato

Very nicely located in the middle of Douro Valley vineyards, and our daughter loved the pool. We hope to come back one day and stay longer!

I have mixed feelings about Quinta do Silval. The area in Douro Valley is breathtaking, it worth a drive. But did it worth a stay? About the drive, DO NOT FOLLOW your GPS or Google Maps as you might end up like us on a very steep horse trail in-between the vines. It was our scariest drive EVER. About the stay: This is a winery, right? But there was no welcome drink, none, not a bottle, not a glass. You need to pay for every little thing. The room was rustic and comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and clean. The wine tasting is a 25 euros joke. The person presenting the wines had zero knowledge about wines (a white, a red, a late harvest). We had the sweetest wine first, and the wines were mediocre. We looked online, and yes, Quinta do Silval makes fine, expensive ports. The restaurant offered dinner for 35 euros per person, and it was, again, mediocre and expensive. No beverage included! I bought half a bottle of late harvest, and the bill was made for a full bottle. I needed 3 dialogues in 2 languages to get the right price on the bill. The breakfast was OK. But the coffee machine did not have beans until late. There is a pool, very clean, in a gorgeous surrounding. Overall, we paid almost 250 euros for both for one night here. We do not recommend this site, sorry. It is badly managed, it is bluntly an expensive tourist trap, as there is nowhere else to go.

An absolutely wonderful stay in a beautiful location. Our hosts were truly wonderful, very attentive and accommodating for our stay. Sitting at the pool, reading and spending time taking in the breathtaking views with a bottle of wine. We particularly enjoyed the tour and wine tasting session - the family are passionate about their wine!

Gorgeous spot that overlooks the Douro Valley. We hiked both days and relaxed by the pool. The dinner at the hotel was excellent.

Room was clean with beautiful views. Pool and property were nice and on-site restaurant was convenient. Bed was comfortable too. Rui was an excellent host!

The Quinta was absolutely beautiful. The woman running the hotel was warm and personable. She answered all our questions and made sure we had everything we needed. Our stay was peaceful, the room and grounds were clean and very well cared for, perfect!

The place is beautiful. Nice location. Dinner was great. Rooms very clean.

Very good welcome. Bad smell in the room but it has been changed. Dinner very expensive compared to the quality and average cost in Portugal. The view from the hotel is very beautiful

Family run, but not at all professional. Rooms are small. Beds were unclean.

Best view. Property and hotel are beautiful. Staff was amazing

This is probably my first hotel review. I felt I needed to get a review as a thank you to the exceptional service we received at this place. They could not have been more accommodating and nicer. The hotel location is a probably the best location I have ever been too; truly breathtaking. I strongly recommend it.

Oh my goodness. I don’t even know where to start. I had never been to Portugal and didn’t mean to fall in love with it. But I have fallen in love with Portugal and this property and the amazing people in it are the reason why. Most beautiful and most relaxing, welcoming place. I hope everyone reading this review goes and finds out for themselves. Most beautiful hosts, most breathtaking location, most amazing rooms, wine and meals! I hope to get back to Portugal soon and when I do, it will definitely start with a night or few at this property. Thank You for your hospitality!

Magnifique panorama

Hotel confortável, com atendimento personalizado! Ficar neste hotel foi uma ótima experiência ! De gestação familiar, o atendimento é personalizado e realizado pelos donos. Em meio à natureza, com vista para os terraços de parreiras, o ambiente é ainda mais encantador.

Great service

Great personal and attentive service by the owners, who seemed to really want you to enjoy your stay and onward travels The 'thank you for staying with us' at check-out we felt was one of the most genuine we've ever experienced.

The location of the hotel is amazing, there are views in all direction. Unfortunately, the service is very poor, the staff is rude and unfriendly. We had a three course dinner at the hotel the first night which wasn’t only expensive but the quality of the food was extremely poor and tasteless.

Nous avons pris le repas 3 services, beaucoup mais beaucoup trop cher pour ce que nous avons eu. Nous avons pris la peine de réservé nos choix de repas principal et quand nous sommes arrivés, il n’y avait plus ce qu’on avait commandé. Nous avons pris l’autre choix qui était du ragoût de porc et dans une de nos assiettes, il y avait seulement 1 morceaux de viande. Nous avons payé extrêmement cher pour pratiquement rien dans nos assiettes et ce n’était pas très bon non plus. Je n’ai pas l’habitude de faire de mauvais commentaire mais c’était vraiment trop. Nous avons aussi dû payer 2 fois l’hébergement parce qu’il ne pouvait pas prendre le paiement d’expédia et j’attend toujours pour mon remboursement 3 mois plus tard, je n’ai aucune nouvelle de l’hôtel… extrêmement déçu, je ne recommande pas du tout

The hotel was well located in the heart of the Douro Valley and we explored the villages/towns nearby. Favaios was a great visit. The hotel overall was OK for its price.

The setting and view were outstanding and the staff friendly and helpful.

Fantastic place, sorrounded by grapes. And what a view! Sitting by the pool, looking at all the wineyards. Fantastic!

Waanzinnige locatie en behulpzame medewerkers.

Hôtel simple et confortable. Personnel très gentil. Et une vue incroyable sur les vignobles du Douro

Excellent hôtel, l’endroit est magnifique, la piscine très appréciée avec les 38º. Personnel très accueillant. Petit déjeuner un peu light, dommage que les produits soient congelés et réchauffés. Bonne adresse à recommander.

The hosts were outstanding. Meal wonderful and wine superb!

What a fabulous location and property with great views by the pool (small but great especially enjoying some nice rose wine) & nothing was too much trouble for Beatriz and her team even tho it was very busy. The food was delicious & even tho a fixed menu, we loved it all and a great breakfast. Shame we were only staying one night.

Très bonne table, menu réconfortant préparé maison !
